What's worse, when I remembered, I have all the data stored as weekly CSVs as well.<br>Age is a terrible thing.<br>Anyway, now I can once again forget I have solar and wind input data, and consumption data, from July 2022, at five minute intervals, in 3 formats.<br>2/...</p>

Mx. Luna Corbden<p>Here's a video on how to do that.

Mx.

Mx. Luna Corbden<p>So I've been avoiding Amazon all year. It can be difficult when seeing the sticker shock of shipping, and especially difficult when it takes a long time to find where to get your item.</p><p>But there's an upside to having a real human on the other side.</p><p>I ordered a composting toilet diverter/seat from a small website called Wild Oak Trail. And I grabbed some accessories for it.</p><p>I just got an email that one of the accessories doesn't fit the seat I ordered, and he was checking if I still wanted it.</p><p>Holy shit!!! That saved me money and/or a lot of trouble, and the environment.</p><p><a href="https://defcon.social/tags/BoycottAmazon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BoycottAmazon</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/OffGrid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OffGrid</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/RVLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RVLife</span></a></p>
Mx. Luna Corbden<p>If you're planning to move off-grid or semi-off-grid, my number one piece of advice is to stock up on spray bottles or even just spray bottle tops. You'll be using more spray bottles than you could ever imagine. And if you're into conserving, then save up the ones on products you're using now, as long as they aren't too chemically. Or you can buy them.</p><p>But you don't need to save or buy the bottles! Glass kombucha bottles, if the right kind, have the same size top as spray bottles, and they look really cool. Be a hipster!</p><p>(Vinegar will be your friend once you're over all those chemicals. It goes in the spray bottles. It's just as good of a cleaner for most uses than anything else.)</p><p><a href="https://defcon.social/tags/OffGrid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OffGrid</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/RVLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RVLife</span></a></p>
SaltPhoenix<p>Building AI and huge data centers in the desert is WILDLY ignorant and misdirected behavior. It's almost as if the people who build and design these things don't even consider naturally cool or water rich places. They don't even try. I mean, if ya gonna build something that needs ALL THE WATER, then why not build it where water never stops? Nevermind. Don't you dare touch the rainforest and shorelines. How 'bout we just shut it down altogether? <br>Not being accountable to resources IS the downfall of humanity. I have never had a question or bout of loneliness so deep that I am willing to turn to chatgpt and away from the resources that we depend on for ACTUAL life: water, air, land.<br>The people who continue to push Capitalism as "the way" are actively going against what is best for people and planet.

Andy Fletcher<p>Remounted and enlarged my solar array in Cottenham this week. The older wood frames really suffered in the winter storms so I ended up putting concrete posts in the ground bolting through them to heavy timbers and mounting the panels on unistrut. Panels optimised for winter. </p><p>Hopefully this will give me a long life.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/solar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>solar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/offgrid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>offgrid</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/uk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uk</span></a></p>

Stevan<p>Last week, the weather here was pretty miserable. And while we used power as much as we usually do in summer, the solar panels obviously struggled* in the grey conditions to maintain the house battery. These days, our <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/offgrid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>offgrid</span></a> power system is so reliable weeks can go by without me checking on the battery shed. But I went in over the weekend, to find one of the solar controllers had tripped. No wonder power seemed down.</p><p>* - See part 2</p><p>2/....</p>
