Sorry testing something out so I can easily post on multiple platforms at once

The SymMoDe (sympathetic mobile device*) prototype is going good, I can operate and hold it with my hands so it's officially a handheld!

(Cross post from Tumblr) Okay SAPs* officially work now so we've got the foundations for an application system for PierMesh. Gonna do a bit more tinkering and cleanup, should be done by the end of the week like I mentioned.

(Cross post from Tumblr) Good news, I've had a small breakthrough, while figuring out how to distribute the threading code I realized we can easily package dependencies, code and arbitrary files using almost the same methods.

Working through setting up the git submodules stuff I talked about, realized I want to do more documentation so this will likely take a couple days but should be well worth it

This got delayed, had some issues with my dev server but its been fixed
Updates: threading system is almost done, today I'll be organizing it and other parts of PierMesh into git submodules to make it more modular

One of my longer shot ideas is a network for a whole multi hundred km area (such as a town) that comes preconfigured in a box of a couple dozen nodes. These would come with ~128 gb of storage each to enable simple p2p applications and public library functionality.

Part of what PierMesh as a project is offering are portable, themeable web tools. The site builder will be easily usable elsewhere but even right now PierMesh work has fed back into a free pixel art tool:

hi folks, we've received word that Archive Team has finished their archival of cohost. we will be shutting down the servers and deleting all data sometime tomorrow, January 12. shortly after, cohost.org will begin redirecting to the wayback machine.

thank you, as always, for having used cohost.

Oh and anybody who would like to contribute: our codebase is largely Python, vanilla HTML/HTMX/JS/CSS and C++ (for firmware) so experience in any of those is helpful
Hi new followers, I haven't been super active on this account but I plan to be more active. Currently working on a site builder for PierMesh along with WebRTC signalling and potentially speeding up communications at shorter ranges with Halow (~2 km/1mbps compared to up to 331 km/1kbps with LoRa)

after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"

Have been doing heavy Pyodide work, was going to do a full os but looks like for now it'll just be multiprocessing for browsers for the time being so I can get to more important work including a site builder for PierMesh

Building a Pyodide based website creator for PierMesh. I'm leveraging static site generation techniques so this is showing that the code for that has been loaded and extracted in the browser js console

Got my first solar powered tech up and running, this is a RAK 4361 with a unify solar enclosure. Had to cut and splice the cables because the polarity was wrong on the battery but it works! Ran it for about 3 hours just fine

Encountered some issues that are mostly resolved. I think I have a way to improve consistency a lot, just retrying the information probing request, I'll implement this soon
I've made a few updates to y232.live. Made a few more of the requests proxied, added a second backend for yt videos and implemented proper threading. It's faster but we'll see how the stability pans out

The pixel widget has been updated! I've made a few visual updates, erase and undo now work, and behind the scenes this page is automatically generated each time I build PierMesh's web interface pixel.utopic.work

Going to dive into on board graphics a bit for the PierMesh firmware, I'd like the output to be a bit more useful for our use case and potentially the UI if I can get some input hardware wired right
