We need to bring back BBS's over short range radio transmitters.
The early dialup and BBS world was magic and it pulls everything completely off of the standard channels.

- dd8601fn 5mo agoI was JUST working on this based on the solarpunk forum article that was on Hackaday, yesterday. I was trying to do Enigma with a captive portal wifi setup and a (heavily stylized) terminal in a browser. Figured a pi zero w2 might do the job on solar. The idea was occasional fidonet pickup, some door games, and probably disabled file base. I could seed a few on friends and family porches in the neighborhood, and just see if anyone uses them. It (enigma) was proving to be a real pain though, and I decided to shelve it for a bit.
