I am really tired. Next week is quite rainy so I will take a break. But after that I have to go back and finish the roof putting the isolation and the dirt. I think I will let the last wall (the front one) for the next summer. Cold weather is coming and is not so nice to wash in a 1-3º river's water temperature with the wind on your neck... I am a strong man but not so strong :)

I really like seeing the updates and appreciate the impact of the weather on your project. Small steps. And don’t pet the squirrels…. they are just miniature raccoons with better PR.

Assuming you walk the trail on your way in and out - has the ‘Bitcoin this way’ treasure been claimed yet?

has the ‘Bitcoin this way’ treasure been claimed yet?

hahahaha no way! That trail I walk to "my citadel" has like maybe 1 tourist per week. Not so "habituated" so much, is more of a ranchers trail, with their cows. Where I put that "bitcoin" sign it is on another trail, more used by tourists.

don’t pet the squirrels

I have a nice one on my place and I am trying to "domesticate" it. But is not so easy... The wild boar is more friendly now, he came sometimes during the night and eat the scraps I left for him. I like him, he's still shy and not making damages, so doesn't bother me too much. I would like to have him as a pet.

Squirrels are super smart and can learn some neat tricks…. pretending to be domesticated could be one of them. That’s how they get siggy.

And then they will steal your beer and shit on your porch.

Pet boar would be cool. I couldn’t imagine it without an apple in its mouth rotating on a spit :D

Blast from the past. I recall Tomas’ tutorial on rendering that image was incredible.

Cold water is survivable, as long as you keep moving. The civilisation's various habits¹ have conditioned us all poorly.

standing under a jet of warm water to rinse away soap, marinating in a warm tub, yakking in a sauna rather than stacking in a saloon, ... ↩

yeah I know, I usually take a bath in cold river and keep my blood flow strong, but when you get out in a fucking chill wind ... trouble is coming fast. And I cannot afford to be sick when I have so much work to do before winter.

You might reconsider the word "bath"; rivers are not a confined reservoir...

I don't have any better verb to suggest, beyond "dunk", although you probably mean the complete washing ritual rather than just a quick reminder of mortality.

your replies sounds like a fucking shitGPT. Are you one of them?

I'll ignore the entire saloon for the remainder of the day; as far as I'm concerned, you're not one of them, either.

People are shit, btw. Bitcoin is no panacea for civilisation being a corrupting influence, regardless of whether your curriculum favored either "Professor" McKenna or Kaczynski.
