Re: Garden Log
@jp all great info, thank you! That's a really impressive amount of food to grow / process each year, I didn't realize there was even homemade pasta / meats / pies / cookie dough in there too! Also seems like a pro move to use the outside induction burner for processing (and not making a huge mess i...

Re: Garden Log
Wow, 62 raised beds is a dream amount for us. Is it tough to manage the planting schedule for 2k sqft of raised beds? Are you doing an interplanting sort of succession gardening when some plants meet maturity, or do you wait for full beds to clear before putting in the next batch? Also, this seems l...

Re: Forum members swapping trash and treasure by flatrate mail
I have an HTC Vive I got off a buddy that I’m willing to part with if anyone is interested in trying VR. Still works well, only game I’ve tried is Skyrim VR with loads of graphics mods, and it was absolutely terrifying. You pay shipping, and you decide if you want the tripods that the sensors have s...

Re: surprised by change and upredictability
The most dramatic one for me was experiencing mega-fires erupt in the northwest US every year, often leaving my city filled with acrid smoke for months. While I knew it was a possibility, it was certainly an unpleasant development and a younger WRC always thought the risk was from actual wildfires,...

Re: Slevin's journal
Great idea! We usually make pesto with sunflower seeds, as they can be had for <$2 / lb and make quite good pesto. Would recommend. Sunflower seeds are vastly underrated. Basically, pesto just needs fatty nuts / seeds, any type of greens, any type of citrus, basically any oil, garlic, and nooch. Cas...

Re: A/C For Small Trailer/ Bus or alternatives
Can you take them off and put them on a stand next to the bus that isn't in the shade? Or is that liable to cause a leaky roof / be overly complicated? Is it a lot of panels? I.e. it could be worth it to just shade the bus and then wire up different panels to your actual electric system, if it isn't...

Re: Garden Log
Thanks for sharing! It must feel great to eat food you've grown yourself. I have to say that the beans in the photo look green to me. Why do you describe them as "non-green" ? Haha, yes you are right they are green in color. "Greens" can be used in gardening as shorthand for &qu...

Re: A/C For Small Trailer/ Bus or alternatives
I'm also interested in what to do about getting some sort of shade structure vs solar panels. The bus is also painted black now, which is not ideal, but does look pretty cool. I'm interested in repainting it, I'd like it not to be so heat absorptive, but also are about aesthetics. I don't know if y...

Re: What is a good learner car? (as in learning to fix and maintain yourself)
@Slevin - Haha, I know a couple of Jeep Wrangler people. That seems more like a lifestyle/exercise in masochism. I think I could get into that though. Would also solve the winter/pothole issues of the local roads. OTOH, they're kinda shite on the freeway or anywhere above 50mph, though, right? Agre...

I get cashews every so often. Mrs. Ego loves this vegan alfredo. Fifty pounds is a lot of alfredo. https://thevegan8.com/vegan-garlic-alfredo-sauce/ Will try this specific version for sure. Cashew Alfredo is like the first thing I made with the cashews, it’s always such a delicious creamy sauce (us...

Re: What is a good learner car? (as in learning to fix and maintain yourself)
My old jeep wrangler ( I don’t really drive it) is kinda a bad “car” (bad mpg, loud, meant for places without roads), but it has the incredible upside of having a good amount of engine room space, uses about three wrench sizes to take apart every single piece, is incredibly well documented, has ubiq...

I've continued to think on that thread re dopamine / environment hacking and structuring that. As a small aside, to try, I went to decaf coffee to see if micro implementations help.. basically anything to reduce noise on the nervous system. To be determined.. I think the changes like "alone in...

My household has recently inherited 50lbs of cashew pieces, with many more 50lbs possible. If you have any good vegan cashew recipes / uses, please send them my way.

Re: A Journey of Mindfulness--the Remaking of Life in Midstream.
Also a heavily considered factor in the Okinawan blue zone (and the health of japans older population in general): Older Okinawans are active walkers and gardeners. The Okinawan household has very little furniture; residents take meals and relax sitting on tatami mats on the floor. The fact that old...

Yes; I wonder if a certain level of boringness is a trait to be chased in people to listen to. Fame is apparently a helluva drug. To the monetization point… it’s tough. Staying relevant in social media often requires *constant* updates, which means constant development / maintenance of ideas, which ...
