Penkesu is a handheld PC that you can build yourself. (penkesu.computer)
I've always been fascinated by these small computers. GPD makes these kinds of devices too. Ordered one once but I never got it. Been thinking of building one myself though I'm worried it would be too small to enjoyable use. I would definitely write on it, that I am sure of.

What Solarpunk Tech do you own?
Kind of curious what tech people own, everything from small to big tech. Assuming solarpanels are a given for a lot of peeps here, or maybe will be in the future. But what other tech do you own that you’re happy with?

Lithium-free sodium batteries exit the lab and enter US production (newatlas.com)
It’s so rare to actually see a new battery tech exit the lab and enter production. Always seems like there’s 10,000 new up and coming breakthroughs in battery technology, but none ever leave the workbench....

I was watchin the last episode of ‘‘earthsounds’’ (docuseries that you can find on torrent) and they said to have used one of this with a microphone mounted under it to record better sounds from whales (because they travel a looooooot and not always on the same routes)....
Why Flushing Isn't For Everyone - YouTube (youtube.com)
💩 tech! On a serious note, this was in my random recommends and I clicked it and now I know about something I had no idea even existed. If this technology can come to fruition, it’ll be great for the world.

Keurig's new K-Rounds coffee pods are plastic-free and could finally make single-serve coffee-making sustainable (www.techradar.com)
This is quite exciting in that it removes plastic waste. I see no reason why different companies can’t make different shape ones to maintain their lock-in. I expect a knock-off market to pop-up, but that exists with plastic pods too. It’s a step in the right direction at least.

solar concrete kiln design questions (slrpnk.net)
This might be a bit of a reach but I’m wondering if anyone here knows enough about concrete production to help me plan the layout of my next photobash. I’d like to do a scene of a solar-thermal concrete factory – there are several supposedly in the works, like Synhelion’s new partnership with Cemex, funded by the US DoE,...
