AM antennae are simple affairs -- usually just a stick of carbon with a tiny spool of wire around it. Seems like you could just relocate it to an end of the vehicle and put a bit of shielding around it. If that doesn't do it, then the

This is pretty cool. Great artwork too. Building edge DBs on top of S3 or R2 had interested me for a long time. Thanks for writing it! Update: bug in redirection: https://starbasedb.com/blog/blog/blog/blog&#x2

In the U.S., civil cases are litigated by opposing attorneys in front of a judge, often without a jury, which differs from criminal cases led by prosecutors. Prosecutors (e.g., local DAs, AGs, DOJ) handle criminal trials, not civil ones lik
