This is pretty funny

I don’t have one. It’s to tinker with my first esp32 board and lora.

It’s basically a hobby. If you live somewhere super rural or something it might be interesting to chat with your neighbor or whatever but I think meshtastic is still too much in the alpha stage to be usable really.

It might be useful on a festival or something, where cell networks are overloaded and you and your friends can contact each other via meshtastic. Idk if that would work though.

Yeah I might upgrade to a 18650 cell that I reclaimed if the phone battery is too small.

Yeah I don’t have one around ^^

Actually though that’s not true, last night I found an old device of me that I could harvest a 18650 battery from.

That’s cool, will you post your setup in the meshtastic community?

Honestly just get a heltec v3 from aliexpress, it’s only like 12€.

The board works with the cellphone battery, even with just holding the wires to the contacts ^^

Yes exactly that’s what I am trying to do. I just found a 3.7v battery in an ancient cellphone of mine, maybe that’ll work as well.

Assuming that you’re living in the US I think the secret is that disposable vapes aren’t as abundant in Germany yet.

Oh that’s a good idea, I think supermarkets also collect batteries in general to recycle, maybe there I can find empty vapes.

Not in Berlin. I see them sometimes, but not often enough. I want one now ^^

Why are core numbers no longer climbing? I want 32 or 64 cores in consumer chips.

There’s a really cool community on reddit called QAnonCasualties. Maybe we need that here.

I don’t believe that you owe your toxic family time

Luckily happens less these days with LED lights
