<soundnfury>
... then what does NVMeoF stand for?
<AASRaptor>
NVMeoF?
<AASRaptor>
Qboid has (not) spoken.
<soundnfury>
so the direct version would be Never Mind Express Over Fabrics, but I'm sure we can come up with something funnier than that
<AASRaptor>
NVM-EOF: when opening that file was a mistake.
<APlayer>
bofh: IIRC you gave me the sci-hub IP adress a while ago? Still remember it?
<Qboid>
APlayer: Ellied left a message for you in Private [10.01.2018 23:43:19]: "if you're looking for a relatively simple radio transceiver system, you might try nRF24L01+ modules. They have libraries written for them for Arduino and Python that shouldn't take an unreasonable amount of work to understand how to use."
<Qboid>
APlayer: Ellied left a message for you in #kspacademia [10.01.2018 23:45:37]: "nRF24L01+ modules can be found with integrated amplifiers and high-gain antennas that will reach a pretty respectable distance, very likely more than your given 50 meters (ostensibly up to a kilometer, but I don't know how much to believe that)."
<Qboid>
APlayer: Ellied left a message for you in #kspacademia [10.01.2018 23:47:53]: "if you're looking for something easier to program, though, you might consider high-power WLAN adapters and ad-hoc networking. You can find plenty of information about how to set that up online, and use a simple socket interface in your programming language of choice to communicate over the connection."
<APlayer>
Ellied: How high power are high-power WLAN adapters? Because I am planning to run this thing on batteries
<APlayer>
Also, I only need one-way communication
<APlayer>
That is, sure, two way communication would enable a bunch of little goodies to implement, but that's more or less optional
<Ellied>
APlayer: usually hundreds of milliwatts, and I would seriously consider implementing some kind of two-way communication in case you want it later
<Ellied>
one-way communication probably won't save you much complexity in building it
<APlayer>
Saves mass and power, at least
<APlayer>
I need to fit approximately ten boards into the drone, and will need to figure out where and how to fit them, how to power them, and keep the mass low to save on motor power
<APlayer>
Also, while I can implement a lot of things, not sure how many of them may be performed simultaneously, because the RPi I will be using only has one single 1 GHz core
<APlayer>
Probably more than enough, but still not sure
<APlayer>
Anyway, let me research high-power WLAN communication. What range do you have in mind for those?
<xShadowx>
what is the worlds oldest profession?
<APlayer>
Priest. I am sure.
<xShadowx>
nah thats just propaganda
<xShadowx>
cant be
<APlayer>
They've been around forever in whatever form you like
<xShadowx>
but so have hunters, to get food, to live, to be a priest
<APlayer>
But that's not really a profession initially
<APlayer>
Everyone did it to gather food for themselves, not for other people (at first, that is)
<xShadowx>
so if you require 'trade' or 'supplying otherrs' then prolly prostitution is the oldest, as incapable of hunting, traded goodies for that bit of fish / meat for dinne
<bofh>
APlayer: sci-hub.hk not work for you?
<APlayer>
bofh: It does, I just had memorized the IP before the holidays and want to remember it for a domain-independent way of accessing the site
<APlayer>
Because the domains keep changing
<APlayer>
It's 80.82.76.84, isn't it?
<APlayer>
No, it's not
<APlayer>
80.82.77.84*
<APlayer>
(It is)

!tell APlayer I added a special entry in my hosts file for sci-hub.org so it redirects to that IP; you might try something similar
<Qboid>
Ellied: I'll redirect this as soon as they are around.
