Let the dog in the neighbors open door.

I just got me an M-1, so far my biggest frustration is having to choose between InkHUD and stock (please let me know any forks of InkHUD that show coordinates). The stock UI is somewhat more sluggish and refreshes the screen frequently.

I do not rec the M-5, battery life is way too poor.

That Lilygo may be my next node to try, the M-1 seemingly lacks any extra IO and I would love to build a custom rig with a rotary encoder and such, and somehow is cheaper than the M-1 I just bought lol

For all intents, it seems CAD is good for a while, at least til someone shows me a tool that goes straight from drawing to CAD and CAM paths. At least I’m also hoping myself. Besides, someone has to make those drawings, and for as long as my supervisors boss doesn’t know how even tools wear, I think we’re in the clear for.

I thought I killed my analog oscilliscope about 20 minutes ago. Thankfully I didn’t, so that’s pretty cool.

If I’m smart, I’ll soon cut off basically everything news adjacent, maybe including lemmy depending if I can get good filters. Maybe a desprate effort to claw back from anything which weighs me down, given the gravity of our future, but eh.

And the best part? They knew it would happen! All in the name of scaping a few more dollars off the taxes we pay.

Although I do have mine exposed to the internet, I do think this is the simpliest way:

Have an additional DNS resolver capable of overriding your outbound request to your server to loop back instead. I’m not sure what you’ll need to do different if you’re using a domain for your certificate, you could likely add your local IPs to your DNS return. But using domains allows you to wildcard your DNS override to catch all connections you may have using subdomains

E: if anyone could let me know if they see this comment, it seems my instance is having issues federating

Honestly though if you pulled out a picture with 14 monitors all with terminals, I would be impressed

IIRC it just acts like a LoRa gateway that you’d have to further configure to talk with, at least if its like the Heltec firmware. I could also be wrong, I didn’t even have 5 minutes before I had meshtastic on them 😁

Okay be real, you want to do all your networking config and drive pools and high availability all through the CLI?? There’s still a reason I use the CLI in the GUI but thats just nuts

Thank you, hopefully never will have to go for that wringer again, it was very odd seeing state cops be dismissive of clear video evidence to say the least

Having done a little more scouting around town, I think I discovered a potential black hole router - or simply nobody else is around, hard to judge by signal strength if they’re doing good or not. Otherwise I do think I may be in a good spot to try setting up some infrastructure, if only I can get LOS to what seems to be a sparse network… if there is one lol

The FCC ham license database is publicly available already, including name and location of the “station”.

Oh i knew this, evidentally he didn’t, old timer though. He tells me they’d flag down people if they were clogging their frequencies in the 90s… according to him lol

It’ll lose only one hop over the two routers

Sweet that’s just what I was hoping to hear. And those RAK units have sounded real promising, seems like the perfect time to start adopting local meshes

Next time I’m down there I’ll certainly ring their longfast some more, seems like at least one of the nodes I picked up on was a solar powered RAK, and was picking them up from an unideal spot from over a mile away. I’d certainly imagine they’d want to expand.

I’m a little apprehensive of being on a map, I know that there’s programed deviation and you can opt out. I am looking to join a local metropolitan area group… but they only cover up til a few towns away (at least with position disclosed nodes)

Ive noticed the remembered nodes are different between seriak and bluetooth connections on 2.7.10 via F-Droid

Yes on that second part, which really makes me wonder what purpose it serves, unless you had a bunch of HAMers in an area that want to set up a mesh… but they all already have HAM so whats the point almost 😅

Sweet, thank you. That’s basically what I figured, but the arcane rules may have had something else to say, especially things like the HAM encryption restriction, you never know 🤷‍♂️

I was wanting to touch into that… said friend didn’t know you could just pull his location from a map by name, and I’m not too keen on that myself

As i don’t want to divulge too much, some information will be sporatic/somewhat improper.

My family dealt with a neighbor, which of whom I can only describe as a plurality of serial harassers. By that I mean we were not the first, nor the last family for this entire family to explicitly target and fixate on for at least months on end. This was before 2016 to add (they ended up right where you’d expect).

Not just a not ring camera. Seriously DM me and im more than willing to help on the technical side of setting up a Frigate local NVR. Shouldnt cost your more than $200. If you go the home assistant route, it makes it trivial to set up an alarm system with zigbee or simular devices.

Now i have to be careful, among other things the neighbor was having their kids steal our mail, we recorded evidence of such, but they seemingly had a friend in the PD. Im not saying to expect this or necessarily take my advice, but especially being a red area, the cops will not help you if it comes to it. They will be 15 minutes after a shooting is called in.

We had evideable damage and video of one of their kids trying to break in our garage.

They still put my parents enployement at the time in jeopardy.

You get the 2A side of that, but ideally you want to avoid that entirely.

We eventually put up proper cameras, and some of the derangement subsided, floodlights are of particular use.

You cannot let yourself live in paranoia. But similarly you cannot be caught with your pants down.

We were in a ranch, thus no upstairs. They would shine flashlights at our windows. Laser pointer to the eyes would stop them quick.

Your situation is a lot more - forward. But there are pieces of information i believe you could use to your benefit in a preparedness scenario.

Again, DM me if you need any technical help, I’ll be happy to

PS definitely be done with FB. Theres a lot more shit than this one clown to do with that place. Ive been trying to avert my SOs father from something similar as well, but FB is another tool of this admin ib many ways

Did you try what your error message suggests? Also didn’t know ybat nginx could do i2p, unless thats new or you’re using some extension
