@Elizafox For UK radio amateurs, you can submit complaints to Ofcom via this web form specific for amateur radio. It's the form for "interference", but applies to misuse in general.

https://ofcomlive.my.salesforce-sites.com/formentry/SitesFormAmateurRadio

Reminder: if you get harassed or get called a slur on amateur radio, record the content, date, time, frequency, modulation, and method. For US callsigns, submit it to https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/

Harassment is not acceptable in amateur radio and is illegal.

Read an article about diversity and inclusion in ham radio and ohhh the comments, I'm so glad these people will be dead in my lifetime.

Reminder kids, wherever you see the word "woke" replace it with a slur and you'll know exactly what they really mean.

Can anyone recommend an open source asset management system that allows for assets to be placed inside other assets? e.g. I can put an object with an asset number inside a tote that also has an asset number, and then put the tote on a van that also has an asset number. That way, I will know which assets are where.

Looking to potentially get a VR Chat avatar of Akai sorted - anyone got any recommendations for artists, or if anyone would want to give her a shot? It wouldn't be for free, of course - heavens no - just no idea where to look for this kind of thing!

How to check if you are talking to a bot and not a real person 🤔 #collected #tech #humour #ai #bot #funny

So the first thing was my hyperfocused toots from yesterday about the building used in the intro of the show, the second was being informed that Noel Fielding’s new show has a scene where The Dark Knight’s helmet is on display, which made me SO excited and happy that it’s still around!!!

I really wish that I could own it, more than anything!!

"Claims that the majority of the UK’s housing stock is not suitable for a heat pump appear to be [lies].

Research published in 2022 found that properties including Victorian terrace houses and 1960s flats could have a heat pump successfully installed.

A 2021 study found: “Homes can convert to electric heating at a cost far lower than the accepted wisdom” and “with no threat to comfort”. Additionally, greenhouse gas emissions would “fall very dramatically as a result”."

I got some Pride-themed art from ak4neh on Twitter! https://x.com/ak4neh

I was going to go with the pan flag on Bridle, but decided to use the bi flag instead as it's similar to Twilight's colors, hehe. :)

The cheque said “AMOUNT: two dollars and forty cents BEING FOR: classified ad”, rounded block letters in green ink amid the printed prompts. My mother never wrote cursive. “Thanks Mum“ I said, “I’ll pay you back from my paper round money on Saturday”

“No need” she said, “I’m going out; if you have the ad ready I’ll post it for you.”

I folded the cheque and the form I’d clipped from the newspaper. It had been tricky writing on the newsprint with a pen “HOME COMPUTER Amstrad CPC6128 with monitor, printer and external 5.25 inch drive. Original software plus over 30 games. $425. Ph 551806”.

After Mum left I went to my room and booted up my new PC, with its Extra Beige system unit and Different Beige monitor. I patted my 6128’s screen sitting on the floor under my desk. “Sorry old girl, no room to keep you but I’ll find you a nice home”.

Before I even got Kings Quest loaded the doorbell rang.

The visitor was a woman with amazing purple hair, and cat ears. “Hi, she said, I’m Kit, here about the Amstrad”

“But…it’s not even posted yet. And I only listed a phone number!”

“Never mind that”, she smiled, bouncing on her toes “do you still have it?”

I nodded, too flabbergasted to speak

“Four twenty five, right?” she said, thrusting an envelope at me, “here’s five hundred, keep the change. Now, what I want-“

“Wait, what are these things”. I’d opened the envelope to find five slippery rectangles of plastic bearing “100” in large letters, coloured variously green and yellow with a transparent region in the middle. “These aren’t-“

“Oh shazbot!” my visitor said, snatching the envelope back. “Bee Arr Bee”. Then she vanished, with an electric ZZZZAAPP sound.

ZZZAAAPP. She was back, holding out a sheaf of five grey paper rectangles, the recently introduced but rarely seen $100 notes, thick linen paper with subtle colours - easy to photocopy and colour in with textas, I’d seen on TV. I held the note up to the sky to see the metal thread and watermark. “Are these real?”

“Trust me,” she said, “they were hard to find but totally legit.”

“Okay, uh do you want to see the computer running?”. I felt like *I* was running to catch up with this interaction.

“No need” she grinned. “I’m giving it to you. Box it up and stash it in Mum’s roof. You’ll be glad to have it when you’re older.”

“Wh…what?”

“Do they speak english in what?” she muttered half to herself?

“what?”

“Exactly! Right on script”. She poked me in the chest. “You’ll be alright kid. Forget about the ‘strad for a couple of decades, OK?”

She ran hand through her brilliant purple hair, vibrating like she was having the best time ever. “Oh yeah, you’ll need these”. She tugged at her cat ears and i realized they were a headband. She handed me the band with its two ears. “One last thing“—a suddenly serious look—“*listen* *to* *your* *dreams*. You’ll know when it’s time. See ya!”

ZZZAAPPPP

I spent the $500 but I kept the ears.
