Wieder 1 Telefonat von #Trump & #Putin, in dem der russische Diktator nur seine Forderung nach Kapitulation der #Ukraine wiederholte...

Wieder neue Sanktionen der #EU, die jedoch den Kern der Sache verfehlen: Wir importieren immer noch fossile #Gewaltenergien wie v.a. Erdöl & Erdgas, mit denen wir #Ressourcenfluch - Regime & Terrorgruppen wie #Wagner, #Hamas, #Hisbollah, #Huthi finanzieren. Wir finanzieren den #Fossilismus statt #Solarpunk weiter, auch in Deutschland... scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-

Natur des Glaubens · Der fossile Wahnsinn 4: Wir finanzieren weiterhin Russland & rüsten dann dagegen aufDr. Michael Blume macht darauf aufmerksam, dass die Europäische Union ihre fossilen Importe aus Russland weiterhin kaum reduziert.

alxd ✏️ solarpunk prompts

#Solarpunk #writing and #art idea:

A #watershed #map instead of a political or elevation one.

Imagining a world divided into bio-regions not by some arbitrary political body, but by the rivers and water circulation.

We could make it into a beautiful symbol of a sustainable future.

More about it - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage

The one below is a work of grasshoppergeography.com/

"A Half Built Garden" book by Ruthanna Emrys implements such a vision!

A globe of the Earth, but instead of a political or altitude map it's a colored map of watersheds with brightly-colored rivers making for the natural regions of the planet

Practising what I preach, vis-à-vis recycling, reuse, solarpunk, etc.

Used inner tube rubber from the bicycle shop across the road, plus some vulcanizing glue, means the soles of these trainers will last a little bit longer now.

I'd rather have used an old car tyre, but one hasn't materialised (ironic, usually they're everywhere).

Until we have a public who comprehend the interdependence of the natural world and human wellbeing, an action by any US folks as simple as submitting a comment on Scalia's acolytes removing the definition of "Harm" from the Endangered Species Act is pretty simple #solarpunk - only 195k of 340 million have!! - but we have to do so by 11:59 Eastern Time, a little over an hour and a half from this toot.

Protect American (wild)life and tell them to leave the Act intact.

It'll be okay, we'll make it.

#Electronics #DIY #solarpunk
Okay, I thought I was just tripping but the advertised "max current" of the mosfets I have salvaged from junk electronics showed as being "100 amp at 75V".

That was the biggest lie I could ever be told. They are 10A continuous at the 40 volts I have been using them at. Just to make sure that inductive flyback wasn't to blame, I took a long section of rod and and another junk battery with a switch for the gate and hooked it up.

Sure enough, even with the wheels in the air and the brakes completely off, poof! The flyback was only about 40 mV, thanks to the flyback diodes I had obtained earlier. Bulk capacitors are hardly necessary, but I'll throw them in anyway.

I will be searching for some supremely powerful IGBT modules or some extreme FETs. We're dealing with peaks of over 1kA current!

Something's telling me it just might be better to rig it up with a switch for now and look for some better transistors to buy instead of plunder.

If all this works out, then I'll be able to move far heavier things than my ebike could.

An old, rusty, dingy looking Westinghouse 436 marketeer utility car, with equally shoddy looking car batteries. It's up on jack stands. A vice lay flipped upside down with the remains of a FET clamped within. A random modified car alternator from the last scrap search is also sitting next to the vice.
