It's a blast to play. Took about 6 tries to finish the game. The difficulty spike at the end is kinda crazy. Definitely recommend getting it before/if Nintendo takes it down.

I do enjoy my morserino-32. It was an educational experience to build and it has definitely helped my cw comprehension

I bought a pretty basic safety razor from maggard about 10 years ago and still love it. The biggest thing to learn and invest in is what blades and lather you like. I started off buying a blade sampler pack from them and settled on astra blades. i'll change up my lather/soap sometimes. Also a nice brush is good to have.

Before there was an Internet, before there were Cellphones, before there was Zoom or WebEx or Skype or anyone of a number of Voice over the Internet (VOIP); there was Ham Radio. The promise of talking to people not just in our own community but all over the world made the idea of Ham Radio exciting.

The MRHS in cooperation with our good friends at the Cipher History Museum will send a coded message in 5-letter groups via the facilities of coast stations KPH on Saturday July 22, 2023 Pacific time. The message will be encrypted using the famous Enigma code machine and is an authentic message sent by a U-boat in the North Atlantic in 1942.

That urge for a new radio for me looks like comparison hypnosis or rabbit holing.

I’ll see someone post on here/mastodon about a new radio or technology. Then I start checking out the specs. Then I start checking the specs of similar items. On to deciding if I need the newest model though because it has a few more features that I “need”. Oh wait, the other thing has a better this or that.

4 hours later, I have my credit card out and about to check out and then it dawns on me:

Oh wait, do I actually need this?

…yes. Of course. SWIPE

Also the 7300 is great. Congrats and nice find in Japan.
