It's a wrap! Enjoyed the #HackWeek24 creating an ADS-B receiver using an old Raspberry Pi Model 3 and a cheap RTL2832U DVB-T dongle bought from AliExpress.

You can create a working combustion+ignition configuration from: https://g7.github.io/adsbreceiver/

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
