    STP Dead Drops? Hobo Mailboxes?

    As mentioned in another thread on GPS units, I had a curious thought about using GPS units, or even older Letterboxing techniques to hide stashes of kick-downs, trades, and unneeded, or unwanted (BUT STILL USEFUL TO SOMEONE ELSE!) items. Basically, this is a STP version of Geocaching. Private...

    IP Tools, android app.

    I believe that this should be a nice little app that you might want to keep handy on your android phone or what-not. Some of you could find yourselves uploading videos/photos of your travels but avoiding the use of 3G/4G mobile data to do so. Meanwhile, most public wi-fi hotspots can act so...

    ButterflyVPN

    I figured some folks might find the $89 (3-year plan) to be a decent price tag for this VPN on a USB dongle. You can even use it as a router for several devices. VPN's encrypt your data so snoops (think government, Google, whoever) can't monitor what you're doing online. Read a review...

    Go To Game Apps?

    I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one here that is guilty of zoning out to a game on their phone. Cards, bubble shooters, gem swap, RPGs, etc... I often use repetitive games to help me go to sleep. Counterintuitive to modern sleep study wisdom, but I don't fit any of those models. They're...

    Better Antenna for Baofeng UV-5R?

    I've been looking around recently for another antenna for the Baofeng UV-5R. Yes, I know, the UV-5R is shit as a sole scanner...but it's cheap and it works so to hell with it. I've gone to RadioReference.com and other sites that are either filled with foamers or a helluva lot of radio nerds...

    CB Radio Mounted on Bicycle

    Pretty good video about installing a CB on your bike. I think I may install this on my motorized recumbent trike so that I have the option of being social anywhere I'm at, or radioing for help / weather updates, or maybe even finding some work (?). I even wonder whether, as a bike tourer, it'd...

    I've been unemployed most of my life so I'm looking to make money and save money, lower my living costs. I would like to hop freight trains with people that aren't assholes or posers. I like squats that are clean and have electricity and internet.

    News & Blogs Real men pack light

    I learned that traveling is not as hard as one would think. If one keeps to Transporation, Shelter, and Food (TSF) one can go farther than expected. However, I learned people pack too much (I am also guilty of this). Unless you are going to outer space or the Artic, you really don't need much...
