There's no discrimination in this refugee camp. We just all bake under the sun equally.

would it be proper to introduce myself based on my politics? or do i just wait for people to figure that out over time?

Seems weird. It's like introducing yourself with your pronouns.

There'll be political discussions. Just jump in and everyone will know.

Or if you feel it's really relevant to state it upfront I guess. I mean, you do you.

Hi

I’m new here

hi newhere

I'm new here 2

where is new here 3 when we need them?

Is Hazbin Hotel considered weeb?

I wouldn't have thought so, it's western animated isn't it?

weeb is normally an exclusive anime related thing, to my understanding

Hello y'all

hello

hi

well i will likely be lurking around for a while at the very least, waiting to see what interesting topics come up.

So, the camp is still buzzing, hm?

depends on what you find interesting.

few people find similar things interesting.

I find lots of stuff interesting, but I only have a few things i tend to activly think about.

mostly "things I would like to build but will never have the resources to build"

ah, so stuff like smithing swords then?

sounds like an interesting enough starting point, I imagine building things would be a common enough interest

close, I would like to build an engine form raw stock but I have no experience in anything of the sort.

well neither do

unfortunately

found some guy on youtube rebuilding a really old CAT engine and thought "that looks simple enough"

lol

the combustion process that engines use is simple in concept.

@-@

well, to be fair those old engines were very simple, i'm lucky enough to be driveing a truck older then me for work right now.

in practice, it takes some machining

ooh

as far as engines go I find myself wondering why we don't see the valve train being done by electronics rather then haveing a cam shaft.

I know the tech is out there and it seems like it would make the engine easy to tune, and it could be tuned on the fly.

hmm

interesting concept

I never really given any thought to engines except for maintaining cars.

that's fair, I kinda want to be able to do my own work on my own truck but the electronics are a bit overwhelming for me, mostly because the wireing is a rats nest in most everything.

oh yeah
