Small plug-in solar panels gain traction as an affordable way to cut electricity bills

For years, solar power at home was mostly limited to people who owned their rooftops and could afford the steep upfront costs.

Yay! My #Mastodon trifecta is now complete! My blue & orange (is it orange‽) #Plushtodon came in last night, & I opened it yesterday, but I was too tired to post about it as I just got off work.

But yes, I am excited that the two smaller Plushes arrived! Thanks @Mastodon for creating these!

Also…we need more #ActivityPub apps to create real world wearables or plushies, as they are great conversation starters for folks who are not familiar with the #Fediverse.

Three Mastodon plushies! Bigger one is in the middle while the two smaller ones are on either side.

I spent a lot of time trying to sync the video with the music, I think I did a pretty good job, but it may still be a little out of sync closer to the end.

The image shows a porch: a stone structure with a low wall and adjacent pillar, both made of large, rectangular, light gray stones with dark mortar lines. The wall has a slightly weathered appearance with some discoloration. On top of the wall, there are small rounded objects (some rocks and two small clay frog sculptures) and sparse greenery. Behind the wall, a wooden picket fence with vertical slats is visible. To the right of the fence, large ceramic plant pots are present; one has a yellow and blue striped design. The background includes a beige wall and a door. The door is opened slightly, but interior is not visible.

Hello, #Winter. Nice to see you again.

#Montana #photography

Sun shines from behind fluffy grey and white clouds, casting dark shadows of snow covered trees on newly fallen snow
snow clings to the seeds of a solitary grass, bent over by the weight of snow, in front of a snowy forest
The bare branches of a dead tree form an oval frame, inside which is a distant snowy forested hillside, under dense, gray, foggy sky
The sun weakly lightens a patch of dense, grey clouds above a stand of conifer trees flocked with snow. One small pine tree is bowed under the weight of a complete cover of rime

I really want to be interested in this "dark forest theory of the internet" but just listened to their podcast about the economics of it and they just went on and on about using substack and discord as if that was somehow revelatory? I couldn't get the point of what they were saying at all. Then they talked about how charging for membership of their closed group didn't really make money but helped weed people out, with no consideration that some people don't have spare cash? Then went into crypto and I tuned out but there was something about tax..

Anything Metalabel touches is a grift. This feeling you describe "I really want to be interested ..", is their main product. They were huge during the NFTs era, they're trying to find how to still be relevant.

@neauoire I find their stuff really interesting and I take it more as coming from the perspective of a lot of people working in various art/culture industries where tech is not necessarily a person’s strength or focus, and these are the tools that are being commonly used to cobble together a way to make a living from all of it online. They were on the nft train but seemed like one of the few that believed there could be something real in it in terms of new opportunities for creative work (and have since moved away from those ideas that didn’t pan out)
