They have dropped OS support and raised DirectX and hardware requirements over time. 15 years ago is 2010, EVE came out around 2003 and at the time would have run on older hardware than just it’s release year.

Don’t live service games do this all the time? Try running an early 2000s MMO like EVE on 20 year old hardware now.

Plenty of exceptions make that difficult for some people

No mention of Dwarven metal yet?

It is a communist plot to pollute our precious bodily fluids!

Stuff like soup does sound like a good idea, got an air fryer that can also run as a dehydrator, presumably just dehydrate the soup, maybe get a rack to stack it once its thickened up to a puree consistency? Then grind it up into a powder for instant soup with hot water.

Would probably be a bit more variety and flavour than supermarket instant soup packets.

Worker owned cooperatives would go a fair way to seizing the means of production.

Regular cans are somewhat inefficient shapes as well, shorter and fatter would be more economical, but less ergonomical and for once that won out, for a while anyway. Now we get designed by marketing instead.

Some people can’t drive, either due to poverty or disability. But they may be able to walk or cycle.

That is a lot more than a 4 minute drive then.

Going to the shop here by car is by google maps, “typically 7-12 mins” for a 2 mile trip and that is a pretty accurate estimate. I can cycle it reliably in 10 and don’t even have to sober up.

You drive for a 4 minute journey?

This is why I let the cat finish the job

Isn’t contaminating groundwater only an issue of you are pooping near a river, stream or well though? At a reasonable distance it takes so long for anything to move through that it’s not an issue and will just rot down instead.

I have wondered about that kind of thing. But 13 plots of land is going to cost you a huge amount, at that point you can buy a house.

Building it here should be fine because of how small it is, would almost certainly be seen as a temporary structure and classed as similar to a garden shed. The problem is you cannot legally live in something like that.

Health code isn’t likely to be an issue in the UK as I don’t think we have anything overly strict that would matter. Environmental health exists but that is more of a concern if you are leaving a pile of waste that is attracting rats to the extent its causing a problem to other people. Been to events that use a shit pit before. Some you shit straight into the pit and others collect it into a septic tank and dump that into a pit later while marking a fence post near the pit to avoid digging in the same location next year. Does make me wonder how long it takes to rot down, 100-200 peoples shit from a whole weekend dumped into a pit and buried.

Then again maybe it isn’t allowed and we were just doing it anyway.

In the UK this option is still illegal as you need permission from the council to live on your own land. I guess it’s sorta similar to zones in the US? You can only stay on your land for 28 days of the year otherwise. You could probably manage a while before you get found but they can demolish anything you build there and seize the property.

I had to transfer files over Bluetooth to a Windows PC. Fuck that is terrible compared to doing it on my Linux PC.

Do one for bikes? Though my bike has no stickers except a couple bits of sticky reflective strips that I put on some of the bags strapped to the bike.

I would think it depends on the project

Not for more than 28 days of the year. Non-consecutive isn’t a way around that. People have tried and some do get away with it but others get caught and usually any structure has to be demolished and land seized.

Realistically 29 days no one is going to bother you about it but when its clear you are living there that is when they will most likely turn up.
