Shouldn't people ideally get a blood test to see if they're actually deficient in things before taking supplements? Although I recently started taking Vit-D on the assumption I'm low because there's never any sun in the UK.

I could envisage AI robots installing utilities on a new build if the site was geared up for them and they were following a repeatable layout but robots crawling in loft spaces, under floors or trying to diagnose and repair existing plumbing or electrics in old houses won't be happening in my lifetime.

Doesn't Oregon have really nice national parks & forests but some of the strictest permitting in the country when it comes to homesteading? Not saying that's a bad thing if it protects nature but you wouldn't want the government turning up with a swat team because you built a shed 6 inch too close to a river.

Is this Silent Hill or the UK? Potholes everywhere, rain everyday, constantly grey, no sun for weeks at a time. It's that bad I've ordered some Vitamin D tablets, never bothered with supplements before and wouldn't trust half the stuff that's sold online (Ebay) vs buying from stores such as Holland & Barrett. Supposedly you can get Vitamin D from oily fish and some from Eggs but nowhere near what you get from direct sunlight on the skin. Absolutely unreal that globalist lunatics say the sun needs dimming to save the planet, more like these pedo's want to kill us off and destroy the food supply.

Disgusted with myself, stopped the watch at a 15 miles and walked back 4 in the drizzle. Did weighted calf raises at the weekend and you don't usually feel them until a few days after (DOMS) Maybe there's some fatigue building up? Back to the drawing board 😏 #exercise #running #runstr

Went down a Mount Everest YouTube rabbit hole this weekend. Some crazy, and also tragic stories. People trying to go up there with little experience, a guy from the UK trying to go up there on the cheap with no assistance from the Sherpas, no oxygen for the "Death Zone". Bodies that have been up there for decades frozen in time laying there in their gear. One of the most shocking things to me was the queueing/bottleneck issue where people stand around waiting for their turn up Hillary Step while the time is ticking for the 2pm turnaround cut off and they're using up their limited oxygen supply.

Have the globalist lunatics tried to ban woodstoves in your region yet?

Everything is more expensive in the UK compared to the US. These Patagonia Storm Racer jackets are £270 from Alpinetrek & direct from Patagonia unless you want the talon color for £202. You can pick up a blue one up for £180, same jacket and spec but Endless Blue is a 2024 color.

Don't you need a petrol powered auger?

Went out with no plan of what I was supposed to be doing or trying, stop starting, messing around with the watch settings, started the run again 3 times, deleted one of them 😂 Managed to decipher some data though, from previous runs I know I can plod on around 10min mile pace and 158spm cadence. Tried some shorter bursts/sprints and the best one was 0.13 miles in 0:41.9 seconds at 5:34 min mile pace, I couldn't hold this pace any longer. Don't know how accurate these watches are but max cadence hit 248spm and 11.9mph. #exercise #running #running

Pretty humbling starting your sats stacking journey again when BTC is $90k a coin. My first BTC buy was 0.08 BTC for £494.40 using Bittylicious in Feb 2018. Back then I wasn't buying BTC to own BTC but to on-ramp to crypto and buy altcoins because I thought everyone was getting rich, I'd buy crap like Ark to stake but not knowing what I was doing or even having basic charting skills - this was basically throwing money and Bitcoin away, by early 2018 Ark had had its run and everything was experiencing a blow off top. Ark being a typical DPoS shitcoin, all the emissions were flowing to validators, team members and whales who were no doubt already massively up and could keep selling their rewards as long as there were buyers, the same playbook we've seen over and over again with shitcoins like Atom & Tia. Fast forward to 2026 and I find myself once again buying BTC but this time to hodl, there's been times over the years where I've been up (usually briefly) on Alts but ended up either giving the gains away or riding them back down, then there's been money wasted on NFTs, Airdrops that could've been sold straight away and used to buy BTC but I fell for the old "Stake your airdrop for further loyalty airdrops" BS as the price tanks over time. Long story short I've got some alts left but nowhere near the dollar amount I would have had just keeping all the BTC purchased from 2018 - 2021. 😂 Ark.io + Dragonchain = Maximum Shit.

Watched some videos on YouTube to get some ideas on the best approach to running. Although it's been exercise, what I've been doing could be considered Greyzone running - going out and running the same pace each time and probably faster than I'm conditioned for. Only did 8 miles today but had a go at Fartlek training, set the lap alert on the watch to 0.5 miles, tried to aim for slower laps of 10mi+ and faster laps of 7-8mi. Had to work a bit on the fast laps but not hard enough I couldn't recover when on the slower laps. Next time I go for a longer run I'm going to try for 10mi average and maybe work towards going over 20 mile. #exercise #runstr

Any bike #bikestr enthusiasts on Nostr? Been looking at new bikes, originally thought about a gravel bike (best of both worlds) but if I want to increase mileage would be better off on the road and get an endurance bike (less aggressive stance than race/road bikes) All the ones I've looked at come with carbon fibre rims, tubeless and hookless tyres. I've never even ran tubeless nevermind hookless and the hate for hookless seems quite strong on YouTube - some saying it's just a scam (manufacturers saving money on tooling) and some saying they're fine for mtb and gravel bikes (wider, less pressure) but there's no good reason for road bikes with narrower tyres to be running them and even dangerous if over inflated or ran at high pressures. People will highlight the increased weight but I put Schwalbe Marathon Plus Tour Smartguard tyres with inner tubes on my old mtb a few years ago and honestly never get punctures or have to worry about slime. What do other people run on road bikes? Tubeless? And take a repair kit and 16g Co2 can? Or prefer oldskool innertubes? #bikestr #bike
