  • It looks beautiful and it sounds like it could be affordable. This kind of thing really excites me.

    However I have some questions about the design.

    Those ceramic tiles look really cool. They seem to be burnished on the outside. He talks about the cure time being really quick but wouldn’t you still have to fire them? Many kilns wouldn’t fit something that large.

    Another thought is that this seems like it would be terribly insulated. Like wouldn’t the ceramic be conductive? I doubt the hemp fibers alone is enough of a thermal block. There might be insulation between 2 layers of tile but the ceramic frame itself seems like it would not be great. I wonder if it would be possible to use timber for the frame?

    I also think realistically, you need at least one large flat wall for things like an electrical panel/sub panel and battery banks. In the current configuration, the small dome seems like this is less suitable for a home and more for storage or maybe a green house assuming it doesn’t get too cold inside. Maybe it could be improved if it was semi subterranean or had a heat sink like a fish pond?

    As someone that tends to learn most by doing. Most of these comments are excellent my only suggestion is to try it. Most Linux distros come with live images which you dont need to install to test out.

    Just download the ISO and put it on a USB and then boot from the usb. You can even make a multiboot USB with ventoy.

    Or you can use distrosea to demo a distro in a browser.

    I also highly suggest using the arch wiki for research. It will probably go into much more depth than you need at first but it will also not dumb things down or over simplify things for you so you might actually learn. Take this doc on what a DE is for instance, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Desktop_environment












  • Didn’t know that the dreamcast version was superior. I’ll have to check that out.

    I could be wrong but I don’t think that the decomp/recomp tools are available for Dreamcast the way they are for n64. Like if I want a game to run natively on Linux without an emulator whike doing things like raytracing then it seems like the n64 games would be where I’d have to start.

    Unless there are decomp/recomp tools for the dreamcast?




  • I like this idea in concept. However in most cases failure is mostly due to power loss. So unless these seprate systems have different power sources it might not protect from catastrophy that much.

    As some one who does aquaponics at home. Here are some things ive learned which you might consider.

    • There is a minimum physical footprint that these systems use, especially if you are trying to conserve power. So it might make more sense to max out those systems in that minimum footprint.
    • Different fish can have very different temperature and pH requirements.
    • The pH and temp that the fish like isn’t always what a plant wants.
    • some fish have much greater ranges of pH and temp requirements than others.
    • if indoors, it’s easy for a pest to establish. Like aphids will trive without ladybugs or green lacewings.
    • Vegetables grown in aquaponic systems simply do not taste as good as vegetables grown in soil. Often they are lacking flavor.
    • something about the water in an aquaponic system is excellent for propagation from plant cuttings.

    For these reasons, I use aquaponics more as a backup and complimentary grow system to my no till regenative garden. Having an indoor system is great in the winter if you want leafy greens or to proprpgate trees for the next season.
