  1. Where's the best site to buy a 7" lcd touchscreen & ~300W (Peak 600W) 296Wh rechargeable battery?

    Neither need to be in a plastic case because they will be mounted in this vintage soviet oscilloscope with a #SBC.

  2. Their customer service and tech support has been fabulous so far.

    I'm in for ~120 with them and I have a 4c+ 4gb, 5 8gb, 1 firebeetle? Esp32 and 2 esp32 with 3 mp cameras with timers and wifi. 1 as part of m5 stack with case and battery!

    Lol, i know! It's a single board computer that literally fits in tge palm of your hand, but has 2 hdmi ports, micro usb, wifi, bt, ethernet. It's insane. I sat there shocked holding the 4c+ in my hand. I had seen pictures, but it's hard to believe.

    You can build a robot, use it for #SelfHosting a #fediverse instance or playing Atari and Nintendo emulators. I'm leaning towards #Friendica or #Calckey for the #groups functionality.

    These even smaller #ESP32 #SBC can do a lot, too. I have a #Gemini capsule in mind.

    I told them that I wanted to build a portable, solar powerable Fediverse instance/server built into an ild Soviet oscilloscope. :success:

  4. I gotta say it was a good day.

    I just got a shipping notification that my FREE $159 Rock 5 8gb #SBC is in transit from the UK!

    I found them looking for a #RaspberryPi alternative. I bought the 4c+ to #SelfHost a #Fediverse instance, but I guess I'll use the better one for that and run emulators in the 4c+.

    They are giving away 500 of them if you can come up with a reasonable project to use it with.

    Really, I've just gotten way into nerding out on the #fediverse and it's potential for resistance. The next logical step is #SelfHosting a portable instance in an old Soviet oscilloscope scope case, of course. 😂

    But, those concerns should give everyone pause. I'm still not convinced on best alternatives to free #Cloudflare tunnel to protect home ISP.

    Still not sold on the name, either.

    What about?

    If it has a solar panel=Solardeck

    If it is just a portable instance = Fediport

    It it is Fediport + Gemini capsule or accessories = Fedideck

    Something along those lines has definitely come up in threads around #SelfHosting a portable instance.

    Ad-hoc wifi was mentioned, but that's way above my paygrade.

    My goal for this year is to have a portable self-hosted instance (#Fediport) with at least 3 connection (Ethernet, wifi & bluetooth) and charging options (solar, 12v and 110v)

    Other cool related things that I found out about are #Gemini capsules and #solarprotocol

    solarprotocol.net/guides.html

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gemini_(

    I would like to incorporate the Gemini capsule, on an #ESP32, into a #Solardeck and use #yunohost to manage the two.

    A #Fediport, or fully modded-out a #Solardeck, is the thing that I'm trying to create to contribute to the #Fediverse, of course!🤣

    A metal case that holds at least one #SBC like a #RaspberryPi alternative, Rock4C+, a rechargable battery, and multiple connections and charging options to keep the instance operating but portable.

    Ideally, it would also contain a #Gemini capsule, LCD Screen and Bluetooth keyboard, HDMI out, solar and a #HAMRadio as accessories, of course!🤣

    I think that I will build mine out of the Soviet oscilloscope in first post, but it can be a simple metal, acrylic or #3dPrinted box. It doesn't even need a screen because you can use external monitors.

  8. What do any #Solarpunk or #Cyberdeck people think about it?

    Is #Solardeck a thing?

    I'm picturing an lcd touchscreen, solar panels and wireless keyboard and ideally be a portable #Akkoma instance

    I would hate to have to go back to reddit to discuss this!😂
