It allows us to make a mesh network (interconnected nodes where you can contact a node even if it's not in range for you, by using other nodes) with Lora radio devices. Lora is slow but has long range. I think it works better when you have line of sight, like if someone can put a node on a mountain, it would help everyone.
I think people might have sent audio with it but it's mostly useful for text messages. It could be useful if the Internet is down, maybe, but it's more like a toy.
Clickbait title. Just say it's meshtastic.
Don't forget Chinese corner cutting. You probably have to knock 25% off of that if you want infrastructure of a level of quality and safety tolerable to Westerners.
Is that a thing? It sounds a bit like some bullshit propaganda from here. China = bad.

I wish xmpp was p2p. I can self-host but it could be way simpler if people didn't have to.
When I complained about it, Matrix told me that my public complaints were hurting the ecosystem and I should be quiet.
Weird. I think they did some improvement to prevent those abusive messages but it took a while and it was embarrassing. Maybe it's hard to prevent them with a federated network but still, the abusive messages where basically a copy paste.
I watched Tamala 2010: A Punk Cat in Space (2002) this week in preparation to see Tamala 2030: A Punk Cat in Dark on Sunday.
It was pretty weird and I had to watch a YouTube video to help me understand a bit more. I still liked it though, the music was great, there was some good visuals and I prefer watching weird shit over boring Hollywood regurgitation.
You're right. It can be useless if nobody double check it and even then, it will never be the same.
That's perfect. Thanks!
Nice. Are you going to replace the "?" icon in the app with the logo? I kinda wish that button would be removed to make the ui simpler/leaner.
I like that I'm able to use keepassxc as a keyring on Linux. I like that there is a prompt on access so no rogue script can real my whole keyring.
I don't know. It's the same for me but I got a pretty bad reception. The only time I saw some messages was when someone was sending some from a plane, so I guess it was a special occasion.
