> The Pedal Radio (or Pedal Wireless) was a radio transmitter-receiver powered by a pedal-driven generator. It was developed by Alfred Traeger in 1929 as a way of providing radio communications to remote homesteads in the Australian outback.[6] There were no mains or generator power available at the time and batteries to provide the power required would have been too expensive. It is considered an important Australian invention.[7] https://infogalactic.com/info/Human_power#Pedal-powered_transmitter I'd like to see a low power computer running on one of these, with like some kind of "natural" battery like compressed air or something in case you stop pedaling for a bit...
https://libraryofbabel.info/ From reddit and a comment: "The Library defines a page as 3200 characters, and each book has 410 pages. The algorithm can generate every possible combination of letters on a page, which is 10 to the 4677th power books. Each hex has four walls, five shelves to a wall, and 32 books per shelf."

They're currently working on archiving Reddit which is over 800 TB: http://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Reddit http://wiki.archiveteam.org/ > Archive Team is a loose collective of rogue archivists, programmers, writers and loudmouths dedicated to saving our digital heritage. Since 2009 this variant force of nature has caught wind of shutdowns, shutoffs, mergers, and plain old deletions - and done our best to save the history before it's lost forever. Along the way, we've gotten attention, resistance, press and discussion, but most importantly, we've gotten the message out: IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY. > This website is intended to be an offloading point and information depot for a number of archiving projects, all related to saving websites or data that is in danger of being lost. Besides serving as a hub for team-based pulling down and mirroring of data, this site will provide advice on managing your own data and rescuing it from the brink of destruction. https://infogalactic.com/info/Archive_Team > Archive Team is a group dedicated to preserving digital history that was founded by Jason Scott in 2009. Its primary focus is the copying and preservation of content housed by at-risk services. Some of its projects include the partial preservation of GeoCities,[1][2] Yahoo! Video, Google Video, Splinder, Friendster, FortuneCity,[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] TwitPic[11] and the "Aaron Swartz Memorial JSTOR Liberator".[12] Archive Team also archives URL shortener services[13] and wikis[14] on a regular basis. > According to Jason Scott, "Archive Team was started out of anger and a feeling of powerlessness, this feeling that we were letting companies decide for us what was going to survive and what was going to die."[15] Scott continues, "it's not our job to figure out what's valuable, to figure out what's meaningful. We work by three virtues: rage, paranoia and kleptomania."[16]

Smartphone App I see there's trinus vr as an android (and ios?) free app: google play store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.loxai.trinus.full&hl=en_US&gl=US or alternatively apk download link: https://apkpure.com/trinus-cbvr-lite/com.loxai.trinus.test/download?from=details another possible app: https://apkfun.com/down_VR-VNC-Viewer.6808990.html Computer App Linux then on the computer, these two projects on linux: https://github.com/MyrikLD/LinusTrinus https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xrdesktop/xrdesktop Another (?): https://github.com/letoram/safespaces Windows and trinus has a windows app: https://www.trinusvirtualreality.com/ I've heard people don't like mobile VR - I tried it out before and didn't really have too many problems with it, am surprised more promotion of mobile VR hasn't happened - wanted to try out how a desktop would look, but never figured this out, has anyone gotten something like this working?

Project site: https://www.kiwix.org/en/ Links to content for download (or I guess you're able to within the app?) https://wiki.kiwix.org/wiki/Content_in_all_languages Explanation of labels on files: https://download.kiwix.org/zim/README Overview of content they offer for download: all of wikipedia (without audio or video, 83GB), gutenberg's public domain works (40,000+, 65GB), 167 stackexchange forums, various wikimedia projects (related to wikipedia: wikisource, wikinews, wikivoyage, wikihow, wikiversity, wikiquotes), and some other random forums (ubuntu or appropedia come to mind as listed), and others They also have TED talks and Khan Academy videos, but I don't see why you couldn't just use something like youtube-dl to download specific ones you want (and this reminds me that I guess you could probably freely download and share such videos online with creative commons licenses)

lol run your own trump social network
Found this link on win, basically this was what I was trying to get at - for reading posts fastest I like an RSS feed, so a hybrid RSS reader that allows me to post would probably be my ideal (making a separate post to mention that in [!development](https://wolfballs.com/c/development)

Posting in tech news because it has to do with trumps social media platform. I agree with his assessment of rumble being compromised. It is Canadian based and to well funded. I’ve been more and more red pilled on investors changing the course of America in unnatural ways. See 4 Chan researchers commentary ;  Ordinarily natural market forces would prevent this type of thing but due to the various government bailouts the last 15 years strange things have happened.
