Testing to install #openSUSE #Leap16 #RC. First impressions:

The new installer has no #Finnish localization, and as far as I can see, the installer is not included in #Weblate #L10N so that I could translate it myself.

The storage setup is a disaster. Unless one blindly accepts whatever is suggested, things turn either difficult or downright impossible. Eg. setting up a dedicated /usr/local or a custom mountpoint like my /local is a no-go. #linux #floss 1/2

Ich habe hier noch ein ferngesteuertes Boot, das beim letzten Umzug beschädigt wurde. Das würde ich gerne wieder flott bekommen, weiß aber nicht wie ich das geklebt bekomme. Hat jemand zufällig einen Tipp dafür? Leider weiß ich nicht aus was für einem Kunststoff es gebaut wurde.

Es wurde irgendwann mal als "Atlantic Yacht" von einem chinesischen Hersteller verkauft. Gekauft habe ich es vor ca 12 Jahren gebraucht.

*** Edit: Danke an alle die geteilt und Tipps gegeben haben, Material ist bestellt, geht dann bald los. ***

Today was the Los Alamos Airport Open House: losalamosnm.us/Events-Director

They invited the R/C club to fly. We got to take off from and land on the runway, how cool is that?

Only one serious crash, which sadly was Phil's very pretty Spitfire. I'm not sure if Dave's combat wing hitting mine counts as a crash; the propeller came off but I was able to glide the wing back down and it sustained no damage.

RC Airplanes are a wonderful and relaxing (depending on your craft, lol) hobby.
And it's also quite affordable with ready-to-go starter kits for just over $100.

But if you want to join an RC club to get access to an actual flying field, you have to shell out $50-$85 per year for the AMA (Academy of Model Aeronautics) membership in the US, and an additional $100 per year for most flying fields.

I mean, if you're serious about your hobby (any hobby), that might indeed be chump-change to you, but it's really not a trivial amount of money at all.

Continued thread

Am unlikely to get into RC vehicles because lack of space, and cost and .. yeah. same reasons I bounced hard off of local Model railway group. Train people are lovely people, but not my local group. Anyhue since Pandemic any hobby that requires me to leave my house is a no-go ::sigh::
