A little bored???

December 9, 2022 by diogenesoftherifle, posted in Uncategorized

Who? Me? Nah!!! Just an imperfect perfecionist,,, Decided to scrap my past efforts on the efgometer cuz that set up was just NOT working well. Lots of rough cut oak around here so wood wasn't biting me in the wallet. And I wanted the thing longer because I'm not exactly short. Putting that flywheel out … Continue reading A little bored???

Talking about visitors

December 9, 2022 by diogenesoftherifle, posted in Uncategorized

Wish my camera had nightvision,,    I was standing in my kitchen this morning,(530am)  listening to the coffee perk, looking out the window facing my Uncles place.  He has a streetlamp over his and it usually irritates the hell out of me, but this morning, it illuminated something. That wasnt one of my housekats, and it … Continue reading Talking about visitors

Something I bring up in my book on going off-grid is locations, and how most chosen locations for going off-grid are gonna have 'pests': mice, squirrels, rabbits, deer (they love spinach and corn as well as turnip greens, and will wipe out a spread in one night.) and Possum walked out on the porch tonight … Continue reading a dark visitor

Random Acts

December 8, 2022December 8, 2022 by diogenesoftherifle, posted in Uncategorized

sometimes, people surprise the ever lovin' shit out of me.   End of week, payday sort of thing, (lean times, but pay is pay, right?) and I stopped at the store for a couple of items to fill out things for the weekend.  Not much, only about $18 worth of stuff.   And the couple … Continue reading Random Acts

The introvert is kickin’ it hard

December 7, 2022December 7, 2022 by diogenesoftherifle, posted in Uncategorized

Long day today, and well needed seeing how the other days have been halves,,,   Dunno 'bout y'all, but the pinch is very real on this end of the keyboard.  I'm making it, but only because I established my offgrid situation prior.   I have the 'social obligations' of car insurance and registration, and a … Continue reading The introvert is kickin’ it hard

Son of Bossman turned the big ol' Double Nickles today: I'm next, just not quite yet, ya might say. Gave up on that silly singles app on my phone: Gonna keep the website profile active since access online is a bit more intuitive and a whole lot less money grubbing.   Seems everytime I wanted … Continue reading Muhnday files #9374

the job interview

December 5, 2022December 4, 2022 by diogenesoftherifle, posted in Uncategorized

I read a meme once, "you know you are an INTJ if you approach dating as if hiring your date for a job" And last night I caught myself writing out questions for potential future Mrs Dio Hill.   Like this, "  'College Educated' is a null statement in my experience.  What was the last … Continue reading the job interview

WINGS OF CHANGE

What happens when a wounded veteran, a computer genius, and a handful of fiercely independent misfits decide that the best way to change the world is to stop waiting for someone else to do it?

G has spent years flying from a wheelchair, learning to make the sky obey him even when his body won’t. T is a computer wizard with a mysterious past, an enormous extended family, and a talent for turning impossible ideas into working machines.

Together, they build things that shouldn’t exist.

Aircraft that push the limits of what remote flight can do. Technology born in garages and workshops instead of corporate boardrooms. And a community of people who have decided that family isn’t necessarily something you’re born into.

But building extraordinary machines attracts attention.

Soon G, T, and their growing family find themselves caught between government agencies, competing agendas, and people who would very much like to know exactly what they’re capable of. What began as tinkering and experimentation is becoming something far more consequential.

Because when you build something powerful enough to change the rules, eventually somebody comes looking for the keys.

A beginner’s guide to going off grid. how to evaluate if you even want to make the attempt. written by the curmudgeonly author of this blog and his dog
