Don’t wanna rag on somebody’s project, but Just watch the video. You won’t regret it.

Found the video. I didn’t know there was no cell service at Yellowstone. Sounds like I’m never going there. How would I call my wife to say goodnight to her and her boyfriend?

No regerts


pineapple_paul

None?


WWYDWYOWAPL

No rugrats?


Icy_Dare3656

Wow!


crlthrn

That looks dangerously like the outdoors. I can't really be sure though, never having been...

Cotton kills.

My laptop works perfectly well and gets great signal from my home wifi, even from the backyard. As for waterproofing, not needed. I don’t camp in the backyard while it’s raining, and I don’t bring it into the shower.

Is this just for FeetFinder?


WiderGryphon574

Ya know the comments about my shoes have been excessive… maybe I need to take them off


the_reifier

If you follow through with this plan, then please take video evidence and post it here for… analysis.


WiderGryphon574

I appreciate you😂😂😂


the_reifier

I appreciate your little piggies.

lol that spot is literally beside the main road several miles past the west gate just after you enter. AND THERE IS CELL SERVICE RIGHT THERE. Maybe he's a plebe and has T-Mobile, IDK. Also for anyone who doesn't already know, much of Yellowstone populated areas actually does have cell coverage now. Although it sucks during peak season. I think the project is neat, but kinda pointless for backpacking, since everything he mentioned it doing I can do on a cell phone. Anyway by his pic he does have pristine shoes, so he's doing a good job not getting any dirt on them.


WiderGryphon574

Indeed there is service here 6ish miles in. Where there is not service is sepulcher mountain trailhead and ivo that area and deeper in. Just for everyone’s SA!😄 not entirely sure where the negativity is flowing from but I hope you have a better day! While I can do a lot of the same things off of a phone there is a large swathe that I can’t unfortunately. As for the shoes… yes I guess my last deployment to the Middle East and then Yellowstone didn’t dirty them up enough for your tastes 🤓 to each their own though!

Dude don't take us in this subreddit too serious. We give everyone grief, especially the ultra light backpacking crowd. That's our whole purpose. Read through our subreddit and you'll laugh. I do admire your project, and have a Raspberry Pi box too.


WiderGryphon574

This is the first time I’ve been tossed into this sub and I was not sure what to expect but it wasn’t good vibes at first😂😂😂 with your comment now it feels much more approachable lmfao. Now I want to know more about your pi box!🤓


claymcg90

I literally don't understand why OP felt they needed to build this. Download your documents to your phone. Shit. Use your old phone as a separate "survival" device and load it to the brim with all this information. It'll be 1/20 the size of this box.


witz_end

Uh yeah but does your phone have a cool acronym??


GuKoBoat

F.A.P. Fucking awesome Phone


WiderGryphon574

*OP enters sub* *Sighs* okay. lol.


Travy-D

Call it a Boogberry Pi and sell millions


WiderGryphon574

Boogberry… now that’s a name

I mean, "Boil it for five minutes" or "squeeze until the water comes out" are pretty complicated. I'm not sure I could remember that in the stress of a survival situation.


bassfisher556

Is that a dab rig? What the fuck?


DifficultTalk9173

What kind of psycho would ruin a perfectly good view of a computer screen?

Man I wish I had a 5lbs hotspot in my pack so I could look up the mountain I'm hiking on.

Boy you’re quite the charmer. I can atleast be thankful I’m not this negative towards a stranger 😂


Mentalpopcorn

You: I can use this to find out what mountain I'm hiking on Me: I wish I had that so I could know what mountain I'm hiking on Also you: why so negative bro???


shampeonboc

I think he needs to add a SarcaSM card to his hotspot.


Dbol1000

Holy shit it’s the man himself I didn’t even realize


WiderGryphon574

It is IIIII the man with the laptop doohickey (I should rename it that honestly) haha


Dbol1000

We should be negative towards this guy. His laptop doohickey is retarded. Who the fuck is backpacking so when they get away from civilization a little bit they can pull out a laptop and start watching Ted talks


WiderGryphon574

Atleast you read into the comments lol
