I'm in Fayette county, and we should have been opened up, but Tyrant Wolf lumped us in with Allegehny and Westmoreland

Fayette has 84 total cases

Indeed

There are a couple of good points. One is the state will have dramatically reduced the money they steal from the populace.

The second is more friends and family are on board with self reliance and self defense

I would love to see the state government collapse under their own weight now that they have an increase in unemployment and a massive reduction in theft

Money printer go brrr

@Karlow Alderam Indeed the cities can be. However, I'm in the mountains north of Connellsville. Got a couple acres off the beaten path.

I'm not very far from the Normalville post office

Nothing has really come up yet, it's still a bit cold. Had snow over the weekend.

A couple rows of potatos, some lettuce. Planting corn and beans next week (after last frost date)

I did the first part with a shovel, and then decided to get a crappy little tiller, which turned out to work really well.

Six new apple trees

Some of the electronic hearing protection will turn off the external microphones when you plug in, so you can't hear ambient anymore

Yeah, that's what he was asking about. Some of them do still work

The howard leights will also mount to the ARC rail on a helmet I think

Pretty big price difference though.

I have to equip two people, so even used that gets super expensive

Same. Going to wait a few days though before planting the corn and beans

Potatos and lettuce are in

More profitable to grow ginseng

I always forget the fall bulb planting. Need to put some garlic in

I have deer and rabbits, the result is probably the same!

I found some wolf gold 5.56 in stock for just a few cents per round over pre-pandemic prices

Working on it

Out of space in the basement

Filled up the last bench space with an 80% jig

It's not small, it's just full of stuff

Hehe

I have grown a grapevine indoors, using red and blue LED grow lights. It never produced fruit (because it didn't go dormant) and it won't live for more than a few years, but it grew about 30 feet.

I got my LED grow lights for like $5 each

One of them broke right away, and I had to buy another (cheap import)

Depends on how close the plants are. I'm looking on amazon now and they have both spotlight type bulbs (which is what I used) as well as a large square

Grow spotlight is like $16, and the big square is $36, but I'm sure some internet search magic can find better product/prices.

Non-import commerical ones might be up there, but $50 looks like you could grow a good bit inside

2000 watt 4ftxft full spectrum grow light is $310, for commericial hydroponic

+1 for lettuce. It has been stupid easy to grow

In my climate it grows like a weed

Specifically romaine lettuce

I ordered a mask and filters from Mira safety on 2/28, got the fulfillment notice March 16th and delivered on March 20th. So well within the 4 week window.

Now the next filter order, not so lucky.

Ordered more filters on March 1st, no update since.

Apple trees survived the late snows and frosts

The Constitution has either authorized such a government as we have now, or it has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to continue. (paraphrase of L. Spooner)

There could be many reasons. The one I am familiar with is the extractor was worn out. The new unfired round would jam into the casing that was attempting to be ejected.

I have a set of FAB defense tritium coming in soon, going to see how they work out.

I originally bought the magpuls for my cheap starter rifle, and I don't care for them, mostly because my old eyes won't focus correctly.

I grew eggplant one year, it went really well, was pretty easy.

I didn't grow in pots, and I didn't start from seed. But I do know that plants in pots can get bound up a bit

I mulched a lot tho, just used grass clippings I mowed.

I have used the cloth pots that keep the roots from balling up, but I used those for starting grapevines.

The ham radio technician test doesn't look very hard at all. Found a couple phone apps that seem to do a good job of prepping you for the test

Which level is needed to legally use something like a baofeng? The higher class licenses looked to be all lower frequencies

I am very familiar with the physics of it all, just don't know the law part.

My undergrad research was in radio astronomy. I built some wave guides and amplifiers

We found out that a local airport had a radar unit that was broadcasting out of band.

FCC said tough luck, so we had to get a different broadband filter

Yeah

Fucking tyrants

Legally you can only grow 1/10th an acre of tobacco per person for personal use., for those who want to know what laws they are breaking

We have friends who had pigs one year. The ham and bacon was amazing

I picked up some BaoFeng MURS for around my property. I'll be getting the standard units once the tyrant unlocks the state and I can take the basic ham test.

I spent 8 years looking for property, and eventually found 50 acres on the side of a mountain with the closest neighbor a quarter mile away. But my wife grew up on a farm and doesn't want to have anything to do with taking care of animals.

How did Dr. Rachel Levine transition?

She got rid of her "Richard"

Well, the math is pretty hard for quantum phyics, so that doesn't help

Schrodinger's equation isn't analytically solvable for anything more complex than the hydrogen atom

Orbital intersections are actually a bit hard to do. Try doing docking on Kerbal Space Program.

No victim, no crime

Someone's down, one of the protestors

Did they just cancel medical?
