Science

getting very into vertical farms & automated agtech🥬

Opollo Farms is the world’s 1st fully automated vertical farming system: they use robots + AI + hydroponics to rapidly grow plants in dense, indoor, modular cube like structures

In Arizona you can already find their leafy greens (brand Willo) in whole foods!

the Kardashev scale is always going to be a joke until this is in every house

Bitcoin

Illegal Bitcoin mining has become mobile. In Russia, miners put a farm on the truck...

Specialists in Buryatia found an illegal mining farm in a truck: the intruders unauthorizedly connected to a 10-kilovolt power line.

Inside the truck they found 95 mining devices and a transformer substation capable of supplying power to a small village.

Just… wow 😯

When internet outages like this happen, I have the sudden urge to go solar/cypher punk. 

Self host everything, all solar powered.
Own hard copies of all your entertainment. 
Grow your own food, build robots and use AI to help. 
P2P and E2EE everything

space photography has a certain quality of transcendence, but it is also very much grounded to our species realizing its coexistence to something unreachable with contemporary means.

this is one X account that I wouldn't mind double-casting.
