Second CWOps / CWAcademy course complete. I'm on the air using (and slightly obsessed with) CW...so I bought myself a treat. What a beauty!

Did you know that the original Unix devs were so obsessed with efficiency that they designed the "rm" command to have no confirmation prompt? Legend believes this was to save precious milliseconds, as they thought "real Unix users" would never make mistakes. Of course, this led to many accidental deletions and the birth of the infamous "rm -rf /" command, which could wipe out an entire system with a single typo. #unix #linux

@dtabor Yeah I worked on 'expert systems' for pattern recognition in the 90s - it's evolution not revolution

@ure_n8 @chris31633647 No these guys don't stop for a BBQ at the end of the day. The animals are ripped apart by dogs and the remains are buried by their servants. It's all about the "sport" 😕

@chris31633647 @G0MFR I'd hope they at least get some nice hats out of it. It's deer season over here and everyone is filling up their freezer.

@WG_RumblePants No TMS, not even Sky. "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"

West Indies may have got themselves back into the fight with their last 5 overs. They’ll be hoping to finish really strongly now - oh, and as I type there goes a wicket. So probably 155 or thereabouts.

VP8G will hit the airwaves focusing CW. Clever decision by @PG5M because comparing VP8 overall most wanted (#207) is very far away from CW most wanted (#30). There is a list of CW entities in high demand on CW unlike overall most wanted - VP8, KG4, YI, AP, 3C, ST, YI, TG and OD

@G0MFR Yup. Used to live somewhere with a hunt, really boiled my piss when they would block the roads, commit trespass, etc. Wankers. Bunch of stockbrokers cosplaying regency gentry.

@ChrisG1VDP heard that a couple of times with these two - wonder if they can't hear each other or just trying to annoy each other :)
