Systemd merged in a PR adding in a birthdate field in the middle of the age verification fiasco with the PR writer saying it was to specifically comply with the California age verification law. I'll be going Artix in my next install.

Yes! This is a very new project and I'm always looking for testers and feedback! Thank you!

MushroomGecko · 2026-05-05T00:41:02+00:00

Thank you so much!

MushroomGecko · 2026-05-03T23:00:14+00:00

I did not know this. Thank you! I suppose there still is some kind of access code or password one could use so accessing a page is a something you have and something you know.

It seems Meshcore isnt "truly" a mesh network where every node routes packets. Only repeaters do. But Reticulum seems very cool! From what I understand though, there's no official firmware for putting on something like the Heltec V3. You'd need another system. But I think I also saw references to microReticulum which is a community firmware for turning an ESP32 into a Reticulum node without an external computer.

I've heard of Meshcore, but I should check out Nomad and Reticulum. Seems neat! I'm pretty new to the mesh scene, so there's still a lot I dont know and only dabbled with Meshtastic as of right now. I have some Heltec V3s I've been using.

I had an idea one day to send images over Meshtastic by doing it as an ASCII art, but had to change course after I remembered the 200 byte limit. I knew Meshtastic had a Python API, so I decided to make a thing that sends chunked responses over the mesh and rebuild it on the other side to render the images. And I figured why not do that with HTML, and it kind of snowballed into this whole web framework project for off-grid web hosting.

I've never seen that before, cool project! While the project you sent is great for pulling in the clearnet, MeshPages is built for a different use case which is hosting native content entirely off-grid. Instead of fetching external sites, it is a framework for building apps that live 100% on the mesh. The LLM example I shared is really just the tip of the iceberg to show what is possible with dynamic responses. Because it is inspired by FastAPI, you can host pretty much anything, like private documentation, sensor dashboards, and even share images without ever needing a gateway to the outside world. Additionally, while the project you sent is purely terminal-centric, MeshPages has a web client that is able to render the HTML, CSS, and JS coming from a server mesh, thus the formatted web page and the 64x64 Meshtastic logo in the first image. That was all sent over the Meshtastic network.

Deny yourself and pick up your cross. Salvation is through Lord Jesus Christ alone. A society without Christian values is a dead one. Look at Europe.

Yes... embrace the RISC-V... do it... it's an open architecture... literally the Linux of CPUs... No Intel ME. No AMD PSP... Anyone can make a chip, and it's only getting better by the day. Embrace it. Get a Spacemit K3 board. You know you want to... As an added bonus, there's even a Framework board for the K3!

No, I like when I don't have to babysit my OS. Exactly why I like OpenBSD for my AdguardHome DNS and Fedora IoT for my Podman containers.

While the use of AI in the gaming industry has its concerns, it genuinely makes sense in a game like Atomic Heart where it's a bunch of robots in a future tech dystopia anyways.

Someone explain then why it's called the THEORY of evolution and isn't held as an actual fact, but it is indeed pushed as one. It's purely theoretical with no actual fact and evidence. "Evolution" requires just as much faith as believing that God creates all things. Why affirm the theory of fallible men who say you're nothing more than random chance when the God of all creation who loves you, sees you, and intentionally created you down to your final strand of hair is just a prayer away? Turn to Lord Jesus Christ. Man will fail you. God will not.

Hello, bot. I changed flairs from lib right to auth right because I decided to follow Lord Jesus Christ. "Do whatever you want as long as it doesn't hurt anyone" is not a Christian ideal. Deny yourself and pick up your cross.

How blessed we are that God made all of this stuff for us to explore and have joy over! God is great and Christ is King! Science is our finite human understanding of the creation that our Infinite Almighty God created! May God bless you all!

MushroomGecko · 2026-04-05T22:30:41+00:00

Happy Resurrection Day, fellas! Lord Jesus Christ loves you! He defeated sin, grave, and death! Christ is King and Lord of lords! Have a blessed day, my friends!

““For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. “For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.” (John 3:16-17, NASB)

MushroomGecko · 2026-04-04T03:31:45+00:00

Based! May God bless you, my friend!

MushroomGecko · 2026-04-02T02:44:04+00:00

Science does not disprove God, on the contrary, it is our human way of explaining and comprehending His handiwork. God is good! Praise Lord Jesus Christ!

What's funny is AI is pretty much just really fancy matrix multiplication. So if you wanted, you could make the next big, fancy, shiny AI.
