This evening I experienced an unpleasant pile-on during a brief visit to BlueSky. Someone was saying that people on Mastodon don't get jokes and you can't even quote-tweet. I replied saying that Masto has had quote tweets for about 6 mths whereas BSky still doesn't have an edit function.
Then about 6 of them got really nasty and I quickly blocked the lot of them.
I guess it's hard for US folks to grasp that this is a multi-lingual place and not the locker room of t…

If you imagine #NYC police as Cartman (from South Park) doing the whole "respect mah authoritah!" bit, the behavior of the NYPD around the snowballs incident makes complete sense. It's not that anyone was hurt, nor was there any damage, but their fragile egos just can't handle not having their authority respected. Even when they do completely dumb shit like wandering into the m…

It's February. It's only five months until ARRL/RAC Field Day!
Last year, I modified Morse Walker to support practicing running CW FD.
I've since done a couple other modifications; sadly I haven't heard back from the author on PRs, so if you are thinking you'd like to brush off your Morse code to participate in Field Day, my fork is still your best option:

Anyone else with in-ear phones that noticed that Jimmi H sings hard right in purple haze? So, it's
