Morning #Nostr
My brain did a 404 error this morning at 4:04 am and sleep was no longer found...
It was finally their big day yesterday as we had the combined #birthday #party for the boys at Ninja Nation in Spokane. 25 kids made for quite the mass of little bodies but they all had a blast and it was the first party for our school group at Ninja Nation. We have punch cards for the boys so I will be taking them this winter and will get a punch card for myself as I need to work on my strengthening for climbing this next summer.

Thankfully they won and didn't get blown out like the night before.

The boys had a blast at the hockey game last night and I feel bad for the people seated below them as the boys tried hard to lose their voices screaming... The Chiefs won 3-0 and as we left the arena the first snow of the season was falling. Got home in time for the boys to go out and play in it whiloe I watched the REAL fights of the UFC. Boxing is such a joke anymore and these two nights were blatant proof.
Today is their combined #birthday party at Ninja Nation and there will be at least 30 kids there for it....

Teach a kid to only buy and they will be a slave, Teach a kid to butcher and they will feed themselves and others for life
YES! I WAS ENTERTAINED!! Thank you #UFC for a REAL show and exciting fight night and #Trump & #Elon looked to be enjoying themselves.
A boxer is a punching bag, a UFC fighter is a warrior.
I'd be very curious to know. There is a very light awareness in the local ham groups of mesh but I want to get that to be a strong awareness and push to build

#Meshtastic Coverage Estimator
This is insanely useful! I just found it deep in the github repos for meshtastic
and have some serious goals for the region. If I can manage to get a HUGE node on top of Mt. Spokane it would cover a 100 mile radius. Is that kind of hardware even available to handle potentially thousands of connections?

Got a lot done yesterday after the pre dawn grain run. The #greenhouse soil is now fully coated and ready for tilling. Got the quote for the HDD repair.... I'll be doing it myself thank you very much. I split all the cured rounds of wood I have and stacked it all into the wood cover which looks pretty badass now. We got a half hour storm that rolled through just our area in the afternoon and spit a bit of ice and a good bit of rain. This evenig we will be going to the Spokane Chiefs #hockey game in town.

Well well well, this is quite interesting. I'm very curious just how easy this is. If this could be done on a small scale safely then home kits could be made. The key part is:
The trick to their method: Instead of leeching with an excess of citric acid like conventional methods, they use a relatively small amount. Because of this, only two of the three acid groups in the citric acid dissociate.
The released protons break up the lithium-oxygen bonds, releasing lithium ions from the NCM into the solution. Bonds between the other metal ions and the oxygen ions are also broken. Nickel, cobalt, and manganese enter the solution, where they are bound into stable complexes by the citric acid anions.
The third acid group of the citric acid then reacts with the hydroxyl group on the same molecule. A ring closure occurs in an intramolecular esterification (Fischer lactonization) reaction. This facilitates the reaction of the intermediates with each other to make a polyester, which gels into solid particles that can easily be separated out. Energy consumption and CO2 emissions are significantly less than in conventional hydrometallurgical recycling processes.

Yesterday morning was a bit rough for my little man who was a STUD at the #dentist for his tooth pull. No numbing gel just straight to the needle, then the tooth had outward angled roots shaped like fans that seriously hurt despite the numbness. Healthy does of Ibuprofen and he was good to go to school.
I'm in love with my new keyboard. Finally quality! The SSD is slowly getting repopulated with my backed up data but it is taking forever. I got the cooler cleaned out of the trash produce but was surprised to still have a big tub of celery that is good.
I'm FINALLY going to be getting my S19 from @Kaboomracks and it looks like it will be a bit better than what I had ordered, the 29.5 J/T instead of 34.5J/T which is just that much more efficient but still puts out a ton of heat to warm the greenhouse.

And this is the psychosis that pervades the morons here in Washington state. The extreme reaction is so telling.
Same here. He is a really good man and could possibly make a significant impact. Let's hope he and the rest of the administration survive the tenure.
Soggy Morning #Nostr
Quite the rain day yesterday which kept me inside for most of it. I got my hard drive shipped off for diagnosis and have my replacement SSD arriving today along with a real quality keyboard for once in my life. In the afternoon I managed to get my computer t orecognize the NanoNVA and I was able to start running tests on my smaller #hamradio #antennas. This was the output from my 2m whip antenna centered on 145 mhz. Lots to learn this winter!

Got in a great #paragliding #flight yesterday mid day, my longest at the site and my second longest ever. Had some great learning during the flight and felt solid and comfortable the whole time.
The shit hit the fan in the evening when my 1TB internal HDD fucked off and died. I ran every forensics program I have, plugged it into every box I have, nothing. SO ENRAGING!!!!!!! I am taking the drive to a recovery service today to see if the data can be salvaged. Thankfully it was mostly backed up so not everything is toast, just the past 3 months worth...
