Can you automate the search for a purpose?

Some lessons on the use of milk cartons. We lazily did not clean all milk cartons and mice got through most of them. The mice at the cardboard with aluminum and plastic with the dried up milk bits.. one advantage, the milk has dried up. Now I have cleaned 134 packs and are going to use it to isolate the chicken coop I am going to build. Need 250 packs for inside roof of 3x3m. Will update you once one wall/roof has been built.

If carbon credits gets on globally, then carbon removal is a very cheap symptom solution. But it can work for greedy people. Then a shortage of carbon arises due to the succes of greed. Then some companies are going to mine vulcano's for their . 😁

A bit of hoax story to be honest. Two questions come to mind. How is the police able to access camera and microphone? As far as my knowlegde the security of the OS on the phone is quite tight. Maybe apple or Google have built in a backdoor but 5 years ago they were quite resistive towards governments. Also the legislation of EU is quite tight on privacy where cameras are not allowed to be used for tracking individuals. So police is not able to use the information in court.

Ah I also have ahouse from 1930's which is mostly wood and gets attacked from many angles, insects, water damage etc. Most of the time it is 'ignore' to be able to focus on single projects. If you do one small thing in the house everytime it will be enough right 😅

These orange flowers look really nice now. Have you thought of other ground cover plants instead of grass if you are that allergic? What do you mean with natives? Other plants between the grass?

I do not know about drone shows.. arguments posted here are good on ratio, like polluting and the type of ppls involved. But I must confess that all the drone shows I have seen I found quite plain to be honest. Fireworks do still offer more for the senses. Beside the visual, the sound of fireworks is so much more diverse then only the bzzzz of a group bees. The sound delay from fireworks gives much more tension/excitement. The smell is something I also like somehow. All the senses get a bit more to handle which is interesting to watch/listen/smell fireworks.

I think drone shows could learn from that and be way better by combining drones with picoprojectors or combining a lasershow with smoke blasts. Or combine also some fireworks with drones. Maybe place subwoofers on drones and create a sound pallet. There is enough combinations to think of as long as there is some spark.

Aside the droneshow firework show, I totally agree on blocking the egocentric people that blast away with fireworks during a random night or towards people

Indeed, his videos are interesting in that he shows a lot. His laughing makes me impatient sometimes. Also I wonder with an airturbine like that, how does it perform under load. And a flywheel attached would be interesting

Haha, it's an idea 💡

Ive work for a company that develops irrigation equipment solely on water and solarpower. Also we work with smallholder farmere. I am able to learn also how smallholder farmers grow all different foods. To pump with waterpower and solarpower is a bit finiky compared with a fuel pump. We work towards removing the finiky and it is a rewarding goal and the work is very interesting.

Yes, that mixup of energy is what could be done. Unfortunately there is zero wind here. Ive looked into heating by composting (not enough organic matter), geoheat (expensive), and yes battery tech such as flow batteries are not diy enough for me. Ive looked into phase changing materials for thermal bstteries, but only looked you know.

Very good direction. I can could look into this as heat is the highest energy requiment in a house. I heard these vacuumtubes are quite expensive though
