BastingChemina,

Always use the right tool to remove a tick.

If you use tweezers or rubbing alcohol you will make the tick spit the blood back in your sister with all the pathogens with it, this is what causes diseases.

With the right tool the tick is very easily removed with a very low risk of infection.

BastingChemina,

OSM is great for everything non-commercial. Hiking path, finding a playground, public toilets or even the closest with few benches to eat a sandwich.

But for everything commercial and car navigation google maps is unfortunately much better.

BastingChemina,

I was thinking exactly that yesterday, I looked for a way to have few web apps without using ferdium.

BastingChemina,

Plus the $7500 tax credit for buying an electric car, this is another form of subsidies for car maker.

BastingChemina,

This is what France is doing.

The subsidy for EV is 27% of the price of the car with a maximum of 4000€. (+3000€ for people with low revenues).

The cost of the car must be under 47000€, the car must weight less than 2400kg and it must have a low environmental impact during its production.

The goal of this last rule is clearly to indirectly exclude cars produced in China. I think tariffs against a specific country is not possible in the European Union so French lawmakers had to come up with a creative solution to exclude Chinese cars.

Most of French power plants are using evaporative cooling. Only 4 out of the 18 are rejecting water into the river.

Swiss green party might not like nuclear power but Switzerland is producing less than 30% of their electricity, the other 70% is imported from neighbors, mostly France.

Soooo they should probably be nice with their neighbors.

Never mind, see comment below

BastingChemina,

You are right, I have not read my sources properly so o got mixed up between the electricity production and energy production.

Especially with this picture Nous avons besoin d’énergie

Antoine de St Exupéry is a French aviator and writer who opened airmail route between Europe, Africa and South America.

One day he flew back from Africa to France with a Berber, someone who lived in the Sahara desert. As they flew through the Alps he saw all the waterfalls, lakes, streams, rivers …

At this point he told the St Exupéry that the god of French people must love them more that their own god.

What's your go-to "Bang for your Buck" filament brand?

As I’m graduating college in a few weeks, I’ll be losing access to my university’s free printers and filament. I’m going to build up a home lab with a couple printers where I can make goofy little mechanical projects as well as some components for my cars and stuff....

BastingChemina,

In France I’m buying from ArianePlast. It’s good PLA for a decent price.

I have not tried it but they also have “Eco” PLA at 13€/kg

BastingChemina,

And we get these 100W from transforming food that we find on/in the ground.

BastingChemina,

Yes, it’s also called Natural Organic Reduction or terramation. This would be my dream.

When I die compost my body and use the compost on a tree in the garden or spread it in a natural reserve. This way if my relative want to visit my grave they go in nature rather than going in a gray cemetery full of concrete.

BastingChemina,

Je pense que tu pourrais apprécier Rimworld/Dwarf Fortress.

Rimworld est un jeu de survie et de gestion de ressources, tu commence avec trois astronautes écrasés sur une planète inconnue et qui doivent survivre pour rentrer chez eux.

Un peu comme banished mais avec une gestion beaucoup plus fine des personnages et des événements ce qui en fait vraiment un générateur d’histoires. Par example ton chasseur qui se fait attaquer par un animal, tu arrives à le sauver avec les autres colons mais sa jambe s’infecte, tu doit donc l’amputer ou essayer soigner l’infection avec le risque qu’elle se propage. Si tu l’ampute tu peut donc maintenant soit lui mettre une jambe de bois, soit aller voir un village voisin qui a peut être une prothèse bionique, soit développer ton arbre technologique pour pouvoir fabriquer tes prothèses. Pendant que tu te posait la question de la prothese ton chasseur pète un câble (entre la douleur de l’amputation, la bouffe degueu de la colonie, le fait d’être coincé sur un lit d’hôpital sans distraction et sans voir l’extérieur …) du coup il va cramer la reserve de bouffe …

Ça en plus de l’aspect survie et gestion des ressources qui est assez poussé ça en fait un jeu sur lequel j’y ai passé des vingt centaines d’heures.

Dwarf fortress c’est l’ancêtre de Rimworld, même concept mais poussé beaucoup plus profond, par contre une courbe d’apprentissage plus rude.

BastingChemina,

In France the cost for a doctor’s visit is 26€. 18.55€ is reimbursed by the public health care insurance and the rest is generally reimbursed by private insurance.

There is a big debate right now because the doctor’s unions want the cost of the visit to go up to 30€ !

BastingChemina,

The goal for alternative transit is not to remove traffic jam, it’s to transport people.

9mph is slower than a bike, it fits with my experience. When living in a city (in Europe, it might be different in the US) my feeling was always that bike was the fastest, public transport a bit slower but more comfortable (mainly protected from the elements and car drivers) and lastly car was the slowest and more stressful.

BastingChemina,

I’m more impressed by the filament holding the weight of the printer.

It has cosmetic effects but can also have some more serious effect, like weaker bones, neurological disorder, rupture of the stomach lining or ossified ligaments.

wikipedia - Skeletal fluorosis

BastingChemina,

Hmmmmm no ! I’m not against fluoride in water, I don’t care since I don’t live in north america but spreading disinformation does not help.

There is regions, especially in India, where fluoride occurs by naturally in water in high concentration which is causing multiple serious health issues.

Neurology of endemic skeletal fluorosis

BastingChemina,

Potential Role of Fluoride in the Etiopathogenesis of Alzheimer’s Disease

Aluminium and fluoride in drinking water in relation to later dementia risk

Higher levels of aluminium and fluoride were related to dementia risk in a population of men and women who consumed relatively low drinking-water levels of both.

BastingChemina,

there are places where fluoride occurs naturally in drinking water at higher concentrations than it is added artificially and there don’t seem to be significant health problems.

I’m simply replying that there is places where fluoride occurs naturally in drinking water at higher concentration that it is added artificially and there is significant health problems in these places.

Does it means that fluoride in low concentration like in the US water system is dangerous ? No, it just means that very high concentration can be dangerous.

BastingChemina,

The three core principles of scouting are:

  • Duty to God (adherence to spiritual principles, loyalty to the religion that expresses them and acceptance of the duties resulting therefrom)
  • Duty to others
  • Duty to self

When asked where religion came into Scouting and Guiding, Baden-Powell replied “It does not come in at all. It is already there. It is a fundamental factor underlying Scouting and Guiding”. Source

So unfortunately removing religion from the scouting would remove one of the core principle of the movement, I don’t think it would anytime soon.

Which is a shame because I really enjoyed my time scouting, I think it was a great balance of fun, education and learning responsibilities. But the religion aspect of it make me seriously reconsider to send my kids to do it or not.

BastingChemina,

CF is extremely light, so when you want to build something that sink it make sense to build it out of extremely expensive CF rather than cheap steel like every other submarine.

BastingChemina,

East-west solar orientation is the best option !

Instead of having a peak is production around noon you get a note regular production that start earlier and end later, lowering the strain on the inverter and the batteries.
