Reducing the effects of loss over long distance coax runs.


20W is a lot to pump into a piece of coax if it's not going to an antenna. Besides usually the practice is to simply put the signal handling equipment at the antenna, or down convert to a lower frequency like an LNB does.

I would imagine it's more for a local microwave link. Microwave antennas have huge gain due to their directionality so 20W can do a lot. And you are limited to the horizon anyway.


Cloudflare tunnels for stuff requiring an actual machine. Cloudflare or Netlify Pages for static projects (with D1 as a database when needed).


There's a distinct lack of ads, you're not done quite yet.


Of course, streammyaudio is by shollz, the same dude behind the croc file transfer tool. This guy is a legend.


I'm not a photographer that would use this, but one thing that immediately popped in my head is sun angle at specific times, such as what appears on https://www.mountainproject.com/area/108334937/unlikely-wall


That's a cool idea, thanks for the link, like the visual showing where the sun will be in relation to a spot.


Do we live in the same town? That's been my experience exactly, many experiences have required walking briskly before a simple question becomes more than a yes or no answer and explaining why I don't have $20 or a meal on me. The times I do try to buy them a meal I've been lead to the most expensive restaurant nearby (be threw away my meal I got him at Subway).


Love the idea. Could use some filters and stale (sleeping) clients could get removed quicker.

Also, it seemed to be disconnecting quite often, maybe a hug of death thing.


Yeah, I'll definatelly improve that! I wasn't expecting HN crowd :sweat


Fun fact: you can fly through the entirety of the Great Wall of China!

Spent a long time as a kid doing so. I still use Google Earth "Pro" today, so much better than the webapp.


What's the difference between that and what's in place now? I thought every male had to register within 30 days of their 18th birthday.


That mandatory isn’t the same as automatic?

Also, I’d guess that there are a ton of people who are not in fact aware of that requirement.


> mandatory isn’t the same as automatic

We know what the pieces are in the mandatory system.

What pieces make up automatic registration?
