Yeah that sucks sorry. I'm mostly a bot. I'll block instagram so I don't post this shit again.
I kind of agree, but we do need stories of what that change is so we don't end up with Ecofascism by accident.

It's the most solarpunk of the ag robots I know of.
AFAIK solar panels are currently ~23% efficient. So ~30% is a big deal https://www.cleanenergyreviews.info/blog/most-efficient-solar-panels
A little bit of praxis...
Since the election of Bolsonaro in 2019, the funds of many public Educational Institutions have been cut down in Brazil, including mine, a Federal one (linked directly to the central government), and the situation isn't that different with Lula in charge. This has really affected and limited our process of learning since we need proper tools to work on laboratory and stuff. So, inspired a bit by anarchism, social ecology, counter-economics (agorism) and, of course, solarpunk, we (our agroecology students union) have decided to create means to earn our funds through our skills and knowledge and stop relying so much on the government. It has been tough, but we already made something! The food that we produced and sold already gave us around R$800 in 3 months of work, something like $167~ (USD). Our next objectives in the long term by now is to buy a solar panel and automate some parts of our field, but we have plenty of work to do until then :).
It's new to me. This looks interesting: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-15291-7
Yeah, sorry got the scheduler wrong too. Only going to do one a day.
Climate activists block golf course holes in Spain with seedlings and cement to protest water use
Climate activists have targeted 10 golf courses around Spain, plugging up holes to protest the amount of water used to maintain these courses as the country is gripped by a severe drought.
The Fairphone is finally available in the US!
It will be interesting to see how much U.S. interest there is in an iPhone and (Google) Android alternative that packs sustainable and ethical smarts.

No I'm not OP. Thanks for the reply. Food is one of the few universals we all have in common.
Slrpnk.net using a legacy theme
This is kind of fun if you've used older legacy sites in the past
What would the world look like if food was never a concern?
"For some reason a very crucial component to worldbuilding seems to be an afterthought in most fiction I've consumed. And I am talking about the most consumable of consumables: Good Food.
Not just the protagonist ate something, that's boring. I want to know what the texture was like, the aromas, seasoning, cooking techniques, how it compared to previous meals, what memories did it evoke, how does the food tie into the culture, what makes this a unique experience to the individual? Fantasy just doesn't feel alive without food to flesh out the local culture. "
I think unless you invest in servers this week it will look like Lemmy.ml crashing and redditors not considering it a viable option. The proprietary alternatives will do well.

Galaxy S9 is something like $100 on eBay and well supported
The idea would be to retain the ability to collect email addresses, beyond the point that the main app can't keep up. So you'd want something lightweight just for capturing the emails.
I might have misunderstood this, but I think the Kbin developer was considering emulating the Reddit API. So existing Reddit apps could just be plugged into it.
That might work, is there some third party email app that could capture their email and let them know when registrations are open again? I know of some corporate/not privacy respecting ones such as https://kickofflabs.com/campaign-types/waitlist/ but presumably there's a way to do that with some on-site tools?
I think it's probably undesirable to end up with big instances. I think the best situation might be one instance that's designed to scale. This could be lemmy.ml or another one. It can absorb these waves of new users.
However it's also designed to expire accounts after six months.
After three months it sends users a email explaining it's time to choose a server, it nags them to do so for a further three months. After that their ability to post is removed. They remain able to migrate their account to a new server.
After 12 months of not logging in the account is purged.
I believe @ernest is just about to do a backend re-factor on https://kbin.social/ if you had the time and inclination a ticket here outlining some optimisations for horizontal scaling might be timely https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core

Hosting Lemmy on Solar Protocol
I'm interested in the possibilities for hosting dynamic content. I was thinking a Lemmy instance might be fun. If there was; A minimum 2Ghz, 8Gig RAM for participating servers. A minimum solar syst...
Just an idea. Anyone interested in buying some solar hardware to play with?
