@oliv @lupyuen I for one am super excited for a ton of surplus lora hardware to hit ebay

@lupyuen I was initially amused by the signs on the MRT. Then I ran into a street vendor selling durians and I understood.

Also, signs in the hotel elevator that say "Do not spit".

"The box is a Helium hot spot. It transmits a long-range Wi-Fi signal" c'mon Wired you know better than that...
But this is a good example of why Helium might fall, people just see "crypto" or "passive income" without really understanding what it is used for. Surprise, when crypto trading hype stops someone has to pay for this, and it will be device users, but it will take time.

I hope that those clickbait titles will not kill Helium by misleading people 😒

@lupyuen I currently feel good with Alacritty and tmux. The annoying thing is nested copy in tmux with mouse.
