I know the focus of this article was on the Dam and water sources, but I’m still kinda surprised the Grist writer just passively described the farmer’s 300 acres is used for alfalfa (and oats), which is itself responsible for the majority of water use in the west. It’s deeply unsustainable, and I would’ve thought it appropriate to at least point it out in the article, but c’est la vie.
Thanks for taking over !podcasts! :D
As for tagging, at least on PC with the normal Lemmy-ui, when I type @LibertyLizard (or just @Liberty) and then do nothing, a menu pops up next to it with names which I can click on, and that will autofill the correct formatting to tag the user in their inbox.
Also @[email protected] may like you as a co-mod over on !nolawns, never hurts to ask ^^
Thank you for volunteering! You’re all modded up now. :D
Hope that sodium battery powered e-bikes hit the market soon. They’ll have lower range, but they don’t explode or catch fire like Lithium batteries.
Florisboard has decent swipe typing from what I remember, and should be available in F-droid.
EDIT: after checking, I see Floris has not been updated in two years on f-droid. :(
@[email protected] wrote down the recipe here.
1.2l water
240ml sodium sulfate
60ml sodium chloride
20ml xantham gum(optional for increased efficacy by keeping the solution homogenous)
Boil water, stir until fully dissolved, a small amount of solute should remain, if not, increase sodium sulfate concentration slowly until it does, indicating no free water molecules available for dissolution.
Solution should now be cooled to below 18c( freezing point) for an end product that will regulate temperature to 18c so long as it have sufficient(negative) thermal energy.
Solution of pure sodium chloride will have freezing point approx -20C, while solution of pure sodium sulfate has freezing point +35C. Adjusting the ratio of NaCl to Na2SO4 will shift the freezing point towards either end of thag spectrum, depending on what phase change temperature you are targetting.
XMPP would be the best choice at this point in time, as it doesn’t suffer the downfalls of Matrix (though even Matrix would be better than Discord).
This is a summary from @[email protected]:
TL;DW:
This is a simplified version of simplified version.
I’d recommend checking out our local documentary community, [email protected], which is chock full of docs! :D
Though admittedly, most of the ones there are not directly related to solarpunk. Since the movement is really only just catching on in the mainstream, there’s not much documentary/movie content about it.
The only fictional movie I can think of that’s solarpunky would be Strange World from (ironically) Disney.
Cheers for mentioning this, that shit is right up my alley! :D
A few that come to mind:
Not everyone has the ability or spare time to become skilled in every field. Calling them lazy and illiterate for not learning a complicated thing (when they may already be learning some other complex subject) is kinda the definition of elitism.
Don’t be an elitist bung hole, dude.
That was super cool to read about, cheers for sharing your set up!
It may have been the ultimate list 4 years ago, but I haven’t updated it in so long I would’ve been embarrassed to call it the ultimate now :p
I read about that in an old comment on reddit years ago, but thought maybe it was FUD from a user that didn’t want transplants to move there. Seeing you mention it again is finally getting me to look into that story.
EDIT: Damn, it’s legit, and no one is doing anything about it.
