anyway im thinking about cheap raspi meshnets for protesters to carry in bags to enable rapid communication, using like, 20$ of hardware including battery and raspi zero
@nire consider the TP-Link MR3040. pretty easy to install OpenWRT Linux on it.
Probably not as easy as a raspi tho. but it does have a battery built in.
@loam it also costs 30$ more than an rpi 0-w and i can almost guarantee you you get a better battery for 30$ than the mr3040 gets
@loam (also i think better specs iirc)
@nire hmm yeah it's definitely more expensive than i remembered it being. i thought it was more like $25...
@loam i think its out of production now
@nire what is the raspi 0 situation now btw? i haven't looked in a while but i remember them being all outta stock..
@loam they released a new one with wifi
@nire oh damb. a zero with wifi! that changes things yeah
@nire ah, oh well then
