Yes. That ^^^ I rarely talk on mine, and the folks who are really into it aren't generally the type i'd want to hang with, but i want to be of service to my community in an emergency, and i want to be able to communicate with othe

I upgraded to the Kenwood TH-D74 from the Baofeng for the simple reason that i wanted the ability to actually specify a frequency that i hadn't pre-programmed when out in the field. Doing that on a baofeng is nigh-impossible. the APRS,

there's a difference between getting people to say _right now i need you all to "buy me a coffee"_ and getting the same people to buy you a coffee on a repeated basis. I need help now != support my ongoing work on x my point

I entered "fancy pants" the initial block was all decent stuff you'd expect, and the response was quick. Yay. The "Check some carefully handpicked domains for you" section included Dogban.com, Guppyra.com, Cruzani

starting a business with your finances managed by a company that can, and will, close accounts, and freeze funds for no reason at all is crazy. Especially when they frequently do it when someone suddenly starts making decent money, somethin

you have an MVP that sounds like you've actually honored the "M" part (as many fail to). You find it useful already. Do you honestly think you won't be able to get $500 worth of customers? If you really think that, then

I appreciate the explanation, but you misunderstand me. I get "serverless". I totally get lambda and some of the other open source clones of it. What i don't get about "Whisk" is if this is something that builds on

by masukomi 9y ago
yeah that was my take too. I have zero clue what's involved with the hosting of this and as it's an open source serverless product that's the most important bit. How easy or hard it is to use is irrelevant if i don't kno

Can someone explain to me WHERE the servers exist for this "serverless" platform? Is this code i run on lamda and lamda competitors? Is apache hosting it? Do i have to set up my own servers to run the code? All the intro docs and

what value is "safe" if your choices are all extremely limited in what they can do? And if you think you can't get malware past apple screening you're not thinking creatively enough.

yeah, free posts is ok, but with many newsletter topics they can quickly become dated and irrelevant and authors are unlikely to go back and regularly update them if they're also regularly writing a newsletter. overall i really like th

is there any way to tell it to use your cloud service instead of theirs ? In other words, what good is a custom reimplementation of it if you can't make it point at them without dns hacking?

Brett's a R&D guy. R&D guys don't ship consumer products. They find the future paths and test if they're viable. Developing and maintaining a consumer product is a completely different skillset and one that would grea

it would make you stress more about getting your things done before it deletes them and you loose the record of what you were responsible for doing. because more stress in my day job is exactly what i want. ... SO not.

Browser based access is absolutely possible. Not only that it exists. It has 2 forms: If you want a read-only version of the network there are a couple servers that do that. It's useful for showing people who aren't on ssb interes

cool. I see you've added it to the wiki. You should probably mention it with the #scuttlebutt tag as well as just saying hello in #new-people :)

there's also hosting of node modules over ssb :)

If you follow the instructions in the Getting Started Guide [1] it will not be "an empty town". That would be a pretty crappy getting-started experience. Just connect to a pub and you'll find tons of content. I would also rec

by masukomi 9y ago
owning your own pub is cool, but most of us don't bother because you really don't need one to use the system. Well, you don't need _your own_. There's active work going on to improve the support for private groups. if yo

I wouldn't say it's "like federation" at all. In no scenario do you have an entire group of people who suddenly loose their accounts and connections if the owner of the "server" they connect to decides to stop

i would actually recommend ssb-pub [1] over ssb-easy-pub. ssb-pub is private and has no ui. You generate invite codes on the command line. ssb-easy-pub does provide a web UI so that people can request invite codes easily BUT the codebase i
