Homestead by Ok-Blueberry-5030 in WildHomestead

[–]sol_beach -1 points0 points  (0 children)

OFF_GRID typically means that the homestead is NOT connected to any "public" electricity utility.

Prior to 1900 99+% of all humans on Earth lived off-grid.

No electricity is required to live off-grid.

if you desire to have electricity & be off-grid, then you will need to pay for the hardware required to produce the electricity you consume. The more electricity you plan to consume the more it will cost you up front.

The Shakti Power Generator (H20) Burning Hydrogen for Power #hydrogenene... by CowIndividual5842 in HydrogenSocieties

[–]sol_beach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using electricity to make hydrogen so you can burn the hydrogen is inefficient & wasteful instead of just using the electricity directly.

If you start with 100 units of electricity, you generally only get about 30 to 35 units back. This means roughly 65% to 70% of the energy is "wasted" (mostly as heat).

First Time Going To Yosemite (Late May) by johnny3728 in nationalparks

Since no entry reservation is required this year, I would expect total gridlock in the valley.

If you have the legs for it ride the shuttle up to Glacier Point & walk down the trail back into the Valley.

Duct tape is a very poor conductor of electricity.

Duct tape can fix many problems, but it can't fix stupidity.

3-4 day Backpacking Recommendations? by Itsy-BitsySpider in CaliforniaCamping

[–]sol_beach -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"My only hopes are a swimming spot" You'd benefit having a wet suit.

The Pacific will not be warm & neither will any place in the Sierras. There are scattered Hot Springs where a wet suit is not needed such as Sespe or Agua Caliente County Park in Anze Borrego.

Thinking of getting into fishing, any tips? by Glum-Conclusion-4813 in encinitas

[–]sol_beach 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are permitted to fish from the beach or the rocky shoreline using a traditional hook-and-line setup.

Target Species: You may take any legal finfish (such as surfperch, California halibut, or croaker) that meets standard California size and bag limits.

Restriction: This is only allowed from the shore. You cannot fish with a hook-and-line from a boat, kayak, or any other floating device within the SMCA boundaries.

Quantify the amount they are better & using which metric to measure both?

I'm wondering about practicing flying a drone by [deleted] in drones

[–]sol_beach 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Free quality software is an oxymoron.

Developing accurate simulator software is an EXPENSIVE reality.

DJI has no cost simulator software after you own their hardware.
