That looks brilliant! Can't wait to follow its progress
Feels pretty cool to see Emma Thompson wearing an extinction rebellion logo
Oooo I hadn't heard of Niagara launcher before. It looks really beautiful!
I was very happy to find when I was getting involved in a project that it was mostly organised/discussed on their forum, it makes it so much nicer and more accessible
Fingers crossed that we get one of those eventually too
You can buy galvanised steel water butts. I don't know what their quality is like as I haven't been able to get one yet, but when I get a chance to install a water butt, it's what I plan to use.
Have all these prints been sliced at the same time? (Like on the same version of the slicer)
I had an issue on my filament printer where I thought it was messing up, so I tried a few different prints to make sure and it was still failing. But it turned out that it was caused by a buggy Cura update
I'm on an Asus UX410U and he's been going well for 7 years. I'll probably need to replace it this year or next year as the screen is starting to go, but I feel 7 years is pretty good.
This is it: https://github.com/Flomp/wanderer So far it's just a way to host your own trail maps, but hopefully it will expand to have more functionality like tracking your walks/runs.
It's not ready yet, but Wanderer looks like it may end up being a good Strava alternative
Lots of people like to keep their 2FA separate from their password manager, so that there isn't a single point of failure
The trial is currently going on in Oxford and I think is going pretty well. The primary issue I've found is that the infrastructure just isn't good enough to keep up with this use, and so pedestrians, cyclists, and e-scooter riders are all uncomfortably close together considering their vastly different speeds.
If we improve the infrastructure though, I think they're great.
Would highly recommend volunteering with SJA, thoroughly enjoyable and rewarding
If wallabag isn't your jam, then omnivore also works well
It is back up now, thankfully
It is back up now
Breezy weather looks great, but it isn't available on the Play Store, which unfortunately limits it's adoption
BricsCAD is good, but it costs quite a lot. Otherwise the Ondsel fork of FreeCAD is pretty good.

FarmBot is an open source project aimed at making CNC farming accessible to as many people as possible.
RepRap is a project about democratising and decentralising manufacturing through low-cost open source 3D printers.
3D printers give communities the ability to repair items even when official replacement parts don't exist. They also allow people to produce small runs of custom parts, where more traditional manufacturing methods may be wasteful.
There are obviously issues with sustainability in the 3D printing community, primarily with material source, material recycling/composting, and waste. But even with these current issues, 3D printers provide a lot of utility and may have a place in our solarpunk future.
If you're interested in learning how to build your own renewable energy devices, this DIY vertical axis wind turbine is a great place to start.
A cool open source DIY wind turbine project

Amybo is a non-profit open source community project working on protein fermentation in an effort to reduce the carbon intensity of food production, as well as improve climate resilience as things like crop failures become more common.
The project is currently focussed on the low-cost distributed science aspect, but their website says they want biotechnologists, chefs, coders, creatives, engineers, enthusiasts, environmentalists, makers, medics, microbiologists, and nutritionists. So basically... Just lots of people.
They're still in the early stages but looks like a fun project to get involved in.
