Anyway Banjofriday also is #BandcampFriday and while banjoless, today the new album "Companion" by Sluice dropped. Perfect soundtrack for my train back from Gent to Cologne. I preordered it ages ago and was looking forward to the release today. Sluice is just such a fantastic band and sometimes in their back catalog you might find the sound of a banjo as well.

#NorthCarolina #NC #readers, don't forget to come to Arcana in #DurhamNC tomorrow night for drinks and hanging out with me and some other local authors!

It was great speaking at the Chatham County EOC this morning about the growing #RDUMesh #MeshCore network in #RaleighNC #DurhamNC #ChapelHill. #hamradio
#RDUMesh is growing faster than I can keep up. KB2UUL surprised us all this morning with a really well-placed repeater in southeast Wake County. Firefighters in Chapel Hill put up a repeater an hour later that had strong links into the broader #MeshCore deployment. #RaleighNC #DurhamNC #BullCity #ChapelHill #RDU
30+ in-person and 6 zoom attendees for our Mesh 101 workshop at #SplatSpace in #DurhamNC today, covering #Meshtastic, #MeshCore, and #RDUMesh. What a turn-out!
The #RaleighNC #hamradio club RARS installed a #MeshCore repeater on The Eastern at North Hills. This is servicing lower elevation repeaters not just all over Raleigh, but quite a few in #CaryNC and #DurhamNC as well. The #RDUMesh is coming together fast! This is a great time to switch over from #Meshtastic and join us. Or to get started in #LoRaMesh

#DurhamNC real estate news: The owners of the Durham Centre (the ugly blue glass and brown brick thing with the ziggurat top, across from the Carolina Theatre) are sinking $10M into converting the entire first floor of the building into amenities for the employees of companies that lease space there (it's actually largely occupied by Duke Health & related entities).

Lipstick on a pig, to be sure.

Oh also: It'll be rebranded as The Grove Durham. LMAO.

For giggles I drove to #EflandNC today. Over our #RDU #MeshCore network I had a chat with a friend past #DurhamNC. There are still a lot of gaps in the network to fill, but we are getting some reach! #Meshtastic folks should try it out.
