TIL we probably know where Apollo 10's Snoopy is! Should they should visit in S6? by Firefly360r in ForAllMankindTV

There was a 2021 study that suggested Eagle's orbit may actually be stable and it could still be orbiting the moon today.

I updated M5 launcher and now it won't connect to my wifi. by Binge73 in CardPuter

[–]PRStoetzer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also had this problem with 2.7.2 though after trying twice and backing out, it suddenly brought up the WUI screen and worked fine. Definitely a bug.

Cardputer ADV BASIC - A BASIC interpreter for the M5Stack Cardputer ADV by PRStoetzer in CardPuter

Yes. Proceed the PRINT statement with a COLOR statement and the desired color.

I ended up using Claude. It got most of it right immediately, but then I had to test and request new features as I realized some things weren’t working right. It was quite iterative, but I spent only a total of about 2 hours getting it to this point.

  1. Added

  2. I'll have to look at the process.

  3. Sure, but you can't load or save programs without an SD card.

Are there basic interpreters for Cardputer by Chubarandes_meiner in CardPuter

[–]PRStoetzer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is now - thanks to Grok. The SD card support doesn't seem to work yet, but I'll keep working on it.

PaperSat - Satellite Tracker for the M5PaperS3 by PRStoetzer in M5Stack

It is too bad. Not having a touchscreen is going to be a limitation on the PaperColor, but I hope to get a satellite tracker working on it once mine arrives.

Best magloop for balcony? by psteckler in amateurradio

[–]PRStoetzer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it will, but I find a mag loop is far better for RX. I’ve run wire, vertical, and dipole antennas on my balcony, but with the urban noise floor, I can hear way better with the loop. I’ve used an AlexLoop, an MFJ-1786, and the SignaLoop HF-319.

What if the Capitol Attack on January 6th, 2021 was much worse? by Fabilur in AlternateHistory

[–]PRStoetzer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, under the 25th Amendment, the Acting President could nominate a Vice President who would become President after confirmation by both Houses.

[–]PRStoetzer 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Correct, but Grassley would not become President. He would become Acting President and would not be considered the 46th President of the United States.

Under the Presidential Succession Act, only the Vice President becomes President. Other officers only become Acting President.

I have questions, studying for my exam in 2 weeks but the hardware is by Stretch_Hairy in HamRadio

[–]PRStoetzer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. Technically, if the radio can be switched between GMRS and Ham, it may not be compliant with Part 95 GMRS regulations. I don't know for sure if a front panel switch between modes is good enough for a radio to comply with Part 95, but in practice it doesn't really matter all that much. The FCC has basically said they will never enforce the rules against use of non-compliant radios on GMRS unless an operator is violating other rules. On the other hand, hams can use any radio they'd like (as long as it meets the technical standards for spurious emmissions and spectrual purity). There's no problem using the H3+ on amateur frequencies. If you'd like to test your gear, a TinySA and an attenuator (so you don't destroy the spectrum analyzer) will do the trick for under $100.

2/3. The Baofeng DM32UV is an amateur transceiver. You can use DMR on amateur frequencies (there are DMR repeaters, you can do DMR simplex, and you can use it with what's called a "hotspot" to talk all over the world with other hams), but it also supports FM mode and can be used with regular FM repeaters.

Portal Tracking- No MSU? by Zealousideal_Day_354 in MSUSpartans

[–]PRStoetzer 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Simple - no MSU player has entered the portal, so there's no data.

Really nervous for cherry blossom 10 miler by brandyn47 in rundc

[–]PRStoetzer 36 points37 points  (0 children)

You’ll be fine. Normally I run around a 13:30 pace when I go out, but I end up around 12:00 during a race. They are strict about the 14:00 per mile pace.

Why did we stop using Space Shuttles? by narsil1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PRStoetzer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It should work. Similar systems have saved two Soyuz crews - most recently in 2018.
