I'm struggling to understand the signal chain or antenna architecture here. If those two MAX chips are 2829s this would be 2x2 mimo per tile but I'm not super familiar with that product line and the PCB layout looks like a 4x4 se

I'm gonna say something bold here: if you're doing anything remotely edgy with a drone (read: you're not a 107 on contact with a mega corp) learn to build them, don't buy a DJI. Pilots are getting hammered because of Re

Yeah if anything this recession feels demand driven rather than labor replacement driven. Nobody wants to do capex or buy things when everyone is telling them they're going to get replaced with jpeg-for-text so they aren't. As a

Maybe I'm out of the loop but what is everyone doing with banking apps on their phones that's so essential. I see this argument all the time but it's baffling to me.

Their entire raison d'être is "We unite because we're being attacked". If there's no attack there's no purpose [to receive US money].

Currently an absolute shit load of C17s landing in Germany after leaving the PG region. I guess we know which country finally caved and let the US use them for whatever fresh conquest this is.

Be advised, the standard rp2040 split board design paradigm has extreme ESD issues and will degrade and fail with time if you live in a dry climate.

In a space that's being taken over by cloud shit where you have no privacy, FreeCAD is one of the last good CAD engineering tools left, let alone being FOSS.

I think the internet needs to get much more comfortable with protest through noncompliance. We need more stuff hosted through obfuscated channels (Tor, I2C, etc) and more user friendly access to those networks.

If you have a phone in your hand the wifi isn't what's surveiling you. At least with wifi routers it's much easier to control what software is running on the device relative to an iOS or android device. As someone in the RF

That's the thing though, they can't, at least until the very recent advent of EVs. We used to have similar vehicles (the old 80s/90s ford ranger, tacoma, etc) but they were regulated out of existence by CAFE standards. Even

Also, because of CAFE standards, the US can't even attempt to create its own competing light trucks as everything needs to be fucking massive to maintain the emission exemptions. The thinking was it would make cars more efficient but i

In the summer you could theoretically station-keep a few of these over a city for a few hours at least with proper wind and lift gas planning. Could be enough to fly a stripped town T1000e or similar meshtastic relay during a natural disas

That balloon was several orders is magnitude heavier, pico balloons pose no risk. Note that there are operators running balloons several orders bigger still, like Aerostar. They're essentially flying mid size satellites

When you invest you get shares. Shares come with votes. Do you think these people are voting to make your life better or do you think they're voting to arbitrarily raise prices to increase the value of their shares?

ADSB sites aren't any sort of official thing. You can send whatever data you want to them. Just because it's there doesn't mean it ever went over the air as an ADSB broadcast.
