gollark: It's on my list of "things I am vaguely interested in but am not doing much about".
gollark: > happiness starts with an antenna!Not all of us are amateur radio people.
gollark: Again, you seem to just be explaining things poorly. You remind me vaguely of caveman, who seems to not be on here now.
gollark: It's kind of dodecahedral to go around complaining about people not understanding you (and implying it's some failure on their part) and then refusing to try explaining it in better ways.
gollark: > oh the obvious reality is that people dont know what they dont know, and even i didnt conclude that, tho i see it now. doesnt keep me from being impatient and getting madMaybe you should try explaining better if you think you have some great insight people do not understand.
