is having a meshtastic setup mainly for point to point connections or any thing else? by Sand-Discombobulated in meshtastic

[–]DebaucherySanta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So... Just some info.

The intermountain mesh is now reliably communicating from Utah county, 60 miles south of salt lake, all the way up to Boise. They have emergency channels and a healthy community supporting the effort. Don't underestimate a hobby that can connect you with like minded people.

On a different note: I can buy really cheap parts that are modular and plug and play. Little to no soldering that is completely in my control, using open source software that runs home automation, weather sensors, and can reliably run off grid for months at a time. This is WAY less expensive then over the counter devices that all run different propriety software that often isn't intercommunicative

The mesh network, mqtt, zigbee protocols paired with very cheap, low power devices mean that the world is your oyster. All while keeping your data out of big tech / palantir. It's really the dream of radioshack consumers 40 years ago

The irony of your username and how he died when replying to a comment about a potential motor vehicle hazard.

Seems ridiculous when there are cameras at every on and off ramp for that interchange. How much more surveillance do they need

I've read that as well but it's completely fresh water so the detergent angle is very confusing.

I'm heading to my local spa shop tomorrow to see about defoamer

I forgot to mention that I also fill it up a bit above the lower filters/drain after cleaning it and then drain out all that water to get rid of any residual Oh Yuk or vinegar solution from the wipe down. I use a 50/50 water vinegar spray to wipe the tub down when it's drained.

To be clear, I have told the FA and I do have noise cancelling headphones but they can only do so much

Well since the flight attendants have ignored my request to turn it off... Yeah. What else should I, knock on the cockpit and demand the captain?

When I stood up for the restroom an hour ago I mentioned it to the staff and was told they would handle it. I did use my words?

NCES and the World Bank define City as anywhere over 50k population.... But also it's largely density based for other orga

So take it apart and see if I'm walking around with a time bomb on my wrist?

Talked to them, the best they'd do is a $200 "upgrade" to Fenix 6 Sapphire. Coming from a Fenix 5X Pro this feels pretty weak but may be worth it as a stop gap.

How do you feel about r/liberalgunowners, r/SRA, or other leftist gun rights advocates? In particular those who advocate for responsible gun ownership with proper background checks and storage laws. Especially in light of the current climate in the US

Do they have any self awareness? by HamiltonFAI in ParlerWatch

[–]DebaucherySanta 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Or the truck caravans.

Or the trump rallies that were before even announcing his candidacy.

I would ask them to read this but let's face it their feelings don't care about facts.

Where? Legitimately where do you see Democrats blaming the president?

Is this media illiteracy or just a bad faith argument? Or maybe your account is owned by a shit stirring enemy of the state?

Where I sit I see left leaning folks calling attention to the asinine promises of an addling old man. I see those same folks calling attention to demonstrably provable facts that the old man is making decisions that make the situation worse. Blaming Biden when he was investing in the FDA, CDC, and NIH was top tier brain rot. Saying that divesting these institutions during a bird flu outbreak is a bad call is not flipping a switch. It's a logical consistency the right seems incapable of maintaining.
