i've got a back-burner project to build out an adequate widget toolkit for the gio golang native and it can do one codebase for all platforms including web
i finally got fed up with how they had continued to keep important, and occasionally changing parts of the widget toolkit inside an internal (unable to be accessed from a separate project) and i wrote a little web script with sed to rename all of the internal folders and it allows me to maintain parity with their codebase without its limitations
so, it's coming also... i've been wanting to make a legit instant messaging protocol like IRC using nostr relays, complete with nickserv and chanserv and an ephemeral-first focused messaging scheme (the chanserv caches messages, and the nickserv controls access)

yeah, the nostr forest floor is just the lack of any kind of garbage collection for stuff that is now orphaned like that... pruning orphaned branches would make sense, though someone could quote post a node off the orphaned branch which would essentialy graft it to an OP... the orphaned posts will still also be visible on the users post history
hard to say what kinds of GC strategies would make sense for nostr's free-standing event structure

i had the idea after my mochi arrived that he would be my ship's cat and i would get a boat and travel a lot, though the finances for doing that are a bit nebulous, and i'm entirely unsure where i would go, to the americas, or east to the mediterranean, agean and black seas and maybe travel up the danube to visit again to serbia, hungary and germany, so, it's just a wish at this point, though the potential practicalities of simply living in a boat are already highly probable at this point, but maybe in a year or two
my email is me@mleku.dev and give it to her maybe we can start a conversation, this nostr is not yet a reliable means of personal contact, only good for public discussions

2025-04-13 14:40:57

i am so grateful for having been able to get myself resided in such a beautiful place as #boaventura #madeira
i wanted a cat again since i had to let my little hochi go back in Varna, i never even hardly got to see him grow up, he was like maybe 3 months old when i left, after the war started in ukkraine
i can make complaints about how the vet did not seem to understand that i knew my little #mochi the #catstr was in a moderately painful position, but i won't, i will more focus on why i knew - i adopted a rescue cat, a little medium hair black female, i called her "bastet" after the egyptian goddess, and she was pretty awesome but she was not entirely happy
i also had to leave her behind, and my mother was kind enough to allow her to stay in the house and at some point for reasons i forget, she got some doctoring and they said she needed dental care because she had a case of chronic gingevitis
my mother reported to me that after getting the surgery, she became extremely cuddly and was so much in need of her lap that my mother found it problematic because she was interfering with her ability to do her main activity, being textile arts, spinning and knitting mostly, and she ultimately sought a new keeper for her and bastet went elsewhere...
this was ... hmm so i think she was a year old about 2008, i recall that year clearly, because i did a lot of forex trading that year and mastered making a consistent profit, and i learned not to be mean to cats that year, after one day getting cranky at her for crying to me... because her litter tray was dirty and i didn't know this but girl cats can't stand to use a litter tray that they can smell their pee in
so, yeah, i miss her, and i wish i could show you a photo of her beautifully posed sitting on top of a rolled up futon with her arms (haha, front legs) crossed looking so pretty
and she had an ongoing problem with her gums that once it was fixed, she became an extremely adoring little girl, and i'm sure that the people who took her loved her, because after she was rescued and i took her and she got her gums sorted out, she would have been a totally adorable little lap kitty for anyone whose work did not make that problematic
girl cats are also extremely affectionate, they need pats more than boy cats
so i'm quite looking forward to when this little one has his dental problems sorted out because he will be a constant pest jonesing for my lap as i work on my computer and bugging me with a chirp every so often to indicate he needs pats
the prognosis for his health is good, just that the level of pain he gets from his nasty gum problems is really quite extreme, i have never seen such a horrible thing inside a cat's mouth in my life, and my sympathy for his pain grew a lot this morning seeing it
as regards to this concept of sympathy, i also have realised that it's a synonym, exactly, for the latin word "misericorda" - to feel another's pain, and the word that is translated to english as "mercy"
so, i thought i was plagued with some kind of autistic problem but i'm plagued with mercy.
i find it extremely difficult to not sympathise, or feel the pain, of other people, and it has been almost the most strong element of my motivation in my life
i'm not averse to causing pain to others though, in my mercy to those they have caused pain to, but i walk the path of peace and when i do battle with such that cause pain i take the path of soft war, i have long wished i could get more people to understand how much that cruel, and violent people are really just seeking attention and the most effective method to keep them at bay is to simply ignore them, not to react, not to fight back... unless the violence is happening in the moment, and defense is needed, then ok, retribution must take place but the way you fight against evil is to corner it and starve it
anyway
just thinking about all the stuff tied to the current state of my kitty and how much gratitude i will feel when his pain is over and he can be my lap warmer and constant pest of my obsession, to make me pay attention to the world outside my little task, not just his needs but to remind me to switch gears sometimes to attend to other things

seems like it would be quite useful for catching what you sent with actual outbox clients, but outbox is actually a second level of complexity above this, maybe you can build this out:
sometimes it may happen that your outbox capable client failed to send an event to your outbox relays, or, maybe you changed them, and messages that you sent would get missed
but your follow list contains a list of users, if you gathered their relay lists you could then make an extended search to catch the stray stuff that for whatever reason (ie, using a non-outbox client to publish a message, or relays down) you didn't find by looking at your outboxes
seaching your follows for their inboxes would give you a second phase to the process and then you would definitely catch the dregs at the end of the bottle

the main problem is that there is no design discipline specified... so people design whatever without any framework, and it's a mess

i'm making my process public as an example of how it should be done, and why the nip number kind number spaghetti is leading us to this situation
the lunacy of the original design of the user metadata kind is exemplary of the way that errors stack upon each other when you don't cut the weed out when it is small, you then have at least two extra processes you need to do when you don't cut at the root, then you have to also cut at the stem and separate the branches into their actual logical structure

2025-04-13 12:14:51

- reply

it doesn't but what i just explained should be a preamble of policy
the cleanup will be difficult if we stay locked within the model of kinds, because they are not descriptive
there's several layers of shit that need to be separated, and i have taken the approach to start with the protocol level, once that is done it's a lot easier to modify the event structure to use a descriptive text for kinds instead of a commie number

2025-04-13 11:55:55

- reply

that's why i'm making the HTP API
it is far simpler to specify them, it's actually basically declarative code
not allowing more than one base type for messages is retarded, as is not cleanly separating request and response types, as is using a bidirectional socket for what is essentially a client-server interaction, and the role should not be coded implicit to the sender or it adds an extra layer of complexity to the codec (this is a bad violation of DDD)

other parts of the culture are fanatically rigorous and extremely bothered by signs of socialistic behaviour though... idk if you read Atlas Shrugged, i read part of it but couldn't finish it but certain elements of the nostr dev culture are just like the retarded socialists gossiping and their slogans of endless repetition
i might say that i kinda relate to ... i forget his name, the train entrepreneur, speaking of Rand, i also partly read Fountainhead and that whole thing of working in secret to do things that the rest of the people would snitch on you to the abusers, i mean "leaders" of the society

first thing that is wrong is the name, this whole shit was called "listener" before
so, you know, basic computer network terminology, for those in the back @npub180c…h6w6
A person or entity that provides a subscription can be referred to as a publisher 1. They provide the product, service, or content to which a subscriber has access in exchange for a recurring fee 23. Subscription services are popular because they provide a source of added revenue 4.
i guess that part about paying for subscriptions is icky to communists

2025-04-13 10:27:57

gawd, this subscription listener thing in this code is so written wrong
firstly, it is using maps, which means mutexes, those aren't necessary for reading, and the actual websockets that are part of the map... have their own mutex on their functions so there is actually no need for this
so after fighting with this for the last day, i'm just gonna refactor this progressively
first is removing those maps and mutexes, that are unnecessary
they are just a lazy way to deal with removing elements of an array, but in Go that laziness means mutexes and it means less efficient concurrency, the array can be concurrently read, this is not a problem!
then once i have converted the lists of subscribers and their contained subscription IDs i can then make the structure common with the http except with the difference of a second interface that handles accessing the actual socket and id of each of the elements, which doesn't need to be done for the http one because it only does one filter one request
the last part is that the websocket has a context that closes same as the http.Request, so i will probably want to unify that somehow
this architecture is ugly, really ugly, like a classic bulgarian commieblock

heh, and probably also... the gabapentin... i've given a diabetic cat shots before and i know exactly how to do it, that would be the easy option, for me, same with the antibiotic, just a vial, clean syringe, measure, grab the cat by the scruff of the neck and push the needle in at the back of the neck and squeeze and done... cat only feels a little prick like a tiny fraction of what happens in a cat fight, and within 10 minutes the drug takes effect, no muss, no fuss
i guess i'm a bit unusual in this because i'm very comfortable with actual needles, having used meth many times in my yoot with it, as well as having actually babysat a diabetic cat
what these fucking cat food companies sell just herds these poor cats into the vets to get treated for diseases they should never have been poisoned to get in the first place
and then, on top of it, this fucking doctor elitism shit that i am too stupid to understand how to nurse my cat... i feel like i'm probably going to mention when i take him in for the surgery that i'm a qualified body piercer and former needle user and i would have preferred to give my kitty the drugs by needle if that was the way they would do it because i'm NOT stupid or uninformed and >_<
oh well, live and learn
poor mochi tho, he's only in this situation because he was stealing shitty high carb food left out for other cats of the neighbours and they don't know better and all of their cats are probably gonna end up dying of renal failure due to their high carb diet

here the people have been carring around rosemary and twigs of olive and today in the church everyone had a bouquet of it, i didn't know, but a nice lady gave me a couple branches of olive from hers so i could hold it up for the rite. the rosemary is such a nice smell...
i never knew about how this thing was done... there was also a recitation of the story of the crucifixion and the priest spoke the parts of Jesus, i understood enough of the portuguese to hear familiar lines from that story, honestly, while i might say that the amount of ritual and the sheer volume of text involved seems intimidating to learn especially for me watching it in portuguese but they never did it anything as nice as this at the protestant churches... feels more ... appropriate, considering the nature of the text

2025-04-13 09:54:16

i'm also a bit concerned about how i'm going to give him the gabapentin... seems to me like probably the only practical way is if i dissolve it in water and shoot it into the back of his throat same as the antibiotic, maybe just even mix it into the antibiotic juice
i'm not entirely pleased about how this is working out, it's taking a lot more time than it should be
well, it will be over in 12 days time anyway, and then he's just post-op recovery, which should be fine, hopefully it will just be more antinflammatories and antibiotics and finally done
if they were properly caring about this poor little guy they would have been referring me to another vet surgeon to get it done sooner, because it's ready to be fixed already
if you ask me, it's clear the reason why he was so aggro at the vet when i was there two days ago it's because he's in severe pain and doesn't want his hurty bits prodded at
i think probably it's just simply not as serious as "he will die if it's not fixed" so they didn't go defcon 1 on it, but i honestly would have preferred that option
i knew right away from the moment i saw the way his jaw and tongue were that he most likely had a bad case of gingevitis and honestly... i'm not happy, i just hope that the condition will not get any worse than it is right now while he waits

2025-04-13 09:45:56

- reply

i actually think i probably will just start giving him the full dose and visit the vet in santana to get the rest needed until the surgery, because i just can't see how it has any chance of not getting worse for him, poor dear
it probably also explains why he has tended to sleep with his nose pointed down too, to release the pressure on it
he's better, for sure, the ear ache is obviously less than it was and his eyes are clear now but that gingevitis is from hell

2025-04-13 09:41:44

i saw the "hyperplasia" that the vet was talking about on #mochi the #catstr just now, and omg, there is so much it's like a chunk about the size of a baby's thumb, no wonder he is having problems with his mouth... damn that vet for not having a slot sooner to get it seen to, it looks awful, i mean, no wonder he is in so much pain
i hope it doesn't get much worse... the vet sorta understated the situation i think, i better make sure his visit is lined up properly, he has 12 days of the anti-inflammatory, and honestly i wish he'd given me enough for a full tablet per day because clearly this is not gonna be well for him until he gets that surgery

cashu is 1983 technology and vibe coded apps are going to be way more buggy than hand coded, and ai is just lossy compression of large volumes of data... and nostr's protocol is also backwards because fiatjaf didn't understand everything can be done easier and more stable with http
proper software takes time to build up, it took me a year part time to build the fastest relay and it's still not 100% production ready by my standards, not "vibe coded" lossy compression standards
what is great about nostr is it is simple enough that it will proliferate into a whole new class of infrastructure on the level we saw with HTTP in the last 20 years, and it's not going to happen overnight, and nobody is going to use vibe coded apps once they degenerate into a feature fest while nothing is tested and the errors of the AI continue to not be attended to by rigorous software engineers

btw, the stuff about the black sea rising up over bulgaria, the eastern region of the country is full of sandstone, there's even one place i saw while travelling on the train to Varna that they had cut the top off a whole giant mountain made out of it, and one of the biggest lime factories in europe is in a town called Devnya and the size of the cable cars and the train station where it was loaded on was epic, i mean, epic... the factory was pretty damn huge too, several really big smoke stacks for the giant furnaces and shit... probably a big part of what glued most of eastern europe's commieblocks came from this place (i'd guess russia has some good ones of its own)... but massive sandstone deposits are clearly from the sea, sand and fragments of shells and diatoms and other bony microorganisms, coral, etc, animals that absorb the calcium from the water and use it to build their skeletons and other things (all shells, etc)
because it was bulgaria, that indicates that the initial shift was towards bulgaria, the sea rose up over the regions around the caspian and then as it al piled up over that peninsula and across the other side it then sloshed back
so, based on that i'd say that when this event happened the direction of the shift was east-northeast at that time, as the sloshback is more violent and rather than just flowing up, the whole seabed of the black sea would have been washed up onto the land

i believe it was 12000 years ago when the great flood happened, and the bones we found are ones that were instantly swept under shitloads of mud, gigatons of mud, and all the air was driven out by gravity pressure as it settled over their bodies, that's how it came to be that even some of them parts of the soft tissue remain, and how they found DNA in the bone marrow, this is impossible to have survived millions of years
i'm pretty sure that the timeline of the old testament is based on a different scale of time than it literally says, and in any case, it even says they called a year 360 days, and that when this was lost it was a bad sign. i have seen the charts that show the progression from Adam to Noah to Abraham and it is out of kilter with the clear 6000 year cycle, for a start, the flood was caused by a magnetic pole shift and crust slip, it even describes in several of the accounts of Noah, that it wasn't just a normal flood, the ocean just kept on coming up and up over onto the land like a king tide that doesn't wanna quit, and then lifted the ark up into it, and it says it was 40 days drifting before it came back to ground, and i believe that Noah was actually living in what is now bulgaria, and the black sea was overflowed with water coming up from the mediterranean and the first place they landed was actually on a Greek island called Thera, which had a massive volcano, and the catastrophic eruption of this volcano some time later was what was actually the cause of the 7 plagues in egypt as they were warned to relocate and went south across the sea and ended up in egypt
IMO geological evidence is the best time marker, and nothing is more reliable than the aging of volcanic stone, and the timing of these events is much more reliable, and what gets trapped inside the volcanic material signifies a lot about the space weather conditions more reliably than the sediment of the flood caused by the pole shifts, and i am pretty sure that the catastrophe described around Babel and Sodom and Gomorrah were actually the minor event of 6000 years and the impactors that hit sodom and gomorrah were the results of the material solidifying from that super-flare and happened in the following 600 years or so
there was also an event 6000 years ago, the most strong evidence of it was found in china, near the Tianchi volcano (the magnetic realignment and volcanic activity), this is reliable dating, the mud is not, dating stone by its weathering is a far more reliable method than carbon 14
further, carbon 14 dating is shit also because it assumes a constant uniform amount of solar activity, but during the 6000 year events, the sun flares a lot more for a short period so this means that a lot more carbon 14 is thrown at us during that time, so it cannot be counted as a reliable method of dating
as for the dinosaurs being a product of this hybrid breeding GMO stuff you are speculating about, i don't think so, the period leading up to the pole shift of 12000 years ago was very warm, from about 10000 years ago after about 1200 years of cold, the "younger dryas", and these megafauna were simply able to exist because there was so much heat and the plants grew bigger and so were able to support much larger animals, and the "giants", or "nephilim" were human/angel hybrids who were obviously gonna need a lot of food and so this led to them destroying most of that stuff, and yeah, most of the dinosaurs, at least the ones walking on two legs, were actually ground fowl like the Cassowary and Ostrich, but imagine there was 1000x more plants and thus 1000x more smaller animals for them to eat
probably the ravenous appetites of these 10-20 foot tall humans were also part of the tragedy of it since they would have had to massively hunt out all those big animals and probably mostly extincted many of these animals

a lot of people think cats are lazy and stuff but that's just because they don't communicate with them... they say a lot of things that are worth hearing that you wouldn't hear from another human, like, he often nags me to go to bed when i should be... right now he's not because he just ate and is quite tired from that, but normally at this time he'd be nagging me constantly

man, refactoring the #realy subscription system so it's modular and can have each api separately disabled instead of only both on is proving complicated
the HTTP api is simple, there is literally just a channel that sends a context from the http request, the authed pubkey (if any), *one* filter, and a channel to receive new events on
in contrast, the websocket has three functions, one to add a new subscription, one to close a specific subscription of one socket, and to remove all of the subscriptions of one socket
i feel like the right way to do this is to make them uniform, so instead of having this complicated scheme, each subscription itself is distinct, but then i have the problem of supporting the closing of all the subscriptions of a socket, this is the main difference between the two interfaces
reconciling these two separate things into a uniform and simplified interface is really what i want to do here, and then each individual subscription has one filter and one close context, but i need a means to have all of them cancel at once...
i'm still a bit lost how to do this, but i'm gonna try and figure out a means to solve the problem
it's a juicy problem and i'm quite addicted to trying to solve it at the moment
i feel it is going to need something different, so where currently the sockets are not maintaining the state of their individual subscriptions, but using the websocket as a grouping for a set of subscriptions tied to one socket... >_< gonna figure this out soon
this is the hardest part of splitting the two apis apart, it's the place where they are connected to the relay's subscription management scheme, once i can have one uniform mechanism for distributing new events out and closing them as one or as a group i'll have it done and then i can put the implementations of the interface into each api package and then if the api is disabled it just isn't being checked, currently they are spaghetti
i hate websockets, did i mention that? they are such a messy construct for what should be a simple request/response

it is, and i'm actively integrating into this little society here, i have many neighbours now who recognise me and smile at me and greet me when i see them, i need to learn more portuguese but i feel like i'm just damn well gonna stay here
only kink in the road is i need to visit schiphol airport to get my passport replaced before december but i think i will manage that
i dunno if i'll stay exactly here in this place, because it feels vulnerable to an extreme event from the ocean, but further inland and up the mountainside is an area i think if i can manage to stack hard enough i can get my own place and build my hermitage and my bunker and my little goat ranch

it's only really been about 120 years of the current system, and prior to that in the majority of the world, power never got this centralized
the odds are very much against them surviving the coming geomagnetic shift because everything they need to maintain control depends on electricity
there's about a 20% chance it happens within 2 years, and 60% chance it happens within the next 12 and 100% certainty within about 25 years
we only have to survive and move to high ground and prepare for a few decades of back to the steam age, who cares about the stupid people who are comfortable with their illusions, reality will dawn, there's nothing they can do to stop it, and they will beg us to get on our arks but that's just not gonna happen

yeah, this is why i just put in an order for about 8kg of argentine beef at my local store, i had it in my house for 2 weeks and consumed about 4kg of it but it was surprising how little i actually needed, and it helped my cat feeding it to him a lot also
the cat has been living out here in a very clean, mostly poison free environment, except for a bit of insecticides, and his blood test showed that he was fine except that his gingevitis was slowing his food intake enough that it showed he wasn't getting quite enough food... he's getting surgery to clean up the mess at the back of his mouth soon and i'm quite confident that between feeding him beef regularly and keeping him indoors most of the time he will be fine, i do want to get him a harness and leash so i can take him on walks around the area to get sunshine and air but i think that will be enough to keep him in tip top shape... there is a lot of nasty ticks in this area that i have many times picked off the stray cats and dogs that hang around local shops and i just don't want to have to deal with a cat with paralysis ticks again, after losing one a couple years back... and the cat's biggest problem was it looked like he was stealing shitty food, leading to the dental problem, so, again, food is the best medicine
i've also been looking at some herbs that can help, one notable one is fennel, which has a mild anti-insect effect, i assume that it's probably quite a good medicine for keeping the bugs away with that stuff... and it's coming to summer time now and there will be mosquitoes and other things around, but medicines are always second to good diet

damn, i saw #mochi the #catstr sitting in the second floor window looking like he might be tempted to run down the wall and splat himself uncomfortably on the grass
ok, i'm gonna have to visit a hardware store and find some solution for preventing his escape now he is becoming a healthy, mischievous kitty and no longer in a fog of gingevitis and earache pain, i have a hacksaw and i guess i could get a hammer and some framing pieces and build some mochi-proof chickenwire cat-retention apparatus
gonna have to think about it quite a lot because as summer warms up it's gonna get hot up there and i don't want to think about him running away and coming back covered in ticks
i know it's gotta be pretty solid, cos he already busted out of the bathroom window, which is made of shitty aluminium and cheap plastic parts, so i know he's both ingenious and strong
i would like to have insect screens actually but making them catproof will not be easy, especially being that they have to be attached to the outside of the building, so, yeah, chickenwire and framing wood, and some proper metal retaining pieces that are mochi-proof
it's fine for right now, but in 2 months it's gonna be a big problem if i can't have air flow out those windows

Checking the feed of who follows me, so much retarded posts about ecash.
It's a solution for problems that don't exist, shilled by questionable people who seems to be levitated mysteriously to visibility.
Classic red flag of VC and spook funded manipulation.
I literally don't follow anyone who is constantly about it. And those I follow who talk about it say it's unstable and not commercially useful, and have been rugged or hadfunds disappear.
The levitation won't continue when everyone finally realises it'sascm.

plastic bags are the least nasty part of the plastic-industrial complex tho, it's the cardboard with plastic lined cartons, the plastic bags that sit with food in them for months before you buy them, the plastic bottles, the plastic jugs, the plastic funnels, the plastic everyfucking thing, hell, they would probably try to make us use plastic knives and spoons if they could figure out how to make them actually not totally useless
and it really is just all about driving down the cost of the most necessary consumer goods so they can carouse in their gigayachts and fancy penthouses and fly around in their lear jets and look down their noses at the rest of teh population, while they dine on the best organic grain fed beef and have doctors that don't just peddle poison drugs
the process eventually reaches a point where it can't continue, i think we are on that threshold now, we are the canaries in the coal mine
i want my raw milk in glass bottles, and my grass fed grass finished beef, and i want my hemp combat pants and my goat leather boots and gloves and stainless steel that actually doesn't rust, and i want lots of my kitchen to be glass, porcelain and copper, i want a copper goddamn bathtub dammit

yeah his hyperplasia in the back of his mouth is so bad you can't even see he has back teeth, so they all need to be removed and some flesh cut out and stuff
he's so funny now he's back here, he's still pretty sedated from the drug they gave him to calm him down, but he seems overall happy
just gotta keep up the anti-inflammatory and ear drops for a while yet and in two weeks he goes in for surgery, they gave me two capsules of gabapentin, which i seem to recall is something they give to people who are experiencing psychosis, so, i guess they gave it to me so they don't have to deal with him being crazy when he arrives at that bad place again where he gets poked and prodded
today's bill was tiny, also, and i know exactly how much the surgery cost will be so that's all nice to know

I just got a call from the vet and he does need dental surgery, so I have asked that they organise to keep him until they can see to it. I want him fully fixed so he is through this hard time and can relax with me and catch up on his lost youth, he's been sick most of his short life, I wanted to do some good so this is what it will be.
I'm sure everything will be ok, once he isn't in so much pain. Poor little guy.

yeah, i can tell you are quite young
but i agree, why not take those rocks and form them into nice blocks we can stack
like i said, here on this island there is so much big chunky blocks of various grades of basalt, people mostly use them un-carved but if you can put together tools to chip them into bricks then they stack very nice
probably the hardest problem is what tools to use... i think steel can do this but you gonna wear them out pretty fast... tungsten tipped spinning disks are the more practical way but that's also a lot of layers of tooling and production to get to that

yeah, there is a lot of elephant grass around here, the farmers use them as beanpoles, and some kind of straggly thing that i think is the basis of the thatching that is used for the thatched roofs.
as for actual big tall trees, that's literally just a matter of climbing some mountains around here, there is all the straight tall eucalypts you could want, on land you can't use, that is hard to get to but hey, you get up there with an axe and the hardest part is dragging it back down to where you gonna use it, but there is no shortage of viable building materials, stone, that's another one, if you have got concrete, but even if not, the centuries of people living here were piling these basaltic rocks up to make terraces for ... centuries, and i'd guess that between mud and thatch and piles of rocks you can make a very cosy dwelling here
the modern concrete shit is actually crappy, mainly, because there isn't a fire in the middle of the house, it's damp here, you need to have heating about 6 months of the year, not a great deal but more than you need to just cook your food

yup
villages means small towns, under 1000 population, there are thousands of them all across the world and they are the best place to live
technically i think my locality is above 1000 pop but technically i live in a little edge of it next to the sea called "saint christopher" beside a larger town called "good fortune"
sao christoval and boaventura is the proper portuguese names
just get out to the edges, you can do the research to verify that in almost all cases this was where very little bad happened when all the bad stuff was happening, both ww2, ww1, in the napoleonic wars, and all the way back to before jesus
same, same, same. there is just no strategic or tactical value in little villages that are mostly subsistence... feeding themselves with their own vege patches, raising their own goats and sheep, and brewing their own wine and distilling their own brandy, bonus points if there is a decent amount of forest around so they are literally building their own houses too
that's not how it is here right now but i'm pretty sure that if the concrete supply dried up the new houses would all be the old traditional thatch a frames like they used to build before the 20th century

acrylics are nasty but they are cheap
oils tend to have problems with maintenance... i mean, mostly they are based on more or less boiled linseed, it has to be freshened up periodically or eventually the wood dries and you start to get all kinds of problems

i think that funchal is the "beloved city" mentioned in revelation
the name seems to be related to the portuguese name for the herb fennel,"funcho" which is so damn close to funchal
fennel is a sweet herb, mild but similar to liquorice and is one of the ingredients in absinthe.
sweet and blessed are very close concepts
i'm sure there is many other aspects to this connection but that one i found by accident looking at the herbal tea section of the supermarket
