Bill Weaver Mach 3+ Blackbird Breakup. Holy crap.     #>


Middle-School Dropout Codes Clever Chat Program That Foils NSA Spying. Good, I hope it's uptake is massive, especially among the younger crowd (who will use it more.)     #>


Birthday Statistics. Interesting, mine is near to one of the more popular days, other people I know are either right on one or very near a popular day as well.     #>


A New Way Insurers are Shifting Costs to the Sick. Multiple tiers for generics?? What the hell?     #>


Mechanical Loops. Hypnotic.     #>


DeepSkyStacker, for dealing with astrography photos (pictures of the night sky). Looks like an alternative to StarStax but with additional features. For examples of some of my night sky photos check out my Night Sky album on Flickr.     #>


DIY All-Natural Bug Spray. Wonder how well it works?     #>


InsideTracker review - blood analytics and nutrition recommendations. There's an old maxim: you cannot change what you don't measure. Getting a solid baseline is the first step to that.     #>


Baïkal - Lightweight CalDAV+CardDAV server. Interesting alternative to Owncloud if you are only looking for those two features. I like how it uses SQLite databases, that makes it pretty simple and portable as well.     #>


Android without the mothership. Using an Android phone without the constant spying from Google. It looks difficult but it can be done (I prefer to use things like Xposed Xprivacy and such to restrict wherever possible.)     #>


Build a Bug Out Kindle: A Digital Survival Library at Your Fingertips. Pretty solid list of books, though if you wait to read them until you absolutely need them it may be too late...     #>


OSTel Encrypted Voice phonecalls. You'll need a client application and the people you call will need to have an OSTel account as well but if you want encrypted voice it's worth grabbing.     #>


Moab - Captain Ahab bike trail. Something new I haven't ridden yet...     #>


What to Store in Your Refrigerator Humidity Drawers. So it's not like when you first live on your own where everything goes in any available drawer?     #>
