  9. @loriemerson Thank you for collecting all these #othernetworks wonders that open up new links and connections for me. Today, someone recommended me a detailed article about the southafrican example of #Sneakernet you describe in the book ... and I listened to a recording of #EarthMoonEarthCommunication by Katie Paterson.

  10. Anybody of you folks ever visited a deaddrop?
    I always wondered if I catch a virus or something. But I watched Arte Tracks about Sneakernet and now im a bit currios. 5 minutes from my flat there are deaddrops from 2015 and 2021.

  11. Sneakernet : le partage de données hors ligne contre la Big Tech

    youtube.com/watch?v=bVjECMbCZOo

    Comment est-ce qu'on s'envoyait des photos, des fichiers, des sons... avant Internet ? Comment partager des données sans les donner par la même occasion aux #GAFAM ? Qu'est-ce qui se passerait si Instagram, TikTok ou Gmail disparaissaient du jour au lendemain ? La réponse de plusieurs collectifs de nerds engagés est de se tourner vers le #sneakernet, littéralement le réseau baskets.

  13. Le SneakerNet, une alternative Cyberpunk/Underground qui est l'avenir d'un reseau réinventé.
    Franchement, Tracks est une de mes émissions que je trouve agreable et stimulante.
    Pour cet épisode sur le SneakerNet,
    @GeoffreyDorne et @denissalem auraient eu toute leur place, dommage.

  14. CW: Recreational computer touching

    Me: This data is important and cannot be re-created if lost, so in addition to making a local NAS copy I'm gonna do a backup in the cloud.
    Computer: Okay.
    Me: Progress-bar is taking ages to progress. I'll let it run and do something else with my time.
    Computer: Computer-touching has stopped so I'll go to sleep.
    Me:
    Computer: Huh? Why'd you wake me up?
    Me: Only 80GB to go. You can do this.
    Computer: Zzzz.
    Me: Sneakernet is starting to look like a viable option.

  16. Guess people in the U.S (and maybe elsewhere) will have to find a way to exchange digital files without internet if things continues this way.

    I mean, micro-SD are cheap, can store a lot of stuff and very small and light, so, easy to exchange and hide in a snail mail.

    EDIT: And some Pirateboxes! I forgotted them!

  17. @silverpill @Hyolobrika

    Hehehe.... I suppose this is my opportunity to plug Joshua's free domain name service here that's been a trusted mainstay for over 20 years :p

    Perhaps one of the best parts is that you can see how many days (years) the domain has been part of the service, to dissuade concerns over whether there's a likelihood of it suddenly disappearing :)

    And.... who doesn't love #FreeBSD?

    Aside from lotech #Sneakernet schemas, there's also several FOSS based community driven initiatives. There's been a lot of real-world, ad-hoc development since my years of participation in the IRTF/IRSG DTNRG. Full disclosure, I was also formerly employed by Semtech. The notion that there's a use case for communications that can take months, even decades to arrive (or never at all) is a valid concern for many practical applications.

    More immediate, and relevant communications systems for most folks here on Terra Firma include projects like Lokinet, which has some great info HERE, and also aspires to the same level of, um... disconnectivity (sneakernet-like) or operability that @silverpill mentions above - the value of having a client/server architecture that is prepared to exploit this out of the box is much relevant that one might think.

    Some of these semi-production or production ready real world initiatives and communities are:

    - CellSol - It is noteworthy to mention that Texas is the only state in the USA that sports an (actually only mostly) autonomous electricity grid (not dependent upon the national grid), although it's not publicly managed, and has been criticized as such due in part to nearly 1000 deaths occurring in the winter of 2021. The repo is HERE. Here's a PoC for one such use case from the PoV of a native Texan: Apologies for directly linking to an article in the monolithic silo space.

    During my years living quite literally off-grid in the wilderness of the forested mountains in Northern California, I had the privilege of meeting and contracting for several farms and individuals deeply steeped in what is generally referred to as the prepper movement. These weren't cray cay militants (at least not most of them) or paranoiacs calling for revolution or believing the end is nigh, but rather, farmers and families who were, rightfully so, extremely concerned with security and safety for their small communities and loved ones. To survive in places like that, which exist all over the world, one must begin with self-sufficiency that covers 4 seasons; beyond that, protecting the 'me and mine' aspects of your assets and property are very real considerations.

    The work I focused on led me to developing microwave surveillance systems using inexpensive, solar powered Ubiquiti Nanostations with ranges capable of exceeding 10KM, strategically placed in almost inaccessible locations overlooking entire valleys as well as within small perimeters of their farms and households. This included off the shelf PTZ cameras, many of which were capable of license plate and facial recognition, but more importantly, being able to determine the difference between things like Bears, Deer, and Humans - false positive intrusions detected are quite frustrating, lolz.

    All of this was coupled together with Shinobi, which can be monitored and controlled from anywhere, on any device. The repo is here.

    With the extreme threat levels of thievery and other concerns in those regions, and continuous incidents of such, a comprehensive #FOSS based, #solar powered communications and surveillance system is an in demand market. Internet access is of course, problematic in such regions, which creates the market for WISPs operating in the unlicensed microwave bands a high demand commodity as well.

    This is merely demonstrative of the need for another niche type computing arena - community networks completely unconnected to the Internet:

    - A BLE LRMN project - The git repo for the dual-licensed software is [HERE(https://github.com/mwaylabs/fruitymesh).
    - Many more BLE projects (many in Rust) here
    - More BLE for IoT
    - Off-Grid Mesh Networks using LoRa and/or BLE
    - BSD licensed OpenThread
    - Message Queuing Telemetry Transport - NOTE: For XMPP, ejabberd has native broker services.
    - Freeing up Zigbee devices w/MQTT
    - OSS-7 / Dash-7 Lora/LoraWAN technologies are sub Ghz.
    - More (dry) IEEE related Mesh stuffs

    All of these projects, protocols, and initiatives have solution based choices for the various kinds of Delay Tolerant Networking standards and communities actively developing for connectionless, intermittently connected systems, or autonomous networks that aren't neccessarily interdependant upon a classic, traditional, Internet connection.

    Not sufficient to just eschew the deprecated, privacy disrespecting monolithic silos, it's also not prudent to depend upon clearnet aspects of the Internet either. In practice, it's possible to take pretty much any platform technology that listens for packets and fashion the ability to be accessible and available via I2P, Tor, IPFS Yggdrasil, and other IP routed constructs, yet moreover, the majority of people only consider intercommunication in terms of the IP routed packet switched network we call the Internet (powered almost entirely by Cisco IOS and the like), without due consideration given to the fact that this single common denominator is also a single choke point - kludgy platforms like masto that can't even keep up with the contemporary movements in the social networking landscape aren't going to fare well when it comes to the expanding horizons opening up with movements like those above, while others like Sreams, Mitra, and perhaps protocols such as Nostr that exhibit the ambitions to explore and exploit emerging technologies in communication will fare much better, adapting (and embracing layer 1 & 2 networking) along the way.

  18. Lately I have been thinking about my #airgapped systems. I currently use NNCP over USB drives to get data to/from them. Highly secure #sneakernet, but not the most practical sometimes. In thinking of alternatives that don't involve a whole network stack, I keep coming back to #serial lines.

    Going beyond the old 115.2Kbps is now common; Gearmo has some that use a FTDI chipset rated at 920Kbps over RS-232, but in my experience can hit 2Mbps. 1/

  19. Tools that work #Offline with #NoInternet

    Moving now to more advanced tools, #NNCP is lets you assemble a network of peers that can communicate asynchronously using #sneakernet, #USB drives, radios, CD-Rs, Internet, #Tor, #Yggdrasil, #Syncthing, #Dropbox, #S3, you name it. Supports multi-hop file transfer and remote execution. Fully end-to-end encrypted. It's the offline version of #ssh. nncp.mirrors.quux.org/ 5/
