Thanks for popping in. This is a really cool project.

I saw this for the first time at the Texas Theatre here in Dallas. About a third of the audience were laughing, a third sat in puzzled silence, and a third got up and left before the halfway point.

If you can get away with a non North American number, most countries will give you a SIM for free or next to nothing and you pay only once for pre-paid service, no monthly fee.

Looks like it could power anything that needs 5v, as long as you have the panel energy. A built-in regulator for 3.3v would make this an insta-buy for me.

I believe they did long ago.

I don't think I would ever be in favor of activity that leads to further centralization. I don't disagree that fragmentation can make things somewhat confusing for new users, but there are some advantages as well. I like to post to smaller communities for the most part rather than the larger ml and world domains. The responses are more focused on the topic at hand, the communities are usually less hostile and hive-minded, and having all discussions on a just a few big servers leads to a the problem of having all of your eggs in one basket (ie. discussions and accounts disappearing when these servers can't maintain server costs, the admins move on to other projects, or just poor maintenance practices.) To me it is worth the effort to cross-post and seek out other communities to find interesting content.

Have you gotten it yet? If so, what do you think?

I'm not sure. With official cooling and PSU it's about $100 before taxes and shipping. I know the n100 mini PCs are cheaper than $187 as well. Could just be their particular country/region and setup.

I guess I don't understand what is supposed to be serving the webapp to your client (browser) then without something like nginx or apache. I run searxng as well but I wouldn't be able to access it, even on localhost, without a web server.
