A HISTORIC MILESTONE: For the first time, solar power generated more electricity globally than nuclear, making it the world’s 4th largest power source. In just 5 years, solar output nearly tripled—from 79 TWh (Apr 2020) to 233 TWh (Apr 2025). The energy transition is speeding up. @ember-energy.org

We used to have a reel mower and it was great. But these days we use an electric weed whacker or even just clippers on the tiny vestiges of lawn that remain after over a decade of me saying "I'm sure I can find a place for this cute plant!" We also only cut that bit of lawn 1-2 times a year.
