These chat boards and weekend meet ups and you'd meet the weirdest bunch of freaks ever like the 40 something Japanese guy who drove limos and carried a meat cleaver, yes a giant meat cleaver in his suit jacket.

>>536761943I now know how women feel when I'm explaining how an automatic transmission works.I didnt understand any of that. The main gist of it was tapping into internet traffic to record it on a vcr no?
>>536761905Indeed, I’m sure the geeks had a heyday with that one. Here’s navigator 3.6 if you’d like to check it outhttps://archive.org/details/PBNav3.6
>>536761460Goddamn that hit hard. I'm sorry, anon.
>>536762294Yeah, although any recording device of the time would’ve worked, such as a cassette player/recorder, one can fit a hell of a lot more data on a VCR. ALOT of important traffic still is unencrypted, using standard protocols. The thing is, for actual communication to be established, both modems need to be set to the same baud rate, back then you had to know the proper baud and terminal emulation settings(8bits, parity y/n, baud rate and command syntax) whereas auto negotiation eliminated that need. So, the guy is saying that most of the modem traffic he picked up was beyond the baud rate his can handle, but he still has the data which can be hooked up to a more capable modem(or a sound card and s/w program, back then a lot of people didn’t add the separate ISA card for sound+DB15 joystick) for decoding clear text logins and passwords
>>536759799Watch the first poster finger his asshole
>>536762294Same concepts still work today for satellite communications, it’s just modems hooked up to regular transceivers, and a sync box for connecting the dish itself. Actually you can do it with just a good directional antenna.

>>536762940Spot on, yes. The same concepts still work with fiber optic as well as the copper coax “MoCA” that Xfinity and others use. However it’s a matter of collecting a wider band of information, but all the protocols and specifications for each telecom provider is public information, readily available. There are still the same (and more, but same conceptual ideals) trunks and breakout boxes for traditional single pair phone wires and dual pair broadband connections.

>>536764514Oh yeah I could go all day Baofengs are good to learn with. They are not to be relied on.If you want “simple” and ability to use it now w/o a general tech license(which is extremely easy to get), GMRS requires only a fee to acquire a license, and it’s within the requirements for a medium range comms network, if you have places to install repeaters or if you’re staying within 20mi. If you want ALOT more distance w/o license, CB and a decent amplifier. HF is obviously best for long distance, but VHF much more affordable and you can still get quite a bit of coverage, especially if you’re only establishing comms between sites, rather than general broadcast. You can use directional antennas.In fact you can do this same stuff and send WiFi or any other data over it, if you stick within the bandplans(encrypted vs non, voice vs data etc). I use Icom radios because they are mil-std, reliable, and I find them easy to program. The programming software is available for free and programming cables are cheap(you can build your own as well). An Icom VHF radio 75W output 150-220mhz or so xmit capability will be about $150 or less. You can also go for UHF, 450-512mhz if you want to go the GMRS route. You don’t need P25 at this time.

Basically nobody had any of that shit. explain how you had wifi back then you fat retard. >erm well I had a radio and it wasjust shut up. you didnt do that, and if you explained how you could technically use a wireless signal with a radio and a modem, you would get laughed at for being a nerd.

>>536765206Actually handles vs names was hotly debated in the Usenet era.“ It is important to remember that some people are reading hundreds and hundreds of messages each day - they are most likely the most qualified to help you out, so you want to make it easy for them to read your posts. Many people just read through the Subject-lines and determine from there on, if they are going to bother to read the entire article, so try to keep the subject line short, but significant. "HELP!!!!!!!" is bad, bad example. Remember that writing in all caps is considered to be screaming; furthermore, ``multiple exclamation marks are a sure sign of a sick mind.''12.As mentioned above, nobody knows who you are, and sometimes you may not even want to reveal your identity. However, many people prefer answering questions when asked politely by somebody with a real name. Your name is like your outer appearance in cyberspace - if you post under the name "K3wl d00d", your postings might not be taken seriously. Likewise, if you choose a rather offensive name, people might killfile you right away, without even looking at your posts. Just use your real name and your real e-mail address.When you reply to another message, quote only the relevant portions of the message you are replying to. Don't quote the whole message if not necessary, especially deleting previous signatures. Be careful to not misattribute something. Leave in the attribution line that most newsreaders provide. Observe the attribution lines and read posts carefully. Replied text goes below the quoted text!

>>53676056395, not 85
>>536765603The history of Usenet is so closely linked to the history of the Internet itself and the history of Unix (and thus Linux!), that it is worth to spend some time finding out how things started. Let us take a trip back into the year 1976 (a good year, I might add4) - the place, how could it be any different, AT&T Bell Laboratories, where a new utility called ``Unix To Unix Copy Program'' (or short: UUCP) had just been developed. UUCP was designed as a simple and efficient way of copying files between computers via phone-lines, and while nowadays UUCP has been superseded by TCP/IP based protocols, it still lay the foundation for what became known as ``the poor man's ARPANet''.The poor man's ARPANetThe ARPANet (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network), created by the US Department of Defense in 1969, was originally limited to computer scientists with Department of Defense contracts - not everybody could just go ``willy-nilly over the ARPANet''. Aside from these connections, in order to join ARPANet, one needed quite some cash - assumed numbers ranged up to $100,000.In 1979, two Duke University grad students started using UUCP to enable people to exchange information by uploading (``posting'') a message to a designated subject-area called a ``newsgroup''. Following a simple bulletin-board approach, subsequent messages would appear in the same ``newsgroup'', messages regarding other topics would appear in a different ``newsgroup''. This message-system became known as Usenet News (Unix Users Network) - using UUCP, everybody, even poor students were able to use this system, without being connected to the ARPANet.The shell-scripts used by these two students, Tom Truscott and Jim Ellis, were later re-written in C for public distribution and named the ``A'' release of news. If you consider how much traffic goes through an average full-feed news-server nowadays5, it is amusing to know that this ``A'' release was designed for

>>536759799Post racist memes on alt.political.incorrect Usenet newsgroup on my 486.
>>536765668not more than a few articles per group per day.This small number of messages posted each day evolved into what became its own culture of sharing information and support as more and more groups of core sites were linked together. In the year 1981, UUCP and ARPANet, up until then still independent, were linked together by Berknet (at the University of California at Berkeley). Other universities and colleges developed their own networks, such as BITnet (Because It's Time net - we see, a geek's affirmation for witty acronyms has a long tradition), which was based on the IBM protocol and developed by Yale and the City University of New York[4].As these various different networks were linked together, Usenet had the form of a graph - and ``Network maps'' were drawn.Figure 1: An early map of Usenet, ca 1980\includegraphics[width=1.0\textwidth]{map.eps}The news software was re-written and became the ``B'' release, networks were developed and linked, in brief, things were changing quickly. More and more forums were established, and it became clear that more structure was needed - it was time for ``The Great Renaming''[3].Anon interested in radio: remember, this is VERY important- it’s not HAM as it’s not an acronym, it’s just ham radio. The old timers will be very appreciative of you understanding the gravity of how important that is to them.

>>536765297Btw, UHF is basically good for only within city comms. But microwave comms are easy to establish, and you don’t need a microwave rated radio to do it, as you are modulating an external microwave device.You tune your transmitter to 1.5GHz for example. On the end you want to receive on, you tune to say 1.160ghz. The difference between the two is your actual radio transmitting and receiving signal, allowing you to use a VHF radio(or any band) for microwave comms. Lots of online info available on this too.Look up SRF gun, gunnplexer.

Very hot at the time.Friend was an aggie who spent a lot of time collecting data from/with really innovative farmers, out on field. He swore by it. >>536765500I really should rename that image file.
>>536759799I'd be freaked out and probably go around asking my neighbors what's up before hunkering down for a few days. I think the first few months after would suck massive ass and I'd be absolutely steamed at having a bunch of cash in fidelity I'm too stupid to get access to, but I still have more than enough cash to survive off of for a few months. Unless anyone can send me a bill in the mail I wouldn't give a fuck about anything but rent, and I live in subsidized housing so there's a 50/50 chance I'd get straight up forgotten in the chaos if I stopped paying rent.

But I did have a computer in 95
>>536767248>>536767299When the earth was young and I was too, I used to take a lot of calls at the research center where I worked (ag), from farmers asking whether power lines, transformers, etc., could affect animal (livestock) health and behavior.Well, yes. Very much yes. https://microwavenews.com/news-centerBut we only talked about all that over beer and karaoke out in pubs in the sticks.
>>536767267Oh what I would give for an LCD unit for mine. I have the monochrome monitor with stand(as presented in much marketing), but the color monitor has beautifully crisp imagery, I’ve used it as well as a commodore RGB unit as gaming monitors for even Xbox 360, I was amazed at the crisp quality. Ofc now it’s dedicated to this purpose.I actually have a lot of experience with scientific analytical instrumentation, sensors, many of which were used in PLC automation, I can easily imagine the data your innovative friend might have been collecting and am somewhat intrigued as to what data he collected(good lord some of it could be incredibly useful for comparing soil qualities now vs then, as well as being interesting in the general “story” of modern farming’s technological advancement”), how influential it was if at all, what the sentiments were at the time. Thanks for sharing.
>>536767502Related and very aware, it’s extremely alarming some of the things we’re doing, from my perspective. I can think of a lot of ways to use the fleet of phased array comms satellites we now have thousands of to look forward to.

>>536767510A lot of the work his group and my center had in common was more about how to manage farm systems without, say, spending an f-ton of money on things that didn't make the work easier for the farmer/family, and while improving animal, plant, and soil health. Calculating the tradeoffs at every level.It was a highly integrative model and a big part of my role was pulling all the diverse and rarely connected pieces together and getting them coordinated. So that the--in your example--soil data guys could talk to the hydro guys could talk to the weather trends guys could talk to the ag engineers, and all of them knew when to STFU and listen to the farmers, etc. We did a LOT of work with restoring/reviving pasture-based livestock methods/systems. For most of the years I worked at that center we had a grants program that meshed with state and national ones, to build farmer/academic research teams. The Land Grant academics didn't do the kind of real-world research the farmers need; the academics focused on chasing the big money, and putting their research on the experiment stations, e.g.Big Ag--so tightly connected to Pharma--was always chasing its own set of lucrative kitty-laser-pointers. We were trying to work with some of the smartest people I ever met--those innovative, usually but not always smaller--farmers, and make sure their incredible, inquisitive, observant minds could develop inquiry. We really needed a sort of Bell Labs for non-heavy-metal farming/food systems. But instead that all fell in the realm of Monsanto, etc. It never occurs to most people that human food systems are as artificially engineered as say electron based ones...and every bit as responsive to the inputs of genuine geniuses.

>>536768088Ah, you’re much like me, the one who is called in to absorb a fuckload of seemingly unrelated data, identify correlations and bring it all into “meta-data” context. Alot of people have trouble, say, taking a set of documents designed to be “read”(referenced) together, rather than parse all the data and take in context of eachother, they treat each page as its own individual entity. I’ve reached asst production mgr/QA manager status and beyond w/o a degree or college experience at all, but I haven’t found so many intelligent people in one place at one time. Needless to say that’s subjective to the individual, when I was an unchallenged middle schooler I would cause a bit of a ruckus as the class clown, resulting in my having to take an IQ test as an assessment as to what they were going to do with me. After scoring absurdly high, I had to retake the test to confirm it, they simply couldn’t believe it due to the number of 9’s involved. That was age 13. So it’s difficult finding “peers” here on this planet.
>>536759799A lot people had internet in 1995. I even had upgraded from dial up to DSL by ‘97 or so. You need to go back to 1985 to get to a time when most non poors didn’t have internet.
>>536759857I think I'm gonna finger this guy's asshole.
>>536767818The whole issue of how solar, galactic, and beyond EM interplays with the earth's fields is one of my pet obsessions. There is PLENTY of research on how robust EM bursts like solar activity correlate with extreme behavior in humans. For example, violent outbursts correlating with CMEs whomping the earth. Or rapid upturns in cardiac problems. So much is going on all the time with the planet's Birkeland currents. I suspect that what is called the "anomaly" there is a flow of EM in, around, and through the charged spherical capacitor upon which we reside.That flow has shape and movement and features with structured elements that can be observed, Hannes Alfven thought, over 39 orders of magnitude. I was thinking the other night about the work done on mapping long-term climate patterns (heat/cool cycles) onto our solar system's movement through the electrical fields of our galaxy's spiral arms. The pond-ripples of that swirling out...and our little corner of existence surfing those waves. I was thinking about the research measuring electrical flows/shape at the edges of tectonic plates/fault lines. And about the work being done on measuring geoelectricity as part of a predictive model for earthquakes/volcanic activity.Overlaying on all that the increasingly dense human-created electrical flows and jitters is a reminder to think bigger about it all. But then we have the interests you note. Unquestionably there has been a lot more research and tinkering and live-time experimentation than we would be comfy to know.
>>536768088This all reminds me of the TVA efforts to introduce contour farming to Appalachia(WV/TN/VA), which would have massively made the local farmers lives easier as well as safer, less risk to community, etc, yet the locals there ran them off, despite a few model farms working out beautifully. At least the dams went in. I used to live in WV, Eleanor Roosevelt knows well that Appalachians don’t want nor need help from outsiders- except rich businessmen to buy up the whole town and bring employment to the area, and further corruption.Except in your case the farmers seem to have been leagues more progressive.

>>536768410>So it’s difficult finding “peers” here on this planet.One suspects another origin. :^>I worked for some years in education policy for the state agency of one of the two most highly regarded public schooling systems (WI and IA). I was...devastated isn't too strong a word...to see how absolutely abandoned extremely intelligent students were, systematically, at every level of this agency. "Oh, they're smart, they'll do OK."My teacher was a professor at a military college for over 35 years. He saved my life when I was in my teens. He told me once that really smart kids have to do two things in life: live by their wits, and find ways not to be devoured by their own minds/capacities. I didn't know what he meant by that latter point till my late 20s into 30s. As I really began to understand how fat the left 90% of the bell curve was. The pre-commercial internet came along just in time. I don't know what I would have done without the people I found that way. /pol/ used to be a much more reliable nexus, so this thread is very comfy indeed, and I thank you and OP.

>>536768753I've been pulling out older stuff in my library on America's dam-building obsession of the 20th century, as complement to discussions of that most hopeless of Utopias, California. The building of dams was not planned in a meta way...and there was a lot of howling pseudoscience in it. Like, e.g., the assertion that "the rain will follow the plow." (By cultivating dryland, it'll bring moisture to it.)The Appalachian thing--I did a lot of backpacking there in my younger years, and loved every mile and foot. I was especially interested in the scars left by the rich businessmen you note. In Pennsylvania there are entire ridgetops that still cannot grow vegetation, the land was so burned by coal-mining activity. And now we hear that there's lithium in them thar hills. The farmers I worked with were indeed progressive, in the original sense of the term. More than that, they were the kind of men (and a few women) who could have an open discussion, explore ideas, bash them around...argue...disagree...and still keep an eye on the stars, and navigate, and tack as needed. They were incredible people. And watching some of them get targeted by Monsanto, for instance, for offering public discussion of the likely meta effects of rBGH, or "terminator" seeds, or whatever...that was really hard. >>536768864Ah yes. That is a very nice graphic. Did you create it?>>536769116Oh yeah. I ran across HyperPhysics as a hit on Wiby a couple years ago and got completely lost in there. CLASSIC site.

>>536769024>>536761769>>536768893The biggest problem I’m having is with being morally OK contributing to basically anything that one might consider “making good use of my abilities”. I can’t really think of a damn thing I can agree with or be “OK” with that this country or our military industrial complex has done in the last 100+yrs, and god knows exactly what they did to JFK(we all do).>another originMy guy don’t even get me started on that, I’ve literally seen actual aliens and my older half-brother to this day still remembers it as well, and both of my half bros remember us seeing a UFO over the local fishing lake we hung out at, in woods near STL
>>536769299The lithium I believe is upstate NY and western mass. Which is just great because I live east of there near Prov/Bos. At any rate, I still remember watching them blast away my beautiful mountains to put in I-79 when I was 3 years old, and now there’s so damn many mountaintops blown clean off. Obama fucked the coal industry up there, which was the one well paying job opportunity, and you didn’t even have to go in the mines to make great cash, you could drive surface trucks right out of HS. My friends were making over $100,000 in 2009, 2010 when the bottom fell out. I think you have some perspective as to how significant that amount of money is there, everyone was buying their mom or parents new houses, new cars, then buying the same for themselves, CASH. That’s how shit got so fucked in WV, that and the opioid crisis that such labor produced, the docs were giving it away then just quit overnight. Then the meth came…I did not create the image. The site is amazingly still updated, btw. I need to kick off too man, it’s been good. Great even.
