Out of curiosity: What did you do with the 30 kwh? I've only been monitoring our production/consumption since spring, and I'm trying to learn what to expect. So far, if we do "nothing", our household consumes about 8-9 kWh. With cooking/baking, washing, power tools, etc, it goes up to 13 or 14. And we had a heatwave where we used the heat pump for cooling, and that was another 7 or 8, so around 20 per day in total.

Generated 9.2kWh today due to cloudy weather, best day since it was installed was 19.9 kWh. I'm hoping to be able to load up some more panels once I get a carport built, and maybe future restrictions will not be so stupid. I feel like every bit helps.

I live in a really tiny house (by North American standards) 500 sq ft for my partner and I and our two kids. We try to drive as little as possible, bike and walk where we can. We don't have a clothes dryer. We buy clothes and toys second hand. Before staying home with my kids I worked in research for climate change, public health and sustainability policy change. It feels like a measley pittance next to private jets and oil and gas but 🤷 I dunno. I do want to be able to live with myself.

nostr:npub1gmx4vz0z4waf3ff40j7vdy7stdn4c0gne6lkd0pwtae46lzph4mqajatcq that's awesome! I think if I remember correctly the average for an American household is 30kwh/day.

I know the biggest items that consume the most energy are clothes dryers and heating and cooling units. So, if there are ways to use those less that would be a good next step. Keep up the fight to be more resilient!

nostr:npub1gmx4vz0z4waf3ff40j7vdy7stdn4c0gne6lkd0pwtae46lzph4mqajatcq Have you seen anyone who has two brain cells to rub together who is advocating for any sort of use of AI? I'm not seeing it. It's an interesting point to ponder.

Don't call AI workers, that implies they're getting paid, they're slaves.

I also wonder companies who replace workers with AIs think will buy their products and services? Because humans wont have any money and the AIs don't need anything.
