this is one of those mornings where my mind is awhirl with thoughts, but nothing is settling down to gel into worthwhile writing.

August 8, 2023 by diogenesoftherifle, posted in Uncategorized

Day was shorter than I prefer, but the weather was such that I took Lyssa to Cannon Creek afterwards.   Not too hot, not too windy, occasional drifting showers,,, AND NO PUNKS AT THE RAMP (school started this week and the usual suspects are not available for trouble at the time I went.) Didn't do much, … Continue reading That was impromptu, but nice

WINGS OF CHANGE

What happens when a wounded veteran, a computer genius, and a handful of fiercely independent misfits decide that the best way to change the world is to stop waiting for someone else to do it?

G has spent years flying from a wheelchair, learning to make the sky obey him even when his body won’t. T is a computer wizard with a mysterious past, an enormous extended family, and a talent for turning impossible ideas into working machines.

Together, they build things that shouldn’t exist.

Aircraft that push the limits of what remote flight can do. Technology born in garages and workshops instead of corporate boardrooms. And a community of people who have decided that family isn’t necessarily something you’re born into.

But building extraordinary machines attracts attention.

Soon G, T, and their growing family find themselves caught between government agencies, competing agendas, and people who would very much like to know exactly what they’re capable of. What began as tinkering and experimentation is becoming something far more consequential.

Because when you build something powerful enough to change the rules, eventually somebody comes looking for the keys.

A beginner’s guide to going off grid. how to evaluate if you even want to make the attempt. written by the curmudgeonly author of this blog and his dog
