In your opinion, what’s a good example of a well written Solarpunk story? How about another one that is at least well known in pop culture?
I’d say “Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind” could be one good example. Perhaps a little more post-apocalyptic, but it’s got all the markings of positive change, societal sustainability, and environmentalism, along with futuristic sci-fi world building. Both the anime and manga are fantastic, but I guess not too prominent in Western pop culture.

Just like modern cars… I wish there was some kind legislation that would limit phone-home telemetry to emergency service telecommunication frequencies, and be opt-in only. That way any OEM operating under commercial cellular frequencies would thus be unlicensed, and subject to FCC violations and import bans. Like what OnStar was originally pitched as; only auto dialing to 911, and 911 only, if you were unresponsive after airbags deployed. OEM couldn’t use the telecommunication frequencies for anything other than networking with emergency service endpoints on the same VLAN.
Anything recorded by the vehicle would be required to stay on the vehicle due privacy regulations, like the black box recorder for warranted forensic investigations. OTA updates could also be distributed offline for users to download and flash via USB, like any motherboard bios, so transactions would be write only.

What about a hyperspace bypass?

Are you subscribed to both comic strips and science memes as well? Great communities.

When keeping skeletons in one’s closet doesn’t immediately imply what you think it does:
- “Honestly officer, they’re only redundant backups. Just some copies of the homo sapien genome…”
- “Save it for the judge, you bastard.”
- “Alright, you can confiscate my closet, but I practice a 3-2-1 backup strategy, and you’ll never find them all!”

I wonder if they were specimens that were ideally fossilized, but only in a portion of a tectonic plate that was eventually pushed below the mantle and liquefied into molten lava.
Exotic skeletons from hundreds of hyper localized species, all pristinely preserved in so much detail miraculously for millions of years due, only to eventually turn into very hot rock just before ever returning to the near surface for paleontology discovery.
Time on earth makes for very lossy data archive. Ohhh, the entropy!
