@jeweljk “So they made them yellow” 💛

@VictorVescovo And at a survey sqft/$ ratio probably an order of magnitude less!

@VictorVescovo I am a big fan of little ships punching above their weight. When you add in cost effective LEO comms these days, they become such capable platforms.

@tomhardytech @flightradar24 Tracking using trilateration - I see the same when tracking acoustic pingers under the water - timing errors in the receivers due to multipath or incorrect ping syncing causes gross XY errors.

[Rodney Thomson @oh_rhomson]

@obrun26 @Garmin @GarminFitness Exactly same here FR255 with iPhone 13. Phone finds and pairs Bluetooth immediately. But the Connect app never finds it

[Rodney Thomson @oh_rhomson]

@zachbussey Yup, we've seen 1500+ "views" when being on front page, but if you tally up the number of names in chat - no difference.

Last FP slot I'd say for a 4 hours stream we maybe got 8-10 new chatters specifically from front page. Maybe that converted to 1-2 new subs and/or some bits.

The Mental Health EP is being released in two days 🧡

Pre-order a copy here - https://t.co/Hrtek0nqyO

It will also show up on Spotify, YouTube Music, iTunes and wherever you find your music when released.

A huge amount of love, heartache, growth and soul went into this one 🧡

@meriamber Oh… I wonder if this might be the surprise parcel that I got a tracking number for yesterday :D I have no idea what else it might be!

@Larawithabird Or as Antony Green called him… “Peter Dick… er Peter Dutton, Dickson seat”

[Rodney Thomson @oh_rhomson]

@Trainboy100 @flightradar24 Your idea isn’t stupid. Almost the identical thing is done with satellites fitted with ADSB receivers and solar panels and they just ‘float’ out in space.

@Bluestar888 I eventually grew lazy and just hid the stereo face under my seat :D

[Kristi Kates @KristiKates]

I've really liked this lovely Olivia Rodrigo song for a while, and finally did the thing!

New YouTube cover, enjoy! 💜

@IntelANZ A P2-350 with 64MB RAM on a 440bx motherboard. That sweet sweet 100MHz FSB. This was the second best Intel chip you could get at a time. I still am amazed at how much my parents sacrificed for us to have it. Maybe it paid off, because I’m a happy software engineer today?

[Rodney Thomson @oh_rhomson]

@shanselman @bobstelling After your 2021 video, I updated my cursor to large and purple. It is a godsend. The downside? On an unmodified computer I'm even less able to see the tiny white cursor now - the brain has been retrained!

[Kristi Kates @KristiKates]

New blog post: Ultrasonic investigations in shopping centres https://t.co/y0vNWxkgOj

[Rodney Thomson @oh_rhomson]

@windyoona There is so much information in that train arrival signal. Lots of repetition. Relating to number of cars / windows perhaps? Fascinating!

[Rodney Thomson @oh_rhomson]

@imfallfromgrace ferry to Manly from Circular Quay is also great

[Rodney Thomson @oh_rhomson]

@imfallfromgrace I'm not from Sydney, but as a tourist I loved doing the Bondi to Coogee walk along the coast.
