@OldCrankyFuck @BowTiedBroke You state this with confidence of someone who's drilled. Hmmm...

@BowTiedBroke If you didn't hit at 600', you're going to be deeper than 900'. My guess is 925'.

Okay screw it. Closest guess gets a free weekend stay with a guest at one of my new build cabins once they are done. One guess per person. If multiple guesses hit same number, spinning dart board throw will pick the winner. (Just like the Husqvarna contest).

@windycityiggy @BowTiedBroke Said they went to 600 and no agua...Sorry you missed that part.

@BowTiedBroke 720 ft. Hope I'm overshooting for your sake.

@sunfellow @BremerDiet61982 @zachariaspro David, I was replying to a comment that dismissed ECDO theory w/o any references. I have read a lot on ECDO now, and would love for the theory to be proven wrong, even though it's really looking plausible at this point.

@BremerDiet61982 @sunfellow I look forward to your exhaustive research papers, references, and inferences. I would love for you to be correct here, please share your work on this. Unfortunately, anyone can say anything these days, you don't seriously make a statement like this w/o evidence.

@sunfellow We know that the earth is overturned by numerous flood traditions worldwide, even 1Enoch is witness. And I can name the laws of nature for it. Furthermore, many traditions report an earth without oceans before the flood. This means that ECDO is invalid. #Flood

@PhiloTechJRN What I see going forward, after reading all of your posts, excellent thread btw, is that renewables should be scaled to power the entire grid with FIRM backup power. This would minimize energy running costs, while also minimize emissions in power gen.

Why does the US need 1,434 GW of power plants for 800 GW of peak demand? Because solar produces zero electricity on a winter night, and wind produces near zero on a cold still morning. Every grid needs FIRM capacity — gas, nuclear, hydro — equal to 115% of peak, available on command. Today's batteries last 4 hours. A winter storm lasts 7–14 days. So grids run two fleets: ☀️ Cheap electrons: solar + wind generate low-cost GWh when available 🏭 Insurance: firm GW capacity for when they're not Solar doesn't replace the insurance fleet. It reduces its fuel bill. The US is running at exactly its reliability floor: 920 GW firm, 920 GW required. Zero buffer. China has more headroom — but it's all coal, being asked to ramp up and down daily for a grid it wasn't designed to flex on. @AlexEpstein @elonmusk @chamath

A farmer dies in April 2026. His son inherits the farm. The farm has been in the family since 1847. The farm consists of: 300 acres of grazing pasture, a farmhouse built in 1892, a barn, a milking parlour, two tractors of varying ages, a Land Rover that runs about 70% of the time, and a herd of 180 Hereford-cross cattle. On paper, the farm is worth approximately £3.2 million. This is because land near him has been bought recently by a London hedge fund looking for carbon credits, which has dragged the comparable value of every field within forty miles upward to a number nobody local can justify. In cash, the farm produces a profit of about £28,000 a year in a good year. In a bad year it loses money. The son also works as a fencing contractor three days a week to keep the operation viable. The inheritance tax bill on a £3.2 million estate, even at the reduced 20% rate, comes to approximately £140,000 after the increased threshold is applied. The son does not have £140,000. The son has never had £140,000. The son has £4,200 in his current account and an overdraft. The son sells 60 acres to a developer to pay the tax. The developer puts solar panels on the 60 acres. The remaining herd cannot be sustained on the reduced land. The herd is sold. The barn becomes a holiday let. A different family eats Brazilian beef this Christmas without knowing why the price went up. The Treasury collects £140,000. The land never produces British food again.

@mcandrus @avidseries whore, hooker, streetwalker, trick, escort, call girl, or gigolo if male. Prostitute is too general, we need to be specific in calling out the proper form. Sex worker is what people say when they have poor vocabulary, and they should be made to feel inferior.

@avidseries I’m with you. 💯 Also my new hated euphemism that should be tortured, killed, and then buried in a crossroads is sex worker when the speaker means prostitute.

Normalize use of the terms "hobo" and "street person" and “bum” to describe the long-term homeless. Mock those who use the term "unhoused" to describe the mentally ill and drug addicted hobos that degrade the quality of life in our cities.

@braxton_mccoy I just got one yesterday, and spent the next hour pulling weeds without having to bend/squat. Embracing my inner boomer.

Listening to a video about how to improve my compost piles and drinking coffee. The only downside of getting one of those Grandpa's Weeders is you will immediately enter your terminal boomer arc.

@anishmoonka I tried to absorb as much sun as possible w/o burning. I might age quickly, but I love the sun.

A man drove a delivery truck for 28 years. The sun hit the left side of his face through the window every day, while the right side stayed in shade. By the time he was 69, the two sides of his face looked decades apart. It was ordinary window glass, the kind in your car door. Glass stops the rays that burn you, but it barely slows the rays that age you. Sunlight comes with two kinds of invisible rays. One burns the top layer of your skin and gives you the red, peeling sunburn, and it is strongest in summer and at midday. The other sinks in deeper and breaks down collagen, the fibers that keep skin firm and springy. That deeper ray is the one that wrinkles you, and it stays strong all day and all year, passing straight through clouds and car windows. So the number in the post holds up. The Skin Cancer Foundation says about 90% of how old your skin looks comes down to the sun. A 2013 study that followed nearly 300 women, comparing sun-lovers with sun-avoiders, landed closer to 80%. Either way, no other factor comes close. Now the umbrella. The UV number on your weather app was built to warn you about sunburn, so it mostly measures the burning ray. When it reads low, it means you probably will not burn that day. The aging ray hardly moves that number, and it is reaching your skin the whole time. A low UV day is still quietly aging you. There is one real experiment behind all of this. Researchers in Australia took about 900 people and split them into two groups. One group put on sunscreen every single day, while the others only used it when they felt like it. Four and a half years later, the daily group showed no extra skin aging at all, and aged 24% less than the casual group. The umbrella looks a little extreme. The habit under it is one of the very few anti-aging moves that has ever passed a proper test.

@Gratonton @SamaHoole Grow your own meat birds. The only way to be sure.

@SamaHoole But if the meat is from free foraging chicken and pigs, must be much better. I’m sure they supplement some but still

Here's the simple reason ruminant meat (beef, lamb) is metabolically superior to monogastric meat (chicken, pork). Monogastrics store whatever they're fed. Grain goes in, linoleic acid ends up in the fat. Pork fat now runs around 20% PUFA. Chicken fat around 25%. The bird and the pig are, in 2026, walking vehicles for the seed oils they were finished on. Ruminants are built differently. The four-chambered stomach biohydrogenates polyunsaturated fats, converting unstable plant oils into stable saturated and monounsaturated fats before the fat is ever laid down. Grain in. Beef fat still around 2-4% PUFA. The cow eats the seed oil substrate and quietly disarms it on the way through. The pig and the chicken eat it and pass it on to whoever is eating them next. Beef and lamb: built-in detox. Pork and chicken: storage tanks for the food system you were trying to avoid. If you've cut seed oils out of the cupboard but you're still eating chicken every day, the bottle isn't gone. It's just on a plate.

@DrRaiaSD Budgeting seems the correct word here. If you get those prepped meals on a sub, it’s fixed cost. You can budget for them. Groceries, a bit more variable. Eating out, drains the budget so fast you need to be on a fast between paychecks

@Nessakins_ This generation is why delivery food prep meals exist. They no longer have accounting or home ec in middle school to teach them.

“Are you fucking stupid? How could this entire home cooked meal only cost $4?? You can’t just buy a tablespoon of butter. You have to buy it in bulk! Wtf am I going to do with the leftover 31 tablespoons of butter???” Dumbest generation alive.

@blessedtism I don’t trust people who don’t use an abundance of butter.

@Nessakins_ eh, I kinda get it I use some ingredients like butter so rarely that nowadays I just skip recipes that call for it rather than use a stick and let rest rot away in the fridge.

@prairiehotdog @sarahofindiana @junker_jo If you want an abundant lifestyle, I think it’s necessary this day and age for a vast majority of people. My wife started working when our youngest was in preschool. Never had day care for any of our kids.

@sarahofindiana @junker_jo Even aside from the abuse considerations that other people have replied with the simple fact is that the way the economy is set up now the vast majority of households need two incomes so what can be done for the majority who aren’t lucky enough to feasibly live off of one income?

Everybody in the world wants an elegant and progressive solution to the maternity leave problem and there simply isn’t one. Babies need their mothers for 3 years and businesses need workers who don’t leave for 3 years. The only solution would have been to not create the problem.

@_Foolsandfolly_ @morganisawizard Mountain west has had the worst snowpack in years.

@morganisawizard Is there not too much snow still?

i will be clawing my way up this bullshit on sunday if anyone wants to come say hi

@OgadimmaE21 @ChadSteingraber I don’t see them offloading it, it will be used though.

@OgadimmaE21 @ChadSteingraber They have a large amount, my guess is if it goes parabolic, they will use that value for added valuation for an IPO, first. But then it’ll be used to continue to grow the business.

The mental gymnastics that people will go through to think Ripple won’t use XRP… Is truly astounding.😹

@dexterb34908925 @ChadSteingraber That’s a pipe dream. But that could likely still be a life changing amount.

@ChadSteingraber The mental gymnastics that XRP useful idiots go through to think that with 5000 XRP they will get rich.

Three men—Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk—have made my life immeasurably better. And yet they’re the bad guys. Are there billionaires who do not deserve their wealth? Sure. That’s a small price to pay for those three and the many other billionaires who enrich our lives on a less lavish scale.

@bradvanderwaal @CounterTyrannyX @charlesmurray @elonmusk You are economically illiterate. It's like talking to a wall man. These are basics of human action, and you aren't getting it.

@CounterTyrannyX @charlesmurray @elonmusk No money, no leadership, no will, who knows, but the wealthy part of the world can do it for pocket change and it could lead to future trading partner opportunities if you don't want to do it just to save lives.
