I just made my $1000 Rivian reservation. First time I have paid to be a sales lead. Curious how long of a wait until a Rivian sales rep contacts me to see if I am qualified to pay cash for my new $100,000 pickup truck.

It is with a heavy heart that I report the passing of Solar Pioneer Carol Judd, co-founder of InterIsland Solar in Hawaii.

We filmed this footage in 2016 for the upcoming documentary film release of "Solar Roots - the Pioneers of PV”. The love between Carol and Cully is evident and their message of helping the world with solar energy has inspired me in the work I do every day.

Rest In Peace Carol, and thank you for leading the way

@mur2501 @ner Twitter and FB are run by megalomaniacs that prioritize profits over the public good. I was upset over the horrible cambridge analytica scandal, but Leon Skum has surpassed the depravity of Mark Suckerberg with his support of racist right wing philosophies. It seems like doing good is a foreign concept to those that run social media. This is why I am intrigued by Mastodon. The fact that no one billionaire controls the platform makes me hopeful that social media has a future.

Cancelled my Twitter account two days ago. I refuse to be a witness to that sheet show

@oatmeal 😂 So true, Would love to see a comic with FB and TW as dumpster fires overseen by Zuck and Musk and the Boston Dynamic robot makes fun of them for being too robotic.

@oatmeal I just joined Mastodon and you are the first account I have followed. I love your work!

@BE I work in the solar industry and do care about sustainability. However, like you, I am disappointed with most of the people that work in the industry that fail to grasp the importance of reduce/reuse/recycle and sustainability in electricity use.

Feel free to inquire on any questions for your off grid requirements and I will answer as best possible.

@ner thanks @ner. Hope this is a better experience than FB or TW. Not a high bar, but fingers crossed.

New to Mastodon and Qoto. I work in the solar industry with focus on solar+storage design, codes/standards, permitting, and advocacy. I also helped make a documentary film called "Solar Roots - the Pioneers of PV" that tells the true story of the birth of an industry.

Hello Qoto, just joined. Looking forward to figuring out Qoto and Mastodon :)
