Us seniors are gonna have so much work a few years down the road. ☺️

I’m dying 🤣

If it got great WiFi reception, that would be a killer.

Agreed. Snap is. It can do desktop and system components.

USA Today working overtime for its shareholders.

Goddamn!

Do you have a link with info on different antennas and pattern characteristics?

Elon Musk’s automaker has been backsliding in China for the past five consecutive months on a year-on-year basis, according to data from the country’s Passenger Car Association. Tesla’s shipments plunged 49% in February from a year earlier to just 30,688 vehicles, the lowest monthly figure since way back in July 2022, when it shipped just 28,217 EVs — and that was in the middle of Covid.

Interesting. I guess it’s a self-limiting problem. In effect LongFast would be limited by the number of nodes in your vicinity. Even in a large network, messages propagate to 3 hops so you won’t be able to see messages from further away, even if the mesh has thousands more nodes further away.

This mesh doesn’t seem to have 100-node limit. It seems to be a device limit where a device can only remember up to 100 nodes and it seems to be removing old ones as it discovers new ones.

What about topical channels if the mesh grows large, to hundreds or thousands of people? E.g. ask support questions in “Local Support” instead of “LongFast”

Would you create a public channel that doesn’t need vetting, posting its info publicly somewhere?

So something like “Local Community Mesh” with local people in it. How would you share the channel with new people who get a Meshtastic device?

Who’s in your private channel?

Stop attacking me. 😂

But yeah, no use case other than - checking if it works. I’ll probably setup a standalone node on my balcony and leave it be to strengthen the network.

She goes out to talk about topics she’s not well versed in and says outright wrong stuff. In general, scientists who specialize in a field are often no better than a layman in the fields they have no background in. She’s not the only one who does this. Some scientists merely share uninformed opinions. Others do it for money. They build a persona that is imbued with trust by their existing expertise then they use this trust to keep pumping out other material for profit. That’s Sabine. Also Jordan Peterson. No they’re not the same but the scheme is. Laymen don’t know any better and absorb the material, correct or incorrect, since they don’t have the background to recognize when it’s bullshit.

I just got a unit couple of days ago and it… just works. It’s quite impressive.

Sabine is an idiot but she’s probably not wrong today.

“The way we raise birds now, there’s not a lot of genetic variability,” Hansen said. “They’re all the same bird, basically.”

Because Tesla makes money, with the byproduct of cars.

This is nice but it appears to be around A55 performance which is similar to the SiFive cores. I’m eager to see high speed cores that match the upper end of the ARM core range. And if they’re happen to be open source…
