That depends on how many sun hours or/and wind you’ve got at your place, how much panels you can install and of course how much light you’re using. I don’t have the knowledge to do the math on that.
Is there a free market to buy (sustainable) electricity from at your place? Or are you forced to buy from the local/regional provider?
Today i'm actually proud of myself. I'm good with wood, textiles, gardening, trees etc. But metal, machines, electronics don't come natural to me at all.

Yesterday i upgraded ff to the current version and since today i experienced problems with a bunch of different sites. Either the cloudflare verification sends me into a loop or i get through and the site’s not working correctly. Some others work, though.

Actually i don’t remember all, since i followed links from other sites. Others i found a workaround. The only one i tried to make work and still can’t is suprfit.com.
That’s the site not working in microsoft edge neither. I just tried the troubleshooting mode in ff, still the same. It does work with ff on mobile though. Luckily i ordered my new kettlebell last week when it still worked, gonna take a while 'til i need a heavier one :)
Are there any decent instances that are connected with beehaw, lemmy.world, and lemmy.ml that have blocked lemmynsfw? I enjoy nsfw, but I’m getting sick of trying to casually scroll through all and it be 65% porn.
Haha, right after my comment i got flooded with posts from new communities on lemmy.nsfw and furry erotica. It definitively is annoying. At least the preview is blurred.

I have a Fujifilm camera and decent lens that can do 600mm FF equiv is not cheap. I’m wondering what is the best option for bird photography at that range? There are some tiny 1/2.3 compact cameras like the Sony hx99 that doesn’t seem too good. There also seem to be an option of picking up a m43 camera with a 300mm (600mm...
One possibility would be getting a used APS-C DSLR from Canon or Nikon, both come with a wide range of their own and third party lenses. Since both are wide spread they’re comparatively cheap second-hand. That might vary depending on where you live though.
I’m not sure about the current state of things, but until a couple of years ago DSLRs had still an edge over mirrorless regarding wildlife and sports.
Which apps do currently work with Beehaw? And where do i get them? I tried Jerboa from F-Droid and Google Play. It says 17.4 is to old. Lemmur from F-Droid didn't find Beehaw at all. Couldn't find other apps at both places. I'm using a Fairphone 4 with Android 12....
