Probably a good idea to go see how much storage will be necessary... (slrpnk.net)

Does lemmy have any communities dedicated to archiving/hoarding data?

I would love to have a small Wikipedia browser that can survive the apocalypse.

I've got the full 120 GB Wikipedia dump running in Kiwix on a Raspberry Pi Zero. Works great (surprisingly)

E-ink display, mini keyboard

Have been using a Minimal Phone for a few months now which has both of those. Can connect to the Pi easily.

multiple ways/ports to transfer info,

Add a USB-C hub (or add a hub to the Pi) and you're set

All wrapped up in a heavy duty equipment case that's able to survive a building collapses and burns in an earthquake, that's shielded from EMP.

And that's where I'm limited - My 3D printer can only do so much lol. πŸ˜†

I've been working on a side project this week with a Orange Pi Zero 2W (Pi Zero "clone" but with better specs). It's got the Kiwix+Wikipedia like my older Pi (described above) plus a bunch of other neat stuff. It's kind of a combination travel router, portable web app server, party box, and extremely over-engineered bluetooth speaker all-in-one. Hoping to put together a show-and-tell post about it when I get the last of it squared away.

    Very interested in your setup for that opi2w. I have one that is being retired from pihole duty that I'll be doing similar to. Also want to add an sdr to it so it can pull ghostnet js8call and the like.

    Ooh, I haven't tried RTL-SDR on it yet, but I think I'm nearing capacity on what it can do at once lol.

    Here's the block diagram for it (in spoiler below). Everything's up and running except the Bluetooth Receiver -> Snapcast (it works on the bench but I don't have the scripting/automation done yet). I'm also adding an SMA connector for an external antenna, but the new base part is still printing. Photo shows it "as is" of this writing.

    SSL for the web apps was a PITA since I wanted real certs. Had to make a wildcard domain under my main hobby domain, so all my apps are like "https://{APP_NAME}.mobile.mydomain.xyz/"

    As soon as I can get the Bluetooth + Pulseaudio scripting done, I'm gonna try to do a write up and maybe a show/tell post.
