I live in a city where “people” sometimes throw around sausages with razors for dogs to eat and die. So there’s that.

Seriously, nothing bad about getting other opinions. Internet is just people. Well, not anymore (AI), but it probably doesn’t apply to Lemmy much.

- Comment on Lenovo is removing the iconic Trackpoint with its new ThinkPad X9 3 weeks ago:
Welp, that was my only reason to specifically get a ThinkPad. I got to use one at school and quickly got used to it. I wanted to keep that experience, so I bought a ThinkPad. I’ve used the TrackPad precisely 0 times, I have it permanently disabled. If I run out of space for stickers, I’ll put them over the TrackPad as well.
I’d say the TrackPoint, once you get used to it, becomes an extension of the finger.
Only annoying thing is the occasional drift.

I personally don’t like the idea of maximum age. Someone can very well be mentally OK even in their 90s.
Rather a mandatory psychological evaluation.

Do you have an example?
The only time I can imagine someone asking someone else to smile is when taking photos.
- Comment on SSTV from ISS - My 1st attempt - Series 23: 2024 holidays 4 weeks ago:
A dipole will do just fine.
And with RTL-SDR you could also receive NOAA APT and Meteor LRPT on 137MHz with the same dipole.
I keep using that damn extendable dipole for everything xD It’s very portable, fits into a pocket.

That download button on top is to save the image without loosing quality, just in case.
Did you just use speaker + microphone or cable?Nevermind, there’s no headphone symbol. - Submitted 4 weeks ago to amateur_radio@lemmy.radio | 8 comments

- Comment on Holiday SSTV Experiment from the International Space Station 5 weeks ago:
I noticed you have the RTL-SDR blog dipole. I’ve used that for NOAA-APT and Meteor LRPT in the past just fine. 120 degree V shape helps with impedance.
Handheld you can also adjust for elevation. Half wavelength (around 1m) above ground will work for most passes, but bringing it lower increases gain towards the top (held horizontally).
I never learned NEC, so I can’t prove it to you.
- Comment on Which side of this dipole is ground? 5 weeks ago:
You do seem to be right. It should not matter in theory, but it may be better for the one connected to the center (right on this image) to be up.
For vertical polarization, in theory it does not matter which way around you orient the antenna as long as it’s vertical. However in practice, you may get slightly better results by having the element connected to the center coax conductor pointing UP.

The person you replied to said “female” though. As far as I know, “Man”/“Woman” is on the gender side while “Male”/“Female” is on the sex side, based purely on things like reproductive organs, chromosomes and hormones.
Although taking all three into account may just make it hard to determine. But it does imply that “male woman” and “female man” are also valid combinations.

- Comment on I've noticed a lot of UK job applications use the American MM/DD/YYYY date format and some also say "resume" instead of CV. Does that annoy you if you're British? 1 month ago:
I am from Europe. About the dates, for me it depends.
In personal things, I generally use the American date format because I got used to it. And when going through a list of things month first is often nicer to look at.When giving something to someone else, I use date compatible with RFC3339 and ISO8601 standards (YYYY-MM-DD).
Quick comparison between the two: ijmacd.github.io/rfc3339-iso8601/But people have questioned me about both, since DD. MM. [YY]YY is basically the only format used in my country, but I don’t like it.

I mean, your reaction was nothing but a physical response, so I wouldn’t say so.
As long as you don’t do it on purpose, no, not weird.
