I think solarpunk is more dark than bright.
Taking electric vehicles as an example: Electric vehicles are great and should replace nearly all fossil powered vehicles. But at the same time, the amount of vehicles should be reduced significantly. This can happen trough better public transport, but also by reducing the need to go places, especially related to consumption and work. In my opinion, this can only work with a shift in the way our economy works.
You could write your content in markdown and use pandoc to generate a html file. Add header/footer in template if you want
Jellyfin or funkwhale
point all the lights down
This is so simple but way too many don’t do it. There is a streetlight that illuminates our room completely, even though it is 4 stories below…
Fair point, but I think there are technical solutions for differentiation
Another more crazy idea could be to use a remote (e.g. a smartphone) which communicates with lights to automatically have illuminaiton around you from public lights. People could even set their own brightness
What about some combination of 2 and 3 with “smart” control, like motion activated or buttons that light up a street for the next 500m or so and turn off after some time
I don’t think it is possible to run android without any binary blobs from vendors or other. They try to limit it as much as possible, while still remaining practical and offer compatibility.
It looks very weird, but if you put it like abab vs abba, it makes more sense
I raise you thousands of gzipped files (total > 20GB) combined into one dataframe. Frankly, my work laptop did not like it all that much. But most basic operations still worked fine tho
Yeah I see it now too, but this was like the 3rd attempt that got published
Also it’s a way shittier version of what I tried to post but it was all gone and didn’t want to write everything again…
Very true and I think the 2 points could already come a long way. They could also be applied to the fediverse or similar networks without issue.
Very well put! I think parts of the fediverse are pretty close already, because they really focus on community. slrpnk, beehaw or mander come to mind. But the larger the instances are, the less they are an actual community and more of a random collection of people.
The people that I know who would be interested in the concept are also the people who don’t have any social-media at all…
lmao
But don’t confuse this with me having friends tho ;)
I basically never comment on Youtube, so not sure about the first ones.
Key words also trigger their system and put you on their watch list.
But probably this… Maybe “federated” or “non-profit” is too spicy for Youtube haha
I tried commenting on Youtube to bring up the idea of the fediverse. However, my comments are not shown. Does anyone know how Youtube blocks comments?
Yeah that is also I thought I have, but usually more with encryption. If the government (or any other entity really) wants to mandate a backdoor to private messages, I’ll just host my own service for that. They can’t control every private person (at least as long encryption isn’t broken). The same idea would could be applied to social-media. Even if there’s a total ban, they won’t be able to prosecute anyone hosting their own little server.
Ah I mixed up light and bright haha
But I still think solarpunk may be a bit darker than even “bright”, as technology is not only the tools to make the change, but technology is one aspect of it and direct change in the political and economical system is needed as well.
