Topics around green technology and practices that actually work, not the green-washing stuff, and getting off the addition to fossil fuels before we wreck this little ball of dirt we call Earth.

Rules

Be civil, kind, and respectful. If we need more rules we will make them, but it boils down to those three.

idk what you're getting into, but my older micro USB cables are dying from heavy use on the wires and aging wire coating. I'm slowly running out.

My newer devices came with small USB C cables and I think I have enough of those, but the long ones are rare and I need those too.
