@sylin I got hifi to work (VR in your laptop, 2D in the other one) but I think it may be more immersive to simply use Star Chart for both laptops — I’ve set that up for now (and bought a copy of Star Chart from the `kentronn` Steam account — $9.99)
ok. paid :p are we still demoing holopolis/hifi?

g0v taiwan friends! is there a repo of the code behind the g0v Air Pollution Observation Network y’all can link me to? talking to folks in a CfA brigade in California who are thinking of building the same thing and I’m trying to convince them that no they don’t need to build everything from scratch

謝謝!
HI Cordelia, are your CfA contacts working with any environmental justice groups? I'd love to connect some dots if possible, keep the tech from being isolated efforts~~~

After the Storm, Puerto Rico Misses Chance to Rebuild with Renewables

Eight months after Hurricane Maria damaged 80 percent of Puerto Rico’s electricity grid, energy expert Lionel Orama-Exclusa talks to e360 about how the island is missing an opportunity to transform its energy system from fossil fuels to renewables.
