Not long ago I stumbled upon the RNode (I think on this website?) as a cheap, long range transmitter that should be able to easily retool for solar power. However a lot of the radio technology quickly gets out of my wheelhouse. May be showing my ass here, but wouldn’t you need a license to operate one of these?

its trivial and happening way more than you’d think

people were doing this with human cashiers decades ago

covid broke me. i constantly am grappling with how many people have left us since 2020. how they should still be here. how many more we will lose. the rest of us that very well could suffer from a shorter, needlessly challenging life. all because a small group of selfish removed couldn’t sacrifice a month or two in quarantine.

maybe they just didn’t understand the risk. for someone not informed i could see them brushing it off. i’m not sure who to blame exactly. i dont understand enough about humanity and the world to say definitively. was it the high priests of capital? the social fascists that refused to cancel their fancy parties? what about the fundamentalists that believe covid is a sign of the impending end of the world and thus hastened it forward? or is it me, who after spending the last 3 years avoiding covid, got infected because i just had to go see that show?

outside of a miracle cure and effective treatment for long covid, i have a hard time seeing things improving for humanity in my lifetime. anyone who has foresight seems to be on the same page. all talking about it does seem to do is depress the people around me - even those i know who agree. society seems to be warping and distorting rapidly to the point where i believe the average human life could become completely and unrecognizably cruel within a generation or two.

i was just last week ranting about how horrible the denver airport is oh how i loathe it so much. plane travel is already terrible but to have to follow it up with navigating this demonic labyrinth makes me completely believe all the rumors about the airport being a shrine to Satan
