I think Field Day is more of a US thing. It is really setup around an official contest put on by the ARRL, which gives extra points for operating off-grid, or portable. There are no extra points for international (DX) contacts during Field

They had some wins with the Tegra line... Tegra 3 was pretty big in tablets and phones a few years back. Not sure how well it's going currently. But much better than mobile Atoms for sure.

It's a stereogram, you have to cross your eyes (or relax to infinity, I could never get that right) to see it. In the one linked, it shows 'John Smith is responsible' pretty clearly. Like the Magic Eye books... but in text. W

I had an idea like this a bit ago, where essentially you would dump your tiny (PGP) message in a giant noise haystack at a random, or generated offset. These messages would get rolled up into a big torrent that gets served every so often. T

In Firefox, you can click the little book icon to turn on better readability. (Reader View) It definitely improves the layout, you can copy that design basically. Smaller content width, bigger fonts. Also, thanks for putting this together!!
