  • There are a bunch of options to do this.

    If you use the networking stack (tcp or http or zmq or something ) you can run the gui on a different machine.

    Unix sockets are a good option for running on the same machine.

    Have you considered having node serve the static web page? Then you can serve the data over http with the same server.




  • Maybe write up some instructions for volunteer operators to provide various components of an IP network. Some could provide user access points, some could provide long distance links, some can provide routing, and some can provide name resolution. No new tech is required, but it will be expensive.

    All of this is already set up to work with low trust in the network itself on the Internet, so it’s definitely possible. There may even be good options for leasing long distance data lines that are currently unused.

    Definitely check out Helium and MeshTastic. Neither are high speed data network s but similar in spirit.


  • Note retroswap supports physical cash transactions. I’ve never used it but It looks like you’ll need some Monero as a security deposit, and of course there’s is random chance involved in finding a willing seller to accept the gift card. If you pay with the card, remember whoever originally bought it is theoretically traceable by visa.

    There are also many sites that will buy gift cards, at a loss. You may be able to use one of them to turn it into fiat.

    Also a pawn shop may give you cash for a gift card, idk.
