This project is less than 2 days old, so we need all the expertise and help we can get. Every contribution is valuable! Gather a group of friends and join the irc and wiki.
To do: - decide on standards for software and hardware - create resources for newbies - gather more people - start building something in the Houston & Austin area
>no outernet Dude, that name was hot since the second thread.
Robert Parker
Apparently it already exists and is trademarked. Believe me, it's my favorite suggestion as well.
Lincoln Rivera
or add the certificate it to your certificate database
Noah Torres
We have a working forum here.
Oliver Price
Shit, then is going to be undernet or alternet, mark my words.
Austin Cruz
Alternet would be alright.
Jose Barnes
Alternet is my fav, sounds like a play out words of "alternate," and brings to mind radio connections of alternating waves.
Sebastian Smith
I still like OtherNet best, but I'd definitely take AlterNet as a second.
Jaxon Ortiz
Let's do it.
Isaac Powell
>name the project alternet >use netrunner as favorite web browser with moonman as mascot >get instant publicity for obvious jokes I won't say I don't like the idea, but I totally see where this is going.
Gabriel Parker
Okay. We spent six hours picking our team name, we have fifteen minutes left to complete our project, guys!
>I remember this from gradeschool.
Alexander Adams
Web-browser? If users aren't picking their own OS and apps, this shit aint gonna fly.
Asher Roberts
Is just a joke.
Camden Evans
It's cause they have good /gd/ level guys working on the logos. I can make our logos good too, I'll work on it.
Joseph Kelly
Can someone migrate all the relevant shit thats in the pastebin and add it to the wiki?
Is there a single programmer + network-competent person in this thread. I can contribute on that front, but I feel like it's just a bunch of underage b&s itt. >obsessing about name You can change it later. Sup Forumsternet is fine.
Ryan Morris
>programmer What for? Is just matter of installing stuff. Maybe we do need help to build antennas and shit, but guess what, we are on Sup Forums and there is a board for this
Anthony Peterson
Gotenna meshnet?
Cooper Cruz
If I had more time in my life I'd jump right in bros. My ridiculous idea was to use these cheap laser pointers, cheap photodetectors hooked up to rpi or arduino to send "signal" from one window to another.
Joshua Brooks
>build antennas A lot of netgear routers (DD-WRT capable) has removable antennae, you just need to screw on something with a higher range, and maybe increase the power to them a couple points (don't go too high, or it'll fuck up the signal).
Jaxon Green
What about making a sister thread on /diy/?
Logan Lopez
Let's not until there's something more specific that we need. Or unless we just want to see how many of them want to get on board with setting up large networks.
Hunter Smith
Sorry. dont think laser pointers are gonna work. Even if you have little time you could check back with us in a couple of weeks when we have an easy method for setting up a node and see what you can help with. If you live in the right areas that is.
Christopher Thomas
I'll check back for sure, but I live in Poland so that probably doesn't help.
Luke Cooper
>Or unless we just want to see how many of them want to get on board with setting up large networks. We have more than one option, let them work it out a couple ideas we can learn.
Jayden Taylor
Where's IRC at right now? (No, I don't want to join, I just want an update).
Portland seems like a great place to try and get large groups of people together and get a shared network set up. The whole "be a unique and original community" thing should play right into what we're trying to accomplish. And if it works in Portland, other major areas would be likely to adopt it.
Find two different ways of solving the same problem? I like how you think user.
Daniel Lopez
fleshing out the wiki and discussing protocols
Ethan Lewis
I'd get Spokane up and running, but folks here don't like new things; I heard someone talking about the '74 worlds fair like it was yesterday last week.
Josiah Stewart
bump
Aaron Smith
>No logo >No Mascot Why even bother?
Evan Myers
goddamnit why do we need 10000000 separate "rebuild the internet" campaigns. Ironically we need one central effort for a true decentralized internet to ever catch on. Not a company, but a central open source project. We can't have millions of them or we're going to have zero compatibility.
Hunter Johnson
Who's the other pin in Vancouver?
Jack Scott
What's happening now is a race of who can build it the best. But it this will never stop, look at GNU/Linux and the amount of distrobutions. Everyone is going to have their own ideas of how it should be done, and some might not agree, thus making new projects.
As much as it would benefit us all to just focus on one platform, it helps to flesh out the system when we have multiple people working on totally different ideas
Carter Turner
You mean that there's others? Tell those fuckers to knock it off.
Alexander Rodriguez
Important question How do we keep the black people off?
Connor Evans
...
Dylan Wilson
I highly doubt that there'll be any white women there, it shouldn't be an issue.
Henry Myers
Already in here.
Jason Martinez
>Already in here. kys nigger
Hudson Edwards
By being a niggerfaggot.
Julian Harris

Carter Flores
Missed the first thread, why the Austin and Houston area?
Nathaniel Ross
How will we censor ungood-speech in Sup Forumsternet?
Christian Wright
to answer that question we must answer
Nicholas Robinson
Mexicans attempting to escape ICE.

>Sharing your internet with anons. Yeah not doing that FBI.
Ian Ross
>ungood-speech What?
James Robinson
>Sharing your internet with the government Yeah not doing that NASA
Ethan Gonzalez
please we need funding to pay our diversity officers
Owen Watson
nigger
Evan Jones
the wired / outernet libbie
Juan Stewart
Those two things don't really go together
Luke Davis
How about this logo based on the wired's for starters?
Daniel Gray
I just can't get out of my head it looks just like the starman from mother 2/earthbound
Leo Davis
I second this
Ryder Jackson
you should start making meshnets with other anons in your city, that would be way easier. t. knower
Jack Wood
How do I contribute?
Eli Cooper
...
Henry Gray
wouldnt u like to know
Brayden Stewart
i give the idea, do the rest, while we shitposting on irc.
