This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

In China the public bins have solar panels so at night you can see the holes. (lemmy.zip)

The solar powered bins in Denmark aren't lighted, but they have built-in trash compactors so they don't need to be emptied as often.

I'm guessing this is also the case in the image. Adding LEDs seems trivial after adding a solar panel and a trash compactor
