wow, @BurgBot sure is a weird niche fetish.
@surfingalot same reason people like to hear about the affairs of the king's court, or follow celebrity gossip, or engage with their sports team's comeback narrative. humans are social primates and we like to know who did what to whom and why, even if it's *totally irrelevant* to our life.
@surfingalot that happens on my 18 core xeon with fancy gpu. it's the web's fault

@surfingalot your options are a ruby app that sucks, or a decent app written in a weirdo language (pleroma is elixir).
go-fed might be viable soon, hopefully

@surfingalot this might be a masto thing, mastodon is sort of the sendmail of activitypub. i'm probably going to switch to pleroma on my single-user instance, and set up a pleroma instance for friends on a cool domain as well
@surfingalot i just bought another pair of mediocre (but not $20) headphones with usb for the price of the modmic. also my HD820s don't have a good place to mount the modmic.
@surfingalot i already have 2 of those and 3 different hdmi-to-usb-flash standalone recorders, and 2 hdmi-to-usb2 not-standalone adapters....
i was talking about the VHS tapes themselves, *after* i digitize them.
wow. trey parker and matt stone are geniuses.
@joli i don't like making physical art
i'm sort of surprised there isn't some turnkey app that speaks to an rtlsdr, does a VHF and UHF survey automatically over a few mins, identifies any carriers, identifies the ones that are p25, and starts logging all of the signaling traffic on them, offering you a list of all observed talkgroups to decode/record. you need to use like 5 different programs for this simple task.
