  Journey

  There is not a single word in the game, barely any control but the game take you through an emotional story.

  It’s multiplayer in a sense that you might meet another player, they can help you, you can help them or just continue on your path and despite not having any words it just fell like a genuine, pure connection with someone.

  And the music is amazing.

  It’s not just for my home server but for EOL or other issues I used bitwarden emergency access options for passwords. Of anything happens to me my wife can request access to my vault and if I don’t deny it in a certain timeframe she will have full access to it.

  I did that after my brother in law got in an accident and fell into a coma. I’m very grateful he had all his password saved in chrome on his unlocked laptop because if not it would have made the period insanely more difficult for my sister.

  Simple things like paying the bills would I been insanely more difficult and stressful and you don’t need extra stress in this period.

  I used it a few times for work even. At the time I had a usb-c hub connected with a screen, Ethernet, 65w charger, a keyboard and mouse and I had my laptop that I was carrying with me.

  Once or twice I arrived at work and realized I forgot my computer at home … And I have a 2hour drive … So I connected my phone to the hub and work on it. It worked well to send email, use an internet browser, a bit of document editing and mostly connecting to remote desktops.

  Or, the method from “the bear” for tomato sauce: you cook the garlic in olive oil for a few minutes, add the basil leaves for a few more minutes then set this oil aside and only add it in the sauce at the end.

  Brits did this with Spain, then voted for brexit (from Spain), then once the brexit was voted did not do any of the paperwork to stay in Spain despite multiple reminders and finally commissioned when they are being expelled.

  I would imagine they use the microphone, accelerometer, some processing power and internet connectivity (WiFi or mobile).

  Trying to set up a dedicated hardware with ask that would cost way more than just buying a bunch of pixel phone.

  Same for the software, on a smartphone you can just create an app that will record and process all the information vs creating a custom firmware on a custom hardware.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨heat your body, not your house -- using an infrared heat lamp⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry, I don’t know much about infrared lamps so I can’t really help on that.

  However I can give you some ideas on how to improve your thermal comfort for a very low budget. I don’t have any information about your situation, your home, the temperature you are reaching so it will be very vague but hopefully it can help.

  Thermal Effusivity of the walls/floor

  The thermal effusivity is a metric of how “cold” a material will feel. For example stone, ceramic or glass have a very high effusivity. It means that if you touch a ceramic tile at 10°C it will feel very cold, on the other hand wood, fabric, lime or earth plaster have a low effusivity, so if you touch a piece of wood at 10°C it will not feel as cold as the ceramic.

  It will also impact how much the material radiates or absorbs heat, so a room covered in wood or tapestries will feel warmer than a room covered in tiles.

  You can use that to your advantage by

  • covering the floor with carpets
  • covering the windows with thick curtains
  • covering the walls with wood, wallpaper, lime/straw plaster or go very old school with tapestries.

  Insulation

  I’m stating the obvious but insulating your body is the most effective form of insulation. On material nothing beats wool, it will keep you warm in any condition.

  Indoor you A thick wool sweater, wool gloves, wool socks, wool scarf and most importantly a wool hat ! Even if the head rarely feel cold most of the body heat is lost through the head.

  All of these can be found cheaply in thrift stores, if you have a bit of money I highly recommend investing in merino wool underlayers too ! It can make a huge difference, it’s an investment but it will save money on the heating.

  Then the house insulation is important, it is way more expensive but first making the house “air stream proof” will help.

  From what I’ve read we are energy efficient but this is not the main reason why we are good persistent hunters.

  We have two main advantages, one we can stand above the tall grass to spot our prey from afar but mainly we sweat !

  We are extremely good at regulating our internal temperature in hot climates compared to other animals, this way we can just follow them until they overheat at which point they physically have to stop.

  This is also why persistent hunting is practiced by tribes in the hot savanna of Africa, I have not heard about any example of persistent hunting in cold climates.
