Kind of curious what tech people own, everything from small to big tech. Assuming solarpanels are a given for a lot of peeps here, or maybe will be in the future. But what other tech do you own that you’re happy with?

    We have a large window in our living room the cats love but got way too hot. Planted grape vines to cut down on the light back there so we can keep the curtains open but still let the cats see birds.

    On the actual “tech” side we’ve been going the opposite of new things to reduce usage. Wax paper wraps, older wooden everything where possible (cutting boards, furniture, wicker laundry baskets) most of which we got used from my wife’s family, those all will get recycled somehow when their time comes.

    I’m hoping when our water heater finally goes we can get one of the new heat pump models. Reduce some AC needs and not need a humidifier in the basement (which I try to run as little as possible already).

      Ah yeah, also keeping most things in the “format” of wood here haha, just feels like much better quality most of the time and lasts longer, thinking specifically about kitchen utensils.

        I need to get more, my last two plastic spatulas broke so it’s time to do it guilt free. All the wood.
