Setting up my yubikeys for PGP and ssh (FIDO) logins as part of my New Year’s resolution to continue to improve opsec. I think I screwed it up the first time, so going to practice it again tomorrow to make sure I got it.

The #meshtastic T114 solar node CH4D 🌮 is fully deployed in Huangpu District, Shanghai.

I know there is a lot of concern on the #SafeHarbor #IRS #tax regulations coming to the USA for #bitcoin. I personally hope to continue to do specific lot identification, and plan on using CoinTracking.info software to run the ZERO PnL strategy. I’m curious if anyone else is in a similar position? I guess I still need to make a time stamped document to declare my wallets prior to 2025 as using this strategy, and if not allowed, my intentions to use a HIFO (highest cost first out) fallback? I am not an expert but I don’t want FIFO or HIFO if possible. https://cryptotaxgirl.com/blog/safe-harbor-instructions/

My cointracking referral code is https://cointracking.info?ref=B178627 - I highly recommend their software.

The external antenna arrived for my #meshtastic solar node using a Heltec T114. I need to get some marine sealant around the antenna mount, test it out for a few days, then mount it at my friend’s restaurant 2km away in the neighboring district.

Wife thanked me for stacking sats. Bitcoin changes your mindset from constantly racing to keep up to always appreciating your achievements.

Getting ready to build my first solar #meshtastic node using a T114 in Shanghai. Might give it to a friend. The solar panel light enclosures are only 30rmb on pinduoduo.

Being a little #bitcoin toxic is not always a bad thing.

Would be great to have a Bluetooth + Lora #meshtastic network client. Had an idea years back (when I was single) to have a dating app that would use BLE to broadcast a mesh ping to find other single people matching criteria. Could add Lora for those of us who need a little more range to find that right one, and potentially a powerful communication tool if it used Nostr.

My new Lilygo T-Beam Core Supreme is happily servicing #meshtastic to all of downtown Shanghai, China. I like the T-Echo for walking around, but this T-Beam setup is perfect for a router.
