I ❤️ local politics. Towamencin Supervsior Osei gifted my feed with this gem this morning.

An image featuring a list of policy positions attributed to Kofi Osei, including points on housing, reproductive rights, and gender-affirming care. Below is a photo of a sign that states "Kofi Osei WANTS to BAN Dog ownership"

There's a certain charm to picking up a radio packet message from outside Trenton on a credit card sized radio in my pocket from a farm in the middle of MontCo PA off a solar repeater I helped install on the top of a grain silo outside my home town. #meshcore

Calibrating buck converters and soldering battery packs at #jawncon today was one of the most mentally relaxing things I've done in weeks. The talks were great too. 😀

Well shit the Saudi guys surveillance device hidden at Open AI looks just like the (harmless) little boards I carry around in my bag to chat with my mesh radio friends, down to the logo on the antenna (cat for scale) #meshcore #meshtastic

As a ham I've always been a fan of tropospheric ducting because it makes far away radio stations sound close but apparently it can also kill according to local first responders frustrated by the Northampton County trunked radio system posting on Facebook.

What a sign of the times when the county elections office says "maybe don't trust the institution of the postal service to follow through on your civic duty."

A notice for mail/absentee voters in Montgomery County, advising them to submit their ballot-return envelope at a County Drop Box or in person to avoid potential issues with the U.S. Postal Service. It includes details about the general election date of November.

Last night I quietly set up a little nerd refuge at the Cub Scouts open house at the park and the little nerds discovered it all on their own and learned about mesh radios, tiny computers, and how they can be coded to interact with the world with sensors and leds.

A group of children is gathered around a picnic table, engaged in a project involving various electronic components and a laptop displaying a map. They are outdoors in a park setting, with grass and trees in the background.

An electronic device is being held in a hand. It features a small screen displaying a message and has an antenna attached. The device appears to be a microcontroller or module related to communication.

My wife said I should stop having "hobbies" like local boards where I eventually wind up with a title and regular meetings and obligations so my new hobby is climbing several hundred feet up tall structures to deploy solar #meshcore nodes.

A man smiles while standing on a rooftop, overlooking a green landscape with houses and fields. The sky is partly cloudy, and he is wearing a cap, a dark polo shirt, and has a messenger bag.
