All my life I have watched construction crews screwing around
on the job. This is the very first time that it was a good thing!

Elon would be spinning in his grave if he heard that his brain
chip was being used by a military. I say “in his grave” because
I’d doubt he would survive the fall, too much mindless hate
towards him.
Suck it up Alssya, at least now you will get paid regularly. Being
a vetted station rat is far better than being a street kid stuck on
a space station far from any street. Or having to hide in an area
with an airlock…
This is fantastic. I worked one summer for my dad and uncle pouring
concrete foundations for townhouses built on steep slopes in northern
Arkansas. Foundations had to be poured in one go, no seams, and
each section had to be exactly one brick or concrete block higher or
lower than the ones next to it. Mistakes cost money. These would be
easily adjustable for such things. I could see a possible need for ground
radar to map out soil depth, density and big rocks, but that would be
faster and cheaper than exploratory trenches. This is great.
Oh yes, and it’s far more practical than 3D printed walls/floors.
They try to make a big deal about that but in truth it only helps
with maybe 30% of the work. Plus they did clearly say it can be
taken up easily and reused elsewhere. Rocks, loose or sandy soil
would cancel their use, but in areas like mine where it’s mostly
clay it makes perfect sense.
one thing i found… check local ordnances.
US is testy on non us items.
one place won’t allow since it replaces concrete.!
Wouldn’t surprise me any, I didn’t bother to do
any research because of that. It’s a pity, it’d
noticeably lower building costs in areas that
setup would work well in. Like the dryer, dense
ground where digging is difficult.
.. my area… concrete is softer.. o.0
also have to get zone variance, to use.
and special order,. not at any ‘local’
home store.!
Our property is mostly forest land, black dirt about
14 inches down. Turns to muck during the rainy
season, so I doubt it would work here. Great for
veggie gardens, sucks for the cows though. One
of the bigger farms actually has a “cow wash”
setup, they actually like it during the summer heat.
sprinkler heads top and sides in a tunnel they just
walk through. Farmer turns it on, they come a-runnin’.
Guys, my wife is sick, laryngitis, cough, sleepiness,
I won’t lie I’m a bit scared. More so since I lost most
of my hearing on the side that she’s on in the bedroom.
I have to lean over her with my good ear facing her.
I’ll keep you updated.
prayers…
My thoughts are with you.
Take of yourself so you can
take care of her.
I’m trying, I caught it from her now…
She’s on antibiotics, she can talk a little better,
still like an excited Danny DeVito lol.

I saw that one coming.
Still funny.
Keep ’em coming.
Heh, I love puns and dad jokes, YouTube’s AI finally picked up on it 🙂
Figures that jarheads (with a left hand thread) would immediately
figure out how to watch pron with new battle technology. LOL!
In their defense, we (the commo shop) would listen to TV channels
(this was back in the dark pre-digital analog days) on the old
GRC-12 series radios (RT524, PRC-77, etc). IYKYK.
Desert Sheild – intel was using
satellites to scope nude beaches…
Hey, when the only things around you to look at is sand, camel spiders,
snakes, scorpions, and locals and their camels, you improvise.
Who’s the little one tagging along
with (Alyssa?)? Haven’t heard her
speak a word yet.
Name? Age? Relationship to (Alyssa?)?
Back story?
kat. baker street illregular. age unknown
one of the kids “hired” by Matthew
Matthew sent two of his best.
What did we learn? Don’t debate with a true AI, especially not one
that understands and has emotions.
The worst enemy you could make is an AI with a sense of humor.
They never sleep…
Which is why I had that scenario with the ice machine, feeder,
and fridge. 😉
None are dangerous, but damned funny IF you’re not the target…
Thankfully, our fridge is about 30 years old…
It’ss 11 degrees outside, but the snow is stopping.
How is everyone holding up?
