The Blink of God's Eye
It's been a while since I last wrote something on my own. Today, while watching a so-called 'perfect Christmas movie,' I found myself thinking that despite the film's overly sweet Americanized story meant for entertainment, it contained many genuinely effective thoughts. Especially in the journey of Unconditional Love, there were insights worth exploring.

Ecofeminism – The augmented reality of ecology
The overwhelming evidence of the IPBES Global Assessment, from an extensive range of various fields of information, affords an ominous image,” stated IPBES Chair, Sir Robert Watson. “The health of ecosystems on which we and all different species depend is deteriorating extra rapidly than ever. We are eroding the very foundations of our economies, livelihoods, meals safety, fitness, and the best of lifestyles internationally. The trade-off between the existence of humans and nature can reside amicably if we chose to create a balance between the two. Statistics show that natural habitats that bind the very foundation of our ominous ecosystem are getting disrupted because of human whereabouts. The balance can be achieved through ecofeminism. Let’s dive into the crux of ecofeminism.

String Inverter Innovations Revolutionize Solar Energy Harvesting
String inverters play a pivotal role in solar energy systems by efficiently converting the direct current (DC) generated by interconnected solar panels into usable alternating current (AC). Unlike microinverters, which operate on a per-panel basis, string inverters are strategically placed to manage multiple solar panels connected in series, forming a string. This configuration enhances cost-effectiveness in larger installations while optimizing overall energy production. A distinctive feature lies in their centralized monitoring capabilities, providing real-time insights into the performance of the entire solar array. This allows for quick issue detection and resolution, ensuring maximum efficiency. With ongoing technological advancements focusing on enhancing efficiency, reliability, and integration with smart grid solutions, string inverters continue to be a reliable and scalable choice for residential and commercial solar installations globally.

Killing Technology. Content Warning.
1. Cyberpunk "Cyberpunk" is a form of fiction given birth by the collision between societal decay and technological ascendancy. It was popular in the 1980s but still influences modern movies, television shows, comic books, and graphic novels, as well as music to a great degree. Films such as The Matrix, Blade Runner, Robocop, Akira, and newer offerings such as Cyberpunk 2077 have kept the genre alive. Its roots go back to the novel Neuromancer by William Gibson, the French comic art of Moebius as exemplified in Metal Hurlant (known in America as "Heavy Metal"), and the "New Wave of Science Fiction" pioneered by writers such as J.G. Ballard and Philip K. Dick. Its aesthetic is seedy and post-modern, its world populated by hardboiled cynics, cutthroats, hackers, corporate criminals, and brutal, militarized police. And, of course, the occasional terrorist (er, perhaps "freedom fighter"?) working to bring down the oppressive, dehumanizing system wherein cyberspace (as defined by William Gibson) has become the Alcatraz of the soul.

How Many Australian Minutes is 15 American Minutes?
The other day, I asked Amazon's Alexa voice assistant-that-lives-inside-of-a-hockey-puck to set a timer for fifteen minutes, a rather benign task. Then, as a little joke, I followed up by requesting, "And I mean American minutes, not Australian minutes!"
