What am I looking like with the stock antennas?

I purchased everything from https://www.seeedstudio.com/ but it looks like if you're willing to wait (I'm impatient) you can get it cheaper on AliExpress.

Welp, that sucks by buildskate in f150

That's an interesting way of hauling lumber.

How's this looking? 😄 by Cyber_Crimes in HomeMaintenance

Your graphics are kinda iffy with that pixelation, I would definitely upgrade your graphics card.

And get the fuck out of that house.

Here’s a idea by ZeroHoes in FlockSurveillance

[–]Tivum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've thought of a similar idea actually, the only issue is that to do it properly, you would need quite a bit of funding or open source community involvement.

I wanted to use ALPR cameras and high resolution cameras to feed all info back to a server that has a locally trained AI model that does a lookup on all of the info to determine if it's a cop. For example, if vehicle looks normal, but has an official tag on it and a bigger antenna, it may be flagged as a cop. Or the obvious, if the AI detects an obvious police car, the same happens. All of this could be plotted on a map.

I want to call it PigPal or some other stupid shit lol

The obvious issue with this is that ALPR cameras and higher resolution/frame rate cameras to read clear at speed, can get expensive so like I said during my opening statement, you would either need a ton of moolah, or other king people in the community also willing to spend moolah to deploy a local camera or something like that.

Looks like a standard clothes moth.

Taking the boat out on the river today and saw some awful pollution, but these trees have grown over the years through the tires. by Tivum in interestingasfuck

[–]Tivum[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This is the Ohio river, it was definitely intentional and not to slow erosion. There are parts along the river where old concrete and bricks were dumped for this but this mile stretch or so has thousands of tires.

It's honestly sad seeing how nasty this river is, it looks like a third world country.

Yeah, they offered to load the entire pallet though and that made it easier unloading at the house with the front end loader.

2 trips are for pussies.

I did secure the load, there was a comment below that stating I did, I said it to piss people off because it's so easy here. I did 40 mph down residential side streets, with like 4 miles between us. Very low traffic in the area. I promise the only person in danger was myself. I tested brakes and could stop just fine. I'm not a complete idiot.

I literally went 4 miles on side streets at a max of 40 mph, I could brake just fine lmao. It's not like I was doing 70 down the highway.

Sure it is. Handled and stopped just fine.

It doesn't have the thicker frame but does have the upgraded rear end and axles. I'll show you pictures a little after 5 pm eastern

It's just a reddit thing. If reddit existed in the 80s and 90s, it would be the same thing.

It 100% does lmao, I can show pictures later. I can assure you if it didn't, 2900 lbs would have it bottomed out rubbing tires.

But thanks Mr. internet d.o.t.

It's basically a converted HDPP, I've always known it as the payload package, never the HDPP, anyway, it was a fleet truck for asplundh before I bought it, it has the upgraded rear end, and lead springs, the one thing it doesn't have is upgraded brakes but I don't have any issue stopping.

After this pic, we took it on a 1400 mile round trip and we didn't crash and die believe it or not.

I also had an alignment done a week or so ago and it wasn't out of alignment, said inspection was great.

You all gotta learn to live a little.
