Got a couple of free old phones from a friend! Let's install LineageOS on this LG V30!
Know what I'm thinking? LineageOS + Termux + Copyparty (which does run on Android!) + microSD card support = a Pirate Box in mobile device form factor!!

My talk from @hopeconf is on the Internet Archive!
Check out the recording of my talk, "Off-Grid Data Running in Oppressive Regimes: The Pirate Box Project (and Sneakernet!)", directly on the Archive; it'll be sent to the hackers.town Peertube soon!

Yo dawg, I heard you like Pirate Boxes... 🏴☠️
If you haven't heard the word on the netwaves or in the streets of the Sprawl, fellow townie @cyberpunklibrarian recently dropped a new episode of his podcast, and he mentioned the #PirateBox and @TheSlugNoodle's Projekt B00KM4RK!!
Check it.. and spread the word!

Made a couple of Projekt B00KM4RKs today! This is a portable little library, powered by an ESP328266 board, that has a captive web portal where you can grab books and docs and leave some as well!
This was created and developed by fellow townie and preem choom @TheSlugNoodle, and carries the spirit of the #PirateBox onward!
I'll have one at #DC33 and #HOPE_16, and Slugnoodle will have some too!
