Self-hosting@slrpnk.net•A Few Thoughts and Observations about the Recent Huge Computer Parts Price Increases
16·9 months agoYeah, no, I’m not going through two different ‘prove you’re not a robot’ screens for one article about RAM chips, thanks.
Becuase somehow during the purge the rich and influential will somehow be vulnerable instead of the right-wing billionaires literally pushing the poor into a literal lava pit?
Hihi, I’m very much into urban gardening, sustainable ways to feed our communities and food preservation techniques (especially all kinds of fermentation), I’m in the GMT tz, happy to answer any questions you have!

Green Energy@slrpnk.net•California zeroes out funding for world’s ‘largest virtual power plant’
0·1 year agoDive Brief:
- California lawmakers approved a sweeping energy package at the end of the legislative session that does not include funding to continue two grid reliability programs, including a virtual power plant advocates believe is the largest in the world.
- Earlier this year, the state faced a $12 billion budget shortfall, and the two programs were in limbo for months as legislators negotiated down to the wire. The bills awaiting Gov. Gavin Newsom’s signature after the session closed Saturday include proposals aimed at bringing down energy costs, expanding the Western grid and codifying virtual power plants in longterm planning.
- Advocates say gutting the Demand Side Grid Support and Distributed Electricity Backup Assets programs threatens to undermine the state’s progress toward a more resilient grid that can respond to system stress by calling on batteries, electric vehicles, rooftop solar panels, smart thermostats and other energy resources that are increasingly common in homes, businesses and institutions.

Climate@slrpnk.net•Want to plant trees to offset fossil fuels? You’d need all of North and Central America, study finds2·1 year agoPlant a tree, let it be, don’t mow around it, leave the leaves, and when it dies or breaks, also leave it there, it’s all alive!

Climate@slrpnk.net•Want to plant trees to offset fossil fuels? You’d need all of North and Central America, study finds5·1 year agoNo, I want to plant trees because it helps to have a resilient ecosystem that’s more safe in case of a cascade collapse. I want to plant trees because they provide shade in the summer. Because they improve the soil. Because they help prevent floods. Because they give birds food and shelter. Because they are fucking PRETTY.
Can we start thinking about the whole thing instead of acting as if i single problems that are not interconnected?
Plant some fucking trees, even if they are not just carbon sequestration batteries.

Solarpunk@slrpnk.net•Giving your house plants genetically enhanced super powers
0·1 year agoThat’s because this video is an undisclosed ad probably. Also, sorry, I’m not really willing to take advice from someone who lives in Northern America with it’s completely fucked ecosystem, says to be ‘a researcher’ and still makes dumb quips about how the genetic research restrictions in Europe are ‘silly’ and ‘too much’





Amazing! I’m a huge fan, I host my personal GtS and highy recommend
