What kind of laptop do you have? My iPhone can airdrop straight to my laptop, but the open source version of that tech is fairly young still: https://github.com/seemoo-lab/opendrop

I really liked when laptops had infra-red ports. I think free space optics count as RF, yes?

I don’t know that much about sudoroom yet (I am new here, and sort of new to Oakland) but perhaps see you around!

The way the Internet is being used today, frustrates me. I don’t think I should need a cloud service for my photos to automatically sync from my phone to my laptop when they both have multiple radios and they’re inches apart for most of the day. I don’t know why we all have to get individual wired Internet access and then set up our own wireless networks in the same limited RF spectrum. I don’t like that sometimes it feels like I can hardly communicate with another human being without seeing sponsored content. I don’t like that no matter how many cookies I block, companies can track me by my IP address.

I write software/firmware and one of my hobbies is software defined radio. How can I help?
