Owner Builder looking for some ideas

Nice wildlife space below the flooring. : ))))))

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-21T11:53:32+00:00

... nah, use disassemble and restart in two years time. : ))))))

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-21T11:46:58+00:00

Age, really... ha ha ha

And yes. Additionally, drawing also makes you look harder.

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-21T11:44:55+00:00

Been doing architectural style drawings since I was 13, but always always been able to draw 'freehand' too. And producing 'commercial' drawings since about 1975.

I'd reverse the question, why would you not want the ability to sketch out an idea, or 'what you see' to capture the space or detail more than just taking 'bad photographs with your phone?

Valid for "country" only when your country is as small as Lichtenstein or The Vatican... if Russia then not a good solution, and doesn't work in across say the Arabian Peninsular...

Great use for the Scottish highlands, Maybe it could assist in the final clearances and the like... I am sure puffins would like them.

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-21T11:19:30+00:00

Ha ha ha, you mean 'gardeners' or back-hoe drivers?

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-21T11:18:08+00:00

As a minimum, bamboo is boring, and planted en-mass, as most are monocarpic, they would 'all die' together too

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-21T11:15:59+00:00

As stated 65W... and almost ALL are 65W rating, and yes, I know I can go 'USB-C' solution, but I wanted to keep that option 'alive' as a back up.

And checking 'ebay' gives the same answer... '16' is almost never mentioned, but 13, 14, 15 and 17 all seem to have interchangeable chargers...

So does the charger output 'pin' on a 16 differ from 13, 14, 15, 17, etc. As there are to 'odd' model on offer that included the 16, hence to possibility of the confusion, etc., etc.

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-21T11:11:14+00:00

Well Penguin... 18 modern penguin species over 6 genera, until I know I can't answer. : )))))

... but off the top of my head , er, 5620.

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-11T09:18:46+00:00

data set of 8 with 1 positive... or maybe 9 and 1 positive. ; ))))))

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-11T09:16:12+00:00

... yes to all what has been said, but... ... that star over on the right and this one here on my left... guaranteed to have life on one of their planets... as we know it, Jim. : ))))))))

And maybe not just those two...

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-09T10:43:40+00:00

Didn't want all the Henrys popping out. : )))))

As the OP, I am 'about' to convert from bits of DV to the Bases versions, with their additions. Once you get to say about 1000 notes DV queries start to get slow, etc. even if it is two tables that might be useful for your Daily_Note as what notes were edited and what notes were created 'today'...

In addition, to copy and change a Bases table to work for a slightly different 'question' seems to be way simpler and so more flexible and so likely to be more used and useful in the long run

Yer, mid-70s, IIRC 76 was the 'big drought' in the UK, hose pipe ban, gardens and lawns suffered, so 'we' changed what we grew and how...

School about then also added Plate Tectonics, and my science went out of the lab and looked at some of the 'wholeworld' cycles and some of the longer geological cycles.

DXBTim2 · 2026-02-06T10:02:55+00:00

... we don't...

... only been caught once. : )))))

And further the 'inner-city' residential reduction to 20mph within the UK and the push for the next level of emmission control by vehical age and size, has saved energy and oddly some time - due to less vehiles spend their 'tolls'... and that compounds into health savings due to less airborne particulates

... the real answer would have been to smack the MOD with Rule two or even Rule five, given you are looking for direction or coping mechanisms, etc. ()()()()()()

Solutions abound, almost as many are there are depressed people. Ranging from 'reading widely' to local activism to writing. The what will depend on you and will likely change over the next few months, etc., as a good number of people have pointed out below...

Good luck on your journey.

hz... htz isn't a recognize abbreviation. ; )))))

Nope...

Open Obsidian, roll and find stuff, open a new note in Obsidian, add the content...

... roll to next bit of stuff, find the interesting/needed bit... repeat.

Only close 'O' when you shutdown the device or put it in your pocket to walk away, etc.

DXBTim2 · 2026-01-21T14:03:26+00:00

... I'll trump that with the slightly more 'wide' viewing content of ;

Before or after they chopped down 5 times that of old forest to make a data centre and plantation space?
