Same for me. I asked on Mastodon and people were saying it doesn’t work for them anymore. Very strange.

You should check out Ham Radio Crash Cpurse on YouTube. Lots of great info there.

I’ve been considering a switch since my instance has a lot of issues with overloading. I like that yours doesn’t censor words. Does lemm.ee have issues with too many people joining and overloading the server?

We have a similar one here in the US. People think if you go outside when it’s too cold, you’ll get sick.

Damn, it looks like it still got you.

Let’s see if that gets filtered.

Edit: looks like the curse filter Broke that link. Just google “mtg called Biebert a little” and you’ll find it.

Most activity, I’ve seen here: !amateurradio@lemmy.ko4abp.com but there’s a lemmy bug that’s not showing a bunch of posts. That should be resolved soon.

These are good cheaper radios (The price has gone up a bit)

They are fine for starting out with, but you’ll probably want to upgrade soon. There are better radios for around $75 if you can afford it.

Ham radio! It’s relaxing. My favorite activity is to take my portable gear to parks and operate Parks on the Air.

Using lemmy is well worth the $5 per month I give them.

I have photos of the interior. Let’s see if this is the one.

I moved further north and I miss it so much!

It’s near enough the big city that I can go do fun things when I want, but it’s quiet here and not a lot of traffic.

They’re pretty much polar opposite ideologies.

I actually just started this. What’s wrong with it?

I’ll begrudgingly vote for Biden again. I’d prefer someone further left, but I desperately want to prevent the Rs from winning.

Gentoo

But the forgiven PPP loans are A-OK, right? Fuck this shit.

I was on the fence about it until the Spez AMA. Then, I decided I’d be leaving on the 30th.

Then, I had a user call me “fucking stupid” for supporting a sub shutting down, and that was the final straw for me. I had seen how friendly people on Lemmy are and this showed me how toxic Reddit is by comparison. So I immediately nuked all my comments & posts and deleted my account. This was around two weeks ago and I’ve been much happier here.

How truly scary is this movie? It has been on my watch list for a long time, but I haven’t had the guts to watch it.
