Can anyone recommend good book for survival, but also "city survival"? Radio transmiters-recievers that can send messages acros 250-1000km battery powered etc. What type of clothes,foods to have,carry?

There's this thread, which may answer a lot of your questions:

Thread 'Mitigating Chaos and Building Lifelines to our Future'

Mar 6, 2023

To me, one of the most profound statements put forth here in recent memory is this:

"A: It is not that those who endure to the end will be saved, but that those who endure to the end shall save others. It is your choice to be among those who choose to be a part of the vanguard of the new reality!!!"

If anyone’s missed it, a great thread’s already been started about this one idea that is filled with valuable insights about what this statement means and holds for us:

“those who endure to the end shall save others”

So before even reading this thread, I recommend reading...

You can also check out the book by Selco Begovic, SHTF Survival Stories, which demolishes many myths about societal collapse from his personal experience during the years of urban terror in the Balkans. Another good one is Deep Survival by Lawrence Gonzales, detailing stories of how and why some exceptional people survived in wilderness emergencies. Both books are good because they focus on mindset first and foremost.

Apple C2 modem to bring satellite 5G connectivity

A new rumor from a Chinese leaker suggests that Apple’s C2 modem which is expected to be featured inside the iPhone 18 Pro series will support 5G satellite connectivity. The rumor claims the C2 modem will offer support for New Radio Non-Terrestrial Networks (NR-NTN) connectivity. This means devices with the new modem will be able to connect to low-Earth orbit satellites for direct internet access in areas without traditional cellular coverage.

This is not the first time we’re hearing about Apple’s push into NR-NTN, as Cupertino has been rumored to bring the feature for some time now. The C2 modem is also expected to be integrated inside the main chipset unlike the current C1 and C1X modems.

In addition, the leak suggests that Huawei was conducting public testing for its own NR-NTN solution last year and 2026 is shaping up to be the starting point for satellite internet connectivity for several smartphone OEMs.
