    I, uhh, already have a decent amount of experience with arduinos, and with using them on a network.

    I'm also slacking on a bunch of projects too lol, it's easy to start them but I can never seem to find myself finishing them.

    That sounds fantastic, but unfortunately I doubt it'll ever happen.

    Maybe if there's abandoned towns somewhere in the midwest with semi-recent infrastructure, but water, food, and electricity would be the first things lost when the climate starts to really accelerate.

    As a disgruntled sysadmin, I have a few ideas about things that could be implemented to improve the lives and stability of people living there. Unfortunately, I know jack shit about permaculture and farming, so I'm going to have to do a lot of learning about that.

    I mean, it's not that I don't want to help change the existing community. The problem is that by the time revolution might be possible in the US, a majority of the country will have died from climate change, and the US will have no problem using its massive military machine against its own people if it means the ruling class gets to hold onto power.

    Besides, if we are able to set something up where we could archive theory and provide resources for people struggling for housing, it could be really beneficial.

    What's the best way to work towards starting a community with people somewhere remote? Things are accelerating at a rapid pace, and I eventually want to move to bumfuck nowhere with a bunch of trusted comrades and work to build a self-sufficient community. However, how do you bring this up without sounding like an absolute nutjob?

    As leftists, we understand that strength comes from community, and I really don't want to go the libertarian "just stock up guns and ammo yourself" route. Going somewhere and building a community that's self sustaining with other leftists is something I think would be really beneficial, especially as we're cascading towards the climate end times.

    I'll probably eventually ask this in /c/askchapo or a climate community when we get one, but I wanted to get some initial ideas first.
