Early Retirement Extreme Forums

i'm looking for a car to go hunting. There are no 500.- cars anymore. It might end up cheaper to call a choppa a few time in september than to own a car.

I think all game can have negative effect when you stop being challenged but still keep playing. It then becomes a very cheap and useless way of suceeding at something. I also note that some games have problem complex enough, so that trying to solve the same problem 1 year later is still challenging...

There are a lot of very good game now. I have several games with playtime in the 4 digits. They don't help the world, but they keep me in a learning state that would otherwise require to be very invested in a career to be attained. Most job don't realy help the world either, at most, they fix issues...

They are always available, cheap, fun, no hangover.
Once you know that, you are doomed.

it took me nearly ten years of FI to really be launched in a freedom to project.

I have some experience woodworking, i'de be happy to participate.

I'll do it with my brother, he is a butcher.

i passed the shooting exam. Now I need to start looking for a freezer.

I use youtube with addblock which is great on my side, but no one gets paid.
Only music i paid in the last years was either live or on steam.
Is there an equivalent to steam for music?
I don't like the spotify algorythm, and i'de like the curation and the selling done in the same place.

JnG - I’d *love* to spend time in an urban repurposed warehouse style space.

You'de be more than welcome at our place, if for some reason you cross the atlantic again.

my zlite would qualify as destroyed for most people i think. i bought it in 2010.
It was a very good buy.
It works fine down to about freezing temperature.

Most notable change is that synthetic sleeping bag are now much better than before, so you might consider them over a down sleeping bag, because they are cheaper, and still much less sensitive to humidity than down sleeping bags. Besides that, I'm not very aware of what brands are availlable in nort...

You sound like you already know how to chose good camping gear.
I don't understand what kind of advice do you want.

chimp are as close to us as bonobo are. They exhibit a very different behavior.
I think the sexual behavior is much more linked to recent evolutionary context, than old genes from millions of years ago.
I'm not saying bonobos are a wrong model for modern human

Our brain are getting dammaged all the time. Fighting against it is like fighting agains a reeceeding hairline. But we can compensate for it up to a point. Like how it's much easier to learn a third language than a second one, because you already know how to order the knowledge. I'm not saying it's ...

A return ticket to houghton from basel only cost 500.- it doesn't seem to be very isolated. Also, it is big enough to qualify as civilization. Also, engineering student aren't fierce competitors when it comes to mating for heterosexual males :D But they are a good demographics for any ERE 2.0 projec...

ok, it's kind of cold in winter, but not that much.
There are otherwise all the amenities people asked for. It's as climate change proof as can be, prices are within range.

killer type activist don't wan't you to change your mind, they wan't you to be afraid to express any thought they haven't validated before. They are the main reason it's so hard to have public discussions on politics. I think most activist aren't like that. Even on the other side :D Then, many peopl...

the name killer is misleading, it's more about having power on others than killing them. Also, I think the best game are those that allow those four instinct to be satisfied at the same time. Hunt : Showdown is a good example of that. You play in duo or trui, which is perfect for socializing, you ne...

the six subjects are: dogs, game knowledge, laws, nature conservation and protection, weapons, hunting techniques. I think the exams are mostly a way to keep people out of that activity. Other places do it by charging more money. Big game are boars, deers, roe deer, chamois, there are also ducks and...
