I love the aesthetic and ideas, but personally I couldn't get into it that much. It ~~seems~~ feels too unrealistic and a little like greenwashing (renewable energy and other high-tech is core to the ideology).
A book featuring the style which I really liked was A Psalm for the Wild-Built.
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
If you know it will break, try to see how to reduce the damages.
Even if these are an alternate evolution path I think it's pretty exciting. The results presented by the teams investigating this sound pretty convincing.
I think you can (and are encouraged to) actually visit them. I don't know how this skepticism can be helpful, especially in a UFO-specific community.
I wish you the best, and that you find a safe place where you can relax and collect your strength <3
Thank you! Trying my best to not die of boredom :P
A little bit of Go when I'm not too frustrated from loosing the last game (don't know why this happens only with Go, but I can't help it) and Netrunner.
It's obviously not as energy-efficient as burning fossil fuels, so it's a hard sell. Honestly, I just want it to come back for the looks (and obviously the environmental health benefits).
Can't type much because I need to recover from RSI (again), so I'm just enjoying the end of the summer with my brother. Mostly playing card games and going outside. I've started watching a playthrough of Anonymous;Code to improve my Japanese, but without being able to use the keyboard I can't really look things up. Oh, and the osu!mania world cup ends next week, so that'll be fun to watch.
Props for actually answering the question, and with a reasonable language too. Although Forth hasn't clicked for me personally, and I doubt it's a better choice for OP, it's still a unique language design and worth studying.
I guess people forget that ships originally where powered 100% by wind and manpower. Would love to see that coming back in some form, but seems like it's just not profitable enough (yet).
Sorry, I used the wrong wording. I meant to write that it feels a little like greenwashing to me, because I don't have a lot of faith in a "green transition" (not enough materials, exploitation of the global south etc...). But the good thing is that the solarpunk vision can work just as well in a low-tech environment.
