last time rationalists tried to touch medical field we got metamed

rtl-sdr uses the same chip as dvb-t tuners, but the everything else part is completely different

in unrelated news, it looks like drought in hungary got less severe and they started up their NPP again, now with 3 out of 4 blocks running (one of them ran the entire time, for some time at reduced load)

LG would be South Korea. Maybe it contacts tracks on PCB below and it’s some kind of semi-conductive rubber

lol as if they could plan this far forward

cofnas got suspended for being a racist dipshit

times high education got wind of it all over nine months before cofnas did, but didn’t publish because of SLAPP possibility https://www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/i-was-reported-police-over-arday-case-i-was-just-doing-my-job https://www.timeshighereducation.com/opinion/jason-arday-many-things-can-be-possible-same-time i read it as multifaceted shitshow

cancer is in large part an old people disease, if you avoided dying of cholera you’re more likely to die of something else. also now there’s a lot of people who were exposed to carcinogens decades back, and we got better at treating pr preventing some other common causes of death like stroke or heart disease

that shortened link is just redirect to https://dair-institute.org/projects/tescreal/

this is how antibodies work

it would be about as reliable either way

that’s no problem at all, systems like that are in use

It’s easier to freeze water than to cool rock borehole

you can selfhost an instance from it

Saudis parked fuckload of money in ai startups

methane cracker? that’s a very unusual unit that outputs hydrogen and carbon. i could find info about opening of ethane cracker in 2025, but that’s for plastics, next to shutdown of another similar unit

there might be something in there, any short question about SPPS devolves into gratuitous nonsense mashing together standard peptide coupling conditions, sometimes from three different approaches or more (publicly available from reagent suppliers, there are many variants so most of info repeats) even when it’s not the right tool to use. The more obscure reagent or use case, the faster it devolves into word salad, even if there’s clear analogy to more common one. Which, to be fair, is to be expected

Before i hit usage limit, two different chatbots happily devised schemes for ESD protection for zener diode (it’ll be fine without, zener diodes are used for this)

on balance i’ve been banned on various sites that think i’m not human enough, permanently from mouser and intermittently from a couple of others including startpage (one day total). i guess i’m catching strays because of residential proxies. this must be this disruption ai boosters were waiting for

there are photos of 16 different radios and a couple of antennas, but the one in thumbnail is Elecraft KH-1

I see elsewhere on lemmy that it’s old reddit that gets loginwalled, not sneerclub specifically

either way still works for me

It’s up for you to decide. On U/VHF you can talk to other people directly (locally) like on HF. But you can also do things that HF can’t provide, or provides with limitations, like talk through repeater (uncommon on HF), or to ISS, or through satellites (HF bounces from ionosphere) or do longer distance communications from mountaintops, or do image transmission or packet radio (HF has less bandwidth). On receive only you can also download NOAA weather satellite images, or whatever else data are emitted by them. You can make your own repeater from two baofengs. HF gets affected by space weather, U/VHF is not, and we’re entering solar minimum. 6m will take you far further than 2m but it’s usually bundled with HF radios

On higher end there’s also moonbounce, but it’s not in the budget category

e: there’s 50 things you can do with SDR only (many on U/VHF) https://blinry.org/50-things-with-sdr/
