Did 7 years in Ford dealerships, glad to be out

@Garet such as? Im sure theres a good bit here you could do as well as Intel

mmm i suppose programming, networking, automation, websites

hardware recommendations idk

im fairly well rounded on the software side

@Garet in your opinion what is the next step for servers/communities like this in becoming independent of larger companies and networks

well if i had the resources i would say you'd really want more of a blockchain-style messaging system with the ability for groups to set their own permissions and level of discoverability. combine that with an easy way for barely-computer-literate folks to mirror a community site. kinda like how thepiratebay keeps itself up with tons of mirrors of the same data

though you could get fancier

make more-or-less another internet, like TOR does @Diggs

Wow. That’s very mechanical

All software requires proper hardware. Ham Radio has progressed significantly over the years and could probably support local servers via CHIRP. Private encrypted LAN servers running linux could also support local supply chains or people networks with digital communications and intel.

@Shane_NA6 - Haven't hovered in years but I have 105 hours in a training helo, Robinson R-22.

Good shit

It's been a long goddamn day

@yeetasaurus drink that pain away bub

Bacardi and Crown are both tempting

Bacardi

Although I don't feel like mixing a drink currently

Sup everyone. Racecar building/engine assembly/welder and hopefully soon to be roll cage builder. Way things are going it looks like it’ll be more armor than roll cages but 🤷🏼‍♂️

Good shit. Glad to have you with us

Back to drones for a min. Def stay away from DJI. They control where you fly and track everything. Ready made rc sells everything you need to roll your own. Also check out tiny woop. They fit in the palm of your hand and have a camera that transmits to a video receiver. Also it’s not the motors that are noisy it’s the props. DJI props are about as quiet as you can get but still sound like bees. There are some pretty cheap bad ass planes that have long range and good cameras and can glide pretty far. Rmrc sells all that

The other big companies are FPV and surprisingly Amazon sells a ton for decently cheap

Does anybody else's 2A budget have any competition?

Im going to be spending money on my car soon, but thats just an unfortunate side effect of being a car guy

I feel the pain

I know how to work on any Chrysler vehicle and cummins stuff im a certified FCA tech

Dank

I’m a industrial compressor and engine mechanic

I work on fords in my spare time

I'm a GM certified master tech but i left that because if its not a pushrod V8 it was trash and i hated warranty, so i work on european/exotic shit now

American motors went to junk there for a while

The newer gassers seem to be a ton better

Here I am, picking up a Discovery 1.... aka : the only reliable land rover...
