So, #CloakedWireless throttles to 128kbps after you exhaust your high-speed data allotment.
Android has functionality to simulate slow network speeds, and 128 is one of the options, so I gave it a try to see what would and would not work.
I was unable to stream audio podcasts in any form, even when I tried putting it down to 0.9x speed.
My nostr clients absolutely refused.
Mastodon and Lemmy both worked, though Lemmy was quite slow to load at first
I was able to browse the cloaked wireless website, so I assume that I should be able to get into my account dashboard and add a data pass if I needed it.
And last but not least, I noticed no problems with messaging apps such as SimpleX or Signal whatsoever.

Going to be switching to #CloakedWireless in March so i can pay my phone bill in #Monero. I am going to have 500MB high speed data and unlimited low speed data. I currently use T-Mobile connect where i get 5GB of high speed data but then it shuts off completely unless i buy a pass or my bill cycle renews.
I have a device that was released in 2021 and did a #5G speed test because I haven't done one in a while and managed to pull 270 MBPS over the 5G network.
I think if I tried to do a 5G speed test on Cloaked, I would probably use my entire high speed data allotment in one shot, so don't really intend to do that.
Just to be on the absolute safe side, I would make sure to have a battery capable of putting out 2.5 amps. Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

TLDW, you CAN power the 1 watt booster from a lithium battery. The battery is 3.7v and the booster needs 5v at 1.5a so it steps up from 3.7 to 5v. If I am doing my math correctly, this means your lithium battery needs to be able to put out 2a at full power.

BTC Sessions talked about a thing from River Financial that mentioned that #bitcoin #lightning payments grew 300% in 2025. Congratulations, there are now a whopping three lightning payments up from one lol.

UPDATE: #Tor is functioning for me again, so maybe they put some sort of mitigation in place, or the attack stopped.

Looks like this might be an attack to force people off of #Tor.

Signal was not working and it turns out that something is up with #Tor since I use it as a socks proxy.

Well jeez. My Third Reality thermometer told #HomeAssistant my room was 76F and its only Feb. That got me thinking that I had never finished setting up my air conditioner automation to use the thermometer instead of the timers, so I went ahead and fixed that problem. I had the temperature triggers set up and disabled when I first got the thermometer, but I never set up the actions blocks.
