  • A lot of people seem to use apps, one called ‘Remote System Monitor’ looks good, and then connect a charging cable to the pc to keep it charged.

    Personally I’d love if there is a way to do this not involving phone apps, but instead reducing the old phones capabilities to just a screen and having the pc recognise and use it as one. That could lead to some interesting possibilities.



  • Here’s a few! :)

    • Making it a dedicated E-reader
    • Portable entertainment device (movies/TV etc)
    • a pc stats monitor (screen for CPU temps etc)
    • emulation device
    • digital photo frame gallery
    • if you also have a really old phone laying around (talking the ones before touchscreens with the number pad) they would make a great mp3 player

    It’s generally recommended that you put a lighter weight OS onto the phone. Many are available depending on what you want to do and work much better on older devices than android (which updates tend to get heavy and demand more power which unfortunately slows old devices).

    I’m planning to do this for a couple old devices and then repurpose them with other uses





  • Have you managed to see a glimpse of what they might be since that night? I’m wondering if it could be spiritual in nature. Maybe even spirits of those that have been lost to the storms, forming together to form this blob like creature, controlled by the storm to bring more victims.

    I hope you have gained safety, I’m not sure what suggest about where to be, but it may be advisable to be around others next time you know a storm is going to hit. Safety in numbers they say


  • Hi, I’m new and I really love the idea of this instance :) this feels like a very calm place to be! I only have one suggestion at the moment and that would be for a community based around the old game Bamzooki. I’m not sure how much people know of it, but I have many fond memories of it growing up and I’ve never come across a space dedicated to it, would be awesome to see!
