Right now there are a lot of new eyes on Signal, and not all of them are familiar with secure messaging and its nuances. Which means there’s misinfo flying around that might drive people away from Signal and private communications. 1/

Excited for Yuki to have a shot in the second RBR seat.

Concerned that the car will ruin his career and that folks keep forgetting Max is an alien in ANY car. #redbullracing #formula1

Be careful on the roads today, Minnesota ❄️

Slow down, give the snowplows room to work, and check 511mn.org for the latest road conditions.

Anybody have good luck with finding a heltec v3 case to fit a makerfocus 3000mah battery? All I’m finding are too narrow. I’m testing a print now expanding the width by 6% on one case, but wanting to see if the Meshtastic community has had success!

Just getting a few Meshtastic nodes setup tonight for some testing. Really excited about this tech!
