Back Yard Field Day Guidance Changes
W4BXC has done ARRL Field Day in the back yard for a few years now. While I was trying to figure out what class we'd be operating at a while back, I came across this in the ARRL Field Day FAQ. The 2023 (and earlier) Field Day Packet the question/answer says: Q: We don't have an area club, but we do have a small group of area hams (generally two or three of us get together for operating events).

KDEA quick anti-FUD FAQ to debunk "the KDE is forcing systemd!" hoax—a thread 🧵
Q: Does the Plasma Login Manager require systemd to work?
A: Yes.
Q: So you ARE forcing Plasma users to use systemd!!?!?!
A: No. The Plasma Login Manager is one of probably half a dozen Login Managers (or more) that can boot Plasma. We made PLM because it will give distro creators a cool piece of kit that can (not "must", not "should": *can*) be tacked onto a system to boot into Plasma.

Audubon's Rowe Sanctuary's Crane Camera
The Crane Cam is located on Audubon's Rowe Sanctuary and is a great way to see the Sandhill Cranes on their river roost during the spring migration and other wildlife all year. Since the cranes leave the river to feed during the day, the best times to view are near sunrise and sunset.
