Got a surprise 300 meters this morning from the combadge running meshcore. Holy shit.

Tomorrow I will be working on porting meshcore to the t deck pro some more. I've currently got it working as a companion radio but need to add deep sleep, battery voltage reading and then the display.

After that it's on to a stand alone device which will take a while as there is no real UI available yet.

Nie poradzę sobie tutaj sam. Czy jest jakaś osoba zainteresowana przyjechaniem na kilka dni do nas na Polesie by pomóc w ogarnięciu paru rzeczy? #Linux (ogarnięcie serwera) #esp32 (programowanie, lepienie) #LoRa #LoRaWAN #meshtastic – którykolwiek z tych tematów.

Jest miejsce do spania, choć nie cały budynek wykończony. Łóżko spokojnie zmieści dwie osoby. Nakarmimy – vege lub nie. Dowiozę z PKP/busa, pokryję koszt podróży, wynegocjujemy wynagrodzenie. Maksimum 4 h działań na dobę, reszta wolne – można iść na łąki łapać kleszcze. Trzeba być odpornym na wrzaski żurawi. I ujadanie przyjaznych ale dzikich piesków.

Big drama at #CIVITAI, The premium #AISlop hosting site.
Civitai is THE #LORA (#GenAI) model repo.

Payment processors like Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Stripe, and PayPal have banned transactions in the past related to pornography or sex work on the basis of "reputation risk" and it looks like their morality tentacles reached Civitai.

Content Control Through Financial Gatekeeping: Because banks and payment processors control the flow of money, they can indirectly dictate what content is monetizable on the internet. This "financial censorship" is a form of privatized control where banks affect ultra conservative ideology. What Musk and #Maga cohorts would call "Sexual Degeneracy"

Isn't it great when the forces of evil (#finance) and #luddites (who let me be swift in saying are the good guys) combine to fight against AI ?!!!

@phildini's talk is all about saying my name just often enough that every time I go "Wait, what? Oh."

Some interesting info about the effect of #spreadingfactor (#SF) in #lora #radio #mesh is in papers about SF https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8512894 SF12 in #lora & lora https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5038744

Can one influence the effectiveness of using multiple #rnode interfaces , in one single end-point location, with different SF by setting the #LXMF delivery limit #DELIVERY_LIMIT down https://github.com/markqvist/LXMF/blob/c426c93cc5d63a3dae18ad2264b1299a7ad9e46c/LXMF/LXMRouter.py#L38 from the default 1 MB for those #rnodes, of a set, with higher SF values?

In a world where control of #communication networks is increasingly centralized, #DIYnetworks offer an independent alternative. This presentation shows how to build up your own autonomous #meshNetworks with low-cost hardware components and open source tools such as #Reticulum and #MeshChat. We will present practical steps for the construction, configuration and integration of sensors, communication and computing power. We are also discussing how such #networks can be used in #humanitarianCrises, such as the organisation of aid measures through solidarity initiatives.

This workshop offers a detailed journey through the world of do-it-yourself radio networks and #autonomousCommunication structures. Using an exemplary system structure, we show how to realize cost-effective, flexible mesh networks with #LoRa #RNode, Reticulum and MeshChat. In doing so, we not only dedicate ourselves to the technical requirements – such as the optimal hardware selection, antenna adaptation and network planning (keyword “Network Planning 101”) – but also consider how these technologies can be used for #humanitarian purposes, for example at #CADUS.

Neues #Meshtastic Device? LILYGO T-Echo Lite NRF52840 #LoRa E-Paper Display - sieht nice aus!

I got my first pair of @meshtastic nodes setup tonight I’m really looking forward to playing with them more and seeing what all I can do.
[ #Meshtastic #OffGrid #LoRa ]

I‘m currently porting #meshcom from the #esp32 PIO build to #zephyr. It used #lora and a driver setting which is hardcoded to a wrong value in zephyr (syncword). Took hours to debug why the other side was not able to receive anything. That’s embedded at its worst… #hamradio

Got 500 meters on the LoRa, through 2 walls and a hill. I need to move the antenna higher and outside.

Any recommendations for a 64 bit machine for #proxmox to run 8 dedicated #virtualmachines #vm each running minimal #ubuntu for a single #reticulum #meshchat application with 8 single usb-c connections to 8 #lora radio #rnode #nodes like a RAK4613 https://store.rakwireless.com/products/wisblock-meshtastic-starter-kit?variant=4388403462163
Here is what their site says: https://www.proxmox.com/en/products/proxmox-virtual-environment/requirements
Requirements for each VM is not much more than 1 Gb and storage requirements trivial (less than 30 Gb per machine). Any recommendations most welcome.

If I have 10 virtual machines (m1..10) in #proxmox each running #rnode hardware (r1..10), via 10 #meshchat guis (g1..10), over one of 10 respective usb-c connections,
& all 10 virtual machines are on the same local area network #LAN via 1 network card/interface of the 1 computer running proxmox, can I link the virtual machines using #reticulum #rns #autointerface
https://reticulum.network/manual/interfaces.html#auto-interface
& will thereby each #rnode #meshchat #gui receive all #lora mediated data from each other #rnode over #lan ?

Which is the lowest cost, #reticulum compatible, #rnode hardware for #lora radio?

Does your #meshtastic mesh have 60+ nodes, high traffic, or is an urban area? If so, you may have outgrown the default LongFast modem preset. Learn when and why to switch for better performance.

Web #pages , including #webcam #images , can be served by a #lora #radio #rnode using #reticulum #nomadnet over a #lora #radio #mesh , and accessed via #meshchat over the lora reticulum mesh using a mobile rnode :
