Smartphones in 2040:

Whatever. As long as I can run LineageOS or Debian on it.

but it was removed by automod (?)

This community only allows news articles.

Because if we don’t build and profit from the Torment Nexus, someone else will

Lol, of course. I need to do a re-watch.

I’ve heard that before but cannot place it. What is that from?

For best results, it depends on the context.

For example, when I’m dealing with people who cannot (or refuse) to do the simplest of tasks, I’ve found myself muttering “ugh, just read the instructions I wrote you troglodyte”.

Because if neither “side” is going to stand by democracy, why are we even bothering with the charade?

It’s shitty, but, like you said, I get it. He’s also not wrong.

SNACO?

Lol, well, maybe if Eeyore would can it once in a while and just let people enjoy things…

I think I’m just gonna get some Pi Zeros + cameras and just roll my own. Probably use the NoIR versions and some cheap IR illuminators. Feed those into Zoneminder.

Bonus points if I can find some old CCTV cameras, gut them, and fit the pi camera to those optics.

That’s a real hero move, and I appreciate it.

Commenting so I can remember to check back for any suggestions. I’ve basically run into this problem:

I’ve been wanting to start a local Mesh group. There’s nothing coordinated here, though I do see a random node every few days.

Would you care to share a bit about your process of setting up and some of the “checkboxes” one would need to go through to start organizing something like that for an area?

Also, are you going to try to get listed on the Meshtastic local groups list?

Not sure what country, but in the US, wouldn’t that technically be illegal (at least between co-workers)? I know some places, such as call centers, won’t let you speak another language to customers without approval (for liability reasons, I assume).

She would get very angry really fast if she heard anything in a language she didn’t understand.

Karen es una cabrón.

Are you setting the multiplier value to the voltage? If so, that’s not correct. It’s not a literal value but a ratio.

On my Heltec V3s, I have been fine with the default firmware values (they’re on the linked page below).

ADC Multiplier Override

Ratio of voltage divider for battery pin e.g. 3.20 (R1=100k, R2=220k)

Overrides the ADC_MULTIPLIER defined in the firmware device variant file for battery voltage calculation.

Should be set to floating point value between 2 and 6

Calibration Process

1. Install the rechargeable battery.
2. Charge the battery until full. Indication of this state may vary depending on device. At this point, the battery voltage should be 4.2V ±1%.
3. Input the “Battery Charge Percent” displayed on the screen or in your connected app into the calculator below.
4. If “Battery Charge Percent” (e.g., B 3.82V 60%) is not displayed on the screen, it means that the default value of “Operative Adc Multiplier” is too high. Lower the “Operative Adc Multiplier” to a smaller number (it is recommended to decrease by 0.1) until the screen displays “Battery Charge Percent”. Enter the current “Operative Adc Multiplier” in use into the “Operative Adc Multiplier” field in the calculator. Also, input the “Battery Charge Percent” displayed on the screen into the calculator.
5. Click the “Calculate” button to compute the “Calculated New Operative Adc Multiplier”, and set it as the new “Operative Adc Multiplier” for the device.

The calculator is below that on the doc page: https://meshtastic.org/docs/configuration/radio/power/

Keep this in mind when you see brand new accounts spewing out random news sites you’ve never heard of.

It’s like phone manufacturers have run out of ideas and will do anything except stop making tall, skinny phones. I miss horizontal pixels and not needing a step ladder to reach the top of the screen, dammit!

I’m not seeing any mainstream media coverage.

It really irks me when people use “mainstream media” as a pejorative like there’s some kind of conspiracy. There are way more sources covering it than that, but I think that’s more than enough to make my point.

I can’t speak for your situation, but I do know of too many examples of marriages “just because” that made both partners completely miserable for decades. And their disgust at each other definitely was not good for the kid to grow up around.

If she’s someone you could see spending your life with, just not right now, then it’s worth considering. But either way, I would advise against agreeing to a shotgun wedding and leave that decision between you and her.

Sounds like her parents are trying to force you into a shotgun wedding.

Ultimately, it’s up to you if you want to go into a marriage that is very much going to be unhappy (I know currently and grew up around lots of terible pregnancy / stay together for the kids marriages) Personally, I’d just setup child support arrangements and discuss with her what role, if any, I would have in the child’s life and politely, but firmly, tell her parents to fuck off (you’re both adults).

Edit: And if she doesn’t want to have a baby, I would also support and assist with that.
