@kelbot @ajroach42 Yeah, if I was manufacturing stuff at scale I'd definitely go that route, but not for prototyping/hobby projects. I got a 3-pack of the NodeMCU off Amazon for about $16 USD, it's certainly worth the extra for the ease of working with them.

I've started doing some hardware hacking as part of my new job, I'm amazed at what is available these days. This NodeMCU costs about $5, has built in WiFi, is programmable through the Arduino IDE and can be powered by a small solar panel. I'm blown away.

@AceNovo Oh, a virtual deck-building game that uses blockchain to verify card ownership, that's a unique and interesting idea!

Great to see the GNOME 3.30 release party in Brno using GetTogether.Community! https://gettogether.community/events/163/gnome-330-release-party-in-brno/ #gettogether

Hey world! I just supported Fosstodon on @Patreon. Help your instance with hosting costs by becoming a patron too. https://t.co/lYfLVoTqUx

@fleischie28 @codesections With tracking you have multiple changes of ownership and all parties want to be able to track that in a way that doesn't make any one of them an authoritative source.

@fleischie28 @codesections yeah, that's not the kind of thing that sounds like it needs to be distributed

@codesections Use for tracking physical things as they change hands and get transported around is certainly a compelling use for Blockchain, thanks!

I have absolutely no interest in #bitcoin or #cryptocurrency as a value store or tulip replacement.

Tell me something cool you're doing, or have seen someone doing, with #blockchain that isn't just buying and selling real currencies.

@Wimpress Is that the game where you take turns drawing a small part? My daughter loves that game

@pla I know it's weird on account of being a webkit container that's not actualy a browser, but I haven't noticed anything weird with domain names.

@Megaf Yup, the ... button at the bottom of my post will let you block me.

But it won't make me wrong ;)

@Megaf if you aren't financially able to donate, that's fine. But if you are, and Fosstodon is something that makes you happy, then pitch in a dollar or two to keep the lights on for everyone. That's what I'm doing.

But if you can't, again that's okay, I'm paying for you too.

@Megaf You can help keep this instance up and running:

@SimonW Yeah, Rambox's custom service option is nice, I was able to add Mastodon before upstream did :)
