finished reading "The Castaways of Disappointment Island"
Probably the most brutal castaway survival story (a recount of a real shipwreck and the consequent 7-month stay on desolate islands of subantarctic New Zelealand in 1907)

@neauoire @rek how do you deal with condensation? It's winter time in NZ, mostly get it over night as we sleep. Overhead we just wipe it off and give it a vinegar spray wipe a couple of times a week to prevent mold, but the biggest issue is between cushions and surface they're on. I'm gona need to build slatted lids for under settee storage, but right now it's damp every morning.
It is funny to share this now considering the insane price of fuel, but I attended a very good diesel maintenance workshop recently and took down a TON of notes. I gathered them into a single document.
"never have a job, because if you have a job someday someone will take it away from you and then you will be unprepared for your old age. For me, it has always been the same every since the age of 12. i wake up in the morning and i try to figure out how am i going to put bread on the table today? it is the same at 75, i wake up every morning and i think how am i going to put bread on the table today? i am exceedingly well prepared for my old age"

Just so everyone understands the dystopia:
Company modifies a gene. Company patents the gene mod. Company grows "product" with gene mod.
You propagate the plant at scale. They have the gene in your plants as proof you've stolen their IP by copying their licensed gene mod.
They sue you, not for breaking some EULA bs prohibition on a package, they sue you for intellectual property and IP theft and you loose on those grounds because of an outdated copyright legal framework.
