World Possible's RACHEL Server - The Best of the Web Offline

RACHEL Server includes Wikipedia, Khan Academy, and much, much more. Brought to you by the non-profit World Possible, all proceeds go back to the cause.

Since September or October I've been working with Internet-in-a-Box to update their #OpenStreetMap offering. I don't think I've said a thing about it here but I've been posting weekly videos on friggin LinkedIn of all places. That's good for shameless self-promotion but the Fediverse is really the home for it.

The problem is, based on my experience I don't think mastodon.social can really handle 3 minute videos. I'll probably have to get a Peertube account.

I'm building out a variant of the Wee Free Community Library for BSides Seattle! It will be an offline hotspot with #InternetInABox and a calibre-web instance.

What CC or Public Domain books and comics should I include in it?

Does anybody have one of these? Does anyone know of any actual use - as in know personally.
Imagine it would be fairly slow - is that accurate?
Have any preppers utilized these in their survival kits?
I’m looking for at least secondhand knowledge. Not hearsay or not pure hearsay. Any hands on evaluations of their limitations after one year of use?

Internet-in-a-Box - Mandela's Library of Alexandria

Internet-in-a-Box is a tiny, powerful 'Digital Library of Alexandria' that can be set up by any school, medical clinic or community worldwide.

Я просто в шоке.... оказывается, вещи о которых я размышлял в духе "было бы круто", существуют, но практически не известны в моих краях. Один из таких примеров #internetinabox Да,да, я знаю что в сети меня окружают люди которые знают всё, обо всём, спокойно, у меня тоже есть доступ к поисковику. По моему это один из тех проектов которые действительно могут "изменять мир к лучшему" не на словах, а на деле.

Eilen #wikimania'ssa puhuttiin #internetinabox'sta, jolla nettiä viedään mm. afrikkalaisiin kouluihin, joissa ei ole juuri mitään oppimateriaaleja. Sähköä pikkuboxit saavat aurinkokennoista - jos norsut eivät käy niillä vähän leikkimässä. Netti toimii tässä tapauksessa ilman verkkoa, offlinepakettina, johon on ladattu mm Wikipedia, Khan Academy, TED puheita, open streetin karttoja yms.

Hankkeessa haaveillaan länkkäreiden laatikon pohjalle hylkäämistä kännyköistä, joita voisi käyttää myös bokseina.

They really found out that people were hopping on the internet and using it to change the trajectory of their life.

Then, instead of embracing the positive aspects of this new tool, they got mad and destroyed its previous format and leaned it into fascism, ignoring all warnings. Because this is exactly what they wanted.

Now I’m learning Linux, about to get that #internetinabox, and really thinking about running my own entire server. On solar power.

This is insane.

Internet in a box can be the starting point for so many smaller projects. You don’t have to run all of it for every project.
I use it as the foundation for my little free e-library,

But it can also be used as a stand alone NextCloud instance, offline Wikipedia/ #kiwix server or open source maps interface.
