For the first time, I own my own big boy internet drop with unblocked 80. This is a good day.

I can always tell when I'm back on "normie" internet, because I think every single truly gifted UX artists are working over "here" now Like Jitsi. Add desktop sharing and bam, it's like "Skype? Ok grandma,"

Imagine this: the hardware equivalent of a pi 4 with as much oomph as possible, no audio, no USB power wasting. Wifi/bt mesh. Put it in a rugged box covered in as much pv reception as possible. Heat issues to be researched of course. Put relays in them, configure them to run as an asymmetric drop in', do what you can while you can way as a supermassive array that tries as hard as it can to be as efficient as it can,, and the more the merrier. Make millions cheap. Kits for kida to put together would probably sell, but I'm no marketing pro. Make an independent global network that theoretically could operate as.a baee backbone as long as enough of them touch the sun, and even fragmented would be locally useful. It'd be cool if someone did that and sent me one before I have to make my own. Or if someone already has, can I help? Just a thought

Yet another power outage here in the planet's high 5. A couple of years back it was a week, we lost a freezer full of food. On a completely unrelated note, did you know a raspberry pi running in a POE setup draws an almost comically small amount of power compared to literally any device with an active USB port?

Best part about my nostr and lightning network research? Finding obscure gems like this. This is how you do live video streams. Chefs kiss.

https://postimg.cc/Z0LqH9P5Z0LqH9P5 Say hello to one of the planet's newest kubernetes clusters. Very easy, very cheap, and failed nodes can be replaced by just plugging another one in. 9 pi 4s all POEd up. Those decoration stickers are from the 90s, used them on a whim, and the nodes are of course named appropriately. I'll ⚡ the person to identify the issue with the set of stickers chosen - a troublemaker is missing.

Why did no one tell me how amazing Ubuntu is? Why have I spent years of my life troubleshooting the personal failings of Bill Gates Why do corporate stooges still insist on MS$? Is the high price of essentially free poae. A budget issue?
