      Aufruf: Hilfe für Meadow

      February 10 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 9 °C

      Auf einer Farm für gerettete Tiere kommt es immer mal vor, dass wir von einem der Vierbeiner Abschied nehmen müssen. Oft haben wir etwas Vorlaufzeit, um extra Zeit mit dem Tier zu verbringen. Trotzdem trifft es mich immer aufs Neue, wenn wir eine neue Nachricht erhalten. DIESE Nachricht hat mich jedoch besonders getroffen.

      Meadow ist eine der zwei Wachhunde, welche tapfer die Ziegen vor Coyoten, Pumas, und anderen Jägern beschützen. Die Hündin ist noch nicht sehr alt, kam aber im Dezember in Kontakt mit einem Gras, dessen Samen sich im Tier absetzen und schlimme Entzündungen auslösen können. So schlimm, dass das Tier sterben kann. Letzte Woche war eine erste Not-OP mit einer Überlebenschance von gerade einmal 25% geplant. Der Schock sass bei uns allen tief. Einen Tag vor der OP dann die Nachricht des Arztes: Es gibt eine andere Möglichkeit, eine wesentlich teurere OP, aber mit viel grösserer Überlebenschance. Kostenpunkt: 5000.- Kein Klacks für eine Farm, welche hauptsächlich durch Spenden überlebt.

      Ich bin jetzt 2 Monate hier und habe diese Leute ihr Herzblut für die Tiere opfern sehen. Der Hof ist nicht einfach eine Einkommensquelle, sondern eine Lebenseinstellung, dieses Fleckchen Erde ein bisschen besser zu hinterlassen. Für Katie war klar, dass sie alles für Meadow tun wird, auch wenn diese OP ein tiefes Loch in die Kasse reist. Auf "Drängen" von uns allen hat sie sich schliesslich entschlossen eine "Go Fund Me" Page zu erstellen, so dass eventuell der eine oder die andere die OP unterstützen kann.

      Vielleicht findet sich ja auch unter euch jemand, der "en Batze" übrig hat. Wie sagt SRF immer? Jede Rappä zählt.

      Ihr findet alle nötigen Informationen unter https://gofund.me/712b7473 oder könnt mir auch einen Betrag per Twint überweisen, welchen ich dann für euch einzahlen werde.

      What to do with drones that are flying i

      January 17, 2023 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 3 °C

      Cases of drones being used for voyeurism are incredibly common, with a few well-documented cases highlighting just how disturbing drones can be in the wrong hands. In recent years, traditional security system protection is mainly aimed at ground threats, resulting in increasingly prominent threats and harassment from air targets. For drones that are in an illegal flying state, they need to be reversed through detection and identification technology. At present, the drone jammer mainly adopts four countermeasures. The use of launchers to catapult nets is more common, but this method has a limited range for drones.

      With public safety and national security on the line, it really was only a matter of time before anti-drone technology was developed. Here, as a professional manufacturer of wireless signal jammers, we first express our position: if we want to use the wireless signal jammers produced by our company for illegal activities or non-goodwill purposes, we firmly oppose and refuse to sell them. Recently, They want to buy a suitable wireless signal jammer from us. The purpose is also very clear, that is, it is used to block surveillance cameras. The data transmission of surveillance cameras is divided into the wired transmission and wireless transmission, and what the wireless signal jammer can achieve is to shield the surveillance cameras from the wireless transmission mode.

      3G 4G Cell Phone Jammer
      Therefore, when some customers ask us about wireless signal jammers, through questions about some actual use purposes and functional requirements, the customer's reply is obviously slow or deliberately concealed, and we will soon be vigilant about this. The Centre on Monday said the use of cellular signal jammer, gps blocker or other signal jamming device is illegal, except specifically permitted by the government, warning e-commerce platforms against illegally selling such wireless mobile signal jammer online. Although the pilot responsible for the drone was only flying for fun and claimed to have lost control of it, the incident opened the national consciousness to the dangers of drone use.

      By realizing navigation signal interference, the interference of drones can be blocked.No-fly zone, home point deception, route deception, etc.can be achieved through satellite positioning signal decoys. Interference blocking class Jammer interference: It can effectively block the communication between the drone and the console, cut off the remote control signal, data transmission and image transmission signal of the drone, so that the drone enters a self-protection state after the signal is lost, so it can achieve forced landing or driving.

      In fact, it is necessary to distinguish the working mode of the surveillance camera. Cellular networks are a way of long-distance communication without the use of cables, this system is a modern style of communication that was previously communicated using a landline-based telephone. This event proved just how drones can be when used to breach security, as they are too small to be detected by standard radar equipment. After all, the lawn where the drone was recovered was the same lawn where the presidential helicopter lands. Without security measures, it would have been easy to mount an attack using the drone.

      It is precisely because the purpose of some individuals using wireless signal jammers is not simple, and they do not understand the technical parameters of the surveillance cameras that need to be shielded, so we will not do targeted cooperation for such needs, and it is reasonable to directly refuse. They have also interfered with emergency response operations, caused delays of commercial flights, and used to smuggle contraband into correctional facilities. Countermeasures against illegally operating drones Alarmed at its open online sale, the department warned all e-commerce companies from selling or facilitating the sale of wireless jammers on their online platforms, stressing that private sector organizations or individuals cannot procure and use jammers in India.

      Crow Butte Park

      August 12, 2022 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C

      Nach dem Frühstück machen wir uns direkt auf den Weg, die Etappe heute war mit 3,5 Stunden eine längere.
      Wir fuhren durch das östliche Oregon immer weiter Richtung Norden. Eine sehr trockene Landschaft, teilweise schon Wüste und nicht zu vergleichen mit dem dicht bewaldeten Oregon an der Küste, dass wir von vorherigen Reisen kannten.
      In Pendleton machten wir eine kurze Pause.
      Anschließend ging es über den Columbia River in den Bundesstaat Washington, wo wir auf einer kleinen Insel im Columbia River einen Campingplatz im Crow Butte Park gebucht hatten.
      Die Jungs badeten im Fluss und genossen den nagelneuen Spielplatz.
      Abends wurde es ganz schön stürmisch, anscheinend aber normal für diese Gegend.

      Pilot Truck Stop Shower

      June 7, 2018 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 57 °F

      Yay! After 50 hours on the bus, time for a shower! I had no idea what to expect from a truck stop shower, but awesome is all I can say. 12 USD that comes with towels, soap (also shampoo since I shaved my head), and loads of refreshing hot water. Bonus = clean facility! This was a very good decision...for me and my fellow passengers.

      Out for now. ✌️

      Lunch Time!

      May 7, 2021 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 59 °F

      Despite the wind — which is still blowing hard — we enjoyed a nice drive this morning. With lovely scenery to keep us entertained along the way. Plenty of sunshine, blue skies, and texture clouds. Cold to cool — 43F to 53F — especially when stepping outside the RV.

      We’re now stopped at the Stanfield Rest Area along I-84W in Oregon for a bite to eat. On the menu: salad with feta cheese and pears for dessert.
