  1. Hello fediverse!

    I'm looking for any info or suggestion regarding tools or technologies in low tech and or low bandwidth situations in education.

    I'm gathering hints, documentation, tips and anything that can be useful to allow people in areas with low internet connections and maybe old hardware to be able to get involved in teaching environment.

    Please, if you can, share this so that I can get help from as many people as possible!

  2. Nginx / FFMPeg Gurus: Is this a crazy dumb idea to save CPU/Memory resources?
    Rather than saving a whole mass of still images, adding individual text overlays at the time of generation, from the live video security camera. Why not....
    Save the live video feed to a file.
    (Say, 30 minute segments)
    At the same time, have ffmpeg or convert generate a text overlay image every minute.
    At the end of 30 minutes, combine the last 30 overlays into the 30 minute video with each image lasting 1 minute at the desired output file.
