Tried out a solarpunk demo on Steam and it’s honestly such a peaceful experience 🌿

I walk through the whole demo so you can see if it’s worth playing — plus I left in some cozy no commentary gameplay at the end if you just want to relax 🤍

I recorded a podcast yesterday with the delightful @henrylienauthor.bsky.social!

The pod lifts up hopeful climate fiction stories but it's also an extended tutorial on #solarpunk storytelling. This ep is a great addition to that conversation!

Ep. 36 coming soon!

Utopia, with solar panels Solarpunk began as a sci-fi vision of a beautiful, sustainable planet. Now it inspires Hollywood movies and real-life tech. Can it change the world?

Solarpunk: 🏙️
-Forged by millennials and zoomers (way cool)
-Optimistic
-Is literally the solution
-Eco-communism (reactionaries hate it)

Cyberpunk: 🌆
-Invented by Gen X (depressed boomers)
-Defeatist
-Offers no solution
-Give fascists something to strive towards

Ok friends...if you want more people to know about #solarpunk, I've got a thing you can do: request solarpunk books at the library.

In favor of the environment I might switch to openSUSE slowroll because it means less Downloads. Maybe even more exposure to simply just gaming.

Really enjoying my switch to SUSE KDE. Especially gaming-wise (on tumbleweed).

Meta: Help Users Stop Accidentally Sharing Private AI Conversations Meta's AI app makes private chats public — often without users realizing. Mozilla is urging Meta to fix the design and protect user privacy.

Meta's behaviour is outrageous, please sign this petition. I donated too, because @mozilla.org do awesome work and just alone the development of the beloved Firefox browser (and Thunderbird) is reason enough to donate to them.
