I don’t know about everyone else but I think the OP doesn’t like China.

It’s all he posts about…may be some bias there…

Food for thought

Oh wow that is small. I may check that out

What kind did you get? I’ve got one that’s about the size of the tablet and while I do really like it at home it is fairly cumbersome to take out with me

Been reading a lot of early christian stuff. I am not religious at all but am fascinated by how religion has evolved.

Also been reading some works on witchcraft and alchemy. Not because I believe in any of it but because it is very interesting.

It’s sort of amazing how we explained natural phenomena when we did not understand it. I’m also a bit amazed by how long these things can be passed down through oral history. I know older people who believe in some of this stuff, things like the zodiac for when you cut animals, and for fishing.

I can’t imagine they know where these ideas come from.

Edit: spelling and wording

I do wonder if Marxism applies to Aliens. I mean with humans <insert ferengi photo> it is the understanding of the world that makes the most sense.

Does that apply to say, whatever other species we may meet?

Is it possible to meet an Alien species that had completely different modes of production that we can’t imagine? Maybe. I dunno.

I also imagine most spacefaring species (if faster than light travel is even possible) have surpassed communism as a mode of production and have moved on to something that deals with the contradictions within it.

This is all make-believe though. Seems like an unknowable thing until it happens. So probably best to not think about it

If you do anything outdoorsey then trailsense is a must have.

It has all kinds of useful information and tools that can all be used completely offline.

Metal detector, cloud tracking, astronomy tools, ballistics, offline maps (with triangulation), etc…

So many useful things

Is the story not just “The Odyssey”? I mean I can’t see it deviating much…

Some people say he’s joking. I really don’t understand how you can interpret that as a joke.

But maybe he is. I doubt it

I saw where Trump announced he’s running again, and I just wish he would have done it later so I wouldn’t have to see an endless barrage of liberals saying that “It’s illegal” and how “congress will stop him”.

Also I am putting my prediction up of a Trump win in 2028.

This is very interesting. It’s a shame the driver support is lackluster.

Hopefully in not too long these Chineese GPU’s and CPU’s can become more common and recieve better support.

I am not sure what the operating system landscape is like in China but do these manufacurers offer better support for windows systems? I sort of assumed china was largely on linux

Vietnam and China have a pretty rocky relationship no?

It’s probably one of my favorite documentaries and I think should be used as an eye-opener to how dangerous anti-communism is.

It also showcases some of the most depraved people I’ve ever seen. The man (I can’t remember his name, his name should not be remembered anyways) on the rooftop showing how he would garrotte suspected communists is disgusting

The problem with these lora implementations is how easy it is to disrupt them.

Meshtastic is one of the larger ones and it floods it’s own network with interference from poorly set rules in the protocol.

It doesn’t help that 915mhz is in a range that often only allows 1w devices. These radios are simply too weak to be used in a serious scenario where state actors can disrupt the frequency.

Reticulum seems nice especially because it can be used in the lower frequencies which will allow for much longer range communication. And a lot of those devices for say 20m can operate up to 1500w. Which while still easy to interfere will be more resilient than a typical lora device.

Lora to me best serves as a very contained way to interact locally (within a few km) with a handful of people.

Any large network would not be hard to compromise I imagine all it would take is finding one device used as a router for a private channel. And there is instant access.

Reticulum may be more secure than meshtastic which is what I am more familiar with but I don’t know to what degree
