(Once you set a triangulation angle results can be read *faster* than punching in a multiplication on a calculator; no batteries ever required).<br/><br/>E6B in Aviation: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XK5rpQ0w8Ks">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XK5rpQ0w8Ks</a><br/>Navigation: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuxgWcW_2U4">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuxgWcW_2U4</a><br/>The rest of your mechanical computing rabbit-hole-diving needs: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@ChrisStaeck">https://www.youtube.com/@ChrisStaeck</a><br/> <img src="https://media2.ai6yr.org/media_attachments/files/116/982/466/672/665/373/original/f938a60464a0b775.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-07-25T20:24:12Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsd8fg6djkr39395vf0dt3x2rauwvr0yxrwxqxwhhas2hs8ddjt9vqzyrh95lanw08swg4v2ktn05x63v23s8ftag7tr6xzsjnp8hwrfvz8x3r7z8e In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfg5waykqfrm7an6w5qyq2634fxtv5s3x48wt9rk6k4jlmckgvmrctydexe'>nevent1q…dexe</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>yup, paid for my last tune up with my trusted local mechanic by check to avoid the credit card fees. This reeks of stealing from the little guy through infrastructure. Picking on fraud vulnerability makes no sense. US credit cards are *decades* behind in security features like PIN codes and mandatory rotating secret codes for logins that I’ve had in other countries. 2025-12-07T01:41:09Z
