2 Apple pieces -> tall jar for mixer
3 Apple = Puree (goes to funnel)
4 Apple = Put in juice bottles and the fridge (add water before otherwise too thick, even some honey for sweetening.)
Q. I don't have bottles!
A. I reused and got empty containers from supermarket bin / asking someone on ground level

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?

MY QUESTIONS
? Depends on how much it cost / strength etc... but from advert looks doable / simple / not to toxic for planet?
? As always I'd like anyone who has used to let me know will ya ! ? ! ?
______________________________
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...

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:

Getting raped or getting reaped of your energy is very much the same thing.
________________________
EXTENDED REASONING
why raped / reaped?... because you and others are
- being exhausted of your energy
(brute force hours and company time harvesting you!)
- occupied at work means no time or motivation for outside work stuff- just sleep.
(political lack of energy / motivation via de-motivation at work)
- not being caring for what you think or what is worth doing for yourself or others working in places
(lack of consideration and consent)
- unwilling to participate (helps others to rape others financially) but you feel forced
- for food (for you or family)
- for systematic acceptance to get other things which is turn traps you more / is conditional
- etc
(leverage / systematic violence / conditional raising of the bar for access to food)
Money is not WYSIWYG
(it's not "What You See Is What You Get")
________________________________
EXTENDED BELOW / OPTIONAL
Money by design makes things look cheap to you in the end. but the damage is done much before and cost both people and planet to get it to you 'cheap' and 'easy' as a 'tool'.
Often cheap for destroying energy fast, over-expanding, trapping people inside a country's land mass for labour (human rights),,,
- Exploring oil, petroleum
(land and resource wars, economic domination)
- Public paying for private banks to fuck up investment and ask us all for trillions more
(sickening greed)
- Costing everyone a % along the way and poorest paying the biggest %'s in total at bottom of pyramid
(structural violence & manipulation)
The news said Iran cut the internet.
Here I recommend Briar, an Android-only app, that can work with Tor, Wifi, and BlueTooth to send instant messages. It can keep communication working even without the internet. It also supports posts, which can be synced indirectly. In the security manner, it encrypts all data, and you cannot disable the encryption.
TRUSTING personally is risky BUT needed anyway. We have to allow each other to speak and grow 1-to-1 as systematically we're getting raped / reaped of energy.
WHY TRUST MORE? Because the existing RISKS ARE MUCH BIGGER... and corruption is everywhere. Other people's decision also effect us so we have little choice (we can't keep only to our self with the mass making decisions for us).
It's mass drag-nets vs. personal projects and progress away from system

PHRASE: 'German efficiency' as a description.
Would it offend you if it is meant as a compliment to German (or any cultures) previous engineering success and cultural aspect of getting things done while also meaning in a human concept 'cutting out' of the more human forms of things like emotional intelligence, empathy, more-human / non-engineering forms of consideration?
3 people voted 'Mostly not offended'
0% Mostly offended (comments welcome)
100% Mostly not offended (comments welcome)
The more sincere you are the more it can have the opposite effect.
Sincere people can seem to be in the spectrum of desperate or suspicious (or whatever someone listen feeds it into so could be many things) ... so even if being sincere is a bit true and even cringe (or whatever) without testing or being a bit strong it's sad to have that checking-out by people.
It's like over-powering people with un-extreme sincerity !
(or maybe it's extreme for them- who knows if they don't say) !
Sincerity is a regular way to push people away... lol so weird (I blame others for not testing / going further / being a chicken)
hmm... where's that chicken emoji icon? (oh yeah it doesn't help to call people chicken either, they fly away faster!)
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).
Podcast Examples:
1. Gary Ackerman's thoughts on AI
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111867522723922385
2. The Little Prince book
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111845561003150354
3. Fantasy genre from a fan's perspective
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111845709367492677
I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
