The radio will run, but sometimes no sound will come on, other times it will and later just stops. Sometimes turning the knob a bit will help, but not always. A lot of times it runs fine.
Any thoughts on if the volume issue is any easy fix? Should I just let it be? Would you know what the radio is worth? As far as what it's worth, I'm just curious and really don't want to part with it.
Calling all Hackers !
The Ninth Annual 26 Hour @HPR New Years Eve Show is about to start.
Listen live, say "hi".

Spread the word.
Okay yes, the questions have started rolling in and so to avoid repeating myself:
- Email is the Original Decentralized Social Network, thus impressive
- It might never die
- But it will probably be mostly centralized, already is being so
- Security has moved to an "origin-oriented" approach, slowly dooming self-hosting (take note, fediverse)
- PGP model hasn't worked for 30 years, won't by this point
- A great way to get letters, a bad way to do cool things
That's all for now.
The Ninth Annual New Years Eve Show
It’s that time of year again. Time for the 24 hr (26 hr) New Years Eve Show.
For those who don’t know, on New Years Eve 2020-12-31 10:00 UTC (5:00 AM EST), we will have a recording going on the HPR Mumble server for anyone to come on and say “Happy New Years” and talk about whatever they want.
We will leave the recording going until at menos 2021-01-01 12:00 UTC (7:00 AM EST) and then until the conversation stops.

Wednesday morning, a baby bunny is in my driveway. Today two. Adorable. And now, a good sized deer stayed awhile and grazed out back. #deer #babybunny #adorable #wildlife #mademesmile
I don't suffer often from earworms (songs playing in your head), but can say whenever I trim brush in the backyard, I am thinking of HP Lovecraft things. Any work in the front and I hear the theme song from Galavant. #Lovecraft #Galavant #shouldIworry
New here? Remember that Twitter is optimized to make you into passive consumers, by en(r/g)aging you with content that you don't choose yourself.
Here, that doesn't happen. But it also means you're responsible to find people to follow.
It will take some work.
If you're willing to put that in, you'll find a wide variety of friendly people that will be happy to have meaningful conversions and laugh and cry together with you.
Start by searching and looking at who other people follow.
BREAKING: ICANN has voted to REJECT the sale of the .ORG registry to private equity firm Ethos Capital. This is a major victory for the millions of nonprofits, civil society organizations, and individuals who make .ORG their home online. #SaveDotOrg https://www.icann.org/news/blog/icann-board-withholds-consent-for-a-change-of-control-of-the-public-interest-registry-pir https://t.co/sFLcwZqU1B

@pokey Pokey for all it's worth, just fyi, I made a note (anonymously) on open street maps so that a correction can be made.
I found out only yesterday that #Jitsi has dropped #GoogleAnalytics from their public instance https://meet.jit.si/ , which is a great improvement for #privacy ! (They still do analytics, as documented here: https://jitsi.org/security/ , which is a good read for any Jitsi user.)
