@MisterRogersSnapped Well said. America was founded on true wisdom and a belief and acknowledgement of God. Those folks chose to fight for what was good and begged for God's help. He came through. The answer to all of these problems is for us to do the same today. Steel your mind and master yourself to reach your true potential. Rely on God to make a way as Christ showed us. Be a slave to no one and nothing.

Was thinking about and trying to find an old book about polymers I read as a kid with no luck. Did find one of the projects it mentioned, the Monsanto House. DDT, Agent Orange, Roundup. They were the first to mass produce LED's too. They took a lot of risk, did a lot of good, and made some nasty mistakes. People only seem to remember the worst in things.
@nivex Not all cryptocurrencies use proof of work consensus and require vast amounts of electricity. Cardano uses proof of stake consensus and has smart contracts. It uses roughly the same amount of electricity as 600 homes in the US, per year, globally.
@maleza Here's some good weekend reading while you rest.

@rose_myrtle True, but my autistic daughter, Heidi, loved it! We’ve been encouraging her to talk and she just kept naming colors in the movie! That was new and exciting.
"I think I'd be hurting it very badly if we didn't use it anymore," Trump said from the White House. "We have other sites we can use, I guess, or we'd have to develop other sites."
@Gargron How would you feel about a government, maybe even the US, deploying a system utilizing Mastodon to make a public social network, or even just a .gov instance. I think Trump turning to the Fediverse might be a good thing overall.
@rose_myrtle Totally watching this now
@MaryMamuzich @Lindseyay I read those as a kid🙂 My wife needs to do some tea parties at church to burn through her collection. We'll never drink it all before it gets old!
@maleza I would definitely embed some reinforcing. Wood, wire mess, rebar, etc.
@maleza I really like Nubian vaults, you making bricks? Shrinkage, cracks, and fissures are always something to keep in mind and bricks somewhat solve this. I honestly would skip the bricks and build re-usable forms to standardize your system. You skip all the brick making labor and just throw your mix on the form in thin layers, letting it dry. Notch trowel. Fill in any shrinkage cracks with the new layers. String up piano wire and trowel the outside face for a nice smooth finish. Good luck!
