@mathiasx I’m into those things and am currently working on my house too. Been through a lot of planning and compromise. Have done a complete 180 from my initial plans and what started small, has ended up being a giant multigenerational house. Radon isn’t hard to mitigate if you plan for it. We’re doing ICF(Fox Blocks) and for years I thought they were too expensive. When I factored ALL the costs in and saw my friend build one, I was sold.

@Russ
Here is a slideshow of the work the medical team did recently in Panama:
General Med saw 1150 patients
208 eye surgeries
5000 prescriptions filled
1500 reading glasses handed out

Overheard:”Glad it’s not April Fool’s, now I can trust the news again!”
Me: 😂

I love older scientific videos and books. They are almost always of better quality for learning than what we put out now. Here's a great example.

Anyone else noticing that EVERY online account you have these days requires 2 factor authentication with your cell phone? Not only that but everyone also has their own crummy app that you have to install to interact/pay bills. It is super annoying and inconvenient. It might be OK if our phones actually ran the software that we wanted but, as it is, they belong more to Apple/Google than to us. If I log into an account from a different computer, I get locked out. Thinking of going back to paper.

@Berrybunchfamily They were out in force at dusk yesterday and one was struck by a vehicle and died. It was a pretty clean kill, but Mary wasn’t down to harvest it. I’m not actually sure what the law is regarding that, but I have no objections to taking food, of good quality, that would otherwise go to waste.

@HiroProtagonist Re-watched this a couple years ago. Good movie, that hopefully stays fiction.

@neauoire @ritualdust @rek It would be neat if you could build that into a storage system. Shims and a mallet might be the simplest way.

I promise it is not "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine", also I used the tool OutGuess to create it.

What do you non-techies know about encryption? There is something called steganography that allows encrypted data to be hidden in plain sight. This picture has a hidden message inside and the passkey is "steganography". Anyone want to take a crack at retrieving the message?

@Cherishingsparrows2020 Yes, but it would be out of pocket until repair costs hit around 15k. If a claim is filed, I expect the insurance company will fight it in this case.
