10 "...I'll be taking Thanksgiving and Friday off. I've got a lot of open threads to post, so at least there'll be some pretty pictures and videos. And if there's something big that happens, I might throw up a quick link-and-quote. But otherwise, I'll just be posting open threads and mini-Cafes. -- Ace

Heh. Enjoy the long weekend. Can you give the COBs a day off as well?

14 A friend of mine was a big waterfowl and other critter hunter. He went to Iceland once and they shot Puffins then grilled them on the mountain side and ate them.

He never did elaborate if they were good eating or not.

22 Bat Café returns! 🦇
Owen Gregorian @OwenGregorian
Bats with weirdly giant penis have sex for up to 12 hours in a way never seen in mammals before

Serotine bats that have penises seven times longer and wider than their female counterparts' vaginas are the first known mammals to engage in non-penetrative sex.

Bats with "disproportionately large" penises that don't fit inside the females' vaginas are the only mammals known to have sex without penetration, scientists have discovered. [...]

To better describe the mating behavior of serotine bats, Fasel and his colleagues "are trying to develop a bat porn box, which will be like an aquarium with cameras everywhere," he said.

79 This spring, rumors were swirling that HERBL, one of California’s largest cannabis distribution companies, was on the verge of collapse. So Mike Beaudry, the company’s CEO, sent out an email on May 18 declaring that “these rumors are categorically not true. HERBL continues to be fully operational.”

Less than a month later, HERBL had completely collapsed.

HERBL’s failure left a trail of damage that hurt small pot brands and shorted the state some $17 million in unpaid taxes.

One of the lamebrain ideas behind state sponsored pot was to reduce the crime load for a 'victimless' crime.

Interesting. Is that a philosophical statement? As in, you have to work hard, provide service to others if you want to make money in this world. Or is it a warning, due to past experience at the facility, where some clever dope smoking moron found a loophole in the employee handbook, and managed to do a whole shift of not serving the customers.

182 Hundreds of Dogs Sickened With Mysterious, Potentially Fatal Illness in Several U.S. States
Veterinary laboratories across multiple states are investigating an unusual respiratory illness affecting dogs, urging pet owners to take essential precautions to safeguard their pets’ health. Oregon, Colorado, and New Hampshire have reported cases of the illness, characterized by persistent respiratory disease and pneumonia resistant to antibiotics. Symptoms include coughing, sneezing, nasal or eye discharge, and lethargy. Some instances progress rapidly, causing severe illness within 24 to 36 hours.

The Oregon Department of Agriculture has recorded over 200 cases since mid-August, and are urging pet owners to consult veterinarians if their dogs exhibit symptoms. The department is collaborating with state researchers and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Veterinary Services Laboratory to identify the cause.

The U.S. Airstrikes tonight on Central Iraq are Officially the First Pre-Planned Strikes that have been conducted on Iraqi Territory since the Mass Attacks on U.S. Bases began around October 7th, these Strikes also appear to be much more Significant than any of the previous with several Casualties for the Iranian Militias being claimed so far.

The Statement by CENTCOM also clearly states that the Strikes tonight were directed against “Iran and Iranian-Backed Forces” in Iraq who they claim are both Responsible for the recent Attack

Happy to take it off your hands. Won't know if I can use it until I try. I will say I've never used ribbon solder before, but I can think of places it would come in real handy.

From what little I've been able to find out about it, it seems to be geared mainly toward industrial applications. I'm thinking probably laid down between SMD components and the solder pads on the board. Hit it with some heat and the component leads and solder pads suck it up giving a good solder joint without shorts.

Or at least that's my working theory until someone who knows what the hell they're talking about speaks up.

Well, I will pack a few spools of it in with the ARC-5 Transmitter. It is about 1/4" wide, very thin, and comes on red plastic spools with a large center hole, such that the depth of the solder on the loaded spool is about a quarter inch, or less.
