Been playin a lot of no mans sky to unwind lately

@yosh I'm just too addicted to mutable references on the heap being trivial in JS >:P

@yosh I think my issue is that I am trying to reuse it both in a closure and later in some other code.

I think I just need to rewrite this using channels and treat the two simulated peers as fully separate peers + have them listen on incoming events generated from a third thread doing the networking.

Coding in rust makes me feel so stupid :P

It seems I need to place the mutex into an arc after all?

`Mutex<Option<TunnelManager>>`

is a lot more reasonable. :P

```
{
let mut tunnels1 = tunnels1.lock().await.unwrap();
tunnels1.open_tunnel(route_id).await?
}
```

Ain't it funky

Here I thought I was some rust hotshot but then I need to share a mutable value between threads.

`Arc<Option<Mutex<TunnelManager>>>` is one hell of a type. :P

This post brought to you by the Minima blockchain whitepaper. But honestly it seems every single neat protocol is doing this. https://docs.minima.global/minima_pdfs/Minima_Whitepaper_v11.pdf

It'd be cool if people making decentralized p2p protocols had flagship apps that were than "a chat app but only for people wanting to bother using this protocol". Most folks don't get much utility from yet another chat app and it's just the diehards that will bother joining and end up only using it to talk to each other while developer hours continue to not serve adoption at large.

Writing tests for my #veilid tunnel system. Listening to some jams to get in the right mood.

THe bioelectrict manipulation of morphology is neat for general medical stuff but I am mostly excited for all my trans friends to have more options for gender affirming body mods. Cis people too! Hopefully once all the humans get theirs I can get my extra arms and eyes grown.
