On Saturday, 5/11 and Saturday, 5/18 from 1–4 p.m. we're running a workshop on hosting a website at home! You'll learn to set up an Apache web server on a single-board computer, then you'll configure Dynamic DNS so your site stays online when your IP address changes. We'll have complete kits for sale, or you can bring your own SBC with Ubuntu installed. Registration is required for this one!

@iffybooks cool workshop! I’m curious, is this workshop teaching people how to host a website locally and only available to your home network, or one accessible to the internet?

@iffybooks Are you familiar with dn42 (model BGP network running over the "real" Internet)? It sounds like something that would be right up your alley, not sure if it can be combined :D

We're looking for help to build a wireless, solar-powered chat network across the Philly area! Are you interested in learning about off-grid solar power? Do you have a sunny place on your roof, in your yard, or near an upstairs window where you can leave a small radio transceiver? This workshop may be for you!

Each participant will receive a free kit with all the parts needed to build a solar-powered LoRa radio node. You'll assemble the kit, mount it in a weatherproof enclosure (provided by you), and use the Meshtastic app to start sending encrypted text messages.

Registration opens Monday, April 3rd at 8:30 p.m. You can sign up on our site:

Supplies for this workshop are provided by a grant from the Engaged Humanities Studio at Swarthmore College. Many thanks to @pixouls for helping plan the event!

Cranking this dynamo for 5 minutes provides enough power to keep a LoRa32 device running for an hour. Pretty cool!
