There’s a pretty cool write up by KittenLabs about their SolarCamPi project - it’s pretty involved as far as DIY projects though, even down to stripping features out of the Raspberry Pi so it would use as little power as possible..

Awhile back I dabbled with a timelapse setup where I had a battery, GoPro and a Raspberry Pi with a 4G hat for remote monitoring - using Tailscale as the VPN - but that was never intended to run 24/7. I just set those up and accepted that they’d run for as long as they ran and then collect them.

Lots of 4G/WiFi solar security cameras around as another sort of ‘all in one’ solution - typically the main issue is they all want you to use their app. If you can find one with rtsp or ONVIF it’s easier to make them work with whatever you want, though again you’d probably need a Raspberry Pi or something inbetween in order to create the VPN/Tailscale/WireGuard connection to keep it secure.

I think they’re winding down the project unfortunately, so I might have to get with the times…

It’s a mix, I put two screenshots together. On the left is my monthly bandwidth usage from CPanel on the right is Awstats (though I hid some sections so the Robots/Spiders section was closer to the top).

Ooh… can I print my next smartwatch?

“Your honor, my archive of Linux ISOs were acquired under the pretense that they were ‘publicly available’ and the copyright holders didn’t ‘opt-out’ using the ‘up-for-grabs.txt’ standard I invented.”

Sounds like iDescriptor needs a “happy customers”-style quote section on their GitHub.

Samsung’s keyboard history is sketchy as. Even when you select everything and ‘delete’ it from the history you can STILL PASTE. Like dude. I know some people find keyboard history useful but I don’t want it, just a huge security risk.

I would like to do this but I’d really want to be able to bypass the battery. Being an older phone, I don’t think it has the feature where it cleverly stops charging the battery and I wouldn’t want to leave it plugged in all the time.
