Finished a guide on building autonomous, off-grid, encrypted, and solar-powered communications infrastructure that lets you send text messages without any cellular or power infrastructure - using LoRa and Meshtastic!

https://anarchosolarpunk.substack.com/p/encryptedcomms

The guide includes step-by-step instructions on how to find compatible hardware, tips on upgrades, and ways to improve distance. Diagrams to explain mesh networking. How to flash devices, using Meshtastic, setting encryption. Getting power - Pretty much everything to get started.

Later on, I touch on various use cases from natural disasters - protests and civil unrest - conflict zones/wars and go into detail about security concerns, OPSEC tips, and some social and political backgrounds as to why we need autonomous community controlled infrastructure.

In the end, I explain the symbiotic relationship between mass political movements, revolutionary action, and autonomous infrastructure.
It works in a cycle:
Revolutionary action to build autonomous infrastructure - autonomous infrastructure to help with revolutionary action

How do you get people to ride bikes in the snow?

Studded tires are the magic ingredient, but they're expensive.

Last winter, a public transit agency in western #Sweden gave away free studded tires to people who committed to try winter cycling.

My daughters and I are feeding cows 10,000 pounds of macadamia nuts each and totally don't need to be taxed at 95+ percent of our income.

Od jakiegoś czasu obserwuję, że dobry zwyczaj dodawania altów do obrazków jest nieco w odwrocie. Szkoda. U mnie alty są zwykle lakoniczne, ale się staram :)
Nie psujmy tego zwyczaju i pamiętajmy o osobach, które mogą mieć problemy z zobaczeniem obrazka.

@fluchtkapsel @vagina_museum most things in your body move by being squished or yoinked

Inside you are two wolves. One is hyperventilating & the other is dissociating. They are both claustrophobic. The therapy bills are going to crush you

OK so I just saw a young American left youtube essayist cite Antonio Gramsci and he pronounced it "Gramski" multiple times and, TO BE CLEAR, I am in NO WAY making fun of this, it was just just adorable and hopeful because he fully and faithfully articulated Gramsci's shit, he had simply obviously only READ the name versus having meandered down an academic rabbithole like SOME people *COUGH*me*COUGH* and it just gives me a tiny bit of faith in "the youth."

This has been your Lefty Nerd Moment for today.
