If you're interested in the intersection of ecology, social politics, and technology, check out my website and updated blog on Ghost! Over there, I have DIY guides, short #solarpunk stories, and articles about building dual power and prefigurative futures. blog.hydroponictrash.solar

But adding back the human touch, creativity, and authenticity seems to be where the new waves of change are heading - especially in this AI blip we are going through.

The Arts and Crafts movement, the Luddites, and medieval guild systems that have all hit the same points: Automation and industrialization sucks the life out of things. Everything becomes a copy of a copy because it's reproducible.

Cyberdecks seem to be having a resurgence, and the designs are changing for the better. More women, non-binary, and trans people are at the forefront of creating new designs. People are going analog, while also embracing technology. #solarpunk blog.hydroponictrash.solar/cyberdecks-goi…

@Mail_Gun I have (twice), and they closed the support ticket after saying my account was banned, gave no reason, and did not respond from there out. Incident #4040152

@HydroponicTrash Thank you for bringing this to our attention. If you have not yet contacted our Support team regarding this refund request, can you send us an email to help@mailgun.com? If you have already created a ticket, send us the ticket number and we'll be more than happy to investigate.

We all know what’s going on, but we can determine where we go from here. Like mycelium, we can decompose the rot and make new life. #permacomputing #solarpunk anarchosolarpunk.substack.com/p/our-resistan…

@Heltec_Auto CANT WAIT!!!!

@HydroponicTrash Nice one so...if i tell you we are developing a next-generation panel for Meshtastic, and much more function than v3 .

Updated the T-Deck and Heltec LoRA modules to the latest version of Meshtastic. The UI looks sooo much better. 3D printed cases, buttons, and added batteries. Now they can legit be used off grid and recharged with a portable solar panel.

@UK_Daniel_Card Everyone knows the true black teamer's weapon is a can of computer duster for REX sensors. But the can has to be black, and in a tactical holder to really work.

a what teamer???

Just thinking about “mud huts” again

All of this is interconnected. Building autonomous power, communications, and manufacturing systems can allow us to divest from the current systems, create the things that people need, while also paying close attention to the environmental impacts of what we make and how we do it

If these fablabs were created using renewable energy like hydroelectric, wind, or solar PV, we could have autonomous manufacturing that uses modular or recycled materials, that is completely operational regardless of access to grid power. anarchosolarpunk.substack.com/p/offgridsolar

Localized manufacturing might play a huge role in us providing everyday needs for people, in equitable and ecological ways. With rising inflation - making durable, affordable, and recycled goods within local communities will be important. 🧵
