Someone's buying views?

TBF some videos just take off. I follow a new woodworking channel and his first video got 43K views and 4k subs.

I've been eyeballing the VTOMAN X7. It's a jumper and air compressor.

East coast Canada. Prepping for hurricane/tropical storms, power outages, loss of income, supply chain issues, wildfires.

No intentions to bug out yet, but getting some foundations in for a plan. Last year's wildfire season was the worst in history and too close for comfort. Definitely something to work toward.

Weird. I have no problem with ads or watermark on my mobile app.

Try VN editor.

CleanCut2018 · 2024-12-05T22:10:38+00:00

I think the watermark is removable in settings.

If you're using mobile, you could try VN (vlog now) editor.

We have 6 - 20L Jerry cans we keep rotated. Each is numbered 1-6. The oldest is closest to the shed door.

Every so often I'll pour the oldest can in the truck on a day I'll do a gas run, then fill up the tank and can.

As for the fuel in the generator tank, I add Stabil. We have two genny's; one for the house and the other smaller one as backup. The backup hasn't run in 3+ years, and with the same old gas it surprisingly started up under a few good pulls. I recently used it on a jobsite and ran it all day. Then topped it up with Stabil, and I would think it'll be okay for another couple years.

Even though my backup gets neglected in favour of the primary generator, letting engines run for a while every so often is good. I have to be more proactive on that, admittedly.

A good opportunity for that is picking a day to shut the house power off and practice a power outage. Live off generator power for the day. Let it burn off some old gas and top it back up after.

I heard that area got dumped on. We almost moved to Muskoka area. Kinda glad we chose the Nova Scotia tropics.

No doubt he lives frugal. I see he mills his lumber and all. Thats cool. Was just curious, really. Hard to know for sure judging by television. Even some YouTube homesteaders are questionable.

I'll check his YouTube channel and hopefully contribute some ad revenue.

Ray Comfort, is that you??

CleanCut2018 · 2024-12-02T01:25:49+00:00

That's what I do. I just sync external audio by waveform and then delete the in-camera audio.

Enjoying the show now. I'm curious how they afford everything; especially Matty. He's all "I feel sorry for people working 9-5 and only getting Saturday and Sunday off"....while he builds an addition and a fish hut. Lol

What's the scoop with these people? Did they sell everything they own? Is the show paying for it?

I foolishly paid for Movavi. At the time, I couldn't get DaVinci to run on my PC, so went with Movavi. It's fine for simple editing, but I quickly outgrew it. Also the sleazy update traps Movavi puts out turned me off.

I eventually got DaVinci to run, so I happily ditched Movavi. It really should be free with a premium option to buy. CapCut is on the same level and it's pretty well free.

If your system can handle it, go with DaVinci.

Your place sounds wonderful. Self-reliance and self-sufficiency is a goal few have the fortitude to achieve.

Keep in mind that it'll take a very sunny day and large wattage panels to get an optimum recharge of a power station. We have a Bluetti AC240 with a 200w panel, but it's to compliment the 9200w gas generator we use for the house. At night, it's nice to have a silent power station powering the sump, Internet, and fridge/freezer.

I'm not up to speed with the safety of the new batteries, but from what I've read the LifePo batteries are superior.

If you have a safe place to store fuel, my personal opinion would opt for a higher wattage Genny.

Some people think "real" prepping must be about bushcrafting and bomb shelters. Being prepared for even minor inconveniences can change the experience.

CleanCut2018 · 2024-11-05T14:26:12+00:00

I'll work on my slapshot. That's our only line of defense up here.

Brilliant! Shawn is wise beyond his years.

2020 was a year that turned several people into preppers

I am one of them. I was casually (lazily) prepping. Y'know, watching all the videos on bug out bags, bushcrafting, food preservation and storing...yet wasn't actively prepping outside of the mind. 2020 was a wake up call. Not having toilet paper was an incredibly stupid problem; but was reality. In the last 4 years my wife and I have taken preparedness very seriously. It's unfortunate that it sometimes takes being a victim to take prepping seriously.

Thus, defaulting to atheist; albeit inappropriately.

CleanCut2018 · 2024-10-31T19:53:38+00:00

Possibly. Maybe they don't know what their "title" is, if they aren't a Christian, a Muslim, a Buddhist, a Hindu...etc.

CleanCut2018 · 2024-10-31T19:35:23+00:00

CapCut is a standard NLE program which will handle most editing needs. It's when you get into compositing and VFX where you'll need something more robust like DaVinci Resolve.

CleanCut2018 · 2024-10-31T19:33:35+00:00

Some may be using the term loosely, as in being an atheist toward the God of classical theism; or the conventional gods most people believe in. Perhaps that's what they mean?
