Thanks, I've updated the post to use webp images, which did help a ton.

Thanks. I had several ideas for these bulbs as well. This is the one I decided to act on for now. I might work on some of the others later but I'm not sure. I agree there are so many potential uses for this sort of thing and I love how they just sort of exist without drawing attention or suspicion.

That's exactly what this project attempts to do. It acts as a captive portal.

You'd think this would be obvious.

That's exactly what this project is. You can buy the same tasmota bulb I used and flash it over the wifi. No disassembly required.

These are just examples I could legally include in a public github repository to demonstrate the functionality. The alternative would be to include copyrighted works or nothing. The user is free to include any books that are important to them.

I chose these books as examples precisely because they are out of copyright and available on project Gutenberg. They also had been banned or challenged on the USA in the past. Project Gutenberg has a list of "banned books" on their own website and these are all included.

I chose books that were out of copyright, available from project Gutenberg, and had been banned or challenged in the USA at some point in the past to use as examples. There weren't many options.

It wouldn't be wise to include copyrighted works in a public repository where I live.

I have to second corridor crew. I found then several years ago and now I never miss a video. Gave me new appreciation for film making and vfx.

I've been using kagi the last 1.5 years after seeing it recommended here. It's been fantastic for me. I use it on all my devices and never use Google or DDG any more. It feels like old Google with more features. Unfortunately it's not free but they just today announced unlimited search for $10/month which for me is quite reasonable. I sometimes hit over 1000 searches per month (1532 is my record so far). Although it costs money I like knowing that kagi is the product, not me or my data m
