Novelist, software developer, artist
There’s a lot of articles about supply based usage vs demand based energy production on that website. The idea that it turns off every now and then is sort of part of the authors’ intention of showing “we can live with some outages”.
This article in particular is a good one: https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2017/09/how-not-to-run-a-modern-society-on-solar-and-wind-power-alone/
I know this is a typo, but I’m sad Guthub isn’t a food delivery company.
I’m sorry. Have this picture of a lime-hawk moth caterpillar I saw the other day.

I honestly don’t remember now as this was over 10 years ago.
I used this, among other things, for my personal Blender renderfarm. Cooling was a must.
To be fair, those things are really tiny!
A high-quality FOSS version of Reaper (DAW) that can use the expensive audio production plugins. Right now that’s where all Linux DAWs run short - the best plugins are only for Windows, or for Cubase. Running them through some VSTi Linux wrapper never quite works correctly.
Maybe something like After Effects with all the plugins and tools. Right now the software itself exists in Kdenlive, just not all the addons people have written for After Effects.
But pretty much everything else I use is already FOSS.
FFMPEG is nice when you do something like ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -ss 00:01:00 -t 00:03:00 out.mp4 and the result is almost instant as there’s no re-encoding.
Kdenlive, easily. The only other video editor that feels good to use on Linux is the non-FOSS DaVinci Resolve (which requires paying for you to get any practical codec support).
Some people say Blender, but those people must not work on very complicated projects…
For simple cutting & slicing I honestly just write ffmpeg oneliners.
Ah, sorry for the confusion - that server’s been out of commission for a few years already.
