@mcdanlj I'd read that spiral flute taps are weaker and more likely to break for small taps, so I haven't tried them yet. Thanks for the pointers!

Metalwork for the linear amp is going GREAT. First I drilled the wrong hole sizes for the heat sink, then broke two 4-40 taps. Will figure out how to extract these then try a thread forming tap instead of a cutting tap.

@skykiss Imagine being such a bad billionaire that you end up under the thumb of foreign dictators, instead of living in near perfect freedom.

Anyway, something good -- found a building full of electronics stores in Singapore a couple of weeks ago. So much stuff you don't see on shelves in the US or Australia now, all kinds of niches.

Location is Sim Lim Tower.

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?
