They mention their equipment is legacy and only supports Windows 10. An Airgapped VM of Windows 10 is a good option to continue supporting legacy hardware.

Not sure if you're using a desktop or laptop (unclear if you're doing DJ stuff for mixing privately or gigging on the road), but hardware passthrough through something like SR-IOV would make latency a non-issue.

However, I get what you're saying. I was more thinking of the "I want to run this on a legacy operating system for as long as I can" aspect of things. Eliminating the concern of the hardware no longer supporting a more modern operating system was what I was trying to get at. Sorry if that didn't come through.

Somehow Palp.....I mean Pope returned.

So....

1. Not a Thorium reactor

2. Didn't produce any power

So China still has a win here.

I appreciate it, but I just got a new phone because I needed a new one recently. I wish it could have been something like a Fairphone, but thems the breaks.

Unfortunately Telecomms in Australia seem to have a pissing contest on who can screw consumers more, America or Aussie companies.

For 4G. 5G is fine.

Really wish Fairphone would come to the US. I'd spend the money on it, but they only half-ass sold the last gen phone here on the US.

I don't even understand why. They support most 4G and every mid and low band 5G in America. Even if I could just import it, I'd be happy.

If you get with one of your local Meshtastic groups, there will likely already be a bunch of people who use it. I joined a local group in San Antonio, TX and there are around 205 nodes run by a few dozen people throughout the city.

Obviously rural areas are going to be less people, but you'd be surprised how many people run it already.

It's pretty useful for off-grid comms. It's also pretty cheap to get started. I got two Heltec V3 devices that include the little antennas with them for $37 total.

This has been me with Meshtastic. JFC I'm all in on it. Already have something like 9 nodes built and have been asking if I can place nodes in various places around my town to build out the mesh.
