Meshtastic device suggestion: a physical switch, key combo, or long-press that allows you to lock and unlock the buttons to prevent accidental presses. Also, if you're selling nodes that have the USB charging port on the end of the device opposite the antenna connector (Meshnology Heltec V3), some sort of 90 degree elbow antenna adapter might be a nice accessory to add to the kit, assuming it's necessary to keep the node's antenna vertical during charging.

Based on nothing more than the horror stories I've heard about the software used by government employees at all levels, I'm comfortable predicting that whatever A.I. solution gets implemented by a local, state or federal agency, it's gonna take a non-negligible number of humans to fix all of the problems it will cause.

Accidentally trashed the receipt for the new heat sink and thermal paste. Not sure if I'll need that for tax purposes when this Gamma finally mines a block. 🤣

God never distributed gifts to everyone equally.. is that why people Steal?

So what if Wall Street investors are losing their ass during this dip. The ones I feel the most sorry for are the recently orange-pilled Square merchants.

Is there a service or setting somewhere in #start9 OS that tells it to shut down gracefully if it is unable to connect to your router after X minutes?

My kid just asked if she should buy more. I was like "Hell yes!" "But I just bought a shit load! What if it drops more?" "Then don't buy." "But it's never been this low since I first started buying." "Then buy more." "Do you think it's gonna go lower?" 🤣 View quoted note →

COMING SOON.. Wrote a song with these guys that never got recorded.. until now!!! but until then here’s our current theme song from STILL DA...

Trying to figure out what the heck kind of connector is on this Meshtastic when I find this gem: "Wi-Fi equipment manufacturers have widely used RP-SMA connectors to comply with specific national regulations, such as those from the FCC, which are designed to prevent consumers from connecting antennas that provide additional gain and therefore breach Part 15 compliance. However, by 2000, the FCC regarded the connectors as readily available, though delaying its ruling indefinitely. As of 2018, leading manufacturers such as Netgear and Linksys are still using RP-SMA connectors on their Wi-Fi equipment." The radio industry definitely doesn't have enough antenna connector types. We should try to double it to say, 300 million 🤡 View quoted note →

Is there anything better to stress test a phone's WiFi connection than a podcast? What bitrate are these guys using anyway, 768kbps?

Who's the bigger liar, a politician or the WiFi signal strength icon on a phone?

On-chain fee estimates don't seem very accurate. Wallet said 3 sat/vB was high, I bumped it to 4, and still waiting for a confirmation 40 minutes later... Thank God for Lightning 🤦‍♀️

As long as my paycheck is a fixed quantity of fiat, not sure it makes much sense to buy goods or services priced in a fixed quantity of sats. Sure, the long game is get paid a fixed quantity of sats but until you reach that goal, you're just paying an ever increasing price for the same good or service. I thought "everything" is supposed to fall in Bitcoin terms, not just the purchasing power of my paycheck.

When you stop and think about it, it seems like an insult to UK taxpayers that the MoD would even employ the kind of people who need reminders like these. Then again, if it's prioritizing 'carbon footprint' over its primary mission, the very MoD itself starts to seem like an insult to taxpayers. View quoted note →
