I currently have a pair of Baofeng UV-5R radios, looking to add to my collection. Just for local range. I've been looking at the Tidradio TD-H3, Quansheng UV-K5, Baofeng UV-17R Pro, and Radtel RT-470X. They each have features that sound good but I can't decide which to get out of these options.

I remember borrowing it from the library back then (well, a few years later anyway), it still sticks in my mind!

Using the arrow keys to go to the entry and pressing shift+delete works for me

The Jeffrey Combs panel is a great one

It's showing me $28.74 to remove ads in Canada right now (maybe more than the 26.25 mentioned due to tax % difference)

I started this one in the middle of my 7 day camping trip last week. Maybe a quarter of the way through right now. Good so far, the first King book I've rear since around Gerald's Game somewhere.

I like that clicking on Next actually starts at the top of the page for me now instead of in the middle somewhere

I'm pretty sure I used one that was terminal based, likely using ncurses. Without searching, I can't recall the name of it, though.

I used XMPP a bit among friends, more so when Google supported it, which was probably after ICQ/AIM/MSN wasn't as popular? I don't really talk to many people anymore, so whatever, heheh :)

It would be nice to see XMPP make some kind of "comeback" ... or some sort of popularity boost like mastodon/lemmy/etc in recent times.

My daughter reads a lot of books checked out via overdrive on her kobo (in Canada), though the search feature on the kobo itself is kind of garbage. We have better luck doing a search with the Libby app on a phone, checking it out, then syncing the kobo.

I use a Kindle myself (purchased on one of the good sales for roughly half price), though primarily via epub files transferred to the Kindle using Calibre. It's a busy UI, but it does work well and has lots of features. Pretty good as an archive of your ebook library.

Any genre, any era - what are some of your favorite live songs ever?

One of my favorites definitely has to be Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb

It's great for keeping forest fires at bay, but I'm getting pretty sick of all this rain!

I'm planning on some camping trips this summer, and I'm just hoping the weather is nice for those days. I just booked some provincial park campsites for week-long trip at the end of July, one park had just two sites left for the two days I'm planning to be there. I'll just have to eat the reservation/change fees if the weather ends up being horrible by then. You can't really leave it for the last minute and hope there is an available site, unfortunately.

Hopefully that gets sorted out! I don't want to miss out on that part of the community from here.

At this point - nothing. I've been less and less happy with that place lately, and this is just the final push. Hopefully I'll find a lot of the same things either here, or somewhere else, or just not at all I guess.

I think modern games in general hold your hand too much. Some small level of hand holding/tutorial is fine, but so many take it way too far. I've gotten bored of a lot of games before they actually started because of that.
