I recited this to my wife Cathy.
She said "Those are three problems". I said "What part of 'off by one error' did you fail to understand?"
I am resting comfortably and expected to make a full recovery.

Hey! Any geniuses here know what's up with this?
Wired it up, and w/ antenna, I get a massive buzz when I key the mic. Is that a ground issue with the mic cable or something internal in the radio?
I bought it mostly as set-dressing in the studio, but was playing with it today.

Looking at CDC guildlines, this means it is time for every American to shove a paper mask into their asshole.
If you see someone alone in their car with a paper mask in their asshole, try to remember they are doing it to keep you safe as well as themselves.

I always assumed people were just reading too many star wars books when they came up with these.

Today is the last day to benefit from my spite.
The first two Quintus Fox books are still free over on that one site. I'm just under 300 free ebooks given away so far. I'd like to hit 500.
Why?
Don't know.
But I'm sure it'll all work out.
So if you liked Firefly but always thought it would be funnier if Jayne had been in charge, these are right up your alley.

Someone pulls out a knife and every white dude in a 500-foot radius pulls out their knife and wants to talk knives.
Just posting this makes me want to pull out my knife.

Proud to introduce new legislation that will eliminate the remaining NFA taxes on machine guns and destructive devices.
Taxing our constitutional rights is unacceptable and unconstitutional, it’s past time we put an end to it!

I loathe to make the slippery slope argument but they're not going to stop at requiring you to monitor your 3D printer so you don't print guns.
If they can claim simply because something is in computer code that is not considered free speech, then your PC is prime real estate for the government to spy on.
This is like asking word processors to report everything back to the government so that they can make sure you're not writing something illegal.
"But I don't do illegal things," I hear you say. Not yet you don't. That day is coming.

This 3Dprinting law fare is a serious problem. Not just for myself but for other basic rights in the US around free speech.
What if our speech is not considered free if “code” delivers it? Could our speech online be deemed unprotected because the machine used code to send it? Thats the kind of wild implications that can happen from general wide sweeping laws that are happening right now.
3Dprinting and code is not the problem - just like electricity didn’t spawn demons in your house or that video games made people violent when they grew up.
You Can’t slap a lock on a making device and expect those wishing to do harm to not just pry it off. They have bad intentions. A lockout will not stop ghost gs. This trajectory means good innocent people and a whole industry of manufacturing IN AMERICA will be affected. 3 states in the country trying to pass laws like this.
You’re hurting innocent peoples livelihood by passing judgements and laws that are not solving the problem of illegal firearms. It’s like doing articulate surgery with a hammer.
