Experimenting With An Internet Server. Looking For Volunteers by mayorj(m): 3:30am On Mar 30, 2020 |
Hi... I am a Country Manager at a startup where our aim is to use technology to empower the underprivileged and bring them internet. As a result, a farmer would have better access to weather reports and their children would have access to study materials, all of it for free. We have developed a product to help provide internet/internet like services, in countries like India and Nigeria, using Raspberry Pi. The OS will be ready in almost a week for testing. If you own a Raspberry Pi and would like to be a part of the experiment to see if our OS works fine, provide us feedback on how to improve and hence, help us in our endeavor. The engineers would be able to share further details on this front, should you plan to opt-in and be a part of this test. You can DM me in case you wish to try this out and I will put you in touch with our hardware and software engineers while giving more details about the project. I hope I am posting in the right section. If not, request the admins to direct this post to the right section. P.S. We may be open to giving away a small freebie to 5 people who choose to volunteer, after the experiment and contribution. Since it is a startup with very very limited resources as of now, not sure how much or what would we be giving, but we can promise something. Look at this as an impact project, if you plan to contribute by being a part of it. |

For spam purposes I may not be able to share you my email. However use the mail system of this platform. I will definitely reply. Once I confirm that interested persons are genuine and serious, I will communicate via my official mail. We don't want to pronounce the name of the project too much yet. There are more to it. The device will have its own crypto so that users can be able to mine crypto, but we are at the development stage. We hope to get to success of those features. Thank you for your interest. |

For those who own a Raspberry Pi and have interest, the link to the Os is: os.toki.com You can download the Os and run it. Please leave a review on the page after testing. |

Not much info on the site, would like to know more please |
Re: Experimenting With An Internet Server. Looking For Volunteers by mayorj(m): 3:39pm On May 31, 2020 |
Leopantro: The site explains the basic thing there. If you have a Rapsberry Pi, download the OS, flash your SD card and copy the OS on it, I recommend using balenaEtcher for that. Insert the SD card back into you Pi, boot up your Pi, connect to its WiFi (tokinet), and browse archived sites on the network. |
