Kind of curious what tech people own, everything from small to big tech. Assuming solarpanels are a given for a lot of peeps here, or maybe will be in the future. But what other tech do you own that you’re happy with?

Back from the asparagus patch!
(drops into Atlantic Canadian accent)
“Turn yer head for a minute and those fuckin’ asparagus will be three foot tall and not worth a fiddler’s fuck!”
Anyway, I digress…
Some of my go-to podcasts | relevant episodes, are below:
Poor Prole’s Almanac | Skillshare episode on Arduino
It Could Happen Here | Meshtastic/LoRa episode | recent episode on off-shelf solar solutions
That LoRa episode led me to the guest’s website for more information on his pretty cool shit: Hydroponic Trash/AnarchoSolarPunk
He was also featured on Live Like The World Is Dying, which I had been listening to for a while anyway | S1E49 – Andre on Solar Power, DIY Internet, Mesh Networks, and Solar Punk
Less radical podcasts I listen to are some of the maker-type folks like Simple Electronics and the (now discontinued?) Make: Magazine podcast.
That just about covers it, other than some of the solarpunk podcasts I listen to, but I kinda feel they - while informative and entertaining - aren’t as…hands on (?)… as some of the links I shared above.

Thanks for sharing all those. Since you mentioned arduino, I thought of sharing something that came to my attention quite recently, and admittedly I found it very disturbing. Before reading that I was an arduino fan, I’m not anymore. Anyways here it is:
The Untold History of Arduino by Hernando Barragán
Thanks a lot for sharing, got a long train ride tomorrow, will check them out then! 🌻
I read far more letters in the transcript than I heard in the speaking. ;-)
