Re: [AFMUG] OT still a bit of hope and optimism

2020-04-28 Thread Sean Heskett
So then once a social media platform is integrated into our society our
government should step in with heavy handed regulation and decide for the
company what is right and what is wrong?  Would that not then be
suppressing that company’s  freedom of speech too?

What if that company wasn’t an American company, what if it was a Chinese
or Russian company?  What if the company was American but the regulating
government was foreign?

I ask because we now have platforms like tiktok which is Chinese operating
here in America.  Do they have protected speech?  Do I have protected
speech on their platform?  Does someone in India get protected speech on
the platform if the viewer is in America?

 I think what he is referring to is that there is an over abundance of
 the product available to manufacture/distribute.I grew up as a farm kid
 and when we were young, every farmer had pigs, beef cattle (we called them
 feeder cattle) and dairy.   Now, it has all moved to highly efficient,
 large operations.   Most farmers can’t make any money as a small dairy or
 hog operation, and it is way too much work for what you can make.  So
 everything consolidated into large, efficient operations.As many know,
 they have been dumping milk because they have to milk the cows, they cannot
 skip a rotation or the cows get infections (mastitis).   Same with the
 large pig operations.   They have pigs that are mature and have to moved
 out of the feed lots/buildings.   This is due to the cost of continuing to
 feed them, and the need to make room for the smaller ones that are coming
 in regardless.   So next week back where I grew up, they are starting to
 shoot the pigs, and they’ll have to bury them.  So what is going to happen
 is that we will be killing pigs and burying them, but there will be no meat
 on the shelves because of the meat packing plant issue.   I supposed it is
 more accurately called manufacturing rather than distribution, however, I
 might argue feed and water are the raw materials and the growing/finishing
 is the manufacturing, it is the long pole in the tent for timing.   Meat
 packing is a pretty short time period and it is probably manufacturing, but
 only the tail end of it.   It takes 6-9 months to grow a hog to slaughter
 weight, and 3-5 days to get it to your table.



 I am not commenting on whether his comments are right or wrong, but my
 wager is that in two weeks meat will be the next toilet paper if it isn’t
 already.   As you said, I am not sure how well that will work to force them
 to stay open, but things are going to get very nuts of we have 3-4 weeks of
 most meat packing plants being closed.  Of course most of the issue will be
 over-reaction like the toilet paper thing.



 Really sad to see farmers have to destroy finished hogs and stores with
 no meat in them.   But, like the sheetrock shortage 20 years ago, the

Why is that surprising. How many people did we put in country throughout
the war? There are 330 million here. If we had put 330 million through
Vietnam, we would have "won" and lost even more.

Re: [AFMUG] What Really Happened in Wuhan

2020-04-28 Thread Jason McKemie
Fake meat and lab grown meat are probably the future.  Lab grown meat
specifically is cleaner, uses less space, scales better, and is infinitely
more humane than the way we're doing mass meat production now. I don't
think anyone is arguing that it can replace a good, small/local farm raised
steak. It can definitely replace what passes for meat at most fast food
establishments, however.

You stated:
“as long as your house doesnt integrate into multiple facets of society,
including government thats 100% true”

That Statement infers a large house.

Where’s the line in the sand?

If my social media platform integrates into some facets of society, but not
all, including some government, but not all, is that ok?

Just curious

I think what he is referring to is that there is an over abundance of the 
product available to manufacture/distribute.I grew up as a farm kid and 
when we were young, every farmer had pigs, beef cattle (we called them feeder 
cattle) and dairy.   Now, it has all moved to highly efficient, large 
operations.   Most farmers can’t make any money as a small dairy or hog 
operation, and it is way too much work for what you can make.  So everything 
consolidated into large, efficient operations.As many know, they have been 
dumping milk because they have to milk the cows, they cannot skip a rotation or 
the cows get infections (mastitis).   Same with the large pig operations.   
They have pigs that are mature and have to moved out of the feed 
lots/buildings.   This is due to the cost of continuing to feed them, and the 
need to make room for the smaller ones that are coming in regardless.   So next 
week back where I grew up, they are starting to shoot the pigs, and they’ll 
have to bury them.  So what is going to happen is that we will be killing pigs 
and burying them, but there will be no meat on the shelves because of the meat 
packing plant issue.   I supposed it is more accurately called manufacturing 
rather than distribution, however, I might argue feed and water are the raw 
materials and the growing/finishing is the manufacturing, it is the long pole 
in the tent for timing.   Meat packing is a pretty short time period and it is 
probably manufacturing, but only the tail end of it.   It takes 6-9 months to 
grow a hog to slaughter weight, and 3-5 days to get it to your table.  

 

I am not commenting on whether his comments are right or wrong, but my wager is 
that in two weeks meat will be the next toilet paper if it isn’t already.   As 
you said, I am not sure how well that will work to force them to stay open, but 
things are going to get very nuts of we have 3-4 weeks of most meat packing 
plants being closed.  Of course most of the issue will be over-reaction like 
the toilet paper thing.   

 

Really sad to see farmers have to destroy finished hogs and stores with no meat 
in them.   But, like the sheetrock shortage 20 years ago, the antifreeze 
shortage 15 years ago, the LCD screen shortage (whenever that was ) these 
highly consolidated, highly efficient, low margin supply chains don’t deal with 
disruption very well.  Not really anyone’s fault, but tough to see.

I just did a Google search, and there seem to be articles saying the robots are 
coming, and other articles saying they aren’t.

 

Maybe I need to try that “plant meat”.  Although that’s blasphemy, since many 
of my customers make their living raising pigs or cows.

I think what he is referring to is that there is an over abundance of the 
product available to manufacture/distribute.I grew up as a farm kid and 
when we were young, every farmer had pigs, beef cattle (we called them feeder 
cattle) and dairy.   Now, it has all moved to highly efficient, large 
operations.   Most farmers can’t make any money as a small dairy or hog 
operation, and it is way too much work for what you can make.  So everything 
consolidated into large, efficient operations.As many know, they have been 
dumping milk because they have to milk the cows, they cannot skip a rotation or 
the cows get infections (mastitis).   Same with the large pig operations.   
They have pigs that are mature and have to moved out of the feed 
lots/buildings.   This is due to the cost of continuing to feed them, and the 
need to make room for the smaller ones that are coming in regardless.   So next 
week back where I grew up, they are starting to shoot the pigs, and they’ll 
have to bury them.  So what is going to happen is that we will be killing pigs 
and burying them, but there will be no meat on the shelves because of the meat 
packing plant issue.   I supposed it is more accurately called manufacturing 
rather than distribution, however, I might argue feed and water are the raw 
materials and the growing/finishing is the manufacturing, it is the long pole 
in the tent for timing.   Meat packing is a pretty short time period and it is 
probably manufacturing, but only the tail end of it.   It takes 6-9 months to 
grow a hog to slaughter weight, and 3-5 days to get it to your table.  

 

I am not commenting on whether his comments are right or wrong, but my wager is 
that in two weeks meat will be the next toilet paper if it isn’t already.   As 
you said, I am not sure how well that will work to force them to stay open, but 
things are going to get very nuts of we have 3-4 weeks of most meat packing 
plants being closed.  Of course most of the issue will be over-reaction like 
the toilet paper thing.   

 

Really sad to see farmers have to destroy finished hogs and stores with no meat 
in them.   But, like the sheetrock shortage 20 years ago, the antifreeze 
shortage 15 years ago, the LCD screen shortage (whenever that was ) these 
highly consolidated, highly efficient, low margin supply chains don’t deal with 
disruption very well.  Not really anyone’s fault, but tough to see.

I know, there seems to be an inordinate amount of time and money put into fake 
meat.   As you say, growing up on a cattle, hog and dairy farm, fake meat is 
blasphemy.   It just isn’t the same smoking/grilling chicken thighs and

manufacturing, it is the long pole in the tent for timing. Meat packing is a 
pretty short time period and it is probably manufacturing, but only the tail 
end of it. It takes 6-9 months to grow a hog to slaughter weight, and 3-5 days 
to get it to your table. 

I am not commenting on whether his comments are right or wrong, but my wager is 
that in two weeks meat will be the next toilet paper if it isn’t already. As 
you said, I am not sure how well that will work to force them to stay open, but 
things are going to get very nuts of we have 3-4 weeks of most meat packing 
plants being closed. Of course most of the issue will be over-reaction like the 
toilet paper thing. 

Really sad to see farmers have to destroy finished hogs and stores with no meat 
in them. But, like the sheetrock shortage 20 years ago, the antifreeze shortage 
15 years ago, the LCD screen shortage (whenever that was  ) these highly 
consolidated, highly efficient, low margin supply chains don’t deal with 
disruption very well. Not really anyone’s fault, but tough to see.

Re: [AFMUG] What Really Happened in Wuhan

2020-04-28 Thread David Coudron
I think what he is referring to is that there is an over abundance of the 
product available to manufacture/distribute.I grew up as a farm kid and 
when we were young, every farmer had pigs, beef cattle (we called them feeder 
cattle) and dairy.   Now, it has all moved to highly efficient, large 
operations.   Most farmers can’t make any money as a small dairy or hog 
operation, and it is way too much work for what you can make.  So everything 
consolidated into large, efficient operations.As many know, they have been 
dumping milk because they have to milk the cows, they cannot skip a rotation or 
the cows get infections (mastitis).   Same with the large pig operations.   
They have pigs that are mature and have to moved out of the feed 
lots/buildings.   This is due to the cost of continuing to feed them, and the 
need to make room for the smaller ones that are coming in regardless.   So next 
week back where I grew up, they are starting to shoot the pigs, and they’ll 
have to bury them.  So what is going to happen is that we will be killing pigs 
and burying them, but there will be no meat on the shelves because of the meat 
packing plant issue.   I supposed it is more accurately called manufacturing 
rather than distribution, however, I might argue feed and water are the raw 
materials and the growing/finishing is the manufacturing, it is the long pole 
in the tent for timing.   Meat packing is a pretty short time period and it is 
probably manufacturing, but only the tail end of it.   It takes 6-9 months to 
grow a hog to slaughter weight, and 3-5 days to get it to your table.

cannibals eating long pig.
My parents took me to it at the drive in.  There was a human size looking

I was plenty enthused to watch it.  I guess my first exposure to snuff porn.

Over the course of her illness she called 911 TWICE and was transported by
ambulance back to the ER.  At least two different ambulance crews in

all exposed to her multiple times.  Despite this, as of yesterday the

Sad story in the news here yesterday was about a couple that died within a
couple hours of each other in the hospital.  Both had tested positive for
COVID-19 and been sent home to quarantine.  He then fell and hit his head
so both were admitted to the hospital and they both died there.  The story
said that he didn’t die from COVID but from “head trauma”.  He was 94 and

[AFMUG] School public wifi

2020-04-28 Thread Steve Jones
There needs to be a law

schools should not manage their own wireless network. we spent a good deal
of time with one district getting them set up for COVID response. I reached
out to all the other districts too.

Im seeing so much garbage in the air. one location has APs running all over
5.1/8 Its like, come on man, I know what the take rate on the COVID
hotspots is and I know your district population. You do not need this many
access points overlapping every single channel.

Im going to have to drive by and see what they did. I had to deal with
finding a clear enough channel to get my colocated backhaul up so i forgot
to collect the macs and identify the hardware vendor, but there has to be
25 radios/virtual radios live with the district ESSIDs in that town of 600.
But im envisioning showing up and finding 100 linksys routers in the
schools windows.

We did ours clean, with care given to not impact others where possible.

Having to poke and hope a clean channel, I probably am going to get a dead
horsehead in my bed from a neighbor WISP now. FCC just needs to say only
WISPS can touch wireless stuf above 4 EIRP

yes our social distancing has been working great!  it's about to not be working 
great...the governments plan is basically to lift enough restrictions to not 
overwhelm our hospitals, once the hospitals fill up again they will issue new 
orders to stay at home.  it's a network capacity plannning issue at this point.

People keep saying that other areas are going to become hot zones or hot spots. 
 Why?  If these areas have been in lockdown or even just social distancing, why 
would they all of a sudden become hot spots?  People keep saying that and 
they’re saying it about our area too.  The thing is though that Wisconsin and 
Illinois had “detected” cases before New York did.  Worldmeters.info lists the 
first 20 “confirmed” cases in the US.  2 of those were in Illinois and I 
believe the 12th case in the US was in Wisconsin.  The Wisconsin case recovered 
(she calls it a dehumanizing experience) and wrote an article about her 
experience.  The thing to point out is that this was before any social 
distancing or basically any precautions were being taken even by medical 
personnel.  She went in to the ER when she started getting sick (which was btw 
2 days after she returned from Portugal by way of 17 hour layover in Amsterdam) 
and was sent home.  Over the course of her illness she called 911 TWICE and was 
transported by ambulance back to the ER.  At least two different ambulance 
crews in addition to the people in the ER waiting room plus any ER personnel 
were all exposed to her multiple times.  Despite this, as of yesterday the 
reported number of COVID deaths in Wisconsin is 281 for the entire state.   
That positive test was FEBRUARY 5th.   I’m not disputing that this is 
contagious and that there are segments of the population that are at much 
greater risk than others.  I’m just asking what is the logic that says that a 
“hot spot” will happen here 6 weeks after it was here (WITHOUT PRECAUTIONS or 
social distancing in place)?

 

Sad story in the news here yesterday was about a couple that died within a 
couple hours of each other in the hospital.  Both had tested positive for 
COVID-19 and been sent home to quarantine.  He then fell and hit his head so 
both were admitted to the hospital and they both died there.  The story said 
that he didn’t die from COVID but from “head trauma”.  He was 94 and she was 93.

Re: [AFMUG] Airfiber 11 radios

2020-04-28 Thread Mathew Howard
Really, if you're doing a link longer than 7-8 miles, you should be looking
at different radios. You're going to have a much better link with radios
with better tx power.

But that still leaves the problem that I just don't like their dishes...
and there are good reasons to use a different brand of dish instead.

If you have a link (depending on where you are) longer than 7-8 miles, you need

 Why?  If these areas have been in lockdown or even just social distancing, why

they’re saying it about our area too.  The thing is though that Wisconsin and 
Illinois had “detected” cases before New York did.  Worldmeters.info lists the 
first 20 “confirmed” cases in the US.  2 of those were in Illinois and I 
believe the 12th case in the US was in Wisconsin.  The Wisconsin case recovered 
(she calls it a dehumanizing experience) and wrote an article about her 
experience.  The thing to point out is that this was before any social 
distancing or basically any precautions were being taken even by medical 
personnel.  She went in to the ER when she started getting sick (which was btw 
2 days after she returned from Portugal by way of 17 hour layover in Amsterdam) 
and was sent home.  Over the course of her illness she called 911 TWICE and was 
transported by ambulance back to the ER.  At least two different ambulance 
crews in addition to the people in the ER waiting room plus any ER personnel 
were all exposed to her multiple times.  Despite this, as of yesterday the 
reported number of COVID deaths in Wisconsin is 281 for the entire state.   
That positive test was FEBRUARY 5th.   I’m not disputing that this is

Sad story in the news here yesterday was about a couple that died within a 
couple hours of each other in the hospital.  Both had tested positive for 
COVID-19 and been sent home to quarantine.  He then fell and hit his head so 
both were admitted to the hospital and they both died there.  The story said

I hope you’re right that the medical community has learned how to treat it, but

Regarding a vaccine, one interesting piece of information I read was that even 
if they develop a successful and safe vaccine (many challenges including the 
sensitization problem), then they have to scale up vaccine production. Right 
now most vaccines are just for each new wave of schoolchildren, this would have

I can't quite put my finger on it but something really pushes my buttons
about this thread... I guess I still have lingering feelings about
supporting the underdog.

Now I'm sitting here embarrassed that I ever stood up for the underdog
because they have now become like everyone else.

Sad story in the news here yesterday was about a couple that died within
a couple hours of each other in the hospital.  Both had tested positive for
COVID-19 and been sent home to quarantine.  He then fell and hit his head
so both were admitted to the hospital and they both died there.  The story
said that he didn’t die from COVID but from “head trauma”.  He was 94 and

Re: [AFMUG] OT Hope?

2020-04-28 Thread James Howard
People keep saying that other areas are going to become hot zones or hot spots. 
 Why?  If these areas have been in lockdown or even just social distancing, why 
would they all of a sudden become hot spots?  People keep saying that and 
they’re saying it about our area too.  The thing is though that Wisconsin and 
Illinois had “detected” cases before New York did.  Worldmeters.info lists the 
first 20 “confirmed” cases in the US.  2 of those were in Illinois and I 
believe the 12th case in the US was in Wisconsin.  The Wisconsin case recovered 
(she calls it a dehumanizing experience) and wrote an article about her 
experience.  The thing to point out is that this was before any social 
distancing or basically any precautions were being taken even by medical 
personnel.  She went in to the ER when she started getting sick (which was btw 
2 days after she returned from Portugal by way of 17 hour layover in Amsterdam) 
and was sent home.  Over the course of her illness she called 911 TWICE and was 
transported by ambulance back to the ER.  At least two different ambulance 
crews in addition to the people in the ER waiting room plus any ER personnel 
were all exposed to her multiple times.  Despite this, as of yesterday the 
reported number of COVID deaths in Wisconsin is 281 for the entire state.   
That positive test was FEBRUARY 5th.   I’m not disputing that this is 
contagious and that there are segments of the population that are at much 
greater risk than others.  I’m just asking what is the logic that says that a 
“hot spot” will happen here 6 weeks after it was here (WITHOUT PRECAUTIONS or 
social distancing in place)?

Sad story in the news here yesterday was about a couple that died within a 
couple hours of each other in the hospital.  Both had tested positive for 
COVID-19 and been sent home to quarantine.  He then fell and hit his head so 
both were admitted to the hospital and they both died there.  The story said 
that he didn’t die from COVID but from “head trauma”.  He was 94 and she was 93.

Seems like people don’t die on Sundays...or people reporting deaths wait until 
Tuesday to catchup.

It does seem to be trending downward, but that is probably because we are 
seeing NYC numbers trending downward and the rest of the country will start to 
be the hot zones now.

Re: [AFMUG] Airfiber 11 radios

2020-04-28 Thread Nate Burke
I heard another Theory last night that UBNT had too many of the Kits in 
stock, and now they're trying to get them sold off before they start 
offering piecemeal parts again.


Some beancounter probably had their eyes light up when they thought of 
the Kit idea, and it was met with enthusiastic nods around the 
conference table, after seeing all the glossy charts with arrows 
pointing up, and giant dollar signs and Moneybags.  Then nobody bought 
them, so other parts are just magically 'unavailable' now to drive up 
kit sales.

If you have a link (depending on where you are) longer than 7-8 miles,
