    Every rule in English has exceptions, but when we make a new word should it follow the rule, or be an exception?

    The argument is that words starting with g followed by i are most often soft g.

    Its actually a rule of the English language that g followed by i is a soft g.

    I didnt actually die, but I came pretty close. I lost a ton of blood, started tk get tunnel vision, blacked out, then there was nothing, then I regained consciousness after getting a transfusion. Not sure how long I was out, but they said I was white as a sheet.

    I used garuda for about a year and a half and loved it...mostly. I use a bluetooth headset and controller for gaming and it seems like after every single update, bluetooth broke and i either had to stuggle for hours to try and fix it, or just not use it till another update. Also, a lot of multiplayer games that use anticheat won't work on linux. I just recently switch back to windows because of those hassles.

    If those things aren't comcerns for you then you should love your experience! Best of luck!

    Struggling with X6100

    This radio is the most expensive thing I have bought for the hobby so far and it is making me want to cry. I cant figure out why it wont tune up to the dipole I made. It seems to work fine sometimes and just randomly shut off other times. SWR scan seems to be effected by being plugged in to power. ATU seems to be equally hit or miss. I am login my mind. Any help or advice is welcome!

    The Navy also has redundancies and procedures in place for when those controllers fail. The controller doesn't determine whether the crew lives or dies.

    According to this google groups answer

    "It's actually for the power company system with new technology, every customer will get a new automated meter, equipped with a network radio. The radio transmits meter readings to the access points, housed on the electric pole. This is the access point."

    I want to learn Morse Code. I have tried a bunch of different ways and I struggle. I considered how it used to be done, a cassette tape that plays the sounds over and over driving them into your skull. I figured I would make one myself and see if it helped. I feel like I am associating the sounds to the letters more effectively than other methods I have tried. Maybe it will help someone else too!

    My plan for the future

    Maybe no one cares, but in case you are interested. This drama with Reddit was not only the last straw for me after over 12 years of faithful membership, it was a catalyst. I have been interested in a more decentralized internet for a handful of years now and Lemmy is my first step. I have dabbled in Freenet and I2P and now I'm going to roll up my sleeves and get involved. I have started my own Lemmy instance and invited people to use it to access the community. My next step is to spin up a Freenet node. After that I will be making some more intro videos to explain what it is and how it works. After that I will start looking more into I2P and doing the same. During this time I will be following closely the development and growth of all 3 and reporting on it as well on my new YouTube channel. The internet should be for the users, not for profiteering corporations. This should be our bastion from their greed. I will do my part to make it so.
