AI can be an effective support tool for a teacher. Old way = 30 students, with teacher at the front explaining/showing/etc. Occasional questions/responses. Some are shy, some not f…

A retrospective analysis of what was the motive behind all this? Did they want an Adobe/Oracle type stranglehold/walled garden for max revenue extraction? Did they want to own any …

I remember Wayne well, W2NSD = never say die... He did well in ham radio magazines, and entered computer magazines running full speed with byte and others. His accountant advised h…

Starlink can blacklist an area, but the frequent Tx/Rx emissions persist. Smuggled in terminals can be blacked once found. I am not sure how local areas discover/ID to Starlink/req…
