@gjacobse Hoping I can at least do some portable op maybe the kids might take an interest we will have to see
Sounds like fun - I run a bit on QRP though I don't go out for it,.. looking to build a 9:1 unun for random wire, but still need a tuner. However I can run without one using the EFZ-10/20/40 which has been my main antenna for a while ... just because I'm lazy.
Sounds like we have a couple of HAMs in the group. '73

So I found out that in Kiev GigE fiber at home is about $6/mo!!
That is so cheap, lucky guy!
It's crazy. How the heck can you get Internet access to be so cheap!
Because they don't have 350,000,000 people to serve fiber to! And because of what dafyre said.

Back off my holiday (again!) and getting stuck in at the deep end today!
I'm enjoying the lightning fast Internet here. Holy crap is it fast
Sounds good! Where abouts in the world are you?
Kiev, Ukraine. Loving this city. Found an amazing cocktail lounge (American speakeasy style) last night, the food is great, the weather is great in spring (I hear winter sucks), the Internet is great, the access to the rest of Europe is good, easy access to Romania.... I'm already a fan.
How long will you be there?

The more people you have, the cheaper it should be per connection.

Month at least, maybe more.

Man, I wish coffee still worked for me. Even if it didn't I still wish we didn't have shit coffee here.

Better to have shit coffee than coffee shits.
j/k good coffee with coffee shits is still good coffee.

True... but I'll drink good coffee, just not for a pick me up. I need about 50x the amount of caffeine provided by drip coffee (which literally puts me right to sleep).

I tossed half of that cold brew I made... I'll probably make another batch, but not so much at once next time. Hoo boy.

8oz of drip coffee has 95mg of caffeine, vs 80mg for a double espresso. That kind of microdose of caffeine doesn't do shit for me but make me want to go back to bed. I have no idea how much caffeine is in my 8 day cold brew, but it's more like taking drugs than drinking coffee.

THe thing about espresso is that it's tiny. Sure it is strong, but it is SO small.

He's constantly on the road, I can't imagine he actually spends time at client sights, I think he just drives in circles on the highway to make it look like he's being productive. . . . .
I'm not a NASCAR driver I don't get paid to drive in circles.
Then why does your picture look like you're about to make another right turn? Ha ha.
Somebody take away your southerner card. NASCAR only turns left dumbass.
Yeah but @RojoLoco drinks inhumanly strong coffee. It's crazy.

According to the box of Kroger Morning Boost (Wild Strawberry), which I add to my water in the morning and after noon, there are 120mg of caffeine in the little packets (each). There are 10 packets to a box, which cost about 3.50. Starbucks can suck it!

Most coffee people consider strong is the dark stuff, which has less caffeine than a light roast, and considerably less than that cold brew @RojoLoco makes. Take it from me, you don't want to drink much more than an expresso cup worth of that stuff at once, I was awake most of a weekend when I made my first batch.
Hrm, might be just the thing for MangoCon!

It's so close to drug addiction. I mean, technically it is drug addiction but you know what I mean.

I never knew. Was it ever popular somewhere?
