  • At least they offer a fix for it:

    Head to about:config in a new tab, accept the risk warning, and use the search bar to find the controls.

  • So many people in Austin drive well BELOW the speed limit that you end up wishing you were on the West or East Coast again doing 20MPH over every time you drive. Atop of not driving fast, they also refrain from anything more than a little tap of the horn for even the most life threatening maneuvers.

    It's not even a Texan thing, it's JUST a ridiculous Austin thing.

  • Fun fact! I'm studying for my amateur radio technician license and learned that ham came from calling amateur telegraph operators' sloppy work 'ham-fisted'. The amateur radio community decided to lean into it, and thus the ham radio operator was born

    I'll assume FCC Technician license; it's a fun hobby. I have had a General license since the 1990s when the FCC still required a proficiency in morris code. At a cost of $35 to renew and the ability to have a cellphone alternative while traveling long distance by car, it's worth keeping.

    Have fun, find your Ham niche and enjoy it for the rest of your life!

  • They prefer the term Hams and love to remind people (in morris code of course) that not all heroes wear capes.

    Hams are responsible for helping out in just about every natural disaster, war, power outage and anything else where a cellphone signal cannot be had.

    In truth though, hams are just a bunch of likeminded nerds with a love of the airwaves.
