Not to be confused with transcoding, which is important to viewing media.

When was the last time you even tried to live without buying anything built by exploited labor, abusive extraction processes, and run by oligarchs? You can't. It would maybe look like a hunter-gatherer or maybe a primitive pastoral life. It is literally impossible for any of us to be having this discussion in this medium without some of exploitation and/or abuse. There is no moral consumption under capitalism, hell probably even impossible under any globalism.

So fuck right the fuck off with your sanctimonious bullshit.

In some countries (such as the USA), sending encrypted communications via Amateur Radio is illegal, but how likely will the government actually enforce it, and how severe would the consequences be? in c/[email protected]

OP asked about amateur radio bands, which are mutually exclusive of 802.11 bands.

Got a source on that? According to Backblaze, Seagate seems to be doing okay (Backblaze Drive Stats for Q1 2024 https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze-drive-stats-for-q1-2024/), especially given how many models are in operation.

Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording. It uses a laser to heat the drive platter, allowing for higher areal density and increased capacity.

I grew up in NY. The gun control laws were draconian 45 years ago. I can't imagine they have become more lax since I departed the state 30 years ago.

My misguided, ignorant younger self would absolutely assume self-blame.

Moving out at 16 to escape my abusive home life (after the second time I was hospitalized for injuries from being beaten)
Getting out of homelessness twice and putting together a career
Finally finding the correct set of tools in combination with the right therapists to un-fuck my maladaptive behaviors—bad templates that resulted in me repeatedly choosing bad partners as well as sabotaging relationships with a handful of truly beautiful people

YSK Your Rights Around Dealing with Funerals and the Death Industry (funerals.org)

Given the recent front page posts about Vanessa Guillen's funeral fuckery, you should know what your rights are surrounding disposition and treatment of the recently deceased. My late mother-in-law Lisa Carlson devoted much of her life and professional career advocating for consumer rights in the death industry.

The death industry is very slimy and relies on high pressure sales tactics when people are grieving. Don't let them. KYR!

Suggestions on Shimano Gear? (lemmy.world)

submitted 10 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I am getting a killer discount on three Shimano rods and three reels. I will be targeting pelagic fishing for food while under sail, and some surf fishing. I'm targeting fish like salmon, tuna, mackerel, trevally/jack, and whatever good-eating fish are in the open ocean and surf. So... three of those rods and reels to rule them all. We will have two downriggers on our sailboat, if that's a factor for selection. Thank you in advance for any insights and guidance you can provide!
