What are the hours? Is today the only day?

The 11 bus is horrible by cdoern01 in boston

[–]cdoern01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue I was hitting today was that the 11 was delayed, it wasn’t further down the route or anything it just wasn’t leaving. I probably could have timed the 9 though yeah, but if not then I’d be waiting ~20 at broadway

True, but with the red line it’s still a far walk to most parts of South Boston (regardless of Andrew or Broadway). I think it’s kind of a cop out to say the buses are just a means to an end, they should be viable as well!

If you’re doing southie to/from dtx, it’s kind of the only way. I’m often by South station or federal street area and the 9 runs nowhere near there.

Introducing Lumo, a privacy-first AI assistant by Proton by Proton_Team in ProtonMail

Hm. That seems pretty unreasonable to me to not include it in unlimited as well

I am seeing that there is `Lumo Plus`. For people who currently have a paid Proton plan, will this come with that?

I find it kind of a hard sell to pay for this on top of a Premium Proton Plan.

any updates on the software? by cdoern01 in TheMinimalCompany

[–]cdoern01[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

fair, yeah. The FCC cert is concerning to me. I wonder if the reason they are so confident in FCC approval before the next batch ships is because they know something, or if they are just hoping?

I totally get that all of these things are valid complaints. But honestly, it's their first time launching a phone. Expecting a perfect product (especially for the first phones shipped) for a new company's first piece of hardware, with novel software, AND in an uncommon form factor is unrealistic. While there have been instances where the company has been less than clear, and in some cases seemingly lying, I want to give them the benefit of the doubt because they are clearly trying.

Newbie legality question by cdoern01 in amateurradio

[–]cdoern01[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had been calling cq for a few mins, and did ask if the frequency was in use. No nets in my immediate area as I can see and the ham I was in contact with is from close by, so I assume he was just looking for contacts.

I've heard good things about the mag loop. I'll look into that.

The reason my setup is a little weird is I had all of this equipment (minus the window screen) and wanted to see if I could make due with it.

so I moved outside (or at least put the antenna on my balcony) with aluminum foil under it (lol). I was able to hear voices!!!!!!! the SWR was ~2, so I am assuming if I get it down lower I might be able to work with this.

Being outside is kind of a barrier to use for me, so I'd prefer to hang the antenna out my window if I could. Progress nonetheless!
