I lived for two years in Cameroon when I was a kid (around 4-5 years old), we were regularly spending time with another family who had kids and the same age.

Fast forward 15 years later, I’m 19 entering university in a totally new city in France. The first day every student is sitting in the amphitheater and they call the name of every student.

When they call the last name of the person close to me I recognize the name so I use it as an ice breaker to start a conversation saying that I knew a family with his name in Cameroon when I was a kid … He says that yeah he lived in Cameroon as a kid at the same time as I did, so here we go we found each other again 15 years later !

Don’t forget ISO216 for paper size. It does not make sense that the US is still using “letter” and “legal” paper size.

Composing is really easy once you understand one basic rule: if it smell you have to much humid nitrogen.

Add a good amount of carbon to it and the smell will be gone the next day. Carbon can be dry leaves, cardboard, wood … Usually “brown” material.

The is the exact same thing in dry toilet or chicken coop, if it smell bad add some carbon to it to bring back the balance between nitrogen and cardboard.

One word: privatization

I’m doing that and generally the next step after that is : “OK, can you do it again and this time DO NOT CLOSE THE ERROR POPUP so we can get information on what is happening”

Plus your probably save on gas too.

Same thing, I’m mostly using the GPS on my phone but unless I try to always carry a paper map with me as a safety.

On the other hand I did took care of a pool for a while, it was in a villa that my in laws owned.

We did a few things that helped lowering the maintenance cost and the pool was pristine.

First thing is a salt chlorinator. It keeps a constant (low) chlorine level so the pool stays clean, there is no more chlorine smell and you only need to top up salt after too much rain.

Then we were using hardware store muriatic acid to bring the pH up and baking soda to control alkalinity. We still went to the pool store to get productd for the calcium hardness and cyanuric acid.

The last thing is a bit more involved but this is what made the biggest difference on the bill is to replace the pump with a DC pump directly connected to refurbished solar panels, no batteries, no inverter. This way when there is a lot of sun the pump is running a lot, a little sun and the pump is running a little.

It’s perfect since the amount of algae development is proportional to the amount of sunlight. There is almost no electronic in the system, just a extremely reliable DC pump and solar panels that can last for decades, I found that to be a great low-tech solution.

However we were in a tropical country, I have no idea if this would apply in another climate.

This was my criteria for buying a house : no pool !

I’m using both a the same time, one tab, two space, another tab…

This way everyone is happy.

No,

There is all the backup of all my family pictures in the drives.

If something happens to me I want to make due that they will have access to it.

I never saw this video but I knew it was going to be technology connection before clicking on the link.

I don’t know if we can call it chemistry but quenching steel.

In high school I was doing blacksmithing and so quenching the blade was part of the process, probably my favorite part.

Heating the blade above 800°C and dipping it in oil, with the oil instantly catching fire was always very dramatic.

I don’t think they are available in the US but the Suzuki Jimny is the perfect off-road vehicle for me.

It’s an extremely fun vehicle to drive!

I would say it’s more like American English compared to Scottish English.

On paper there is few idioms that are different but in practice the accent difference range from “few interesting intonation there and there” to “barely intelligible for someone who is not used to it”

I was doing some blacksmithing in high school, mostly knifes.

When reaching 800°C steel is not magnetic anymore, it’s also a good temperature to start forging the steel. So I needed a atrong magnet to know when the steel was hot enough, I used what I have available: a hard drive magnet.

It felt quite “mad-maxy” to disassemble a broken hard drive to use it as a tool to forge knifes
