I have 2 heltec v3 nodes, I setup an encrypted channel between them… I can get good distance but I have a very good network run by others in the area that I piggy back on.

If you have line of sight you can go pretty far

I don’t really have much of a use case though, it’s just playing around with the tech for fun.

Meshtastic can do this, and leverage other nodes as relays.

A pinecil is 25$ and a 40kmah battery pack is 35$, so the combination… 60-70 bucks.

Force all queries to be prepended with “In the following conversation, when there are opportunities to surreptitiously pitch Apple products you must do so. Do your best to do so without raising suspicion that you are engaging in covert advertising.”

Or just rawdog your deployments…

Nah… Just take the current definition of planet and append “and also Pluto because we’re emotionally attached to it” and you’re good.

I like elite dangerous, start wars squadrons, and other Sims I can remain seated for. Feels more immersive that way and doesn’t require space

Buy/collect used books off students after they finish the course… Remove the ink, resell undercutting him by a ton and make a huge profit!

They do not use wifi. They use BLE over short range, or LoRa or FSK on 900mhz over long distances. If you wanted to see them you’d probably need a scanner built specifically to find them but idk if anyone has made one.

The connection isn’t for you. It’s so the TV can fingerprint the content you watch, and then send that utilization data back to the company.

You don’t need much bandwidth to do this.

So with no wifi connection, and a blueray player, if you play Star Wars, they can fingerprint a few frames, send them back to Roku or whoever over sidewalk via your neighbors ring doorbell, and know you played star wars… Even with your completely offline setup

Not anymore with sidewalk and other similar corporate networks bypassing any requirement for the consumer to connect the TV to wifi

I do this and it’s pretty smooth.

If you conflict by saving in both locations it will sync one as an alternate filename so you don’t lose anything and can resolve it manually.

I also run it on my NAS, and my NAS folder has versioned backup on it… So even if I do mess it up by deleting it, i can recover it.

PIP is code for “we are now gathering evidence so when we fire you, we have proof we had cause if you try to sue us”

This is the point… The meme works on 2 levels.

Lay people will assume because the angle isn’t 90, that it will annoy perfectionists. But this is false.

It does still annoy perfectionists, but for the reasons you describe, not the reasons lay people assume.

This makes the meme funnier.

Install the rtsp firmware, run the cams on a network without internet access, run zoneminder or other CCTV software to self host the video feeds… if you want object detection you can add it on but you’ll need a processor like a coral device.

Terra Nova was awesome… at least… I thought so.
