I think its important to state that "bonk point" is different based on if your metabolism is adapted for carb vs fat burning.

If always training with high carb loads, you will bonk rather quickly going on a long ride without any compared to if you train fasted or more fat adapted.


from the paper: "The consideration of fire ecology data and various factors involved in the complex process of fire ignition, combustion, and behavior, in relation to the GBY paleoenvironment and archaeology, enabled the rejection of recurrent natural fires as the responsible agent for burning (Alperson-Afil, 2012)."

But that's summarizing a paper from 2012.

>It's been extensively documented among modern human groups.

Do you have some sources? A quick search doesn't pull up much evidence for current hunter-gatherer dependence on natural fire regime. Or you mean anatomically modern humans?


Yes, Tasmanians are the best example that comes to mind. They had a mythology developed around lightning and subsequent fires and would then try to keep a fire going as long as possible.

Interesting, but doesn't seem to be much evidence they depended on natural occurring fire.

Here is a nice report: Fire-Making in Tasmania: Absence of Evidence Is Not Evidence of Absence , Gott 2016: https://sci-hub.su/10.1086/342430


It was personally related to me that it occurs among the northern Aché by an anthropologist who lived with them and had photos of him carrying coals.

The warlpiri and the yuqui are two other examples, along with certain andaman groups.

Tasmanians do start fires, but often prefer to carry. This is a surprisingly common practice. Starting fires is a lot of work.


Wow. What is your total capacity and range with that setup?


See Michael Levin.


I shocked a lot of flatworms for that guy 20 years ago. Really cool stuff.


You can keep your file current structure/workflow and just use immich as a viewer and search engine, read only.


This is exactly what I do. I have Immich as just a viewer and keep everything in external libraries. This is the major failure of Immich as far as I am concerned. I really don't like "black box" style of photomanagement. I also find that NextCloud has a very good photo viewer as well, which is almost as good as immich.


Not sure that's valid; in my experience Samsung phones are fairly repairable* and have spare parts available worldwide. Guessing Fairphone parts are much more limited.

* probably much more fiddly than a fairphone though


Can't speak to availability outside of Europe, but parts are sold by the manufacturer directly for fairphone, so they're very easy to get hold of if you can buy a fairphone in the first place.

Me saying "a samsung" probably isn't helpful since different models vary. Here's some ratings and detail of repairing major smartphone models though if you're interested: https://www.ifixit.com/repairability/smartphone-repairabilit...


Hah, was just about to write that. Also recommended.


Has there been any significant use of decentralized mesh communication networks in Ukraine in the last years?


To limited extend by Ukrainian army, more like a fallback method if something happens to Startlink. Mesh networks are getting used more and more by Russian army for coordinating drone attacks and surveillance - they use Chinese modems e.g. 70M-6Ghz/Uper C-X-Ku).


AFAIK a lot of military gear works over mesh networks.


beautiful
