I blogged about my cute little open source computer, the #mntpocketreform, and how it is connected to the idea of #permacomputing.

Permacomputing
I’m typing this blog post on a tiny, cute, but powerful purple ARM computer in the hope that I will never have have to buy a whole new machine to replace it. It’s called the MNT Pocket Reform, and it’s a compact 7-inch laptop with open hardware documentation and a modular internal architecture.

Funnest fact, there's at least a dozen different types of cables that use USB-C plugs with various capabilities, sometimes mutually incompatible and often silently falling back to slower protocols.

China’s exports of electric vehicles doubled in September as competition at home intensifies
HONG KONG (AP) — China has reported that its electric vehicle exports doubled in September from a year earlier as its automakers expanded further into overseas markets.
