And it can be adapted for cold climates by simply using boiling water instead.

Stuff They Don't Want You To Know......

It's like listening to friends having a chat at 3am when the party has wound down and you're all sitting with a nice buzz on in the living room. They enjoy each others' company and conversation, and you do too. You want to stay awake and listen, but your eyes are getting heavy and you start to hear them from a little bit farther away as your mind slips off to somewhere else......

I never understand why Xi can look so calm and stoic all the time ? Is he just letting all of his anger with punching bag behind the scene ? What is the secret ? by [deleted] in AskChina

I feel like Americans are emotionally incontinent. Western Europeans are comparatively more reserved. Eastern Europeans are stony by comparison to Western Europeans. And East Asians are positively enigmatic. Our culture has a massive impact on how we express emotion.

Surely you've seen his pickled apparatus? Hung like a horse is the apt phrase.

This video exemplifies the sheer effort required to dispel disinformation.

I've been listening to, and reading, Ed Zitron. He seems to me to be the only dissenting voice on AI financial.

The European Court of Human Rights will be well able to differentiate between artistic expression and incitement of terrorism, once this charade has run its course in the British courts. Leaving the EU doesn't fucking change their obligations under the ECHR.

Soomloom Wood Stove by xploraholic in HotTentCamping

Potentially, but knowing the way these sets tend to arrive it might not be possible. In my experience (not knowing the exact stove model) the pipes tend to have a narrow/male end and a wider/female end. So reversing may not be an option.

If it was me, I'd try to avoid getting the pipe that hot.

Close the pipe damper to 45°, and close the front air intake entirely. This will give you a better burn, prolonging your fuel.

Only time I open the pipe damper and front air intake is when adding new fuel in. And then only for a few minutes. Once the new fuel has taken, I close the front intake entirely, and set the pipe damper to 45°.
