    Yo, what do you play?

    Radio tech is cool, ever knew one person who dug it. My childhood bestie’s dad. He finessed the hey outta his van and just chilled out in his 70s style decked out phat ass van and would listen to his RV.

      Right now I have a very solid rotation of TTRPGs:

      • On Sundays, I play Pathfinder Second Edition with some people I met online.
      • On Tuesdays, I play Star Wars Saga Edition with people I’ve known for years.
      • On Saturdays, I ordinarily play Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4e, but the campaign is sorta on hiatus right now while the GM prepares for the next leg of our adventure.

      I also have a solo game of Pathfinder 2e using the Mythic Gamemaster Emulator going on that is just… insane, it really went out of control fast. It started with three guys, Dave, Grimgir, and Goru, who wanted to find Dave’s missing father. They went to a place a few days’ journey away from the capital and came back to find that the local wizard academy had started a coup so they could have their own independent government, Dave’s dad is a massive criminal with a rap sheet a mile long, and he got turned in to the government by the revolution he helped start. Where I last left off, Dave and co. ended the siege of the academy by deactivating their defenses from the outside, and then asked dad why he did it. Turns out he had sold his soul to a devil long before Dave was born in exchange for a perfect marriage and a happy family; they found that out moments before justice was carried out on him.

      Radio is one of the most complicated fields of electrical engineering. What should work doesn’t, and what shouldn’t work does. It’s amazing that these little gizmos work at all, given that the guy who discovered radio waves for the first time said he thought it was completely pointless. When my class wrote an essay on the most influential technologies of the early 20th century, everyone else wrote about the car. I wrote about the radio, because it paved the way for nearly every wireless technology we have today. If radio didn’t exist, we’d all be stuck on landlines and ethernet forever.
