If you dont need an sbc or something arm based mini pcs/thin clients/laptops work well. I run redlib, yamtrack and a monero node on hp t630 w/ 16GB ram (bought before the rampocalypse for ~ $60) and a torrent seedbox/streaming nas on wyse 3040 (~$10). Here’s a great website about thin clients https://www.parkytowers.me.uk/thin/hware/hardware.shtml
Monero - private, permissionless, decentralized, p2p, digital cash system.
Reticulum - cryptography-based networking stack designed to build secure, decentralized, and resilient local or wide-area networks using readily available hardware. It operates independently of traditional internet protocols (like IP), enabling communication under adverse conditions such as high latency and extremely low bandwidth with:
Basically internet 2.0
Arweave - private, permissionless, decentralized, p2p, permanent data storage/server.
https://ihostart.com/ one of the cheapest I know.
https://ardrive.io/ for a permanent, encrypted, decentralized, blockchain based solution.
A raspberry pi hidden in a wall behind a power socket or in some always plugged in appliance like a fridge or tv at some place with wifi or a phone with a data plan connected to a portable solar charger set up on some roof or tree.
So you don’t believe that people have a right to not be murdered?
Trail Sense - a lot of useful tools like compass, ruler, bubble level, metal detector, unit converter, 3D AR astronomy visualizer and many more.
Editor - a simple text editor, very useful on GrapheneOS to view/edit text files
OpenKeychain - symmetric and asymmetric encryption and decryption with PGP
Catima - loyalty card wallet
Audile - music recognition app
So like a week from now?
Have a look at xmrbazaar.com, it’s not open source yet, but it will be after they get out of beta.
Can you name some popular projects against big tech by conservatives?
The entire alt-tech sphere, I guess, but other than that I can’t really think of many projects that explicitly say they lean right or left. As far as I can tell, most projects focus on working on whatever they’re trying to accomplish and don’t mention their political opinions for whatever reason, maybe because they don’t want to alienate their users and contributors or maybe because they are made by many people, each with their own opinions, and there isn’t a single shared belief system behind it, like ThePirateBay for example. We can try to infer what political stance someone holds, like the CEO of Brave, for example, who donated some money to an anti-gay marriage bill in 2008, or the CEO of Proton, who said some positive things about the Republican party recently, but I don’t think it’s fair to assign a political affiliation to the entire project because some of the team members expressed their opinions.
Are you sure? most people working on projects against big tech tend to be very left leaning.
I think that you make a mistake and assume that just because someone agrees with you on not wanting to be reliant on big tech, they also agree with you on everything else, or you read something like
We want to advance human rights and freedoms by creating and deploying free and open source anonymity and privacy technologies, supporting their unrestricted availability and use, and furthering their scientific and popular understanding
and falsely assign that to be a left-wing stance, when in reality most people, left or right, would support that. I haven’t seen any evidence that most people working on anti big tech projects are left-leaning. Most people don’t publicly share their political beliefs.
FOSS is for everyone. Not wanting to be dependent on big tech isn’t uniquely a leftist ideal, and it should be obvious by now that the political affiliation and community guidelines of big tech companies are entirely dependent on the current political landscape, not any moral values or held ideals, and can change at any moment.
I was about to install it on my server until I found out that it’s developed by the UK government. Now I won’t trust it even though it’s open source.
Imo a just works, deb based kde distro with nvidia drivers, flatpaks and no snaps is what we need to bring forth the year of the linux desktop.
I’ll stick with monero.
Imo they should have kept the ipv4 format but instead of maxing out at 255.255.255.255 make it 65535.65535.65535.65535 this aproach makes the address pool more than 4000000000 times larger and is backward compatible with ipv4 so it could be a drop in replacement for most things. And if we ever do end up running out of over quintilion (18446744073709551616) ips we can just keep going up, to 4294967295.4294967295.4294967295.4294967295.
The point isn’t so much the speed and comfort of the commute itself.
The point is that a car is an inefficient power-wasting piece of trash, and the oil rigs that power it have significant negative impacts on people and the environment, all for the sake of commuters being lazy idiots. And you’d have to be an idiot to let a car take away your mobility.
