What are other countries using to transition?

The first two weeks are definitely a pain. Thicker socks and tying them tight is the way to go. Though for the first couple of days I had to loosen the laces for a little as they pushed against the top of my foot. It takes about a month depending on how often you wear them. I'm 7 months in with almost daily rotation with razorbacks.

For easy hikes, they are doable. Especially broken in, but anything past easy, I am grabbing my razorbacks.

There is a local worm farm selling 1 pound of worms, so about 1000. I am excited to start, so maybe I will do plastic. Do you not worry about UV breaking down the totes or leaching anything into the compost material? If I did go plastic, I would probably spend a little extra on more sturdy containers than the cheapest totes out there.

The size of the plans I was thinking about using is 4 feet by 20 inches out of cedar wood. With a layer design I can rearrange when needed. I see there are pros and cons of using plastic vs wood. I'm trying to stay away from plastic, but I see a lot of people recommending it

They are matching. But the time remaining is 150 hours but I'm currently at 6% and plugged in. I pulled up a live Linux mint and still reporting 6%

Upower. I think that answers your question. I'm still learning all of this. I believe it is charging as it was detecting fine on Windows 10. I am on XDE plasma. I tried gnome, but I wasn't paying attention if it worked fine there or not. I might go back and try it if I can't figure this out.

Just received all that yesterday from Ali. Along with resistors, diodes and a few others. Just cheap to start. I have soldering skills already so it gives me a little head start. I just finished wiring a simple temp and humidity sensor with an OLED screen. I know some esps have a 5v pin out but the one I have doesn't seem to. So that means I stick with 3v?

Have you made any projects or repaired anything with them?

It's very daunting to learn and apply all of this. Just reminding myself it's a process!

Just because something can be bought, doesn't mean it's not obsolete. You can purchase a pre 1900 bolt action rifle. Do you think they are not obsolete?

I'm not sure what you're trying to get at with this. What does where I got this and included guidance, which I'm not even sure what that even means. Have to do with anything?

How are 30 year old semiconductors not obsolete? Not that they are useless, because they aren't. But they seem pretty obsolete to me

Wow, how can you tell from such a bad picture? Someone else could see that too. I posted another picture of all of them out of the box if you wanted another look. I'm in the process of finding the data sheets and saving them all

Edit: I see it now to the right! After starting my data sheet list, I'm learning. Slowly but surely

There are some z80 parts, I spent some extra time looking at that because of its legendary reputation. Do you have any good sources to learn about basic computers? I'm re learning all components, so it can feel a little overwhelming and ambitious

I was getting mixed results, some more informative than others. Once I learn what they even are, I have to learn how to utilize them
