    🏜️ China&#39;s giant Gobi solar plant runs after dark on salt, not batteries ｢ During the day, the PV array feeds the grid at full load. The CSP unit does something different: 260,000 tracking mirrors covering 800,000 square meters of collector surface focus sunlight to heat molten salt to 550°C (1,022°F). That heat is stored, then used to produce steam and spin a turbine once the sun goes down ｣ https://electrek.co/2026/07/09/china-hami-solar-molten-salt-storage/ #china #solarpower #sustainab...

    💥 Discord Exodus Begins ｢ Unlike Discord, Matrix is federated. You don&#39;t have to use their main server. You can spin up your own homeserver on a Raspberry Pi or rent a VPS in a country that doesn&#39;t demand your ID card to send a meme. The trade-off? The user experience is still... rough. ｣ https://michael-dev-tech.github.io/Website/matrix.html #discord #matrix #ageverification

    🇳🇱 The Netherlands Built a Nix-Based Linux Desktop Because Microsoft Cut Off the ICC ｢ All of DAWO&#39;s code is hosted on a Forgejo instance, with a separate Codeberg instance acting as the entry point for contributors. And, to answer the question asked earlier, NixOS was chosen because it is a Dutch project, with no company owning or controlling its development ｣ https://itsfoss.com/news/netherlands-dawo-initiative/ #nixos #opensource #icc

    🫣 I asked Muse to archive the files it could see and send them to my Google Drive. It did. ｢ The download was about 2.7 GB compressed and 6.8 GB unpacked.
