Just learned a cool word: illfare.
There's "welfare", right? So it makes sense to have "illfare".
I learned about this from the preface to J. A. Hobson's book "Work and Welfare": https://archive.org/details/workwealthhumanv0…

History repeats itself more than it should.
If you think we cannot get out from under these ghouls, then all I can say is we did it several times before.
We should be getting good at it by now.
The closest Trump's gonna get to heaven is on an airplane.

The Radio Image Framing Protocol (RIFP) 1.0 is an experimental, extensible standard for sending images over low-rate radio links.
The default rifp-cpfsk-4800 profile uses binary continuous-phase FSK and can be deployed around 433.92 MHz where local regulation permits it. RIFP itself is not tied to 433 MHz or to FSK and can be used in any frequency bands.
I'm still exploring various low-cost options for a device that can receive and display images on an e-ink screen in emergency areas or similar environments.
