Now I’m curious, have you studied/speak any other language? If you learned later, what would you say was the comparative difficulty? I ask since it seems the dominance english in my internal monologue clouds what I intend to say some times

3·5 months agoI 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.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How to Use Local IP for Services when at Home?English
3·6 months agoAlthough 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

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 😁

1·6 months agoOkay 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

Meshtastic@mander.xyz•What are some best practices for deploying a mesh?English
1·6 months agoHaving 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

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

1·6 months agoNext 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)

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


When you need a nannybot? Yes.
