Thanks!
Getting into Linux and self hosting has been great. I'm not a power user, but I do run Linux on all my personal machines and run a small Plex server. I'm looking into starting to play around with Home Assistant and Nextcloud, but first I have to find the time...it might be a while.

I always wanted to. I was very into shortwave as a kid. I finally bit the bullet about 15 years ago. Got into handhelds and had fun for a while. Then I stopped. I am intrigued about radio bitcoin transactions!

LOL, I have a cheap shortwave here on my desk with a wire running up the wall. I'm the same way, I've been interested in radio since I was little, my start was CB, and once I grew up and could afford to get serious life got in the way. I'm hoping things will calm down by the end of the year, I actually got my GMRS to motivate me to get my Ham. I've actually thought about a radio based BTC network also, it would be a massive challenge but it would be cool.

Very interesting. Downloading from satellite is very cool, and transmitting via HAM would be cool if not for the latency issues. I like the GoTenna mesh network idea, though I'd prefer something like LoRa so one company can't control the ecosystem.
