Hello, candycanearter07

I'm glad you are enjoying our community, and a happy belated birthday.

You mentioned SDF, which I have an account on but rarely used
- I should try it out again
- anonradio is good to hear on a road trip :)
- Do you use an instance on Matrix or Mastodon?

Cheers,
Archer72

I heard again about the 'silent key', and was reminded that an Electronics instructor of mine in a local college was a fan of the paddle key as a Ham radio operator. I'm left wondering and on a mission to find out if he is 'silent key' or still alive. This graduating class was 30 years ago (1995), and he also taught me to use the 8080 processor assembler, which the chip could only be re-written after erasure from exposure to a UV light.

Thank you, Kevie, for the shoutout concerning CYD.

You sent me on a quest to find and listen to your podcast. It took me a bit to figure out how to spell TuxJam, but I finally got it and am listening.

Nicely done!!

decided to put my responses into one bc i didnt want to spam the comments, uhh let me know if thats not allowed and stuff sorry

- im suprised someone recorded a 8 HOUR SHOW?? that seems way too long to keep talking for :(

- i mmaybe will make an episode or two on my scripts, tho ill start with the taskwarrior one (which doesnt use xclip) since thematic followup to my first ep :>

- peertube is a cool concept but i only occasionally watch videos on the anonradio/sdf instance, so i dont have the experience to make a episode about it :P

- agreed, ai freaking S U C K S as both an artist and coder

- you cant listen to regular books, lol

- happy late birthday to archer :) (also my birthday is in 2 days :))

- either the news list has been going to spam or i missed it bc i completely forgot about it :( ill double check that once i finish listening

- RE: Trey - thanks for introducing me to TuxJam, i have another podcast to dump into gPodder :)
