Indeed, but everything you need is there. And I'll throw one in for free and it is awesome to get started: http://websdr.org/
TenForward, when the memes dropped.
We have that. It is a mastodon bot. I don't remember what server it is on, but tagging it will set the reminder.
I almost hate to recommend it, but r/rtlsdr is the place to go.
RTL-SDR is basically a way of using a digital device as a broadband radio. That is an oversimplification, but that is the idea. There are cheap USB devices out there that will turn a PC into a ham radio receiver (among a really wide range of other bands like weather satellites). I have no idea how they are doing it with Android, however. Maybe using the phone's antenna.
First thing I did when I moved out was eat an entire roll of cookie dough.
A conveyor would make the most sense.
Things like this are why I am mostly glad to still be using xbmc on my original hacked Xbox. Not much space and I have to deal with FTP, but it still works a treat.
At that pay, especially part time, I would find another job ASAP. It is important to know (like what the other commenter asked) what your end goal is. Want to primarily sit at a desk doing CAD/CAM, or get your hands dirty every day?
If the latter, I strongly believe that the core of learning how to do setups is to run a large amount of them and see/ask questions about the approach that was used. It can really suck to do a run that takes 20 seconds per work piece all day for a week, but the vast majority of us have been there at one point or another. I guess this is my way of saying that you should build your skills as an operator first. Get enough time doing that and you will know if a setup is shit and how to rectify it. There a good reasons why machining is traditionally an apprenticed position. Come to think of it, search for an apprenticeship somewhere reputable and you are going to have a much easier time starting out.
I worked at a shop for about 6 years where none of the operators were ever trained on how to properly mix coolant and management didn't care. Trust me, it can be a lot worse. I had to rip apart one vise where the internal hemisphere which mates with the set screw had been completely eaten away by rust.
