Grumpy old sysadmin, #Linux, #OpenSource. #privacy & #security fanatic.

Happily running Linux as my daily driver since 1992.

Happily rocking my fedora at #RedHat since 2013.

Very, very married....

My wife and I share humorous meme's to add some smiles to each other's days. Today she sent me this one which took me down an unexpected path.

#TIL that there are some wearables that generate power. Clearly I missed all of this, it is not that new, but it is interesting. I have long had a solar charging backpack from Voltaic but clothing was new to me.

Here are a few links I found:
