Goodbye to the idea that solar panels “die” after 25 years. A new study says the warranty does not mark the end, and performance can last for decades. Arrays built in the late 1980s still produced more than 80% of their original power. The long-term economics look better than many people believe. bocvip.com/1170237/goodbye-to-… #energy

Upscrolled is acting glitchy today because 1000s per hour are currently signing up. But they're responding to change quickly. They' e also added new features, suggested by users, at a fast rate. It's really good to see people finally joining up (I've been there for a while).

Big follower/well-known people from other platforms - including people who were suspended or shadowbanned for speaking up against injustices. This has created both a surge in sign ups and a rapid response by devs to community suggestions.

Upscrolled was created by a Palestinian Australian, with support from Palestine Tech Start Up. It has no shadowbans, no algos, no trolls, no reply guys. It has a good community vibe.

Saw my first call out of a troll today (after being there mid 2025) who was swiftly dealt with by community.

Melania Trump Faces Ticket Sales Humiliation While Jeff Bezos Splashes 75 Million To Save The Glossy Project - Inquisitr News


Reports about slow ticket sales for Melania Trump’s upcoming documentary have been circulating online. Although no one has ever seen the film in full, it has already faced mockery and backlash from critics, who have called it a waste of time. Luckily for the FLOTUS, her husband, President Donald Trump, is a very powerful man and has a wide network of friends who are willing to rescue them in times of need.

#Introduction I update this introductory post every six months and pin it to my profile.

I am the co-owner of Hartgen Consultancy. My job completely involves working with the JAWS for Windows screen-reader in terms of training people how to use applications with it, and writing JAWS scripts which I've been doing now since 2001.
I develop products to enhance the functionality of JAWS and write scripts for government departments, health organisations, etc.
I particularly enjoy creating scripts to support an application where there are huge problems to solve and where they have been deemed to be difficult or impossible to use. In fact, that's the part of my work I enjoy most.

I am passionate about music in many genres, particularly the music of the 70's. I enjoy reading. Jeffrey Archer and Jilly Cooper are two of my favourite authors, but I very much enjoy detective fiction, family sagas, romance and biographies of celebrities and musicians.

I enjoy using technology, mainly the specialist kind such as the BrailleSense 6 and Evo Audio player. I use my iPhone for making calls and then only when I have to. Best technology investments since the pandemic: BrailleSense, The Mantis Braille display, the Evo talking book player and Remote Incident Manager.
Best technological improvements in 2024? First, ChatGPT; there isn't a better AI tool. It has helped me so much every single day. Second, JAWS Picture Smart. It has enabled me to take part in social media groups which I do every week.
Favourite TV shows past and present: Crown Court, Crossroads, Doc Martin, Bewitched, Loose Women, definitely Top of the Pops, actually too big a list to write. But a lot of us get together to discuss the old Top of the Pops TV shows, but not here.
Favourite TV show of 2024? Definitely Rivals.

I've always been interested in British radio history; let me emphasise the word British. This is radio history from the 1920's to the present.

Hates? Anything relating to Blind Pride and perceptions of what some people describe as ableist language. If you've got something to say, just say it. Relax. Don't worry about it.

I am happily married to Lulu, who I met while working for an internet radio station, which leads me to radio broadcasting. I am Manager of Team-FM and spend a good part of my free time working with that.
Those are the interesting parts about me, I hope.
Please follow me if you would like to, and welcome!

Revealed: Training Materials and Communications for Minneapolis Anti-ICE protestors

redstate.com/wardclark/2026/01…

Independent journalist Cam Higby, on Saturday, blew the lid off the Minneapolis anti-ICE protests by revealing their training and communications methods, including some very interesting specifics.

...This appears to be an organized, funded, and fairly sophisticated opposition...

Ok this one is a MUST watch (or read the transcript) if you never did before and is curious about protocols, or how Bluesky is different from Mastodon as another example

As part of preparing for #ATmosphereConf in Vancouver March 2026, we're republishing the videos from Seattle March 2025, along with transcripts. @snarfed.org@bsky.brid.gy does a comparison of many indie web protocols, including ATprotocol.

The 2026 National Defense Strategy marks a historic US retreat from global hegemony. Overextended and outcompeted by China, it abandons liberal interventionism in pursuit of retrenchment. This forces Europe to militarize, dismantling its social contract to fund US arms, while reasserting colonial control over Latin America. The strategy is an empire’s epitaph, a desperate, coercive pivot that risks uniting the world against a declining power.

Minnesota State Rep. Alex Falconer apparently is coordinating an anti-ICE resistance signal chat group. The individual who was recently shot by a Border Control officer, Alex Pretti, was participating in this state representative's chat group.

This YouTube Video discusses the fact that there are many different Signal chat groups in Minneapolis. There apparently are over a thousand people involved in efforts to impede ICE. They have a database of potential ICE license plates. They clock in and out as to performing anti-ICE "duties". At the end of each day, they delete the chat, possibly so the chat log can't be used as evidence against them.
