Most people don't need to deal with them, because they either don't owe or aren't owed enough money for them to get involved. Their proper title these days is High Court Enforcement Officers.

>>426990
Pretty sure those were called bailiffs in the compilation.

No, I mean this lot, who continue to exist.

>>426994
Bailiffs enforce judgments from the County Court.

I think those fancy-pants types are called High Sheriffs.

>>426994

High Sheriffs used to have responsibility for enforcing High Court writs until 2004, when that was transferred to the court itself. Naturally the lads and lasses with daft ruffs didn't go out dragging road protesters out of trees and seizing vans, they deputised it to their own bailiffs. They're still technically responsible for overseeing local elections, but that gets deputised to the returning officer.

We're British, we're obliged to have loads of archaic institutions that used to have a practical purpose but are now merely ceremonial. I imagine that in the far future, we'll send a frazzled-looking woman to Brussels every year to ask for an "Article 50 extension"; nobody in that part of China will have a clue what she's on about, but they'll give her a fancy bit of paper with a big wax seal because the tradition is cute.

Audible mirth.

I mean, you're taking the piss but that really is how most of our wierd parliamentary traditions came to be, and it's daft enough that one day you'll sit with your head in your hands despairing how accurate of a prediction it was.

That's a fair point. It's a protectorate with its own currency, it isn't a member of the UK. I imagine they'd probably vote to become independent though if the pound crashed through the floor, as their interests might be better served by Holyrood or Stormont at that point. The Scots have vastly more experience at accommodating the needs of island communities, so that would be my guess.

Assuming the above is an inevitability.

I think it's down to Wales whether or not they want an independence vote.

I have one of these, it's a Kinetic SBS-1 - I've had it for over ten years now. It was originally about 400 quid, and needed Windows, but there are many many more on the market now and I would think you could do no wrong with one of the £25 SDRs; at the time it was about the only device under a grand you could buy. It came with its own Windows app, which allowed you to visualise the results, but nowadays I think just about everyone uses a RaspPI and feeds data to PlaneFinder or Flightrader and uses their visualisation tools.

I have a few SDR's too - my favourite is called the HackRF One, but that's also quite pricey, you can get started with the little USB sticks from Amazon and GnuRadio now. On the cheaper end, I like the NooElec ones too, and have a few of those. You basically need anything with the R820T and RTL2832U chipset, which many of the cheap SDRs have.

PlanePlotter is worth your time.

One of the advantages of doing it with multiple, cheap devices, is its also easy to pick up things like ACARS; you see some interesting/fascinating things float by there too.

On the location thing: both.

>>27107
What're you doing? Mapping planes? Do your receivers send the data to some central database? Looks quite cool.

>>27109

Appreciate the answer, especially the encouragement to go with multiple locations. Once I've charmed them a bit more at the new job I might even get away with sticking one on the ramp at the airport, who knows.

I didn't even think about ACARS, that's very useful. I sort of already have access to that sort of data but not directly - would be genuinely helpful to see that.

Have ordered a twin NooElec dongle bundle for now, and will go from there. Will update with my levels of success later in the week.

I've noticed you can get a HackRF One on eBay for about £140 now - are they weird bootleg versions, or just cheaper than I remember them being? Last time someone (you?) mentioned them on here they were about £250.

>>27110

Basically, yes. All those sites like Flightradar, Flightaware, Planefinder etc work by pooling a load of receivers that pick up a planes transmission, which pumps out information such as their callsign, ID, location, altitude, and so on. It's functionally a secondary radar and and extremely cheap and effective way to monitor air traffic, both on the ground and in flight.

>>27111

The cheap HackRF Ones are sort-of knock-offs, because the design is open source.

The HackRF One is certainly the most versatile of the low-cost SDR systems, but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it as a receiver. It has transmit capability and an exceptionally wide frequency coverage which makes it very useful for hardware hackers, but the performance of the receiver is pretty mediocre.

I'd suggest an SDRplay RSP if you only plan on receiving. It's receive-only, but it has extraordinarily good receiver performance and goes toe-to-toe with radios costing ten times as much. It has built-in bandpass and notch filters, so your target signals won't be drowned out by local noise from TV transmitters and the like. It also has good software and documentation, so it's quite easy to get up and running if you're not a radio geek. The base RSP1A model is less than a hundred quid.

https://www.sdrplay.com/rsp1a/

Using multiple SDR receivers (even of different types) is no problem; most SDR software can control multiple transmitters or receivers using the Omnirig protocol. You can also use virtual receivers in the SDR software to monitor multiple frequencies simultaneously within the same band.

Antennas are a more complicated subject, because you'll always get the best performance from an antenna that's tuned to a specific frequency band. A variety of wideband scanning antennas are available, which will give tolerable performance across a relatively wide frequency range. If you'll be doing a lot of listening in a particular band, I'd suggest a tuned antenna - there are plenty of inexpensive VHF airband antennas on the market.

Height makes a huge difference, so I'd strongly recommend using the more elevated location. UHF and VHF transmissions can cover distances of hundreds of miles, but a solid obstacle will stop them dead. Getting your antennas up on a chimney breast or in a high tree is also well worth the effort - even slightly extending the horizon will hugely increase your potential to receive distant signals. If you're comfortable with a soldering iron, I'd suggest the books Receiving Antennas for the Radio Amateur or Stealth Antennas, because building your own antennas is really the best option if you're serious about radio.

Turn auto-capitalisation on, m9. Fuck sake.

Also, it's weird we've both had that dream. Do you suffer from a generalised anxiety disorder? I had assumed it might be an anxiety dream.

>>426885
Guess you will.

I was watching this youtube video some young man with frizzy hair had made, it was a short creepy thing where he went down into some basement he shouldn't (looking for a valve to turn off something or other) and found a strange white-painted complex of tunnels and labs where there was one person (who looked like Juggarnaut made flesh, his shiny bald head domed down to his shoulders) doing all the roles of security, scientist and some exercises for some reason. He mainly just aggressively shouted at the youtuber to leave, which he tried but kept having these weird blackout flashes which would take him further into the complex. The strange man seemed to be playing all the roles at once so you'd see more than one of him at the same time in different positions like clones but still with the sense it was just the one person, hard to tell if there were two+ of him at once or the blackouts just made it seem that way. The video ended and the youtuber started explaining how he'd made it, given the actor directions and such but the blackouts kept happening and I was having hallucinations of the weird guy trying to come in through the window, sort of the way you do when you're half awake and having hypnogagic stuff happening in your real home. The video was called something to do with Everest, three-four words and one of them was Everest but I forget what. "The Steep Climb to Everest" maybe.
Then I woke up and the blackouts stopped.
Mainly notable because the whole thing was so note-for-note like a creepypasta someone might come up with.

I was walking back to my student flat, walked up the stairway and through the front door and there was some fat middle aged alco just lying half passed out on the floor inside. I tried to wake him and move him on and he shuffled slowly towards the door but I started to suspect there was more to this and accused him of trying to burgle us.
This flicked a switch in the guys mind as he'd been busted, turns out it was an act and he just improvised when I came in. After being rumbled he started throwing comically small knives at me, then left through the door and I chased him a bit until he produced a larger knife and then started chasing me. Through a gigantic shopping centre with cathedral like proportions and a buffet bar the size of a great hall, but with seating only around the walls.

Then later on this chubby chap returned in my dreams but this time I was in a 4 storey tall terrace house. Suspecting that there were burglars casing places along the road I switched the lights so that it looked like nobody was downstairs, then went and watched our front window. Sure enough the guy wandered past our living room window and sneakily checked it out, I caught him doing this then burst out the door and gave chase. He had throwing knives again but I managed to chase him around and down some alleyways where he then ran into his own home. So I broke into his home and had a knife fight with him. Can't remember the result.

All the talk about Scarlett Moffatt lately made me dream last night that I was sitting on her couch with her on the show Gogglebox and she was giving me a hand job under a blanket while we were watching TV and moaning about it. So I said, "are you sure your parents won't mind?", but then I looked and saw that there was nobody there besides the two of us.

So yeah, Scarlett Moffatt wanked me off on national TV in my dream last night. I can't remember if it was any good though.

>>22528
Oh yes, I thought exactly the same.

Almost 2 and half years ago to the day I was in a wheelchair and struggling to walk, I battled back to health but I still can't manage to cut my own toenails. It's a bridge too far for me, but it's embarrassing to ask for help so I keep ruining my socks and it annoys me. However, when I do ask my wife also soaks them, uses a pumice stone on them and moisturises them. I've noticed the cuticles and skin in general stays supple for a while.

Try using hand cream, like that Norwegian stuff for sailors.

My brain's shit.

>Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Verizon, and AT&T have all refused to hook their data centers up to Netflix's servers without payment from the video streaming service.
There are two ways to get your network hooked up to another. This arrangement of getting direct links to exchange traffic is called peering. The other network agrees to carry your traffic in return for you carrying theirs. The other way to do it is transit, where you pay the other network to carry your traffic. Comcast basically demanded an arrangement where they got to act like peers but Netflix still paid for transit. Throw in that Comcast owns NBC and Hulu and the motivations become a little clearer. An awful lot of backsliding on the internet has come about from consolidation between comms and media, and the inherent conflicts of interest that come with it.

>>19307

The argument was that peering with Netflix isn't a traditional peering arrangement, because the traffic flow is effectively unidirectional. They're not joining up two networks for their mutual benefit, they're building an express lane for a massive data hog. We can debate the merits of that argument, but it isn't prima facie wrong.

>>19311
>They're not joining up two networks for their mutual benefit
How is it not to Comcast's benefit to provide their customers with a better connection to a service that evidently a significant number of them make significant use of?

>>19315
They don't give a shit about their customers.

Had an utterly filthy sex dream about a long-time friend who I've never considered very attractive. She's not an uggo or anything, she's just never really caught my eye. But obviously now I've had this dream I definitely want to shag her, just in case she's as rampant as she was in the dream.

I wouldn't call it a 'weird' dream but quite a vivid one where I was shouting at a load of familiar people how I was so sick of being lonely, seen as stupid and useless and subhuman. They seemed taken aback but that was all. Then I woke up.

2000 posts and 6 years, lads. Crikey. Time for a new thread, should anyone feel like sharing the minutiae of their sub-conscious they can have the honour of making it.

I had a dream that I was part of a small village, we were building this amazing, intricate building, interwoven with stories and thoughts from our deepest subconscious. All the townsfolk were proud of the building, and how it took years to construct. Whenever people visited, they were impressed with the quality and longevity of the work.

Then some cunt came over, barred the doors and set it on fire.

I wonder what it means?

OP here again, thought I'd check up on this to see if there was anything new.

You've probably got the most relevant outlook to me here, dunno if I made myself clear but I don't really watch porn all the time, in fact I end up wanking a lot due to what you said, wanking while chatting to lads and lasses.

There's some good news though, since this thread I've been exhibiting a lot of control. The other night I got it over with in about 15 - 20 minutes after a week of not even doing it, without becoming an overstimulated mess. I've been controlling it a lot better after the gym too.

On that note as well, haven't really bothered chatting to anymore to get off because it tends to be a black hole for me where I just wanna keep going. Gonna keep on with how I've been doing.

I wank 5 times a day and have a one terabyte porn collection. I want to abstain from porn and only wank using my imagination when I'm legitimately horny like I did in the good old days before the internet. How do you tell the difference between wanting to have a wank to relieve boredom and when you're legitimately horny?

>>28482

I think there's a lot to be said for a week of cold turkey and seeing how you feel.

>>28482

I think you have to relearn the difference between that mate.

>>28482
>have a one terabyte porn collection
Weak shit my dude and this is after a significant recent prune. But I see myself as more of a "curator" than some fevered wank-addict.
