You realize that the Fediverse or Threads or bsky could be the new Twitter by next week, right? If a moderate handful of major celebrities and their sponsors got together and jumped to one of these, it would start an avalanche.

@blacklight I'm guessing it was their customers who really paid.

@M0CUV I tried setting up 1200 VHF packet back in 1995 or so, and it was so disappointing and painful that I did not return to digital for over 15 years.

@geekmomprojects The "public by default" setting for Venmo is puzzling in terms of privacy & security rights. I guess the banks & credit card companies are ok with it?

There is zero shame in buying preassembled boards, modules, jacks with presoldered wires attached or anything like that. Or kits with all the surface mount work done for you.

There's a lot of great options for constructing things from modules and cable harnesses out there these days, and if it's the easiest way to build the project you're envisioning, go for it!

This is especially true if you are unable to solder or do fine detail work well!

At the end of the day, you still made something, and it's yours.

(Also, if you think I solder all of my own connectors and surface mount stuff, you'd be wrong)

Yes, this is a subtoot based on DMs and conversations that have happened over the past few months where folks have commented to me that they don't feel like they're doing real hardware hacking because they're not designing their own PCBs or soldering every wire or something.

Just go out there and make things!

@recursive @abraxas3d @Stormgren There are also hacker spaces with mills and CNC gear, and people there who may happy to do machining for others.

@Stormgren totally agreed, and there is simply not enough time for a normal person to do everything from scratch.

@Stormgren @recursive @abraxas3d This is where I'm at with uwaves. I built a 10 GHz amp from a kit a while back and that was a good learning experience at the next level down. One barrier is having the right lab gear for hacking on uwave circuits. It's a significant investment in older tech (or very expensive new tech), and gaining specialized knowledge to use it. Slowly but surely...

@adamjsy Actually that seems like a reasonable price. I'm seeing $140-$400 for name brands.

Troubleshooting a Tek spectrum analyzer PSU. Gonna need a bigger boat. I mean, an ESR meter.
Any recommendations on a budget ESR meter? 🤔
