Is the AM transmitter down for
@NewsTalk780KOH ?

@DJSnM There's a reasonable argument for this: Going from sub 2 Mbit/sec to something on the order of 10-20 Mbit/sec is much more meaningful than going from 100 Mbit/sec to 10000 Mbit/sec. Subsidies and incentives going to the latter can't go to the former.

@sleepy_devo And the left-wingers who 5 minutes ago wanted higher gas prices to curtail consumption for the benefit of the environment and emissions who are now complaining about higher fuel prices and the cost of living impacts they have?

@USArmy Looks like direction finding gear...

Honored and thrilled to receive the Upstate Legacy Fellowship Award. Mighty thanks to the California Arts Council and Nevada County Arts for all their work in curating this incredible and important program. Congrats to my fellow Fellows!!

@DJSnM I do remember the signs that used to be at the ferry terminal. The idea of having a nuclear weapons ordinance seems slightly less odd when you remember the Hercules part of Nike-Hercules.

@JonahDispatch Can they receive ACME packages there?

@CathyYoung63 Clearly having some paragraph separations is good, therefore more paragraph separations is more better?

@DJSnM @CJHandmer It used to be a bit faster... But notably the Daylight needed helpers up Cuesta Grade.

@sleepy_devo Congress doesn't vote on every single grant. They delegate a lot of (perhaps too much of) the on-the-ground decision making to the executive. Congress passed a law funding a set of priorities, not mandating that these particular grants be funded.

@DJSnM @blueorigin I wonder how many Scottish trad tune names I could get away with reusing before someone noticed...

@possumsqueezer @lauriewired That's more or less the reaction of some of our teachers at fiddle camp about the current crop of carbon composite instruments. Yes, they're loud and powerful, but the timbre and response is unfamiliar to them.

@lauriewired In the last 300 years the cello has gotten: The endpin, modern 'French' bows with a tensioning screw, steel and synthetic strings, the Block Strap, and various efforts at carbon composite instruments and Bows (see Luis And Clark, Forte3D, CodaBow, Arcus, Mezzo Forte).

@sleepy_devo Median real wages are up: https://t.co/e8ovCk9BBD Even in Canada: https://t.co/Z2nF5ACBJv

So people are earning more yet having fewer children.

@JonahDispatch Eventual consistency is eventual?

@antiprowhatever @notch There's a whole world of folks doing this for indoor training for road cycling. See Zswift and its competitors.

PSA: If you miss the tax deadline, there’s always the “I’m trapped in outer space” extension.

Yes - this actually happened. Astronaut Jack Swigert forgot to file his taxes before the Apollo 13 mission.

But it turns out the IRS offers a little grace when you’re 200,000 miles from Earth in a crippled spacecraft.

Swigert later won election to Congress as a Republican - but died of cancer just days before taking office.

RIP to a true American explorer.

@ThomasOfStBede @natattack52 @stardragon45 @thechosenberg Tell me you're not in the software trades without telling me you're not in the software trades. Every commercial project I've ever worked on has involved some degree of having to get new employees up-to-speed on the tech stack and architecture of system we're working on.

@hiredbygod @xwanyex Someone who crosses the border illegally is by definition not a citizen and outside of fraud or some very local elections in some places doesn't get a vote at all.
