Looks a bit like the transporter from Dune
Every part of the plant except the "berry" (it isn't berry) is toxic.
I want to try eating it but I heard that it isn't that good.
Raspberry pi with Android TV?
At least the final assembly is done in UK.
I think that at this point they are more of a zombie company than anything else.
Nothing inovative or revolutionary and overpriced for normal people. Even professional teams don't use their components. Only some posh people stuck with them just for the brand name and their business isn't set up for it.
Most of the ones run here don't have batteries. It is running on wires only - with battery trolley bus you need bit different wires so you can put the "antenna" up and down when needed. And since the network was built in 50s it didn't made sense to buy the partial ones until few years ago.
But I get the appeal of the ebus it just sounds cheaper. One city I won't name started to build trolley bus network again after they got rid of it in 70's (because of metro construction and expansion of trams), but they just doing it bit idiotically by wanting to have like 30% of it on wires and rest run on batteries.
Why? Because the infrastructure is just more expensive upfront.
Will it work? Nobody knows, people that are building it lobby to get it up to at least 50/50 then it is maybe just feasible.
I think that roads and buses have place in the transportation but you just need more options not just that.
I am for electrification but I just can't get behind electric buses.
My city made some study last year and the best way forward in terms of public transport is expansion of trolley bus network. With batteries and constant use it just doesn't make much economic sense. If you can build the wiring it is much better in long run. You don't have to have 100% coverage, 70+% is enough for partial battery powered trolley bus, then it starts to be economically feasible in the operating cost sense.
Also they will need to build some kind of metro system - probably as an extension of commuter trains.
Thanks, much better than trying to piece it together from video!
I wanted to make it again but didn't got to it, I think I wanted to cut the sugar a bit it was too sweet for me. Also I wanted to try some different beers to see how it impacts the taste.
I tried making butter beer, which is real thing that was sometimes made, but it probably isn't what you think.
It is more of hot wine style drink. I think someone made yt video that I used as instructions. Yes it is less alcoholic because you heat the beer (which is the base of the drink) and mix in sugar, butter and some other stuff I don't remember.
I think that it was quite good and could be made in 20min, really good for the colder evenings. I would suggest some neutral tasting beer as a base, I used some store bought lager if I remember correctly - most of the taste is from the other stuff there.
What about some spreadsheet where everyone can add time/date and game that he wants to play.
Than everyone can see the options and vote/add themselves to the event he wants to go. Than you can send group emails with information and calendar event file.
I think that something like this can be put together with nextcloud and email bot.
I already don't know what's in it, few varieties of currants, apricots, now I added red and white grapes and some other things added during last two months I don't remember.
It got this overpowering red colour (probably from the currants) that stains everything so that's the colour it will have at the end, the smell is mostly fruity, little bit too much of a mix of everything.
So half of the jar is done another half is waiting for the fall season fruits.
So I managed to find 80% food grade alcohol (it was harder than you might thought) and started the all season maceration.
Basically every fruit that I will get or pick I just put few pieces there and let it sit, the tasting will be at Christmas or sometime in December. First layer is red currant, I already used it for some maceration so I know it starts good.
So I am on big tour. And I should finally post some pics here even though most of them are on mastodon. If you want to check it: https://f.cz/@plactagonic I try to post pretty regular updates from my tour there.
First week I rode from Madrid to Valencia, I had planned to take Camino del Cid but I naively expected that it will be signed. So I quickly get on my own route and had a blast with some hilly sections.
This is Albarracín, nice medival village with castle.
In Valencia I stayed for 2 days to get some rest and at least look around the city center. But it is a pain sometimes to get in and out of cities here, from Madrid I had to take a train and here it was on sometimes missing cycle path. You just see all the faces of the country when you are bikepacking.
When I was leaving Valencia I met Sejdeborns (they have a YT channel) on their tour from Sweden to Morocco. They were on tandem bike so they took path along the coast, let me tell you don't take the path it is ugly I took only one pick when it was just missing. Go inland!
From there it was pretty much on Via Verde routes that are made from old railways so I have lots of pics of tunnels.
And through olive orchards so it became quite repetitive. I decided in Alicante that because of high headwind forecasted I should go inland. Yeah even inland there was headwind... 3 days of it. But I grinded through this inconvenience and now I am in Seville and next week I should be in Portugal where I will take the Atlantic coast route.
So thats what is going on right now on my tour, it is just a sneak peek, as I write in the beginning I try to post dayli on mastodon. I can tag it that it appears in this community but from my experience it just doesn't look right (the formatting).
Everything was covered with the "frost" more like a ice sheet.
It was fine nothing broken but I was bit scared when I saw it.

Good luck with brewing! It doesn't take much to brew good beer but getting the consistency in the batches (if you want to brew same beer multiple times).
