With GPS but not connected to my phone constantly, I have been pretty happy with battery life.

I went the Heltec V4 route and DIY'ed and it was not difficult. I am happy to share more if you are interested and DM me.

The Heltec V4 is power hungry compared to others but also has the most power for TX(some firmware shenanigans makes this not always the case but it is improving). If you do not care so much about long battery life it is a great option. To give perspective with a 3000 mah battery I am still lasting days.

Location "Spoofing" (lemmy.world)

Hey folks I recently saw a node pop up that was just shy of 1000 miles away. I wanted to double check my understanding of how the location of nodes is determined.

Theoretically this person could have set the lat/long hard coded in the settings and could be shown anywhere. I am assuming that is what happened here as that sort of distance seems crazy to me. They did have 7 hops to get to me but even then I am dubious.

Thinking about this more I am guessing MQTT could be at play as well and I need to do some more reading there.

I think you may be looking at the wrong Greg Brown, as there are two popular musicians with that name.

The cake Greg Brown looks to of been born in 1969 or 1970.

I love a good Hamme film. Thanks for putting this together and I will jump in this week.

I broke out my keys and there are a handful that fit the bill based off what I can gather from your photo, so I won't venture a guess. That white powder though is a common trait called "bloom" for some Russula. Cool stuff I have never seen that in Indiana before. Beautiful picture.

I can see why you gave up on Russula ID's. I kept coming across a wide range of colors for species. From purple to olive for the same species! Mushrooms are so strange and that is why they are fun.

I am a sucker for kaiju films. I am there.

Hey Magpie, mind sharing the region the mushroom was found and I will do some digging in the books.

I have similar purple Russula in Northern Indiana and I know I hunted down a species once.

I ended up grabbing a Penguin after your review. I am loving the sheep's foot profile. Thanks for all the effort you put in here.

I watched every Evil Bong movie in October. It was enjoyable but man were some stinkers part way through the run. I will forever think of those terrible songs they slapped across the series "God Smokes weed" being at the top. Favorite part is they must of hit up the local strip club every time shooting started for the naked Girls, they are different every time.

I'll chalk up Evil Bong 666 as my favorite.

Is Colorado a hotbed of knife manufacturing?

[–] Bigboye57@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Merry Christmas my friend. Thank you for the write up as always. The allure of a set of three knives probably was enough to still get plenty of these guys sold.

Ole boy Shep checking them out.

Dog

 

With the winter coming to Indiana finding mushrooms dies down but I came across these guys the other day. Definitely a Tricholoma but not exactly sure on species, do not know much about this genus. Leaning towards Tricholoma portentosum but could be a Grey Knight. Welcoming input and I did not grab a gill shot.

 

Sorry for the bad photo, my dog was not cooperating when I was in the brush getting my photo.

I have never come across a puffball that is as green as this one. Not sure if others have seen this?

 

I am not always the best with gymnopilus identification but pretty sure I have it right. These were found in northern Indiana if that is helpful.

Gill shot(did not have a pocket knife so sorry for being a brute):

I have been hunting hard for these guys as last year I was blanked. Finally found a good cluster for mushroom soup. These are my favorite mushrooms for eating by a long shot.

I love how they blend right in and coincide with when small cluster of oak leaves fall. I would bet that is on purpose so they are not eaten, but my eyes did not fail me this time.

Bonus Eastern box turtle. They are moving around this time of year getting ready to hibernate.

 

There has not been much wind lately and the honey mushrooms have been dumping spores out.

 

Late summer early fall is officially here. I come across these guys every year with the dog. Some made it into a stew I had going and were a great addition.

Came across a nice patch when I was walking my dog in the woods .

I was out this weekend and the river was blown out. But a good ole pile took pity on me and jumped on the line. This time of year they often have red sore disease on them and that is what you are seeing on his flank, thankfully most of them survive without too much trouble.

 

So happy that Spring fishing is in full swing. This is up on northern Indiana and ignore the cluttered canoe bottom as I was scrambling for my net to make sure I landed that smallie. Best one of the year thua far.

I just wanted to post two things. Spodosols are the best soil order and Spodosols are the best soil order. I do not give a damn about productivity, just look at that thing and tell me otherwise.
