Anarchist tip: if you need some piece of equipment, or anything really, look up if there are any alternatives designed in or otherwise for exploited countries. People have invented many of the necessities for renewable power, medicine, machining, internet - all the comforts of modern life really - in ways that are low-tech, small-scale, often made of recycled or abundant materials, using little to no electricity, and best of all, absurdly cheap

Like a microscope and centrifuge made of paper that cost less than a dollar together, and a non-electric sun tracker for solar panels that costs about 1/30 what a commercial sun tracker does

Great for squats, occupations, communes, mutual aid, personal independence, etc.

Buy the microscope here  and read the paper (open access) of the centrifuge with the details here plus the tutorial about how to build the SunSaluter (the sun tracking System)

While I strongly recommend you’re careful and judicious about what you download from a site like this– don’t pirate books by living authors, trust but verify, etc.– 

the eye has an entire archive of old books about survivalism/building community in isolated and exploited countries that are “share as long as you keep it free”
