I think it's time for a (re)introduction! I've been an #antifascist guerrilla journalist/documentarian for 25 years. I now care for my partner who has #ME caused by Covid. Recently I've written a lot about #Covid, #ableism, and technology (see pinned posts). For the times we live in, I'm now finalising a three-parter on my website connecting #solarpunk, #municipalism, Murray Bookchin memes, the #Fediverse and #zines! I'm exploring possibilities of it becoming a zine itself. I also blog at my website if you'd like to subscribe (for free). I'm now the founder of @thepeoplestech@floss.social that intends to promote alternatives to Big Tech. I'm also developing a video series on how Covid has shown us capitalism and care cannot co-exist. Oh and I'm launching a pop culture zine called @bubblegumrebellion@retro.pizza if you're into that kind of thing (I'm very into #ComicBooks and #LuchaLibre!) #Introduction #Intro

Just finished up with the #repairCafe at the library.

I was main for bicycles and backup for laptop repair and Linux Install.

I managed to:

  • tune a derailleur on one bike
  • attach a kickstand to another
  • swap out fresh tires and inner tubes for a third (and taught the family how to do and supervised them while they did the second tire!)

As backup for laptop repair, I helped diagnose and find a mitigation for a set or USB headphones/mic that was only pushing sound through one speaker.

I also met a lot of folks throughout town. Talked to some city organizers and officials. Talked to other groups and folks and had a great time.

The other repair stands besides my bicycle station were:

  • A sewing and mending station
  • An electronic / appliance repair station
  • A historical preservation station
  • A furniture repair station
  • A laptop repair and Linux install station
  • A kids section with coloring and activities

It was a good day.

Our Water Well Project is moving forward again after a recent pause and we are almost there! Thank you so much for being patient & supportive, becuase we are now working towards bringing the water closer to our farm and community, regardless of all the challenges. We’re happy to be back with an update on our water well project after a period of silence. The quietness was because of the challenges i.e we had to find an advanced drilling company with the correct gears and expertise to proceed on that greater depth(>100ft), we also had to raise the new funding(1200 eur)... On the other hand, the drilling its self with a new advanced company has also been very very slow because of the rainy season that has been interrupting. The attached photos show the water that collects every after 5 hours which is a clear sign for the experts to say we are near the water table Bottom line; This journey is not easy at all, but not impossible. #uptdate #sustainability #waterwellproject #solarpunk

Yay! This #SolarPunkSunday I just learned that my novella, The Blossoming of the Big Tree, is the #SFFBookClub pick for November, so I'm excitedly waiting to see what discussions come up.

Read a sample and get it here, or in major stores. https://www.ododopress.com/novellas/the-blossoming-of-the-big-tree/ Here is the original announcement. https://weirder.earth/@picklish/117480960032544259 #book #bookstodon #book #solarpunk #sff

I got a midnight message from a volunteer within our local community food group telling me they're taking down some of our servers until this PHP vuln is patched. If you're in IT or technically proficient, supporting a local mutual aid or charity group is an amazing way of helping out. (A lot of people ask me how a person who is unable to meet in person or be physically in proximity with others can help out in community groups - this is an amazing way to do that.) Edit to add: A lot of local community groups have a tiny amount of IT assets that are still critical to them. For our group, it's a single wiki server (along with some third party communication apps like email, chat, and our website). It's generally easy for them to maintain that small number as a volunteer. Anything larger for a big non-profit should be a paid position in our current economic model. #solarPunk

Israel is not just committing genocide of people but also cultural and ecological genocide. 90% of Palestinian olive trees have been destroyed in the last few years, farms and livelihoods destroyed. A network of Palestinians and allies seeks to preserve Palestinian heirloom seeds and cultural heritage. See below to support this group, order seeds, raise awareness and offer to be a seed saver. https://www.palestineheirloomseedlibrary.com/ #solarpunksunday #solarpunk #gardening #garden #jardin #garten #Palestine

Recent discussions about self-hosting and coop services got me thinking... How absurd is it that we're all expected to surrender our computing needs to for-profit hyperscalers and cloud service providers? How dare these oligarchs try to make us feel weak and incapable of providing for ourselves? They want us to forget that three decades ago we collectively created one of the world's fastest supercomputers with distributed.net using nothing more than scavenged compute power from our idle PCs. They want us to forget that most of us have drawers full of old-but-otherwise-servicable smartphones with performance specs meeting or exceeding that of low-tier cloud service provider VMs, which might be brought back to useful life using open source tech like @postmarketOS@social.treehouse.systems. They want us to ignore open source tech like BOINC, web assembly, and @thekhronosgroup@fosstodon.org 's Vulkan and OpenCL that might allow us to safely run local and distributed compute. They want us to assume we have no choice but to accept higher electricity bills and greater reliance on fossil fuels to drive oligarch-run computing, and to ignore how the explosion of rooftop solar and the rapid commercialization of sodium ion battery tech could shift our society's power dynamics, both literally and figuratively. We are mighty. #solarpunk

My father-in-law is a distributor for these solar roofing panels and gifted us some of them for Christmas and we're finally getting the ball rolling on getting them installed. Our roof is in major need of repair so two birds one stone... And we SHOULD be able to produce a surplus due to our South facing roof in the Colorado sun and we're going to put in some backup batteries. I'm so excited to see how this all turns out! https://www.apluspvt.com/ #solarpunk #homesteading
