Laser’s in Space!
The U.S. Space Development Agency (SDA) is building the next generation optical/laser based mesh network across hundreds of satellites in low earth orbit to provide highly secure low-latency communications and missile defense.

The front lines of this fight have moved to freedom of speech itself, so I updated the graphic.

BONUS: OFFLINE WARRIORS (P2P & MESH) 🛡️📡
When internet is cut, these apps create networks via Bluetooth & Wi-Fi Direct. No servers, pure P2P
🥉 #BRIAR 🇬🇧
The ultimate tool for protesters. Mesh Network (phone-to-phone). Messages hop between devices if internet fails. No central point. Open Source @briar
🥉 #JAMI 🇨🇦
Video, Audio & Chat 100% decentralized. Uses Distributed Hash Tables, no servers. Works on local Wi-Fi offline. Secure calls w/o phone number @Jami
🥉 #QAUL 🇨🇭
Internet-independent communication. Pure mesh for disaster zones or total shutdowns. Community-driven
Perfect for emergencies, protests, or natural disasters when the grid is down🌪️📵
Hope this helps escape Big Tech & embrace free alternatives. Take back sovereignty before a blond fascist presses the red🛑button!

@PCMag the Ronja was there (but slower/shorter) 20 yao an _still_ here https://ronja.twibright.com/ Oo
... I wish we restart to develop this kind of device/network in EU nowadays, as it's robust over EM interference (among other perks ... ) #wireless #meshnetwork #solarpunk #resilience #robustesse
Turn a Raspberry Pi 5 into a portable mesh router, ad blocker, offline wiki, and media server — all in one box. Take your internet with you, or build your own when there isn't any.

A complete guide to building a portable, self-contained router that serves as your main home router for trusted devices day-to-day, then unplugs and travels with you — providing Wi-Fi, mobile data failover, ad-blocking, encrypted networking, and a library of offline content.

Наконец-то окончательно «укротили» роуты (use_system_route_table). Те самые паники и вылеты, которые преследовали нас в v1.10.1 и v1.10.2, отправлены на свалку истории. v1.10.3 — «Золотой Мастер» в мире минорных патчей. Если вы ждали момента, чтобы обновиться — этот момент настал. Дальше тянуть уже просто неприлично.
(А ещё я понял разницу тире и дефис и замучался их копировать. Надо найти как печтать тире...)
Two super nice, random encounters during #FOSDEM2026 while I was wearing a @batadv hoody: Two people approached me and shared their story with @batadv. One that they've been thinking about building a #MeshNetwork in Denmark with it a few times. The other from Brazil and how ~2014 they had a lot of fun with (trying) building a bat. #mesh with 6 nodes on top of their heads during a demonstration, while the government had shut down cellular internet.
