Right. The #micropython #reticulum port is getting actually quite usable. With addinng direct link messaging and file transfers, we can actually:

1. Put a stand alone #nomadnet page on an esp32s3 microcontroller,
2. Connect some sensors to it and put it into a solar powered enclosure
3. Fire up the LoRa radio chip
4. Put it up somewhere on a high tree

and you can serve information pages with files (even camera pictures or sound recordings) and live sensor data over LoRa purely off grid!

Had a good time setting up flmsg and flamp then decoding some contesia4/250 and MFSK32 tonight to receive some files on HF. My first time getting an actual file other than an image off HF.

Dystopia notwithstanding, Ring's commercial about using their surveillance to find lost pets makes no sense.

They say 10M pets are lost per year & their service finds "more than 1 dog per day." So let's even say generously 500 dogs per year.

Out of 10M lost pets, they want Americans to commit privacy suicide for a .005% success rate???

"We fail 99.995% of the time! Let us violate your privacy!" is a helluva way to burn $10M in ads and destroy your brand.

I'm uninstalling my RING today.

How crazy would it be if the US overthrew the government of Venezuela because Trump was promised a Nobel prize if he did it? Makes one wonder what the whole Greenland thing is about...
Watchmen being topical again.

Fun fact: this is the title of a white nationalist song.

It’s the same one the Proud Boys were singing in that clip that got Jonathan Choe fired from KOMO.

That’s how far the Overton Window has moved in a few years

Remember History Class and the "secret police" going door to door asking for "papers."?

This, from behind Iran's digital blockade.
