I think about accepting the challenge and boldly solder SMD where I’ve never soldered before: Doing the Quansheng UV-K5 4732 addon PCB modification myself 🙈...
Why are so many people ok with a world where you have no say in what your employer does, and they can do whatever they want to suit their bottom line?...
I have old Facebook and Twitter accounts, maybe some others. I’m old so there’s a MySpace account out there. But I’ve mostly been using reddit the last decade or so, and have migrated to Lemmy. Now, Lemmy is the only social media i use. Recent news got me thinking about this question.

As always “better” becomes… ehhhhh I want more. I want to stick with an SBC because of power consumption on a box that I’m going to leave running 24/7. So...
So I usually browse the internet at random and sometimes stumble upon some interesting games. Today as I was going to sleep however, I remember I saw a game that I cannot for the life of me find the name again. Not even in my search history (as I regularly wipe those).
