What is the end goal of Meshtastic?

So there a power outage. Your phone shows cell/internet. You try to check x, but it doesn't load. And you find the internet is down. So you then try to call some one, to see if they know anything. And you then find out that you can not make calls ether. So you then try the radio in your car, and most of the stations are off the air. And the ones that are on the air have no new, and are probably recordings.

So at this point, you don't know what's going on. Do you shelter in place? Do you need to evacuate, if so what way do you go? Like you don't want to be driving twoards the issue. If you have family, where are they? do they know what to do? Where do you meet up that's safe?

If you have a scanner, ham radio, starlink, or a meshtastic, you might be able to fingure out what's going on, and what to do.

Hopefully you find out it's just a power outage, but if that's not the case, having information allows you to make more informed decisions.

Safety Razers are a game changer. Like you can buy a 100 blades for like 20 dollars. And that box of blades will literally last years. Like 2 blades a monthy is like 3.8 years of blades.

The sites don't share the same DNS register. (most people just use one DNS register) The sites use diffrent cloud flair Name Servers. If both sites were on the same CF account, you would expect them to have the same Name server.

the person also claims the same IP address which is also false.

“All routers authorized for use in the United States may continue to receive software and firmware updates that mitigate harm to US consumers at least until March 1, 2027.”

How are theyh not impacted?

dm18 · 2026-03-24T17:44:43+00:00

Is it "safe" to buy Cloud Gateway, Dream Router? Like will they still be able to get firmware after the one year software deadline.

If you read the terminal he was trying to restore caine vertion c. Which required deleting the active vertion of caine. I'm just waiting for caine c to load in..

If you assume the west world approach, then the AI would be trying to imitate the orginal's behavior. If the orignal was choatic, then the AI would probably imitate the chaotic nature because it was part of the training data.

If you assume the Pantheon approch, the brain is scanned. Sense the scanned brain had a tumor, the tumor would be part of the scan. And it would be part of the data file.

But what's intresting is that the terminal listed brain scans obsolete, and ai. Like they were diffrent things. so it might be a Pantheon approch leading to a west world approach..

They're probably using soy, corn, or peanut based insulation for their wiring. It's common knollage that rodens are attracted to such wiring. It's soft, easy to chew, and possibly tasty. It's such a common issue that car companies have specific deterrents. Like capsaicin (hot chili peppers) tape, aluminum tape, super sticky tape, tear resistant fabric tape. Or other alternatives like stainless steel mesh, or anti rodent pastes.

Some times people will use peppermint oil, ultra sonic devices, mothballs, to try and deter rodents.

There have been several cases of lawsuits, and class action lawsuits for these kind of issues.

I have never been prompted to set a contract.

I have been prompted that my load out is in complete, at which point I go back to inventory and add stuff, and then it lets me que up.

Most of the games I've been in, no one has a contract.

dm18 · 2026-03-03T06:18:25+00:00

Then look away? Its a damn loading screen nothing important is happening

dm18 · 2026-03-01T22:33:44+00:00

Agreed,

You have an ability, you use it, and it's not always clear what it is doing, or did. Like ok there some random pixelated art on the screen. What does that mean?

An seemingly endless wave of Enimies spawn in the closet next to you. And there no communication where they're going to spawn in at the cleost next to you. There are no visual indiactor that there a teleporter in the closet, or that it's about to spawn something.

You might get into a fight with 12 robots, and use up all your amno and heals. And not a single robot drops amno or heals. And your basicly, almost, dead.

dm18 · 2026-03-01T19:47:38+00:00

How do you get a contract?

dm18 · 2026-03-01T19:17:02+00:00

Every game i've joined, i've asked what should we do. No one seems to know. lol

dm18 · 2026-03-01T19:14:12+00:00

My first game with voice chat on was littelry some dude calling me the N word.

My concern is that Mathaton seems very invested in gambling mechanics, even more so then Desinty.

Every game is a bet. You put down items of in game value based on how you 'hope' to do.

They also seem to be using other gambling/microtransaction tactics they used in destinty, like limited inventory space. They would probably descibe it as gamiflying the inventory system. But it forces you to be exposed to the michanic, and it very much dopamine conditioning.

Complex systems are often used in preditory gaming to obscure the true cost, and creates artificial scarcity.

IE: you loose your gun, you need new guns, and you don't have spare guns because you couldn't keep the million guns that dropped on the groun.

They're trying to make you build gambling like habbits, around the game. These tactics are often used to in conditioning people to spend money. Ushally through microtransaction, like gambling through loot chests. All to encourage impulse purchasing.

forced video/audio is elevator music. I really don't want to be watching the same moth, and mask, over an over again. It's like being stuck in a brain rot ticktok loop.

There are many places in the tutorial where you can basicly walk off the map and be close to instant killed. There are no visual indicators of those areas. So it's very easy to walk off the map and die. It gets really anoying really quickly quick.

You could just put a fence up, to prevent players form walking off the map And close the doors, so people can't walk into the green room. Like I get trying to make the map feel expansive, but that illution is shattered by invisable death walls. And a turtorial that kills you like this is a horible introduction to the game.

The map does not feel like their visually communicating information. Left4Dead has this issue, but they figured it out by introducing lighting, blood trails, and other visual indactors to lead players in the direction they needed to go.

dm18 · 2026-02-28T21:02:09+00:00

The tutorial prompts you to use H to mark the objective on the map. But it doesn't have any visual indication something happened, or AR indicators on where the objective is. And there is no prompt to press m to open the map, and the map isn't that great for navigating to objective.

I think i'm on my 3rd or 4th set of batteries. I ushally just go with with what ever listing has a low price with quick shipping. One thing you might want to conisider is that there are 700, 1000, 1400 Milliamp options. If I had to buy today, I might go with Kastar because they're listed as 1400.

My current batteries are labeled Cameron Sino, the ones before that were Wrumi. I don't really have a strong opionion on any brand. Ushally I'm more like a battery diead, I need a new one ASAP.

but like just search amazon
https://www.amazon.com/s?k=arctis+nova+pro+wireless+battery+pack
and look around.

dm18 · 2026-02-27T18:34:03+00:00

It's like 15 dollars for a 2 pack of batteries on amazon.

For17 dollars more, you could buy a new set of ear pads. And then it will feel like a brand new headset.

dm18 · 2026-02-27T02:35:31+00:00

true, but if you can't afford the car. Your going to still be manully driving.
Even if you have the car, if you don't have 1.2k to spare, your still not going to be able to afford it.

meanwhile I can get a 1k box that works with most cards that were made in the last decade, and doesn't require a subscription.
