Awesome!


Excellent starting points enjoy the process and ask for help when needed!


Thanks, man!


I need some guidance!

Free WiFi? 🧐


Will do.


can u talk more about no cell service


Deep respect for that!!


Let's go 🚀


Sweet 🤙


This is the way, anon


Onward 🫡


I hope to emulate this - it will happen in time. Besides just doing it….what is the best resource for learning everything past the garden?


I have the same question. What's this free WiFi, nostr:npub14cgq353exzmhdsvqjtmw4dq7fvyleuls8umyrvd5umhr4gtx6asq7hqjhl?


I really need to learn about the other nodes, printing and mesh


This is what men dream of

Cities, simple minds, chiming bells …
My all steady mind mines my lightness
My all steady mind cashes the checks #humanity wrote.

Nope! 🙂↔

Absolution
Absolute Chaos humans chose
My mind plays chaos when I rose
Always all ways Nostr only
My mind runs (multiple) timelines, trailheads, life experiences, patience
Staying virtuous outside all reasons
Seasons said …

Leavening bread
My timelines aren’t dictated by human nature
My wilder times … sublime
Subliminal brain altering

All good.
Change the narrative
War isn’t fair
My respect for most I’ve met in #btc
WILL NEVER happen
Trash my heart
Trash my life
Expecting me to give to humanity
Agape love
Sacred promise to God
I follow no one
Why would I
I’m Michele
Loving humanity
While they continue to make my life
Hell on Earth
The world burns down completely
I lead alone

Never needed anyone or anything.
Always known my internal power

Swallow that pill
Or don’t
Find oneness of humanity

THAT is self-sovereign 💜


What is this free WiFi you speak of?


@ronniegrob @schweizermonat


Remarkable!


Yes. Simply use a more privacy-focused device like graphene, no cell service, run a VPN, and use various free wifi's you find around you.


wtf, for real?


Do you run your own hospital? Or airline as well? What about your own ISP? Your own water system? Sewer system as well?


Yes, while I have no cell phone, I can communicate just fine between my mesh networks with my trusted network (when near by [still have to setup a more privacy-focused MQTT server for true global mesh])
And use public WiFi that is free.

Make sure use a VPN also. Not perfect setup but it works well for me.


pv 🤙

I'd say first have the desire & will power to self-host everything. The internet is a powerful resource to learn how to do most* things I mentioned.

To get started I'd say do a search for what you want to do yourself like, "how do I run a local LLM?", etc. and go from there.


Havent decided whats best for our family yet but a mix of;

- Natural gas well
- (maybe) waste products (like burning trash but ehhh not enough volume & quite dirty)
- compound solar & store energy (basically step-up power via transformers and store in battery+capacitor setup
- some other creative ways but all sourcing from list above

If you have any other ideas please feel free to share.


I'll note more on my various progress on said projects. Thank you for your kind words💜


Wind is fine too but don't wanna see the turbines tbh


Simply use local free WiFi via your VPN(s) and you can communicate as needed.

No need for SMS/cell service.


LOVE IT. Short answer is no, that is on the list to complete over time of course.

- "hospital" setup would be just for local family & close friends. Quite a task IMO but doable and necessary
- airline; soon™ (when can afford own [large] plane with paved runway and hanger)
- ISP; on the list. We can do this via Nostr and mesh/HAM
- Water; yes (forgot to mention that!) Of course Filter most of my water (not for lawn and garden)
- Sewer; no. On the list💪


SUPERMAX  t-y for share/ this is a way!        gr82c!


Tried to zap you


Wow thank you Nostr, I really didn't expect this to get such deep engagement.

I, as all of us, have much more to build to be more sovereign, and I could do things better in many areas.

I'd say my biggest weakness is in sharing & documenting everything I do.
I just DO (look at my weak AF github jeez).

Going forward my biggest focus is sharing all this so you can do this yourself.

Y'all are awesome keep fighting the good fight for Freedom💜

Recommendations for mesh setup? Kind of overwhelmed by all the options


If true - wow.


I am on that path. Do you know some good home solution to run many services like this? What hardware? How to orchestrate? Are you using docker?

Basically it means to build home data-center in a kind.

I already have off-grid solar, own water source. I still need my own filtration and waste handling. The last is kind hard for me as my property is no big an I may not get the permit.

This is the problem of sovereignty: once you start doing hardware (solar, ...) you are visible and easily targetable by oppression (regulation). I have no solution for this, sadly.

Thanks!


Also backup diesel aggregator is on my list. The solar won't help me much in winter if shit hits the fan. But having a diesel storage is hard as you need to refill it basically every 3 months or so as diesel degrades. Not sure if I will be able to cycle it through my car (tank from storage and deplace with new).

Stove and wood for a winter are also something I definitely need to have.


No cap here

Tried to zap you but got this👇

Maybe theres a mistype in your lightning @address?


To get started with simple plug-n-play modules, run a simple meshtastic setup

Get two HeltecV3 boards (ESP32 with LoRa) and have a play. Very easy to setup; many easy to follow along guides on YouTube and various other places online.

(Tried to #zap you as well. Setup a Lightning@Address to receive zaps!)


Onward 🫡


Correct; ypu are now the datacenter and there is a lot that goes into that.
AWESOME to have own solar and water source. I just buy water filters for now, but I would like to make my own (cheaper to buy for now).

As I'm not a sufficient programmer /coder (yet) (I mean look at my weak AF github) I found it best to just run on regular hardware you can buy anywhere
- overpowered mini PC/desktop for being on the cheap
- some things are in containers, but that's how to software was setup when downloaded like running GPT4ALL or JAN. AI

I 110%, once you start to go "big" with true sovereign setups, you become a "target", especially in suburban neighborhoods. Much easier on country roads with 100+ acres, no neighbors


Agreed. This is why I don't want diesel or propane setup; still reliant on distribution of energy source. Plus the cost is far more than just efficiently using local electric/natgas grid

My personal numbers for natgas grid costs per is $0.025/kWh! Need to get that setup ASAP
(This is me, running a General, hooked up to local natgas grid). So still reliant on distribution but much more resilient than on-grid electric.


Sorry, I had it messed up. Zapped you instead 😉

Keep up the good work!


1. Grow sugar (sweet potato is probably the most efficient, but your environment may dictate otherwise)

2. Ferment

3. Distill

4. Burn in a generator for electricity, or for heating/cooking, etc.


This is a brilliant idea thank you

Sugar very energy dense

Glory to GOD


Ok I think I’m too regarded for this as I may be confusing WiFi with “access to data” via an ISP.


Don't overthink it; its just using random free wifis wherever you are at.

To be "safer" on said free WiFi like a library or restaurant, make sure to use a VPN.


Ah yes, that I do! I was thinking of WiFi for daily use at home with all my devices.


Running everything off grid.  Even running graphene OS on the cell.

Would like to get the fellow coiners here on a mesh network. Been thinking about setting up some sort of mesh coms. What have you had success with?


There are much better mesh networks to setup but the simplest to get started with is two meshtastic devices and start having a play.

The HeltecV3 boards (ESP32 with LoRa) is easiest to get started.
The board is like ~$25 from many vendors.
Can connect to MQTT server and get your messages broadcasted on public internet if you want
- I still need to do this. Trying to hone this in for the best privacy-focused setup I can have (MQTT isn't very private since the trade off is pushing data out to clearnet).


What are you using/running llms for?


We’re all going to need a guide to help us on this path 🙏🏽


But are you doing this in a location to survive geomagnetic reversal?


Thanks! Got the boards ordered


Don't forget that none of us are truly sovereign except Yaweh. However,  we are made in His image. We strive.


Wow! Inspiring. 🫡


Onward 🫡


:peepoheart:


ZAP!


Good luck to ya


Tell me more about this free Wifi without cell service...


Thanks Super - we all need a kick in the ass! Time to GSD and keep steadily moving to self-hosting!


All sorts of things. Mainly using as a guide for basic questions, how to prompt better (yoid be surprised how good they are at this), summarizing articles/videos I don't have time to watch, basic coding (moreso for proof of concept stuff).

Reading my own data I feed it works well too.

So many more possibilities


I've been inspired to create one, many now from all the responses💜


I would say I am not best prepared for this.

Need more Faraday cages* for everything, etc.

On the list 💪

*DIY Faraday cage isn't too hard to make either


Let's go!

Tried to #zap you⚡

Setup a Lightning@Address so folks can do so!


Interesting… I appreciate your response… thank you.


Location is more important than Faraday cages. Cages just provide a short term temporary extension of modern conveniences in a post shift world.


Where is best locations then? Bunker? Antarctica? Any worthwhile links to share to learn more?


Ocean bottom bunker?


I've been thinking alot about reaching out to local producers to start a circular economy where I live. Without doxing yourself, about where in the world are you living?


Def do; its prob one of the single best things you can do to be more sovereign, while also bringing more people to sovereignty

I'm east coast USA


south america near the water reserves


anywhere in latin america


West coast here. I'll put progress updated as I get traction.


This is just a starter intro. Everyone has their opinion, but basically underground at elevation away from large bodies of water with the elevation increasing the closer to water you get. It's a rabbit hole. Welcome.

Thank you


Geothermal.
Distillation like Troy mentioned but gather day-old doughnuts, pastries and fruit from stores that would otherwise throw them out.


How about burning used veggie oil in a diesel?  Collect veggie oil from fast food restaurants.

You're still relying on the industrialized supply chain when sourcing that way. It certainly wouldn't hurt to have external sources in addition, but they can be "shut off" compared to growing your own sugars.


Yes but to be still too reliant on outside energy sources.

I've heard (unless you build a good relationship with them) restaurants actually charge you if you ask for their oil for fuel.

Too many variables there imo


Yeah, I wouldn’t build a system that RELIES on it, but if it’s available and you don’t take it, it’s like you hate money.


How have you found the switch to Graphene to be in terms of convenience? I've been considering but sometimes I feel like it would be a pretty drastic shift compared to just using my standard Android OS
