One of the things that weighs me down is posts making me dwell on the things that weigh me down.

I’m located in a van in New Zealand so I only use mobile data. I pay NZ$40 (US$25) per month for “unlimited” data, which is all I can eat but capped at 1Mbps. I can stream 720p barely, but I mostly torrent. I typically use about 60-80GB a month.

TLDR; the front side is 23% efficient, and the rear side 20% efficient.

They don’t actually give an overall efficiency but it implies a total of 43%. They compare this to typical panels also at 23% efficient, so it’s really remarkable if true. Other emerging solar tech is up to about 32% but if that could also benefit from multiple layers then total efficiency could become insane.

Seems a little too good to be true, really, but great if so.

Edit: Yeah, I don’t think these efficiencies can be added like that. I guess the overall efficiency will depend on how reflective the ground under the panels is, and they will extract 20% of that. Maybe that’s why they don’t give an overall rating.

Anyone who isn’t at least mildly interested that you know Morse code isn’t someone you want to know :-)

Good filter technique.

I’m just using a Samsung S20+. You need a Samsung if you want Dex.

My phone is my sole PC and has been for about 7 months now. I use it for everything. I’m using nreal AR glasses for a massive virtual 80" screen via Dex. I use a Bluetooth mouse and mechanical keyboard. I use libre office for real work, I do development work right on the phone. I also use andronix on the phone for when I need a more full blown Linux desktop for gimp, IDEs, GIS, etc.

FYI, you are able to edit titles on the fediverse in case you want to the missing word.

Presumably you can still edit your messages and replace the content via a script like people are doing on reddit?
