Let us build together the largest resource on what is, and what is not #solarpunk!

@prahou @lambda @liaizon anything that offends my personal liberal sensibilities, like mutual aid, is NOT solarpunk

[neon_cygenta@mastodon.social]

@prahou i think if you re use existing batteries it sounds really solarpunk to me. The production of new ones probably isn’t most of the times.

@prahou tapping into the noosphere for aggregate knowedge is solarpunk

[wizard@xyzzy.link]

@prahou but like. in a metaphysical way and not an ai way

[bugbear@indieverse.social]

@jollysea @prahou Oh, I remember reading that article, but that brings us back to whether batteries are solarpunk in the first place.

If I had any electrical engineering knowledge, I think it would be fun to build the vape equivalent of that, haha.

@prahou The moon may not be solarpunk but tides and eclipses are.

[ozzelot@mstdn.social]

@prahou
of course, this activity has to be done with consent
not getting consent is not solarpunk

[the_dot_matrix@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@prahou gonna need the experts to chime in on this one

Is livecoding/demoscene solarpunk?

4kb limit, sounds solarpunk, but often it involves significant wattage from an oversized discrete GPU...

And most of the popular livecode platforms run on the web... Is JavaScript solarpunk?

Many questions!

[cararemixed@mastodon.social]

@ozzelot @prahou consent is solarpunk

[bugbear@indieverse.social]

@prahou photosynthesis is definitely solarpunk

[ozzelot@mstdn.social]

@cararemixed
preach!
@prahou

[ozzelot@mstdn.social]

@prahou
speaking of outdoor horniness: turning golf courses into public sex forests is solarpunk
golf courses are not solarpunk

[squeakypancakes@sunbeam.city]

@prahou abolition of the state and all the social hierarchies it exists to enforce is #solarpunk

[glitzersachen@hachyderm.io]

@the_dot_matrix @prahou

> but often it involves significant wattage from an oversized discrete GPU...

So, no?

[deltalima@social.la10cy.net]

@bugbear as someone who's not smoking but vaping , and doing this for four years now only with the energy from my off-grid solar system (no joke. i also charge my power banks for the to-go situations, so my vaping device is 100% solar powered since then), i would say this is definitely solar punk from my perspective ️ @jollysea @prahou

[mynameistillian@plush.city]

@prahou is solarpunk even solarpunk?

[mynameistillian@plush.city]

@prahou god scrolling this thread makes it look like just a bunch of syllables and sounds now

[damp_cuttlefish@mastodon.scot]

@Neon_Cygenta @prahou Eternally recycling the same lead acid battery is pretty solarpunk

[the_dot_matrix@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@glitzersachen @prahou often but not always... I'm not old enough to claim any sort of expertise on the various scenes that could be solarpunk (thinking Atari and c64)... I'm sure someone wiser than me could distill this into a sound dichotomy

[bugbear@indieverse.social]

@DeltaLima @jollysea @prahou that's genuinely cool!

So as a middle ground, we can all agree that solar powered vaping *is* solarpunk! Right?

Edit: And I've noticed the 30% solar energy for your Mastodon server? Also very cool!
