@kilroy_was_here I am writing a new protocol I would like to see replace APRS, it is designed to be backwards compatible with APRS until the new protocol becomes pervasive enough to turn off backwards compatibility.

The new protocol is design to have better control over routing of packets both in terms of cross-band routing, and long-distance routing (many hops, not using IGates).

Past that core functionality there is a lot of other things that enable I'd like to do int he guture.

@trinsec Thankfully copper and lead is not magnetic... If i am using iron bullets I deserve to get shot int he face :)

@torparskytt Both of those are very well respected optic companies. let see how this sig I just ordered performs... I can always upgrade again.

I just bought some really nice domains for my #APRS project:

aprs-x.com (also got .org)
axps.org

I plan to use aprs-x for the protocol specification itself and axps for the software I am writing that will run it.

@BPStuart All those are valid points.. but we cant pretend hunter biden is not in the equation at all. The claim is that Biden used his political power to unfairly help his son. That seems like a very valid concern in principle. Whether it is the truth of the matter is up for debate of course, but its a valid concern all the same.

LOL so apparently I accidentally magnetized the barrel to my AR-15 ... DOH!

@vwbusguy @kilroy_was_here

Pretty sure thats an accurate description :)

@katrinatransfem Thanks so much, I will review.

@katrinatransfem

Then that is quite concerning.. Can you point me to some links on AI specifically designed for detecting professionalism and any reference to how they dont account for this?

So I decided to eat the 100$ I spent ont he monstrum and order a Sig Sauer Julier3 magnifier to replace it... It is twice the cost at 200$ but I found one that is FDE and the color should match. I am also hoping the better quality brand here is going to get me a better eye-box.

@kilroy_was_here hahah i mean the rockies are extraordinary in terms of the animals and views there for sure.. I am still amazed by my experiences there... But historically speaking far less impressive :)

@katrinatransfem

Well few things.

There is a big difference between asking if someone is within the range of professionalism vs asking to make an image more professional. When asking to make an image more professional it will naturally make the image as close to the "average" image as possible, this means making it white.

This isnt the same as the AI thinking white is a requirement for professionalism, as there may very well be outliers that are non-white and still considered professional.

What it boils down to is when changing the image it had no idea that clothing and hairstyles (things we can change) should be prefered over eye color or skin color.. So it didnt bother to prioritize

That said if they were to create an AI specifically designed to check professionalism one would hope it would design in the proper considerations that realize these aspects, it wouldnt be hard to do.
