Short answer: No.
Long answer: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I've got a signal here I can't figure out what it is, despite spending some quality time with sigidwiki.com :

Audio is recovered from FM demodulator.
Hoping @rey or some of the #hamradio folk might know what it is.
They fixed my #IPv6 autofs bug in January, so I stopped following it. In April they discovered a regression and backed the patch out just in time for the release of 18.04. So now we get another full LTS cycle without autofs+IPv6.

@djsundog Oh, and it juggles pretty well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYS0kzdExD8
@djsundog Oh, I almost forgot: the super-secret SSH interface!
More @djsundog inspired hardware nostalgia: the Chumby!
@djsundog and friends: Do you remember the i-Opener?

Found a Pole Position ROM for my Atari 800 emulator. Just like I used to play when I was a kid.
what if, an alternative to both mastodon _and_ pleroma, which is much less memory-heavy and is a single executable file you drop on your server

I've been seeing a lot of FT8 posts lately. I've even tried it out. But, I'm more of a ragchewer than a contester. If you're in that boat too, fire up fldigi and give the Olivia modes a try. I've had perfect copy QSOs when the signal was barely visible in the waterfall. It's similar technology (MFSK with FEC) but you're not constrained to short, templated messages. I find Olivia-8-500 to be a good balance of speed and bandwidth.
