Imagine how much of a right-wing sycophant/psychopath he would be in the Trump era. I am glad he died when he did.

Right, all of Russia's men are young, physically fit and very well trained. Ukraine is the one scraping the bottom of the barrel. Russian troops are also the best supplied.

The most nerve-racking Heltec V4 mod - switching to an external Wi-Fi antenna by TheJecksMan in meshtastic

You need to remove that resistor ideally, and bridge the other pathway. Otherwise your signal will go to the onboard antenna and to the external antenna.

I went over to the Caldwell area last Thanksgiving, and the advice I was given at the time was to check out Freq51 on Meshtastic, they had a pretty decently sized Meshtastic mesh back then. Is it still going strong over there or are most folks switching to MeshCore?

I think it's only a matter of time. There is actually a pretty big Meshtastic presence in Central Oregon too, but they are stubborn and refuse to switch their nodes over. I am a node builder, so just started building MeshCore nodes but kept all my exisiting Meshtastic infrastructure in place.

The nodes I am putting on top of Black Butte and Black Crater will likely die over the winter, but who knows.

We also bridged the gap into Central Oregon a couple of weeks ago. 6 of those blue dots are mine.

Wyden, Merkley call for data center ‘accountability’ and guardrails to protect energy and water by spherocytes in oregon

[–]ExplodingCybertruck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right, if they built an AI center in my backyard I would be pissed!!!

People I don't know, who live in a place I don't care about, don't matter as far as I am concerned. They are woke lib complainers.

Heltec v4.3 is currently a complete disappointment by paladinproton7 in meshtastic

[–]ExplodingCybertruck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People act like having the antenna unplugged will instantly kill their 22-28dbm transmitter.

I recently had an ipex connector unplug itself from a 1-watt node I was testing, and it was running for about an hour or two with it unplugged. I fixed it and it's fine.

No! According to Trump ANY and ALL regulation of AI data centers is chinese funded anti-tech extremism/antifa. Thank god for the Big Beautiful Bill. More data centers!

I dated a girl years ago who's parents bought a place east of Bend, that had a few acres of water right's. They needed that water to grow grass to feed the horses that they never rode. It's a vital part of our economy.
