You have a screw loose @mary! Check out the Magneto helmet she made Timber.

Been revisiting one of my older ideas regarding energy independence. It is basically a very large(room sized) heat engine designed for very long uptimes and durability. Think decades. It would use a low temperature differential and have abysmal efficiency, but it could be built and maintained with off-the-shelf parts. All it needs is hot water. Heating water with solar thermal is debatably cheaper than photovoltaics, but even if it’s not, the goal is a low tech solution.

@atyh Starting a journey to figure out how to replicate this and convert it to ammonia fuel.

@atyh Even if you're right to blame capitalism/consolidation, really won't it just give people what they want? If people valued beauty/quality/sustainability over whatever widget can get the job done the cheapest, we would get that don't you think?

When I see things like this, it reinforces my belief that we have lost some wonderful things as a society and they we could be so much better.

@mary Found a funny kid picture! Nice hair!

If you build it, they will come.🙂
Had a nice evening with the family, and the elk joined us at the park.

First post to the Fediverse via Starlink! Not in a great location yet, just wanted to see if it worked.

@mary Nice to stop by the place where we met!
