Not a terribly insightful article for people who aren't deeply familiar with what those policies actually do, which is what I was curious about. All I could gather is that most of the country is electrified and they invested in maintaining and building paved roads.

This is mostly just a fun little campy B-movie, with some great 80's synth music. Thought I'd share it since I've been wanting to see this forever, and someone finally uploaded it! :D
Dried lentils are an incredibly versatile ingredient, keep forever, are cheap and healthy, and unlike dried beans, do not require overnight soaking to use in a meal.
If your state salts the roads in the winter, it's strongly recommended to undercoat your vehicle with a coating to preserve it from rusting and shortening its useful life. Fluid Film is one of the better coatings, and is based on sheep lanolin, so it's not toxic to the environment.
4wheel drive is nice, but tires are EVERYTHING. You absolutely cannot rely on all season tires, you MUST get proper Winter tires if your region snows heavily, or you will have a bad time.
There are now fabric snow 'socks' for cars that act like snow chains to get you out if a bind, which would be worth having in the trunk.
In the winter, ALWAYS bring winter rated clothing in the car along with water, a small amount of food, heavy duty blanket, and a small liquid paraffin candle for heat in the event you get stuck in a storm, or go off the road from ice.
There's so many good options now: Eternity, Raccoon, Voyager, Jerboa, I'd give the competition a look and donate to the one you settle on.

Title: The success story of guerrilla photovoltaics as a solar punk narrative
Post Body: In recent years, photovoltaics have become widespread in Germany in a decentralized manner. The solar punk vision of a self-sufficient, more climate-friendly energy supply is getting a little closer. This is also a success story of social transformation, advanced by Do It Yourself and disobedience (both central characteristics of punk), through serious global crises, social role models and positive social contagion effects.
Four electric buses fitted with rooftop solar panels are already operational under a joint venture between Con Edison and First Student.
Alas, Simon Clark is a youtuber. If you don't mind the lack of context, all the links to the different sources of climate news and science journals he uses are in the description.
In a way, or at least in spirit, it's similar to the Whole Earth Catalog: Access To Tools, which is something NODE has mentioned enjoying before. So I suppose it is more of a catalog. It is unfortunate it's reliant on having an internet connection to be used, but still, quite an impressive collection.

🌟 Community Highlights 🌟
We have a new community thanks to @CurlyWurlies4All, who created !enshitification@slrpnk.net, a place to document and discuss the downward trend of the tech world as described by Cory Doctorow.
Or maybe you're interested in how you or your community can better respond to the upcoming changes due to climate change? You might want to check out !disasterresponse@slrpnk.net, which gathers together some excellent articles and guides on preps, mutual aid, and disaster response.
But what if you have a burning question about solarpunk problems, solutions, or ideas? Something that makes you do the chin grabby thing and ponder about the future? Well why not ponder about visiting !asksolarpunk@slrpnk.net and drop a big 'ol brain tingler in there! (I'm sorry).

⚕️ Experts & Fighting Misinformation 👩🏿🔬
We recently received a report for a post spreading potentially dangerous misinformation in !antidepressants@slrpnk.net, and as the creator and mod of that community is MIA, we had to determine ourselves if the report was legitimate. We eventually determined that the post wasn't misinformation, but as we admins are not medical experts, it took a fair amount of effort to research.
With how potentially dangerous medical misinformation can be, and with how widespread it is online, this situation highlights the importance of having someone qualified to root out that mis-info on subjects where it has the possibility of doing serious harm. We've decided to lock the community to prevent the possibility of that occurring in the future, at least until someone with the ability to weed out that harmful information wishes to take over moderating the community.

🛠️ Technical Updates 📡
Despite last month's announcements, not much actually happened so far. We are currently considering pushing back the Photon frontend migration until the new Svelte5 based version stabilizes, but are optimistic that it will bring a nice speed improvement.
We are currently struggling a bit with IP/DNS issues, as our contract with the glass-fiber internet provider does not guarantee a fixed IP (the joys of DIY hosting...). After nearly five years of never changing it, they seem to have made some backend changes and now it seems to randomly change some time. For now, we put an automatic monitoring and DNS updating in place as a mitigation, but this is not ideal on some slow updating DNS mirrors. It would be possible to upgrade to a contract with a fixed IP, but it would require some negotiations as their default offer for that has a lower upload bandwidth. On the upside, it might finally allow IPv6 connections. For now, we will probably wait and see how often this happens and how well our mitigation works.
Our Movim XMPP chat and blogging service has also seen some updates with some bug fixes and additions of "Briefs" as a sort of microblogging feature. This is not compatible with Mastodon etc., but you might have some fun with it nevertheless. The upcoming group video/audio calls are still a work in progress and will hopefully arrive by the end of the year or so. In addition, we updated the Ejabberd XMPP server to the latest 24.10 version, which includes some nice bug-fixes and a few new behind the scenes features.

⚡ Solar-Powered Servers ☀️
We have not really analyzed our power consumption via the newly installed solar panels, and it has been a bit rainy the last month, so production has not been optimal. By a guesstimate, we covered about 70-80% of the total electricity needs of our servers, with some days of significant surplus but insufficient battery storage capacity. In a few months we will probably have a clearer picture how well it fares over the winter, but so far it is better than expected.

💬 Open Discussion 🗨️
It wasn't just a poem, we really do like it when you share with us your news, questions, happenings and thoughts. If it's about the instance, the fediverse, or anything else you think is on topic (like how you created that new community? You know the one), this is the time to slam it (or gently place it, that's cool too) down below!
We hope you all had a great October and fun filled Halloween. If we're lucky, maybe November will start with a touch of Steve McQueen. :)
...I'll stop now.
Not really sure what to critique, all I can say is it's absolutely awesome! 😄
One version of the recipe was accidentally leaked a while back. It's not the exact formulation they sell today, but apparently it's damn close.
I believe to ping someone, you need to put an @ symbol before their name instead of /u/. Depending on how you're interacting with Lemmy (web or app) it should provide some means of auto completing the ping.
This aesthetic screenshot of an old windows app has been in my inspiration space for ~5 years. Until recently, I assumed that it was just a nostalgia bait concept.

FreeTube is a client that runs on your own computer, it's not a host I can link to like Invidious was, because google effectively killed that method.

I think it's more for the neat factor than anything. It'd be a cool spice rack if mounted on a wall in a pantry.
Eyyy! Glad to hear it man :D
Were they more beefy and less noticeably not meat compared to the grill? Because if yes, then I'm starting to wonder if maybe beyond beef would be better in the air fryer too, since I only ever tried frying those in a cast iron pan.
He was charged with planning to lead them, though I'm not sure if that was actually true or just a charge to slap on him before the execution. He did smuggle arms for the counter-revolutionaries, but only after his comrades and friends were being arrested for counter-revolutionary activities.
despite claims otherwise to some of their less ML compatriots, this seems to have been the plan more or less from the start. Several of the revolution’s leaders were executed for not being ML-leaning.
Confirmed by William Alexander Morgan, who became disillusioned with Castro, and was then executed despite how much he'd helped the revolution.
I'm probably up to, like, 90% vegetarian these days (it's been a long road lol).
You're way ahead of me, I've been kinda stuck trying to find a good homemadd alternative to impossible, but it's been tough to find something that passes the good enough mark.
I notice the difference with Beyond meat as well, which has a slightly unpleasant aftertaste for me too. Overall just OK. Usually don't seek it out.
I'm surprised people at those cookouts can notice with impossible though. I haven't tried to grill them, so maybe that makes it more pronounced? But out of my airfryer, I genuinely cannot detect anything unmeaty about them, which blew my mind the first time I tried em.
I tend to get them as a treat since they're so much. I rarely see them on sale around here :/
The meat industry is always trying to greenwash themselves somehow, they cannot be trusted.
With how intensely serious and rapid global warming is becoming, we really don't have time to try and make meat lower emissions, we need to move away from it now.
Though unfortunately expensive, impossible burgers and ground 'beef' are virtually indistinguishable from the real deal already, and IMHO taste better than real, and truly are a guilt-free-ish alternative that exists right now. I only hope demand increases so they can scale up even harder and bring prices down to the same cost as cheap beef.
