FOOD = SEEDS TO PLANT FOR NEXT YEAR!

Take seeds from your food and just put in some soil anywhere! (worth a try and see what happens!)

- Save Your Seeds (don't eat the seeds... plant them!)

- Seeds go in jar (cut then eat the rest)

COMPUTERS - HATE / LOVE THEM (AT THE SAME TIME?)

If like me you like computers BUT REGULARLY HATE or find them very annoying them this one is for you.

Also just to note it's NOT JUST COMPUTING... It's the people and other things also connected.

COMPUTER DESIGN AND PEOPLE MINDSET = ARE TOGETHER

Argh hello I appreciate the whole:

"it took us lots to get us this far"
"it all needs a bit more time and will be worked out"

but also what a sucker I feel for re-installing window (or any OS) or fiddling... so it taps into this human side of me / you / us also

The main inspiration for this post is the versions of software which NEED some other software and therefore breaks software (usually no start or a crash) or designers takes features off once they know their product is known or useful so they regress or remove things (happening in plugins too for software) and then they use their name / usefulness not to keep it that way but make a limited version!

Ok the above is enough - we all have reasons for software and INFINITE TIME LOOPS !!!!!!

There rest I'll cover another day when I'm dead in front of a screen (most probably installing a 100 versions of the same thing or finding from 20 tabs open why something no longer works)

Feel free to add here and I'll add in the re-draft...

PORTABLE ELECTRICITY - MULTI-USE

Maybe a bit of electricity during scarcity / emergency?

INFORMATION FOLLOWS

From advert (comments welcome)

- while on a motorboat
- while on a boat / canoe (no engine)
- put in river
- hand-powered
- using stand as wind turbine

- connect to various handhelds (phones, speakers, cameras, battery banks, 12V battery)

-------^ Seems doable but more audacious as list goes on!

- Works in rain, snow, other harsh conditins

- "Up to" 23watts power

Constant Power - In an average flow, WaterLily charges most small electronics as fast as your wall outlet at home.

24/7 Charging - The sun doesn't always shine, but rivers flow 24/7, so WaterLily can generate 8x more power in one day than 14W solar panels.

Power Without Maintenance - Solar panels require re-positioning as the sun moves across the sky, but WaterLily can run for days without maintenance.

Spectacular Value - WaterLily can generate up to 360 Watt hours of power in a day. A 14W solar panel will generate 42 Watt hours on a good day. A 100W panel? 300!

Power Overnight - Instead of fussing with your solar panel during the day, setup WaterLily for overnight charging and wake up to full batteries in the morning.

Maybe a bit big individual but for a team of campers yeah maybe...

Funny DIY picture...

I think that is actually perhaps possible... and even clever on that DIY minimal level!

So kettle is easy to replace / cheap and beats gas in some way

As you can DIY things almost from throw-away stuff
(Gas it's very expensive and specialist equipment and labour etc and still doesn't work LOL as equipment is too friggin sensitive ).

Happy to hear what people think if it's not a fake picture and even if it is - basically idea is that the element just warms water right?

Totally for 1 room I think it could work (be warm). Not sure a house would work... even with infinite KW / no money limits but maybe would be warm not hot... thoughts
I love this hodge podge jobs

COMMUNICATION - MORE IMPORTANT THAN MOST THINGS PERHAPS

If you find people can't communicate or resist then things will be problematic in future.

They will get some feelings and not know how to handle / mediate themselves.

Mixing with anyone or any group without being able to talk to them directly is also problem and at the end sometimes everything to a movement to be able to talk and practice it (even a mediocre group talking make more improved socially if SOCIALLY that's your aim).

If it's a pay-gate or not for the love of it - RECONSIDER YOUR RELATIONSHIP IMMEDIATELY.

This includes free soft or anyone not interested in talking in a more socially diverse way.

ALL these coders that can't talk... unfortunately are reduced in their effective use.

And without hating it's just a good measure of future work and social enjoyment too (does more things than just 1).

Without comms in a diverse group(s) FAILING is VERY easy..
... in project
.... or personal interactions.

FAIL

We need brave people leaning towards nice thoughts, not closed paranoia unless you really have reasons or can see progress without people (which is usually not useful as the education and mentality change is OFTEN MUCH better than anything else, even the best software loses to that) so if you can BOTH talk and type... then you're a winner...for the movement(s).

"TRANSLATE" on MASTODON!

Currently testing on mastodon.online... screenshot attached

Many of us have found DEEPL essential and never wanted to pipe any of our data and speech through Google.

I had my initial worries about "no google translate..." and well it uses DEEPL so that's sorted it seems!

Check website also if your server doesn't currently have translate:
https://deepl.com/

@humanetech INFORMATION COLLECTION / ORGANIZING / LOST IN THE MASS

I agree about what you said and at the same time see this as a personal thing between a few specialists perhaps more than collective though sites and people that doesn't exist really help but after can just be duplication / not interesting for others.

I thought "why I would say this or even have mixed reasons" ans some are below (I don't know what I'm trying to say other than some points below)

- We (the individual) are best at doing that work you mention, though it takes heroic persistence (which I think you, I and a few others have dedicated our life to).

- Others are shit (not that good at the above) and therefore best left to the hero-cats that can (as we are also shit in other area or at least I speak for myself not perfect but I'm a marathon runner, don't have kids and other harsh time/energy drains)

- Even if I gave people all answers they wouldn't take it. Harsh reality is people like me need a front end to serve all the fake fronts people have and their psycho-unlogical problems they have as soon as they hit a bump in the road... (sounds like I'm hating NO! Please I just mean what I say... scratch the surface and people take anything and everything against you, themselves and others, like this bitchy gossip scared-shadow-people they are- and therefore from testing 100's of people literally like daily a few people, I come to the conclusion giving them the answer doesn't do it.

- People need to suffer / get to the same point as you / be in your shoes otherwise they can't take your words for it (especially over the internet).

This was meant to be fresh or straight air and as short as possible for what is always longer points... Oh yeah last point:

- TL;DR people (even the clever sometimes or those freedom fighter, mostly lightweights in the field of communication and hashing it out by using each other but not damaging internally or externally- SEEING problems and accepting but still hammering it our / cooperating).
Make me sound like the perfect partner- even for people with ego's but mostly people fall at the first hurdle or two and go back in their box / shell.
