Hey guys, I know this isnt a question regarding HAM… so I apologize for that… But I couldnt think of another community that I could ask, since my knowledge of radio comms is so limited....
I am still skeptical over all of this. It is just my nature. I am in the “I want to believe” camp, but just cant bring myself to believe it until I see it. I believe Fravor saw a tic-tac shaped object that defied physics. I believe we see UAPs all the time. I am not so sure that we havent developed some technology somewhere, that allows us to do unimaginable things like these craft have done. I know the arguments as to why it makes no sense that they are where they are doing what they are doing… I get the counters to what I think… but it doesnt make me stop thinking that it is most likely what it is.
Grusch (sp) is not Fravor. If he is being honest, great… that is great. But there is something in his body language i didnt like. I feel like he enjoys the spotlight to tell his story, more than he enjoys tellling his story.
To answer your question though, lets just say for a moment that what he is saying is true… that we have recovered craft, and some contained non human organics, and that they are aliens. I dont thikn we hear anything fast. I think there will continue to be meetings that get hushed up, while they formulate a system of responses. The public wil be the last to know.
Also in regards to this being a smokescreen for the Hunter Biden garbo… lets not forget that this could also be a smokescreen for the torrent of Trump indictments and legal woes. It seems like this distraction serves both sides equally… which to me, makes it all more of a viable diversion.
I watched end to end, a hearing that could really alter our lives as we know it… and I couldnt stop thinking about was “I bet Burchett is impossible to be around.” and “The lack of animation on Luna’s face is either due to gallons of botox, or she is an alien in our midst.”
I’m getting a 64gb steam deck probably next month. It will be used as a portable console and a desktop PC for work (desktop reliant websites). The most heavy game I’ll play is Stray (no 1st person shooters, MMOs or huge open worlds) with an hour or two of play time a day....
I dont think anything is necessary, other than upgrading your storage. I considered an SD card, and decided the price break was just better overall for an ssd. I got a western digital 512 for like 55 bucks I think.
The hardest part of the swap was getting the case apart. I did watch a couple of videos for tips before I did it though… it made it pretty painless. the biggest pro tip was to start the separation of the case by one of the trigger buttons, and just run a credit card along it to pop the tabs. Another suggestion is if you dont have a set of tiny screwdrivers, i would recommend getting a cheapo kit. I had one I made due with, but even it was slightly too big for the task.
Like I said, I would watch a couple of vids so you know what to do as you proceed, how to flash the new ssd with the os, etc. It really isnt that hard. I am not too terribly of a tech savvy person and was able to do it.
I just got the bottom dollar deck, and it came with a case btw. I bought a cheap dock off of Aliexpress and it works fine. I think I paid under $25 for it… i am certain you could probably get the same one on amazon for ~the same price. I definitely wouldnt buy the valve dock. If you dont have a controller, the world is your oyster. I bought a cheapo $30 bitdo.
I think the brand of screen protector I bought was Ivoler, and it was a very easy install… it came with a “frame” to square the glass install.
i realize this is sort of an oddball post, but thought I would put it out there to see if anyone has any advice… I posted a couple of weeks ago, requesting advice for a controller… after reading the many responses (thanks to the community!) I went with the cheapo $30 8bitdo wireless option. I finally got my dock for the deck...
Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision has been described as the largest in tech history. It deserves scrutiny.

I was looking at this game, and it was what literally made me pull the trigger on a steamdeck… It should be arriving today, and i hope to have the ssd swapped, reimaged, and get that installed so i can play some this evening!
If you’re waiting for a steam deck to be available i have good news. The problem was that they used all of the locktite in the world on one of the screws on my steamdeck which made changing the ssd a PITA on mine, i ended up destroying that screw. I’m sure they’ll get more locktite abd begin shipping to you soon. I use...
I just bought the base version, and it should be here next week. I bought a 20 dollar docking station from AliExpress, a 54 dollar 512gb ssd from amazon, and an aftermarket antiglare/screen protector. I am still well under what I would have spent for the highest tier.
Ive been wanting a mobile gaming platform, and i could no longer deny the steamdeck. It beings the steamgames i would like to play from a couch and adds the options for emulators my pi couldnt handle. I also feel like the next gen will have a mich higher price point, as well as more options that would only range higher and higher… So i figured now is as good of a time as any.
I wondered if anyone had any experience with a controller that they used while docked? If the 20-30 8bitdo is as good as a one of the premium controllers, id prefer to save some money, since I don’t own a console. If thought I’d ask the community, to see if anyone had any experience to share!
It is not at all what I pictured when I read the books. It reminds me of engineers from Prometheus and Alien: Covenant. I’m sure the actor will do a good job, but the look is not what I expected.
I am a huge fan of the book… I am not at all upset over the look… I love it. I was upset about some of the things that got cut from the Denis film, but still loved it. I am excited for the next installment.
He was an absentee coach the first time around. Hes a sideshow people turn out in droves to see. I can’t wait to see who dies first of a heart attack…my fat old ass from obesity and general stress, or him from cocaine and roids.
"Joerg Arnu’s love of Area 51 saw him move to the Nevada desert and build the world’s most comprehensive database about the mysterious military base. Ever since his homes were raided by federal agents eight months ago, he’s been trying to figure out why. "
My guess is his being raided had something to do with the “most comprehensive database” about a military base.
I feel like this, coupled with bot activity, has ruined the web for me. I find myself widely using it as much as i used to. Nothing is reliable really... Most review sites are just mindlessly strung together aggregates of other review sites, which are mindlessly strung together aggregates of other review sites (repeat ad infinitum). There seem to be increasing numbers of YT channels that are just bad ai generated scripts, read by a generated voice.
The signal is increasingly just washed out by the noise.
