Small making-of of my “True Beauty Is So Painful” piece (listening to “True Beauty Is So Painful” by Oomph! in the background), because “AI art = just pressing a button” is still a thing.

Here I’m showing briefly (15 MB max file upload) my SDXL workflow in ComfyUI, from node structure to model choice to parameters.

LoRAs in this setup are only linked to the positive prompt, because I wanted to fine-tune their weights there specifically, without affecting the negative prompt.

During rendering, I ran in parallel:
- GPU load with radeontop, you can clearly see how on RDNA2 everything (matrix multiplications, convs, etc.) runs over the shaders
- Temperatures & power states briefly shown with corectrl

Peak at 187 W, hotspot briefly at 97 °C
RDNA2 doing RDNA2 things…

Video workflow:
- recorded with OBS
- edited in Kdenlive
- transcoded with VAAPI (H.264)

No cloud, just decisions, iteration and real hardware.

I thought was a fork of the other but apparently there's no direct connection between #meshcore and #meshtastic other than both use #LoRa?

Ça intéresserai des gens de monter un groupe local #LoRa #Meshtastatic ? L'idée c'est de rester simple : Appareils compacts fixes ou mobiles, en 868 MHz en LongFast pour une plus large compatibilité vu que c'est pas mal de gens restent dans les réglages par défaut, ce qui n'est pas plus mal…

Je vois 3 nœuds dans aux alentours ville dont 2 appartenant à la même personne et quelques autres personnes plus loin, bien que « atteignables »

L'idée étant de faire des test, échanger technique…

Which case actually makes sense for a LilyGO T-Beam SUPREME in real field use?

I compared designs, materials, print costs, and durability (PLA vs nylon vs resin), plus SD-card access. Includes a side-by-side video (7' 49") comparison.

Two cases: 1) LilyGO designed and 2) Alley Cat designed.  Both for the LilyGO T-Beam SUPREME.  Pianistic hands included in picture to give relative size.

My muse of half-baked ideas has whispered these ideas to me… d’you reckon any might be worth taxing more neurons with?

Mixing LoRa / Mesh networking with Geocaching. (Hiding solar repeaters near caches?)

Firmware for the Heltec v3 LoRa board that allows you to see all received data; like WireShark, but for LoRa.

Porting FORTH to the Heltec; for interactive LoRa exploration.

Today, I received a new toy, a Lilygo T-Echo. It is a device using #LoRa (Long Range) radio technology.
In short, you can send and receive messages without Internet, phone network nor satellites.
I installed #MeshCore, an open-source mesh networking protocol and software platform designed for off-grid, low-power text communication using LoRa. I configured it using the official Android app, and then switched to an open-source app (still in alpha version), MeshCore Open.
New node in #Copenhagen!

Lilygo T-Echo, grey colour, turned on, showing on the e-ink screen that it is connected and that there is no new message.

Stupid but real question: how would I go about affixing a #LoRa node to a tree in our garden? #meshtasic #hamradio

Modified Meshtastic firmware to log GPS tracks directly to the SD card on the LilyGO T-Beam SUPREME. Added a device menu indicator for SD card presence; detection is currently flaky and under investigation.

Sample GPS tracks recorded by LilyGO T-Beam Supreme with enhanced firmware that exposes the SD Card for recording such interesting data.Thee LilyGO T-Beam SUPREMES.  Horizontal is basic unit without a case, it displays the new menu item showing "SD ON" to indicate the SD card is being read by the unit.  The Alley Cat case is on the left, excellent.  The LilyGO case offered on their GitHub page as STL files -- pretty flimsy.  But, the units I received fit into the case, so with FreeCAD I can create a shape of the unit within the STLs and use that as a basis for a new case design.  The LilyGO case was graciously 3D printed by a kind member of the Spark Studio Salem.

Es gibt etwa Neues in der Landschaft der internetunabhängigen Kommunikation.

Ich habe es bisher nur kurz überflogen, aber das scheint mir ein wirklich interessantes Projekt zu sein, welches da gerade auf die Beine gestellt wird.

Ich werde es mir im Laufe der nächsten Woche einmal genauer anschauen.

#RDUMesh #MeshCore is coming together. We are starting to see an inter-city link forming between repeaters 13 miles apart in #HillsboroughNC and #RaleighNC. More #Meshtastic nodes are starting to switch to #MeshCore. Join us! #LoRa https://rdumesh.org

Долгожданный или как минимум давно обещанный эпизод подкаста про #Meshtastic готов!

https://p.skobk.in/@sporadic_podcast/episodes/ep06-meshtastic-feat-side2k

В нём мы с гостем говорим о том, что такое Meshtastic, какие у него могут быть кейсы применения у разных людей.

Здесь же обсуждаем какие готовые устройства типа "купил и пользуешься" стоит покупать, какие можно собрать из готовых компонентов самостоятельно и даже чуть-чуть говорим про полный самосбор для совсем отпетых железячников.

Гость выпуска: side2k

Камео диктором: @th3rdsergeevich

За информационную помощь и частичный факт-чек спасибо @iowoof, @rayslava и участникам чата Meshtastic_arkh.

Слушать выпуск можно:

  • В подкастовых приложениях
    • Если у вас Apple - придётся добавить RSS-фид вручную
  • В Castopod
  • На YouTube
  • В Яндекс.Музыке
  • В СберЗвуке
  • В Telegram
  • И ещё в пачке сервисов-агрегаторов, которые используют открытые каталоги вроде Podcast Index

Если понравилось - можете поставить лайк и оставить комментарий на той платформе, где вы слушаете ну и репостнуть в федивёрсе.

Приятного прослушивания!
