 going so I've been sitting here for like 15 minutes because I was like oh it's Sunday I should go do a live it's a little bit later than I usually do them I mean at this point the schedule is just a suggestion anyway I'm always within a few hours of five o'clock but anyway Sunday live I do do one every Sunday right and I'm sitting here thinking well I had something I was gonna talk about I don't know I don't know I don't want to talk about that I don't know and I started thinking well is there something else I want to talk about is like I was thinking man my my brains just just feel like they're fried like fried eggs man I'm just my my brains are fried so why are my brains fried so I inspired you to build boats that's awesome okay let me let me get let me get through what I was gonna talk about here and the original thing I was gonna talk about I lost it because my brains are fried so I have like 25 acres of jungle here right I also have a solar-powered lumber mill and every time there's a windstorm which happens fairly regularly you know there's trees in the jungle that fall down and like I could totally do stuff with some of those trees if I could identify them figure out which trees are useful for building things which ones are like termite proof which ones are gonna rot like within a week like if I could just figure out how to identify the trees and and have some kind of reasonable understanding of what these trees are and how I can use them I could really put these things to use right and I'm at the point now where I've got pretty good access to the trees I've got the machine that can cut them and I need to figure out what what trees I can use and what they look like and how to identify them so this morning it was kind of wet outside because it rained overnight so I was like all right it's all wet outside you know in the afternoon it'll be drier but for the for the morning let me just try to figure out some of this tree stuff which I've been poking around a little bit over the last few months but now I'm like all right let me let me spend a morning I'm gonna go online see if I can track down some some website and stuff you know identification stuff so I'm looking for you know Panama Central America tree identification stuff online and I found a few a few very useful looking things Wikipedia has some stuff on Central American trees and I think I clicked on the Panama section and I had like I know 60 something different plants a lot of plants go through but not too bad and then there was this other website he was like Panama Tree Atlas or something I don't know what but it had like less hundreds just small so many things and all with scientific names and a lot of it's in Spanish and some of it's in English and it's confusing and I'm and to click you know I can click on each tree name but it's like confusing names because it's like got the scientific name and then it's got the you know the common name and none of the common names are the common names I hear people calling the trees here like my Oroho for example that's one of the big trees around here also known as mahogany I've learned but if I look up my Oroho online nothing and on these these websites nothing no my Oroho but if I look up the the scientific name for mahogany which is I don't remember was snobbly gobbled through bill or or something I don't know the scientific name for mahogany I could find it so I was like okay I know there's mahogany around here let me let me just try to focus on identifying one tree I gotta start I gotta start somewhere right so I actually took five different trees and just kind of like started collecting pictures and descriptions and put them in a little thing but I was like okay let me just but let me really focus on this mahogany I know there's mahogany and it's pretty common around here and I know what the wood looks like and I've used it and I like it and it's it's good wood right so let me download a whole bunch of pictures of it and you'll get the description and that pictures of the leaf and that and the nut and that the fruit thing whatever it is so I spent like an hour just just trying to figure out what a freaking mahogany tree looks like right and looking at these pictures and I'm like okay it looks kind of gray and the barks kind of crackly and then I look at the next picture and it's like brown and the barks way less crackly and I'm like okay and then the next ones got roots that are sticking out way like this and the next ones got and I'm like these look like different trees but somehow there's some common thing that all these are mahogany so I'm so I'm looking at them and I'm staring at the leaves and I'm spending I spent an hour just just trying to like figure out what a mahogany tree looks like so that I went and had lunch and then I went over to the jungle and over at the jungle you know I'm clearing out some bush and stuff you know just like the little jungly part so you can walk around because in the jungle there's like the canopy way up there which blocks out the sun so that down at the bottom there's you could almost walk around there's not a lot of vegetation but there's enough that you know you wouldn't really want to walk through it but if you have a machete you can just kind of like give it a trim I mean I'm probably making it sound easier than it is but you can you can cut through the undergrowth of the jungle and you know kind of clear it out so you can have a nice area to walk around and you know kind of figure out things because you know I want to do some stuff out there anyway I'm looking at these trees and I'm like I have no clue I have no clue what I'm doing I'm like that tree there could be a mahogany I don't know and I'm thinking like okay what were the other trees no no let's let's forget about the other trees let me just try to identify let me try to find one mahogany tree I know they're out here I'm probably looking at one right now probably looking at multiple ones of them so I'm just I'm just like the whole time I was there for for a few hours you know trimming things yeah looking at these trees and I'm like I don't know and like like a quarter of these trees could be mahogany and the leaves are so high in the air I can barely see them right because these trees grow I mean they're incredibly tall and they're just way up there there's no way I'm seeing any fruits or nuts and I don't know it's probably not the right season for that anyway so I came out of there just just clueless like I have I have no idea what I'm looking at I have no I can't identify anything I have no idea what trees are useful what are garbage what it can be used for this I have no clue right so I've I've put I at this point I've put like real real effort and time directed energy into this figuring out how to identify trees and I have I have gotten nowhere I've gotten zero progress right now people often ask me how I how I know how to do so many different things like how how do I learn so much stuff and I'm talking about this now because I'm at the point now where it's like just give up you've you've put effort in made zero progress you have gotten absolutely nowhere there's no point in continuing because there's no reason to think that I'm going to somehow suddenly make progress when I've made zero progress you know I've turned my car on I've read the engine I pushed the gas you know it's making noises and stuff and I look outside I haven't gone anywhere I've gone nowhere and uh this is the point where most people quit I mean most people quit before they get anywhere near this but there's something I've learned in my life and so it's one of the most important things that I have learned in my life seriously like one of the most important things just about living is that when you start to learn something you will often you often end up in a situation where you make absolutely zero apparent progress like as in it just seems like you're getting nowhere you're getting absolutely nowhere and this this happens a lot when you're trying to learn languages this is this is a really learning language is a really good example of this or you know trying to learn something about trees or trying to learn something about some some topic where you we are basically clues clues you're starting at zero and you're trying to learn something at the beginning it's going to feel like you're getting nowhere and that's that's what I that's the feeling I have today that's where my my brains are tired and I feel like they're scrambled eggs because I'm putting all this effort and just like getting nowhere but if you keep going at least in my experience and I've seen this happen with a lot of other people you keep going it's like there's these connections in your brain that that aren't going to connect immediately like they're not going to get it the first time you try you have to start putting effort into it and and actually make your brain tired feel discomfort feel pain like your brain is like a muscle your brain is a muscle like anything else right you're not gonna you're not going to build your biceps unless you give them stress and you're not going to instantly get stronger you have to put them under that stress and then give your body time to react so when this thing happens and I I right now I do not feel like I'm going to learn anything about trees however my rational thinking I can knows that from past experience what is probably going to happen and what I'm going to trust will hopefully happen is that my brain is going to start processing this like while I'm not even paying attention to it I've put the I've put that the stress into my brain and you know tomorrow I'm going look at trees and you know I'll keep looking at these stupid pictures being like I have no clue and my brain is going to keep doing some things that I don't totally I don't have to be conscious of it it happens subconsciously I can I can pay attention to it but I don't have to it's just going to do this stuff and at some point things are going to start clicking and suddenly it's going to be like I I I get it like this this mahogany tree thing this is the common thing between all these totally different looking trees this is how I can identify them and I've actually had this exact experience before when I lived in Vermont where they were there was a completely different set of trees and there the same I had the same situation I was like I've got all these trees around I want to use some what what what are these trees what can I use them for and so I started learning you know just online and in books and just anywhere I could the oak is good for this oak splits straight it's nice and strong you know hemlock is is good for this and you know different different woods are good for all kinds of different things and at first I had no idea what what any of the trees were but pretty quickly like within a few months I could identify almost every tree in the forest and to this day I mean you could put me in a in any forest in the northern United States you know southern Canada I could identify 90% of the trees like that like no problem and it's hard to imagine a time when I when I didn't know what they were but now I'm in that position again I'm in some place where I have I can't identify a single tree but I just have to trust the process trust you know try to look things up try to learn things try you know any get the information anywhere I can ask people what is what is this wood okay this wood here what is what does the tree look like how do I identify can you point to one for me you know if there are a lot of people around here who I could who could identify the stuff easily maybe I'll be able to get someone to come with me to my my property one day and just just point out a few trees and I can put little signs on them or maybe I just need to keep banging my head against this thing where I'm like you know just just looking at the pictures of of the of the type of tree I'm trying to identify and then keep going to the forest and keep looking at things and eventually something's going to click you know so yeah I just I just wanted to talk about that because that's it's it's something it's something that is incredibly discouraging at the beginning but gets really awesome the further you go and one of the things that our society has become obsessed with which is really a sad thing is is instant gratification because when when you get this instant gratification you get the instant thing but it doesn't last you get this spike and then it just drops off into garbage that's why so many people feel terrible all the time because they get their instant shot of of adrenaline or you know endorphins or whatever but then it drops off and then it's like oh well I feel much worse than when I got that instant thing and they keep going for the instant things and it's always it's always a letdown after it's a constant letdown but when you put effort into something where you're learning something or growing in some way where it's really hard at the beginning and you know you you basically get nowhere but then you start going up it's the opposite you're not coming down all the time you're you're going up and it's very encouraging you know it makes you feel like you're you're not you're not just pissing away your life like you're actually learning and growing and doing something and I think that's something that a lot of people are missing out in their life like by only chasing the the the short-term gratification man I tell you go go for the go for the the long burn go for the thing that's hard where you're making no progress at the beginning because you it really starts to accelerate and feel amazing and right now I feel like a complete idiot with this tree thing but I'm pretty sure that within six months I'm going to be like man I know what this tree is and this tree is and it's amazing you know all the stuff I can do you all right let's let me shut up for a minute and see what's going on here I think you guys have been saying a bunch of stuff nepsy what's going on mr landfill how's it going Eli how is everyone Jamie you inspired me to build boats that is beautiful boats is another thing you know when I first started building boats I had no clue what I was doing although the boats thing was kind of more it was a lot easier than learning trying to learn about trees because I don't know just mechanical things and and spatial awareness and stuff like that I you know I my brain just picks that up really well because I guess like I've had a lot of practice um Joshua Mark says I build boats now that's awesome man what do you do with your boats do you're building like multiple boats do you have multiple boats or you're building them for other people that's cool Zed the Canadian and uh British Z sup everyone greetings from Utah good night buddy from the Caribbean I built my own kayak and outboard motor thanks to your ideas and abilities keep up the wonderful work well that's awesome another person who's building boats that's that's super cool man oh that's really great comes up everyone it helps the channel says Mr landfill am I supposed to be doing that like everyone else always you know in in their in their videos says and like like them subscribe and here's some videos over here and there and look at that should I be doing that I don't know I think it would be kind of funny actually anyway um Maracas Bay Trinidad to be exact oh that's where you're building your your boat your kayak and stuff that's awesome ask for help yes uh to Ian MT 30 yeah I mean whenever you're trying to learn something yeah one of the one of the resources ask for help yeah like when I'm trying to learn something like that I don't put any any restrictions on where I'll where I'll get the information I'll look it up online if there's a book you know if I'm if I'm in a place where I'm off grid I'm and you know far away from a library and low population density I might have to be uh I won't have as many options of places to get help as if I were in a place where there were more people although it depends you know sometimes more people are just less informed yeah if in this particular case trying to learn about trees if I was in a city I could ask a million people and they'd all be like what what do you want to do with trees but there are actually very knowledgeable people around here who cut cut lumber like in that they go out into their jungle cut lumber with the chainsaw and sell it they they they know their wood man and there's a guy who lives not too far from here who did say he would go with me into the jungle he's about 75 years old but like strong guy man he's in great shape there's a lot of those guys around like old guys who are just like like jacked love those guys they're awesome anyway so I'm kind of hoping that I can catch him at some point when he's not busy you know he's busy doing stuff a lot so if I if I can catch him at the right time uh I'll I'll see if he'll come out to my property and help me identify some of the trees when I take a picture of the tree and post it to social media I'm sure someone out there can identify the tree yes that's I've actually been one of the things I did this morning was I went on reddit and you know looked up tree identification there's a bunch of stuff there you know people are always posting stuff asking you know what is this tree could someone help identify it so I might try to do some of some of that too um yeah I'm just I'm just gonna try anything but I think I think a lot of it is I need to I need to spend a lot of time yeah actually I think the main thing I need to do right now for the tree identification is stare at the trees and figure out why this tree is different than this one but why this tree is the same as that one over there even though they look different because like like when I lived in Vermont um you know I could identify a sugar maple tree pretty easily but they don't all look the same you know they the barks different depending on how they grew what conditions they were in and stuff so they actually look different however once you get enough experience staring at them and looking at them you can realize which differences don't matter and which which similar things are the keys to them being the same the same type of tree so I think that's a lot of what I have to do is I have to go to the I have to go to the jungle which I've been doing a lot lately and just spend time like looking at the trees and being like okay I think this one is the same kind of tree as that one you know they're different but there's certain similarities in the bark and then try to get a good look at the the hard the hardest part about this is that the trees are so tall the leaves are so high up when I was in Vermont the trees were not nearly as tall as they are here and often there they'd have like branches sticking out lower down so I could see leaves closer up but here it's like these trees just go up for like I don't know like 40 meters or something straight up just a just a straight log and then way up at the top there are leaves that are all intermingled with other leaves from the next tree over it's crazy it's really interesting uh just environment you know and and having that roof up there that's so high above and then down at the bottom you know it's it's just kind of cleared out except for these these pillars these huge are I'm showing them like this but it's I mean they're like massive pillars it's really cool oh let's see knowing what you don't know is progress that's true yeah that that is actually one of one of the big pieces of progress you know we could go back to the Dunning Kruger effect which I've talked about before which is an effect that you get when you know a tiny bit and you think you know a lot because you don't know enough to know how much you don't know so when you get over that little hump and you get to the point where you learn enough to realize how incredibly much you don't know that's when you can really start learning more so I'm kind of in that I'm in that that hole right now and I I'm kind of aware of how incredibly deep I am in that hole okay fry fried onions oh fried onions they sound delicious right now I could use some onion rings oh man some onion rings with with sourdough oh yeah how do I get water well most of my water comes off the roof and goes into a gutter and into a pipe into a concrete water tank that I made and some I mean a lot of the water also goes off a spout on the front of the house because my roof is kind of huge I don't need I only collect the water in the water tank from about a third of my roof and then the other two thirds runs out the front of the house you know off the gutter in this you know off this little spout down into some buckets so I keep some buckets in front of my house and so those get filled up every time it rains and that way I can use those buckets for you know doing concrete or you know anything that I don't need like really clean water for sometimes sometimes I'll use it for showers if it's raining I'll just go out there and be like it's I don't know it's just useful to have that but yeah most my water is all is all rain water I do have a stream though on the the jungle property I was talking about with all the trees shaggy bark and long pointed okay oh man you're gonna tell me some important stuff here home planet says shaggy bark and long pointed fingers off a center rib amplified mahogany that has a medicinal leaf that is useful against infection before I became a professional with plants I had no clue okay shaggy bark with long pointed fingers off a center rib is the long pointed fingers the leaves or is that has that something to do with the shaggy bark and the funny thing about the the shaggy bark is when I was looking at pictures of mahogany trees some of them had shaggy bark and some of them had less like the the amount of shagginess of the bark was there was a there was a big range there you know although I think a lot of that probably has to do with the age of the tree but probably also the the growing conditions I don't know yeah I still have a lot to learn I need to get to the point where I can where I can tell which things matter and which don't instead in terms of figuring them out tow mators what's going on man Mr. Landfall I notice a new group of names here each week oh yeah there are some different people here um arc 212 says just laid down for a rest on a rest day just in time for a pan of a power excellent back from a long odyssey to deliver my benches oh these benches you make you make these benches right down to az through Navajo land beautiful and perilous trip filled with um continue problem solving and manifesting outcomes into into chaos that's great nice mention of Vermont Andrew Potter you live in Vermont so sadly just do it I'm not sure what that was talking about but often is is good to start doing stuff slept under the stars on a mountain pass oh that's cool this is our arc who just went on a trip into Navajo land that's cool slept under the stars on a mountain pass tried to buy a festival domino I don't know what that is for 750 off from greg's list spent eight hours in a parking lot in Denver after hours of driving waiting to hear from the dude oh that's the worst manage expectations um just don't have expectations I am mt 30 says manage expectations is that is that in reference to when you're trying to learn something I don't know I just I just don't try not to expect too much I just just go man just go don't worry you know the the results are going to take take care of themselves go do your best that's all you can really do you know when you know succeed or fail isn't something you have to worry about all you have to worry about is doing the best job you can which gives you the best chance of success that that was a big lesson I learned from track and field I know I I talk about track and field lessons a lot but that was doing doing track and field really taught me a lot of cool things and in that I learned that the more I think about the finish line the more I think about winning and the more I think about the end result the worse I did the more I focused on the every moment that I was in the better I did so it was like you know the best way to win or the best way to succeed is to focus on what you're doing don't worry about whether or not you're gonna succeed or fail just just do your best in the moment ah let's see I'm building an electric car from garbage and tonight is hopefully when I mount my motor and could technically spin the tires if I was brave enough oh that's awesome that's super cool man is this an electric car you're gonna drive like on the streets okay about tree identification I like to get field guides of the area I am in and learn the trees plants insects and fungi I think this is a very important thing for any human being to be familiar with yeah so I wonder if I can get something like that in town maybe town here I think there's there's not a lot of demand for that but I might be able to find something like that when I was in Vermont there was a library nearby and I went into the library and then you know asked the the cool librarian ladies who are these old hilarious ladies oh they were so funny but I went in there and I was like how can you guys help me identify some trees and they they gave me a book and I checked it out kept it out for a week and that that was one of the things that helped me start identifying the trees maybe I can find some kind of tree identification you know tree guide around here I'll keep a lookout and see I don't know have you used a vegetation identification app or is your location too undocumented yeah that's that's one of the big things so when I've looked online for ways to identify trees in Panama I mean there's a million things to identify plants in you know North America and Europe but here it's a lot harder to find something and one of the issues is that there are so many different trees here like when I lived in Vermont once I learned like 10 trees that was pretty much everything here it's like there's so many different types of trees but I don't know maybe I maybe I can find something I don't know I just keep keep banging my head against the problem and not giving up oh I'll get somewhere on Reddit our trees is a community about marijuana and marijuana enthusiasts is a community for arborists yes really mutual takeover and it just stayed that way really that's funny so trees is about marijuana marijuana enthusiasts is about trees okay Jamie you should be setting trot lines for fish with about 10 to 20 hooks as well as a fish or crab trap and gill nets gill nets those just those are destructive as far as I know so gill nets are these big nets that you put out and fish swimming in them their gills got get caught caught I mean I'm presuming that's how they get caught that's why they call them gill nets I think but anyway fish get caught in them right and there are people around here who use gill nets and they just catch anything and then they pull the gill net out of the water and just throw away like three quarters of the fish that they they've already killed but it's like too little it's a wrong kind or whatever you know it's I really don't like the idea of just like like mass murder just so you can get just so it's faster and easier to get what you want like let me let me kill 20 fish to get the one I want yeah I can't do that that's that that goes against my adventure builder principles and all that stuff and uh trot lines for fish with about 10 to 20 hooks I don't know I can I can go fishing with one hook online and catch stuff I don't need to I don't need to snag everything in the water with a pile of hooks besides there's so many hooks my favorite is spear fishing I do have a fish trap and that works really well one of the nice things about the fish trap is you know I can check it every day and there's if I don't want what's in it I can let them out it doesn't kill them or anything you know I really don't like the idea of killing things that I'm not gonna eat I mean unless it's a poisonous thing thank god the nursery at the hardware store had a copy of the sunset western garden book to look up answers for customers as well as other great employees I thought it'd be in paint or something huh okay arc says about buying new hand saw you should look into a saw sold under the name shark saw I have several hand saws of various kinds and this one or this is one I think you might find useful I've had one for around 10 years a shark sigh am I gonna remember that let me get something to write with so I should I should look up a shark saw all right comments don't disappear and not come back oh there okay good cross cut rip grind really really durable I want to get some of those old saws man um kind of like American Elms which was like American Elms wow I'm out of context here Jamie uh wait Jamie order activated carbon and make a water filter out of a bucket oh I have I have water filters so I collect water in in the water tank there and I I sometimes drink straight out of it it's it's never been a problem but for drinking water I bring it inside and put it in this big stainless steel monstrosity I made out of an old stainless steel fire extinguisher can and a beer keg and the fire extinguisher has a hole in a little hole in the bottom and a water filter inside it it's a black burky water filter they're supposed to be really good anyway so I I dump water in there and then it filters through down into the keg and I call it sky beer yeah sky beer it's just water um opening up a canopy by logging limbs could make decent light to grow a lot of commercial plants on the ground a thrill seeker job that a climbing robot could do p s fingers equals leaves okay you're talking about leaves before yeah I want to get some some light in down there and and grow some like the soil is really good so I want to grow grow some food stuff you know I just want to get some some fruit trees growing anyway the forest service natural parks have them for sale in the states do they have this is a this is field guys yeah do they have field guides for central america though okay this is about matt's electric car is a car you'll drive on oh is it a car you'll drive on the streets oh you you added my question that is great because now i'm not going to be out of context yes uh yeah 50 year old shell of a car saved from the shredder put a forklift motor into it 4 000 cells from junk drill batteries hand-built inverter that's awesome do you do you like uh have videos or stuff showing how you did all this because I actually want to build an inverter here and I got the parts and theoretically I'm going to do a thing I should be able to do it but I've never done it before I don't know I don't want to see someone else do it but plus I put that project aside because it's not high priority field guides panametry search that several books books showed up right but it's going to take me like if I order a book it's going to take a while to get here by the time the book gets here I'll probably not need it I don't know though maybe I should just maybe I should just order one and speaking of ordering things so then you know I get things I order a lot of things from the United States and actually you guys send me stuff from the United States too because I have a an amazon wish list with someone bugged me into doing thank you for getting me to do that because people have sent me some really useful stuff up there um anyway every month or so uh shipping container service brings stuff down here from Florida and so I get stuff sent down on that and the next container leaves at the end of November ish um and I have some exciting stuff on that container coming some of that I don't remember because a few weeks ago on I was doing a live just in the middle of the week and someone asked about my amazon wish list and I was like oh yeah there should be a link to it down here and then that person or maybe that person and a couple other people sent me a few of the things off it which was amazing and now I don't remember what those things were but I remember I was excited about it and I'm not going to look them up because now when I go get the the container and I get my packages I'm going to have surprises haha that's the best anyway I'm also I also ordered a few things myself one is a bunch of jujitsu floor mats you know like like like floor mats like wrestling floor mats they were they're from a guy who does jujitsu and he was sold he they were used I didn't buy them new they're like 250 bucks a piece new but he was selling them for like 50 bucks each um so I bought a whole bunch and I mean not like a whole bunch but like you know a decent amount enough to make a little a little wrestling zone for me and my kids my kids love to wrestle you know now my oldest one the other ones anyway so that's coming I'm excited about those and because like man my kids wrestle like on the concrete you know it'll be nice to have them have a nice area anyway I also ordered yesterday I ordered a 3d printer and I ordered a bunch of filament so someone uh last week uh PayPal'd me a hundred dollars and he said hey take this and go buy some 3d printer stuff and I was like nice and so I went on you know Amazon and just looked up 3d printer filament and found one that was on sale and I bought like five rolls of it so I have like five kilograms of a 3d printer pl a stuff coming anyone who knows 3d printers knows what I'm talking about anyway and I also finally decided what 3d printer I was going to get and just bought it yesterday and I I picked a soval sv-06 and uh like the the more I the more research I did on these the more options like decent options they came up with and at some point I was like all right I just got to pick one and that that one seemed pretty good people were saying good things about it seemed to be reliable it had been around for a little bit so it's you know been tested and everything but there were there were a few other ones where I was like oh maybe I should get that but anyway I just you know I had to just pick one at some point oh and part of the reason was there was an 80 off coupon for this one it was already kind of marked down so I was like wow it's under 200 bucks let me just let me just get it anyway um and then I have some other stuff coming on the container that I totally don't remember now but I'm excited about the 3d printer um try google lens for your tree identification I don't have a google lens do I need to get a google lens this is the glasses thing right you can take pictures and use lens later when you have internet access I see do you have a photograph do you have to photograph the leaves you can't reach the leaves I think it may be zoom in yeah that's part of it that's part of the tricky thing right now is I'm trying to identify these trees by the bark mostly I mean I can kind of see the leaves but like you know from that far away a lot of the leaves look the same I mean I can tell I can tell if the leaves are like like you know like alternating like that or if they're like you know opposite you do this with your fingers you know opposite like that that's not too hard to tell from far away but you know other details can get pretty hard to to see like the actual leaves and the edges and stuff like that anyway I think I'm getting somewhere can't stay love the stream hope to catch uh the one after the next one oh are you going to be gone for a week well whatever you're doing good luck okay about a shark saw it's a Japanese saw with a great blade handle is more western I think Japanese saws are much better than western style saws both from the tooth grind and pole versus push so is it a pole saw anyway I'll I'll find out pawpaw trees might grow there we have them in arc our kansas I had a friend when I was in high school who thought there was an Arkansas and in our kansas anyway we we were from Canada so but still he said that and we were all like like you know our kansas is pronounced Arkansas right anyway uh there are a bunch of field guides for Central America in my experience I constantly refer to them to ID some some new creature very good to have on hand and there's no there's so much complexity to one's area and there's there is so much complexity yeah um well yeah maybe I've already made her order one of those field guides uh often yeah I mean I'm not gonna I don't have to write that down um speaking of Google Lens Jamie let me set up good wireless internet coverage all over your island and you can live stream with Google Lens any on YouTube uh this is what you're gonna come set up I mean the internet's pretty good here I don't want to have internet's too good uh let's see what it is in here sorry everyone's wild my my comments there get stuck and I have to refresh them okay hi Jamie what made you pick Panama oh that's I think I need to sum up that story kind of quick okay first I went when I left the United States I was looking for a for a permanent home and first I went to Chile because it looked really good on paper but I didn't like the culture there the um what's that area down at the bottom that's all beautiful well anyway there's there's some really beautiful areas in in Chile I really like the the natural environment but the culture was very uh nouveau rich is that the right word like people there was a lot of money coming in and there was a lot of obsession with becoming more Americanized and there was a lot of propaganda against all the things I liked um for instance I kept seeing all these all these you know public service messages about how farmers markets were bad you had to buy things that were plastic wrapped or else you were risking your life because it was unsanitary to buy directly from the farm and I'm just like what no oh anyway there were there was some other problem that so when we left there we were on our way to Nicaragua because I was like well let me try Central America maybe I don't know but the plane was landing in Panama before it continued on to Nicaragua and I was like like the night before we got on the flight I was like hey let's let's just stop in Panama let's just check that out before going on to Nicaragua and we landed in Panama and the first thing I noticed when we landed was that the airport was filthy it was just so dirty and I was like these people don't care at all and I was like this is this is totally different than any airport I've been to before maybe I need to check this place out I don't know this is just it was so unpretentious let me it was filthy anyway one of the things that had turned me off of Chile was all that focus on money right money money money money money so when I landed in Panama and the airport was filthy I was like these people aren't trying to show how rich they are they're just like whatever so that I guess that made a good impression on me maybe it wasn't supposed to but it did and then when well that right after we landed the next day we came out to this area where where I am now and I got here and I was like this is the most beautiful place I've ever seen oh yeah it's just gorgeous here and you know when I went to the Bahamas that was amazing the beaches there were spectacular but yeah yeah this place wins out so it was like it was just it was just amazingly beautiful here and actually I guess one of the things I really loved about it was that it didn't have pristine beaches everywhere because when you go to a place that has pristine beaches everywhere you know there's there's just piles of tourists they're just going to pile in there and then it's garbage and blah blah blah and there is some of that in some of the areas around here there's some very tourist areas not far from me but the area where I am it's it's kind of undeveloped and rugged and you know no one really cares about this area it's just kind of like this this this forgotten little area that people in town say is for the weirdos like my when my brother came to visit here he was in town talking to someone saying oh yeah my brother lives down in this area here and the person said to him oh that's that's nobody lives there that's where although the weird survivalist types live don't go down there and my brother was like oh yeah that's that's my brother all right so I don't know I just I just fit in here like as soon as we got here I started feeling like this is the place you know and I'm really happy with it and there are there are definitely problems in Panama but I mean there's there's problems everywhere and I guess the thing is when you're looking for a place and this this applies to a lot of different things when you're looking for something you're you're often in a situation where you're never going to find the perfect thing right so you have to find the the issues that you don't mind like find the problem face find the place with the problems you don't care about or that you can you can deal with you know um and that's that's kind of what Panama is for me like all the all the problems here are things that they're okay you know I can deal with and then just the place is beautiful and you know having having a beach like a 30-second walk from my front door ah it's it's awesome yeah let's see you consider going on love on the spectrum dating service you might find love on there love on the oh is this is this an autism thing you know I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you a story that's gotta be what it is right love on the spectrum so when I was in high school there was like I wasn't that social um and I was I was very social when I was when I was younger you know I had best friends and everything but then just before high school we moved and you know I just I just didn't really make friends and I would say a lot of it was because my home life sucked I was like miserable all the time and I just I just wanted to be left alone you know and it had nothing to do with autism but when I was in high school uh you know it was it was it was obvious that I was kind of a loner I wanted you know I wasn't I wasn't that socially involved I also got straight A's and everything except English I always got a B minus I get straight A's and everything and then a B minus so there was um and I was in the I was in the gifted program you know like where where like in in every city there there would be like one school or maybe in maybe there'd be a few of them but I was going to the school where they had the gifted program and so I and I ended up in the gifted program you know for the smart nerdy kids and when you're in the gifted program for the smart nerdy kids I guess they pay more attention to you I don't think they would have done this if I was just you know then one of the normal people but anyway the school had these psychologists experts who would go around to different schools in the city and their job was just to assess weird kids and figure out what's wrong with them or you know and help them out or stuff or whatever so I started getting called to the office I don't know every few weeks or so I don't remember the exact timeline but every few weeks you know the one of these experts would be in the school and I'd have to go and do do an interview with them and you know do an IQ test and you know then I'd go back to that back to class and toward the end of the year and I don't even remember what what grade this happened but it was like in the middle of high school um but you know toward the end of the year one day I get called to the office and I'm like oh this is not always you know do the IQ test you know am I autistic blah blah blah thing and I go into this room there's there was you know like a meeting room next to the office and I go in there and all of the experts all of this psychologists who had seen one at a time and done their little tests you know had their interview and stuff all of them were there at a table and you know so they were all doing their I know final assessments or whatever so I go and sit at the table and they're they're they're discussing me and you know one person is like well uh you know uh Jamie's been doing very well in many things but he's you know he's not not that social and you know they're partially partially talking to me they're very polite they included me in the conversation but you know he's not that social and he always gets he gets this b minus in English class and an a and everything else so you know we were trying to figure out you know what what kind of uh you know difficulties you might have with with the English class or with socializing or whatever and uh so they went around one at a time and the the you know one expert was like well I gave him this IQ test and there was nothing to indicate he had any any autism he he he scored very high extremely high on this IQ test across the board and the next person same thing yeah he um yeah he seemed didn't seem to have any difficulties with anything he got everything even the you know the English comprehension stuff he was like bam right on it you know and um so they're having this conversation I think there were four or five of them and they're having this conversation amongst themselves and you know just talking about we're we're really trying to figure out you know what's what's going on so Jamie do you have something you can maybe like like some piece of information like you do you have an idea of why you have difficulty in in the English class when when everything else is fine and I said all right look I'm just gonna tell you guys the truth in English class I don't I don't read the books and they're all like what do you mean you don't read the books I mean the the books we're supposed to read I don't read them I don't do anything I just show up for the tests and I do the test and they're like well what do you what do you mean you don't read the books you have to read the books to to do the tests you you can't do the test without knowing what the book is about and I'm like well probably I would have to read the book to get an A but I can get a B minus without reading the books so I just show up and just make up some answers and I get a B minus and to me that that that zero amount of effort and energy is worth getting through this class that I don't care about at all because I have other things to do and they're just like all right I guess you're fine then never mind and then the next day my English teacher was like can I make this class more interesting for you and then we actually came to some she let me start doing art projects which was kind of kind of funny and and much more much more interesting to me so I started doing like art projects that had to do with the books that I was supposed to be reading and you know we actually got along pretty well but anyway the point of the story is that I went through this whole testing thing and all these psychologists and everything and they found zero um what's it called spectrum autism I'm not autistic they found me to be not autistic at all I'm just smart that's it um and I'm not that social sometimes because well there are two reasons that I'm that I'm not that social sometimes one is because I grew up in a difficult home you know my parents were divorced and there was a lot of I grew up a lot of anger and frustration and um that had some effect on my social life and the other is that I'm just I'm just smarter than most people I don't mean that I don't mean to like brag or anything but this is like every a lot of you guys are smarter than the people around you most of the time and you're going to know exactly what I'm talking about when when I say when you're smarter than all the people around you like when you're the smartest person in the room it's not actually fun it's not freaking fun to talk to people who are just who are just not as smart as you you know and it's not like it's not like an ego thing it's not like I'm better than you or whatever it's just like well okay I figured this out and it's going to take you like 20 minutes to figure this out and I'm just kind of bored while you're doing it and talking through the problem and figuring it out and I don't know what to do and I don't want to sit here and be like look how smart I am because like I'm just there there's a lot of social situations where you just end up just bored out of your mind so you don't want to socialize with people you know of course um and a lot of you guys will understand this too because I know there are a lot of really smart people who watch this channel when you run into a smart person it's like oh my gosh now we can talk for real oh it's amazing anyway I'm not autistic sorry I'm not on the spectrum I don't know yeah I probably wouldn't I probably wouldn't do that well with people who are on the spectrum although I do I I do actually get along totally fine with people who are autistic I've never had um you know problems with that I mean I actually I get along with people who are different that's what that's what it is I don't specifically get along with people who are autistic I get along with people who are different because they're more interesting than people who are same you know same person always doing the same thing and saying the same thing that's the worst when you're around people who are all kind of being their stereotype and you know it's like it's just like listening to a recording over and over and over every time we talk to someone it's just agonizing so you get a you get a weird autistic person or a crazy nerd or or some some person who's obsessed with bodybuilding or or car tires or whatever you know it's just like oh here's something different it's much more interesting so anyway okay about shark's eye yes it is a pulsar oh wait oh that's awesome stuff you missed my reply in between the pop-off comments above oh I'm gonna I better not scroll up I'm gonna totally get lost I'm sorry man um shark's eye yes it is a pulsar great fine crosscut but also nice rip very versatile I use silky saws for my own work silky saws uh blade folds in the handle more compact and protects the edges cool John Rice oh I'm burping here let's get that one out of there okay good um in Kansas the common pronunciation of Arkansas River is our Kansas River really that's hilarious oh do you ever miss your hometown please excuse my English no that's that's totally good English do I ever miss my hometown I know I haven't thought about it I guess not um yeah I haven't thought about it in a long time um I don't I don't expect to ever go back to my hometown um there were some cool things about my hometown one of my favorite things um was that I grew up in Hamilton Ontario Canada and there's this big fault line I'm I'm pretty sure it's the same fault line that Niagara Falls goes over so it's like you know just this big cliff that runs through the countryside right and it goes right through the middle of Hamilton so half the city is on the mountain and half the city is like downtown so you know a lot of place a lot of cities call downtown a specific area in Hamilton it was basically if you were below the cliff like that's basically what people called downtown because it was literally down so you know I lived on the mountain which doesn't matter for the story but this this cliff area um it was just real rocky and some parts were just sheer cliff and some parts were rocky and you know it was just this this big piece of nature that ran through the city that was I mean I wouldn't say it's unbuildable because you could build there but it was basically unbuildable so it was just this big nature thing and um I lived I don't know maybe maybe a mile from it or something and I would go running every day and there were really nice trails through this there were also roads there were a few different roads called you know the access the mountain access roads that would kind of wind up and down this road and there were also sets of stairs so you could I mean it was and it was tall I don't know how many stories tall these things were but I used to do running workouts where we'd go we'd go all the way to the bottom of the stairs and sprint up to the top and it was I don't remember I wish I could remember how long it took to get to the top but this was like this was like a long long set of stairs you know like like running up a ski slope there were actually there were actually ski slopes on this on the escarpment on this on this big fault line on this cliff and that was actually one of the one of the really fun areas to to run through um yeah I loved it in there I would go running through there every day and one of my favorite runs was to start up my house run the mile or whatever it is to get to the top of the set of stairs run down the stairs at which point I'd be pretty low on the on the uh on the cliff and if there was a certain trail that went I don't remember a couple miles and gradually went up and then there was a dip back down and then it went gradually up again until eventually you ended up up up at the top and I love that run because the the whole time other than that dip back down the whole time it was running uphill it was just running up against this resistance and uh it was just it was it was a really good workout you know and it was really good mentally to just be like there is no coasting there is no rest if I coast I stop on like I gotta keep pushing gotta keep pushing it was really good uh mental exercise as well as a physical exercise and the nature there was great I love that um but yeah I haven't I haven't thought about it in a while so I guess I don't really miss it whereas I do I ever miss your own okay mats up awesome stuff is the shell car on a salvage title that will be converted to rebuilt I've just been looking at salvage cars I'm in the final stage of a Toyota Toyota 22 RE engine rebuild cool you need the field guide and UAV not google lens well the thing is there's a lot of different ways to skin a cat I mean there's a lot of different ways to I'm not going to get a google lens let me just say that and there's a good chance I'm not going to get a field guy either I might order one but probably what I'm going to do I'm going to try to catch this guy who lives near me help or get him to help me identify some trees and when I identify him I'm going to I'm going to take something where I can put little signs on the trees and if I've got little signs on the trees I'm going to I feel like I'm going to you know start learning it pretty quick but um I don't know well I don't know I don't know exactly what I'm going to do we'll see what was your experience moving trees around for your mill in Vermont how did you go about it okay so my I had two mills in Vermont actually I moved the trees the same way so most of the trees I moved in Vermont I just rolled because they were pretty close to the lumber mill and when I when I built my second lumber mill it was it was on a low spot and there was it was kind of like in a valley I mean the valley went further down in different directions but there was a there's a like a slope that went up one way and then a cliff that went up the other way so up on this slope any tree I got there I could roll it downhill and you know I'd have to shift the log to get it to go between trees and stuff but you know I could roll it or anywhere in that little plateau area I could just roll the logs that the biggest logs I moved like a couple times I had to move really really big logs that were too big to roll I mean they were just they were too they would have been too wide to get through anywhere so I was dragging them and I built this thing it was like a giant can opener it was kind of like this like say my arm is a big lever and then it's got this and this could go over the log right and I would tip it up and I I tied from here around the log and then got these these things into the ground and then just like and like and pulled it and then I'd lift this up again get those those feet down in the ground again then and you know I could just and that I could move like really really you know like a log like this like I don't know long like 50 feet 20 meters that would be like 70 feet I mean like big trees I could move really really big stuff with that thing and I might end up making one of those here I'm also considering taking my lumber mill over to the jungle because I've you know I found this spot where I want to do some stuff and it's a nice nice plateau and I might just set up the lumber mill over there so we'll see how that goes oh let's see mark or arc 212 no wasn't in a crash was a shell actually two cars from someone's abandoned v8 conversion they chopped it up to fit the bigger engine and gave up title is still good merged the two that's funny weirdos sign me up yeah mr landfill weirdos yeah weirdos I wouldn't want to be a normal person man be a be a weirdo when the going gets weird the weird turn pro do it alone it's weird do it with others it's a club yeah old that's funny have you been affected by the recent blockades I recently watched a video of a foreigner in Panama who is now leaving because of it I don't I don't know um that much about the blockades I mean I don't I what's the word I don't have any experience with the blockage really because I'm on the water and the blockades are blocking the roads some stuff is a little bit harder to get now like gasoline which I don't use anyway so there hasn't been that much effect on me directly in my life here um the protests are about mining a mining company basically trying to just destroy the land to mine a bunch of copper and make a bunch of money and you know the government got paid a bunch of money by this mining company to let them do it and people are like no don't destroy our country for your fat pockets I think it's really cool that that panamanians are standing up to the government because there aren't there aren't a lot of places where where that's happening anymore so I'm actually really impressed by that and I hope that they keep fighting and it works out and I mean I totally support them although I know I don't know all the information so I could be missing something but yeah that's that's what I know about it but it hasn't hasn't really affected me directly here and the thing is like if I were if I needed to if I was living on the land and I needed to drive places and I couldn't get places that would be really frustrating but like I said you know people are fighting for something they think is important as far as I know and I think that's worth the inconvenience so I don't know I don't know what this this uh what was it a foreigner in panel I don't know what this foreigner's experience was so I can't say anything about that okay this is about autism autism I find the core quarantining of bright people stuck on planet retard into categories of mental disease to be a lazy and conformist form of self-policing mental diagnosis in kelly yuga society is sick um I don't know I know I don't only understood part of that but um yeah I think okay so I mean to be totally immodest I'm extremely intelligent like way more way smarter than I led on and that's been and I've you know I've kind of learned to not make it that apparent how smart I am and how much I'm aware of and how much I'm catching and stuff because in my life I've learned that when people when people find out you're smart the first thing most people do is try to figure out what's wrong with you so yeah people say oh you must be autistic you know you can you can understand this impossible thing and that you can do all this stuff with your brain that that I can't no one can do that you must be autistic and um or you must have some some kind of mental problem you know did you get a brain injury you know some a lot of people are just smart and our society is is set up in a way to discourage thinking and intelligence and one of the ways they do that is just you know diagnose smart people with with problems so yeah I agree with that that whole thing you said about it being lazy is it's not just lazy it's it's it's kind of evil actually I think it's maybe even the opposite of lady like it's it's there's a lot of directed effort and propaganda that goes into this whole um you know kind of like tamping down intelligence and and trying to squash people who are smart and make them feel like they're they're they're outsiders and and don't fit in and they're there's something wrong with them like that's that's a that's a really sick thing to do in a society because the smart people are the ones who who who make who you need to make the progress you know you need the smart people to figure the stuff out and when we're taking the smart people and treating them the way they get treated today which is just nearly you're crazy you know ah it's a sign it's a sign of a sick society you know we shouldn't be doing that we should be taking advantage of the intelligence of of smart people to figure out problems to fix a lot of problems there that's my whole thing on smart people adhd seems to be primarily a stress response at a young age and for smart folks they can get away with unusual behavior with their smarts well it depends i mean people who are smart can get can get away with a lot of unusual behavior if they've if they figured out the garbage that they have to do to you know placate the authorities but you also have to be willing to to put up with that crap it's so frustrating like like i don't think i could go back to living in a city for example like i would i would just end up in jail i'd i'd be i'd be too uh subversive and and frustrating to deal with for authorities you know it's just anyway oh and adhd okay so the adhd epidemic that's going on this is another this is another stupid thing where people are just being being forced into these boxes that don't make sense so you take a bunch of kids and you tell them to sit in desks quietly sit there for hours and listen to me drawing on looking at this blackboard and just sit there and don't move sit there just sit there and don't move oh my gosh no wonder these kids are going crazy and then if they if they show any signs of wanting to be energetic oh better better give them some drugs get calm down those kids calm down those kids don't let them be be hyperactive and crazy and don't let them have you know do anything energetic don't let them be kids and run around like kids are supposed to do oh it's so frustrating it's it's oh i can't take it that's one of the reasons i i had to move here i couldn't raise my kids in that society whether whether told you know let's let's just crush your spirits children your spirits need to be crushed and if your your energy and your your curiosity isn't crushed by us trying to crush it we'll fill you with drugs and crush you that way oh it's disgusting it's it's so frustrating it's totally evil it's evil it's totally evil it's a horrible thing that's going on i can't wait till that stops regardless of what disaster needs to happen for that to stop i just i would love kids to be set free from that being the smartest person in the room is likely being the only sober person in the room well yeah sober not necessarily from alcohol but yeah yeah they're all having fun but i just don't want to have dumb low-level conversation it's only it is lonely man it is so lonely when you talk to people and you realize it there is it doesn't matter what i do like i'm already here talking to the people i feel more alone than when i was actually by myself not trying because then i wasn't thinking about trying to interact with people yeah when you run into a smart person oh my god yes i found my people at a local makerspace similar hobbies similar intelligence being around people who get it support each other yeah it's it's super awesome when you meet someone who's just like they're like their brain is switched on yeah i'll repost do you have videos i filmed 120 hours of video but videos take so much time to make i spend time making the car instead i have a few short clips unlisted my build log is on forums yeah i know what you mean about you know taking time to make the videos versus taking time to just actually do the thing like my my number one rule in my documenting of my stuff is that i can never let the videos get in the way of the project itself so if anyone's wondering that's why sometimes i don't get video or i don't get the best video it's because like the the project itself that's that's the thing i'm really doing that can't suffer um bonding with people is very difficult depends on the person i mean i've i had a situation when i was in alaska i've mentioned this before i was in alaska and i built a couple houses way out in the wilderness and this girl i was building one of the houses for she's she's in mensa you know the the genius club and she's like hey jamie come to come to the mensa meeting with me there's some people i think you should meet and i'm just like oh like people who who think they're smart and are going to this meeting to show people how smart they're this is gonna be horrible and i was like all right fine and i met these these these like i don't know is this this dude and his parents and his friend and i was like oh my god you guys were awesome and my my friend who took me to this was like oh my god jamie i've never seen you be so social and interactive with another human being it's like you're a different person and yeah when you when you meet when you meet people who are like we're like on on your thing on your level man it's awesome but yeah trying to bond with people when you are just not connecting with them all at all it's it's just like banging your head against the wall there's also the factor of having elected to pursue a compounding discipline on the margins of shared experience okay the the pirate pronunciation could be Arkansas this is going to be Arkansas and Arkansas yeah Arkansas hey jamie did you get that new camera i really enjoyed the island tour oh a new camera yeah someone so one of the things someone sent me oh now i remember another thing so i i said earlier a couple weeks ago someone asked about my amazon wishlist and i was like it's down here in the comments and then people sent me a few things one of the things was uh maybe it wasn't from that time but anyway someone sent me a camera that i had on it like an underwater camera that's coming that'll be on the next container i'm very excited to get that someone else sent me flippers which i'm also very excited because i have flippers i call them flappers can i just call them flappers i'm just calling flapper so i have flappers and they're they're nice one piece rubber flappers i don't remember where i got them but they're size 12 and my feet are size 14 i mean us sizes um so my feet are two sizes too big uh so my toes are kind of sticking out the end and like i jammed up um but someone sent me some some actual big like flippers that should fit my feet which is going to be amazing and then someone also sent me a a lighter like uh what are they called those zippo lighter with some extra wicks and and flints and stuff like that that should last me forever right um i really enjoyed the island island tour excellent all right jayme hi i followed you since the big metal spider robot i think was great i mean i can't wait to do another giant robot project i'm really excited about that of course i have a whole bunch of other stuff i need to do but i'm starting i mean that's that's the main reason and i ordered a 3d printer so i can start making prototypes of the next giant robot which is going to be pretty awesome at least that's a plan i mean the plan is always to make something awesome uh if one encounters a new peer it is a joy to learn and listen one can learn from everything but it is nice to have the opportunity opportunity to listen to lucid insight from people with talent and experience you know it is always exciting to to meet someone new it's just when they open their mouth and it's just like they're they're they immediately turn into same person you know same person is person who's just says the same thing as everyone else oh it's just it's just just disappointing it's like human you are not reaching your potential and sometimes i'll try to i'll try to tell people that i'm like what do you really care about what do you really think and with some people you can snap them out of of same person mentality and and get them to start saying what they really think and then they become interesting but a lot of people are like no no no oh no no no i have to say same thing i must say same thing same recording that i've heard that other people say i must say same thing and they won't snap out of it and it's yeah that's kind of weird it's really weird direct energy smirk you're on fire um crazy question okay i'm ready for question do you know any magic tricks that you show the kids i love to see kids seeing magic i do magic for kids all of all ages for 36 years it makes everyone smile that is pretty sweet well i do magic tricks but it's mostly like you know magic tricks that would work on a kid like you know hold something in your hand throw it into your other hand so fast they don't see it and then be like where is it it's gone and then sneak it into their pocket and be like do you know where it is can you find it check i don't know check your pockets or something they'll pull it oh my you know i mean stuff like that um i don't know any really good magic tricks though you know like really good one i can juggle and walk around on my hands and stuff like that that's always good from some laughs although well one of my kids is is is a lot harder to get to laugh now you know she's getting a little older and a little more mature and she's like we're going come on give me a break so i gotta i gotta laugh really hard today i don't remember what i was doing but uh with her it has to be more more kind of like intellectual things and she'll like oh let's see i like the field guides so that i can ID everything insects pests beneficial wasps what kind of moth is this what role does the mushroom play in the rhizome oh rhizosphere sorry uh potentially good for kids also yeah i'm trying to get my kids interested in the in you know everything that's going on in the jungle too uh how are your chickens do you still have chickens i don't personally have chickens disheina has chickens and there i saw one of them today looked like a little bit ragged on it on its on her tail feathers probably because the other chickens were pecking at her and she's probably low on the pecking order but other than that looked like she was in pretty good shape yeah i don't know you need uh all right all right um and uh jamie you are smart but your hydrofoil understanding was a complete joke ah i don't want to swear on this channel um let's see um i don't need that crap so the thing is you don't you don't know anything about me you see what you see in videos which is very little information um so when you make when you make judgments like that uh it really shows your own ignorance and and it shows your your susceptibility to the dunning kruger effect where you get a little bit of information and you think aha i know what's going on i know and then you can make these big grand statements which is an insult and you can really f off he said you know what mr landfill kick that guy out block him i don't need that crap um autism today is more understood as a spectrum anyway autism schmawson okay like autism is a real thing right but like trying to fit like everyone on the spectrum is just getting out of hand like too many people are being diagnosed as as as it as um just that's like an excuse you know it's like you're having difficulty this is we'll we'll just we'll just give the excuse of autism and then we can give you some drugs and some treatments and we can find some people who can make money off your autism it's just it's just overdone you know um lens is an app for your phone it's not limited to i don't actually have a phone well i i do actually have an old phone someone gave me i don't use it for anything you know although i think it has a gps thing in it i think i can use it for um to test the speed of my boat actually but i don't know i plug it in it every once in a while to make sure it's charged and battery doesn't die other than that i don't um let's see you could definitely live happily in a city i could not i could not live happily well that's not true i could live happily in a city that i have never experienced but i can imagine a city that i could live happily in but um any of the cities i've been in no definitely not completely agree with the adhd description you make it's not natural to sit staring at a blackboard at a young age if you have energy and intellect it is crushing oh it's so crushing i hated school oh and i was i was considered a problem kid and i was like i was always getting punished for these dumb things and like like i was never punished because i was doing something bad i was punished because i i was doing too much like i i didn't want to just sit there i wanted to do something i remember like in grade in grade eight like i was still having problems with this like oh i i had a math test and there was a new math teacher who didn't know me he was he was japanese guy he was really cool i mean we ended up becoming friends but at the beginning um i'm sitting there in class and you know he's teaching class and i'm drawing pictures of monsters and creatures and stuff and he comes over and like starts chilling me out just like you know pay attention you think you could just slack off and drift through life la la la oh man we were we were just like like this until the first midterm came and i aced it and then he realized you're drawing pictures on that because you already understood what i'm saying and don't need to pay attention anymore and i was like yes and then we ended up actually getting along really well but um yeah it's just it's just uh just the presumption that everyone needs to to just sit there and stare blankly ah i was so lucky my parents were poor and couldn't afford the drugs oh man that is lucky man you escaped by the skin of your teeth ooh or i would be medicated to low-level thinking man that is that's a good thing like talk about a close call oh man that's like that's sort of like like being in a shooting you know there was there was a guy who was in a school shooting and after the fact he checked his backpack and there was a bullet like in the book that he was that he had on in his backpack man close call same thing man your parents couldn't quite afford the drugs to oh so lucky anyway uh arc says i don't have a sewing machine i have one right there i love my sewing machine it's really old too that's amazing uh other tools first but i've been interested in the culture of my og oh make your own gear yeah i love making my own gear surrounding ultra light backpacking interesting exotic materials dynamic fabric where's dynamic fabric i don't know i have uh all my fabric right here that i i don't want to pull anything down it's all going to fall over but um i always keep an eye out online for like uh discontinued discounted clearance like heavy duty cloths and that i can make stuff out of and i have rolls and rolls of the stuff and every once in a while yeah i'll make like a shirt or pants or something with pockets or a bag or whatever yeah that's that's really cool jamey internet or no happy international mensday jamey always nice to see you building your world well thanks man is it international mensday well that's cool i didn't know but i'm gonna try to be manly maybe i should grow more beard i got some manly stubble right it's good enough um question wait uh i missed something oh yeah okay about bonding knowledge experience and projects compound in pursuit of these things one one can take an outside of the parameters of pre-established avenues of shared life experiences there's a bit of a mistake in this sentence yeah but i think i know what you mean uh shawn says question what is the last thing you watch someone else build that you thought was interesting how do you interact with your audience other than these lives well i don't interact with my audience that much other than these lives i don't usually read comments because i mean comments on youtube it'll be like this is what usually happens if i put a video up on youtube if i check the comments within minutes it's all positive stuff you know but if i wait like an hour then it just seems to devolve and it's it's like the trolls have a have a timer or something i don't know um so i don't i don't read the comments there or respond to them i i just feel like this is this is kind of the best way to interact with my audience because we can interact with each other you know um and i can respond on the spot you know it's it yeah i think this is the best way um what other ways i mean i've sometimes people come to visit a few people have come to visit here and when i lived in vermont people visited more frequently because it was easier to get there for a lot of people um yeah so there's some some in-person um conversations and stuff but mostly mostly this yeah and then you know whenever i make a video i'm always thinking about the audience i agree with your autism comments but the environment for kids has clearly dramatically changed and some of those directions are impacting kids heavily it doesn't seem clear which i don't know if that continues but um yeah they well the the environment for kids is terrible today i mean this this whole thumb thing oh my god that's horrible and you know i wouldn't even say that you know having access to computers or you know screens in general is is a totally bad thing i think it should definitely not be an all-day thing like like kids today are just like all day on their phone or the tablet that's that's just horrible but like like when i was a kid well even when i was a kid i think there was too much tv do you remember tv's a big box anyway but if you if you if you if you didn't get sucked into watching tv all the time um you know if you spent some time playing video games for example or just watching shows that there were shows still that had some some positive messages and stuff um but one thing one thing that was really cool when i was a kid was video games when i was a kid video games were hard and a lot of you guys know exactly what i'm talking about like and you didn't and you didn't get access to like a thousand games you get like one game and that was your game for like three months you know so you get you get one game and you play it and you die right away and it was hard but you didn't have another game to just jump over and just start playing another game so you try again and you try again and you keep trying and you start getting better at this this game that was impossible to me any and it it it taught us to to keep trying and you know to improve and get better at stuff um but today the way video games are at least the the video games i've seen kids playing and adults actually you know adult children playing these games the games are just dumb like they're just like you just deactivate your brain and just like poke the screen endlessly go go go go you know it's it's not they're not challenging like they used to be um you're not you're not you're not you're not you're not using your brain in a way that's going to make it grow you know you you're making it you're using your brain in a way that's atrophying it anyway yeah that's that's one of the big problems with the the environment today it's just it's all this electronic stuff man turn it off what is your view of cannibals oh no cannabis what is your view of cannabis i don't know i've never i've never smoked any weed smoked smoked smoked any weed or anything i've never done any of that stuff um i guess it's just not it's not part of my worldview um i don't i think i don't have any opinion on other people uh you know using marijuana or whatever um i would have an opinion on my kids taking any kinds of drugs but yeah i don't know it's just not part of my it's not part of my world so i guess i just don't have that much i could say about it my friend have asperger and some people say that it's same wait my friend have asperger and some people says that it's same nope it's not same asperger is more lighter version from autism i've been i've been well many times people have presumed that i have asperger's because you know asperger's is is one of the first thing that people try to stick to you when they realize you're smart and i don't i don't have any problem with having asperger's or not having asperger's you know before i was in high school and got tested by all those psychologist things some people said oh you have asperger's and i was like all right i guess i have asperger's and then you know i went through the test and like yeah you don't you don't have any of that stuff um so i don't have any opinion on whether or not it's good i don't know i just you know i think i think people often get get too focused on things like what type of personality are you which what's your where are you on the spectrum what label can we stick to you i think i'm i think a more important question that needs to be asked much more often that's much more valuable and useful is are you a good person like are you a good person is a much more useful question than what label can we stick to you because if you're if you're a good person or if you're a bad person that gives you that you you can strive to become a better person regardless of whether what other label you are you can be autistic you can be retarded you can be asperger's you can you can have half a brain you can always try to make yourself better that's a much much better thing to think about i think i think oh when i start talking for like an hour and a half i start slurping my words all over the place so excuse me i must have i must have speciitis long term speciitis i can only speak for so long before i start but i do try to be a good person yeah exactly how i meant the city comment the right neighborhood in a city you would thrive it's it's not just the right neighborhood it's got to be the right city because i can't just huddle up in a neighborhood and ignore what's going on in the city around me i've it's got to be the right city and the right neighborhood it is hard to find the right spot but i'm sure it's in your future to find an incredible spot i think i i like my spot you don't i'm not moving to a city if that's what you're guessing that would that would be i mean i'm not saying it's impossible that i would ever live in a city again but it's it's pretty unlikely about mental disease diagnosis another factor to consider is pollution estrogen and plastics pesticide diet bombardment with caustic media yeah all all of the above are problems and uh it's so frustrating to see to see the solution to all these problems is just to be like wow let's let's put you on the spectrum somewhere and now we've solved the problem no we need we need to clean up the world we need to fix the environment we need to fix the the way children are raised are having parents again this whole oh it's it's so hard to not swear i'm not swearing on this channel it's really hard to not swear when talking about this stuff but like the whole thing about broken families like i came from a broken family and it sucks and like i didn't know how much it sucked when i was a kid is the thing and it's it wasn't until i i went through my life and i kept seeing things like oh that's because i didn't have a dad around oh that's because i didn't have a mother and i had parents they were just too busy being divorced and hating each other and trying to be single parents and you know that they they didn't have the time or the energy or whatever to actually be parents so there was so much stuff that i missed and you know as i've gone through life i've i've i've noticed so many things that could have easily been solved if i just had had that parent there to teach me this thing like you could have taught me this so easily and i actually thought of it i thought of an example this is not the best example but it's just the one that popped into my head one day when i was like i don't know like 35 years old or something i was visiting my dad i'm in his garage and i'm i'm using it a tap like as in a tap and die you know putting threads into a hole so the screw's going so i'm using a tap and i'm like hey dad you know if you if you run the tap forward like half a turn then go back a quarter turn and then go forward half a turn backward it really works it really works really well with these things and he looks at me and he's like well yeah that's that's how you do it and i'm like wait how long have you known this he's like well that's that's how you do it and i'm like you could have taught me this when i was like 12 years old anyway let's see schools make cubicle slaves yeah george carlin did a really good thing about this i think it was like 2005 or something like that i mean george carlin's dead now he was awesome he he really he was hilarious and really good social commentary that's totally relevant today my daughter's teachers thinks she needs to sit still and not be silly oh god oh my god i just want to take your teachers and throttle them oh what like children sit still and don't be silly what the like what what are we doing like he hears stuff like that like that's what that's all i can think it's like what what are we doing like why why do we doing with our society what what what the oh children don't be silly that that's that's that's our big modern advancement you know in education children don't be silly oh children don't be children oh my god it's it's so unbelievably idiotic now one expectation of a kindergartener is count to 100 with zero mistakes if you mess up stop you failed oh oh it's so dumb it's so dumb like whoa the only reason to put that kind of pressure on something on just a meaningless task like that is to get them ready for for for factory work office work where they just have to you know type a whole bunch of numbers not make a mistake like do that kind of crap and i don't mean counting to 100 is not not a useful thing it's not an important thing but putting that a totally unnecessary pressure on someone you can't make a single mistake it's totally dumb it's it's so dumb you know a couple weeks ago i was out digging and moving dirt with my wheelbarrow and my son was hanging out with me and he was doing a bit of digging too and he was like he just started counting and i don't i don't remember what he counted up to but it was like for an hour he was just counting and you know and anytime he made a mistake he'd be like 128 130 129 you like oh yeah sorry 129 103 yeah he catches little mistakes and you know help him and you go through and he put so much stuff together that day like like at the beginning after at 99 he was like wait what's that you're 99 100 but then wait what's after 100 and at first it was real slow and then you know i tell him 101 102 like so it just goes like 103 104 105 yeah you know you get up to like 120 and he'd be like what comes after 120 i'd be like what comes after 20 or no after 29 sorry what comes after 29 you know like we'll come be like what comes after 129 and he'd be like well what comes after 29 and he's like 30 and he's like so 100 and he's like oh so it's just the same like 130 and by the time he got up to like 300 he was just going he didn't need any help you know but to to punish him every time he stumbled would have ruined that whole learning experience it wouldn't have taught him the numbers and all the stuff he learned that day just just going through the numbers and and just being helped along little bits here and there and then he then he's like oh i get it so every time every 100 is just you go through the whole set of numbers again just the same way and he wouldn't have gotten all that if i if i just cut him off like oh it's so frustrating oh ju like i someone deleted message i want to see what it is why can't i look at the deleted messages view deleted message it won't let me click it have you or will you build a foundry to melt metal i have at one point in the past all right mr landfill what did judy write that you had to block i kind of want to know um anyway a few brand names for dyneema is the modern lightweight cross braided fabric that's this is the brand name a few brand names oh you're saying there are a few different brand names for dyneema okay it's a modern lightweight cross braided fabric that's super strong and lightweight ultralight community uses it and for high tech sales that's cool are you talking about the ultralight like airplane community um i want to know what judy spiser said was she selling shoes or something anyway i asked an ai brian says i asked an ai before a lot has happened since then where do you stand on ai and ai safety well the whole ai thing oh there's so much to talk this is like you should have asked this like an hour ago and i would have talked for like an hour about it um let's see well you know ai is a concern like an artificial intelligence that gets smarter than us and gets to the point where it can do basically anything you know um like if it gets to the point where it just exponentially becomes more intelligent like a self-learning thing like we don't know what's gonna happen like anything could happen with that it could just decide that we're bugs in the way and we need to be gotten rid of or it could decide that oh here's here's something interesting in the universe this human species and life in general on this planet let's not interfere with that let it keep doing its thing let's go do something else you know maybe pay attention to that once in a while but that's that's not really part of our world world view anymore because we're like going you know who knows who knows what's gonna i don't know what's gonna happen with the whole ai thing the way i think about the ai is i just don't worry about it because there's nothing i can do about it um i'm not i think there's i think ai is overused for one i think human should think more for themselves that's that's not an ai safety comment it's just a just about ai in general like i think i don't i don't want computers doing thinking that i can do for myself you know i mean no if i if i use a calculator to calculate something fine but i i don't want a computer driving for me for example i don't want a computer like making making like life decisions for me and stuff like that i didn't know because we're gonna dumb ourselves down to to the point where we can't even ah it's just gonna be idiocracy you know saw that a school in florida flat out banned phones and it made everything way better student engagement general happiness i totally believe that yeah completely um yeah that totally makes sense um you know the year i spent building this house when i just went offline and i was like you know i'm just gonna focus on building this house like i was i was going through a really difficult situation like every day i was working hard hard i was like maxing out just trying to eat as much as i could to keep up with the energy i was using every night i was just so tired i was like can i i just want to go to bed but i was like no no i gotta spend half an hour stretching so i can get up tomorrow and lift all the heavy stuff again and again and again and you know it was grueling but it was also amazing because of the experience and a lot of it a lot of the reason it was amazing is i just didn't have any outside influence you know it was just it was just me doing my thing it was super cool if you've never had the experience of just unplugging for like a year or even a month man do it i i totally recommend like just just disconnect from the internet for a month and just see what it does it's it's really cool experience like you turn back into a human you know you start becoming a human again it's really cool do you ever visit the states no either for shopping family or other reasons no i haven't been to this i haven't left panama since i got here um have you tried dwarf fortress it has its own kind of fun i have not i i know what dwarf dwarf fortress is i mean i know a little bit um it's this video game that's super complicated and once i found that out i was like i don't have time for anything like that i have i have too many other things to do um question who are the adventure builders in your community that you watch i don't watch anyone um i don't i don't even watch youtube videos or anything i mean i'll watch a little bit of stuff here and then but it's like i generally speaking for me the internet is off most of the time um and when i turn on the internet is generally to upload a video to you know put a picture on instagram or something and then i get off occasionally i'll you know just start poking around um but i don't do that that often i i don't i don't watch any youtube stuff regularly or anything like that you know maybe when i'm super old and i'm just like chilling at home waiting to die i don't know maybe then i'll watch more stuff um i do watch movies now now and then um yeah but i don't i don't really watch any stuff i've been on a lentil wave and you know what the thing is i don't want to watch adventure builders i want to have them in my life i have one friend i have one good friend who i would say is is pretty adventure builder and that's awesome it's awesome hanging out with them okay i've been on a lentil wave lentils chili pepper or cayenne garlic ginger and a bunch of whole carrots and a pot pour over coconut oil basil red onion and chopped leafy greens and then an entire line well that sounds delicious spin fuse eight lentils yesterday um i'm gonna have to confess something i call lentils cardboard confetti because i don't know that's just what they seem like to me it's like eating cardboard confetti i'll i'll have lentils once in a while and i i shouldn't i have had lentils that were actually really good but i guess i don't i don't make them up often enough to really have have mastered lentils you give me some black beans i can make black beans taste amazing uh yeah maybe i should maybe i should get more into the lentils it's just whenever i have a lentil versus black beans or red beans option i always take the beans um also why and i've been fed really bland lentils several times i think that's actually the issue anyway also why has it always seemed to me that canadians are more well adjusted and sociable than americans i'm american ah not true uh canadians are no better um no better adjusted than americans canadians i think okay canadians fake it a lot i think they're better at faking it and one of the things that i learned about canadians after moving out of canada i didn't i didn't catch on to this when i was still living in canada maybe i had some suspicions but i didn't really catch on to like been living out of outside of canada for a while and i grew up in canada you know um um canadians are nice to your face but when you leave the room oh my god canadians will trash talk like you would not believe like oh it's brutal and i'd been i'd been living in the united states for like five years so i was out of canada for for several years when i was hanging out with a canadian friend and his family and they were oh the trash talking oh it was unbelievable and like someone would would come in the room oh hi how you doing yeah everything's getting it and then they leave the room oh can you believe that oh my gosh and this is not no this person and they trash talk um and it was always ask a canadian about americans americans so stupid they're such idiots and they're such they're so backwards they're so oh it's it's oh the trash talking canadians will do obviously if you're an american and you ask a canadian what they think of americans oh you think they're great but if if you hear their conversation when you're not around oh it's brutal anyway uh canadians are not better adjusted than americans definitely i wouldn't say one or the other is better um i think there are differences like an american will insult you to your face and a canadian will insult you behind your back that's the main difference my daughter has been diagnosed with dysphagia sorry my english i'm from finland i don't know what dysphagia is i should probably i don't know i'm not going to try to guess um wait what's this deleted message anyway um yeah i don't know what dysphagia is i don't mind if my friend have asperger symptoms he is still a good friend and we come along yeah i don't care if people have uh asperger or whatever i yeah that's the thing i don't care what people's label is i don't care what what mental illness thing or or diagnosis or whatever like i care if you're a good person or not that's that's the most important thing real talk about broken families yeah man broken families they are so you don't you know back in the day when people got married it was a legal contract like you got married to this person it was a legal contract a binding contract and a lot of the reason that contract was there probably probably the main reason it was there was that so you could have children together and raise them together because if you just had kids with some random person they might leave you might be i mean you know then you're a single parent and you can only do half as good a job if that you know but back in the day you know it was like okay look we want to have a family together right that means once we have kids neither of us can leave like we got like if we're if we're going into this we're in it for the long haul so there's this legal contract you're you you get married and you are together now there were there were ways to get divorced if there is you know but it was wasn't easy today though it's like oh let's get married just on a whim and then if i just feel like getting divorced well well it doesn't matter it's easy peace cake and often people get paid for the divorce the the parent who leaves will get paid the parents often the parents staying oh has to pay the the parent who left it's so insane like not only is not only is that social contract that legal contract just gone you're actually encouraged to break it and the reasons for this i could get into it's just there there are people who make money and get a lot of power out of destroyed families and it's it's sickening it's so disgusting uh if you are upset about broken families broken families will seem like paradise compared to what's coming kids raised by chat gpt tutors it's going it's going to approach the absolute limit of degeneracy well yeah i mean it's that's just an extension that's just part of broken families you know i'm i'm still going to be upset about broken families when when the kids are being raised by the computer just it's the same thing it's just oh we we need we need to if the human race is going exist and keep existing in any positive way we have to have parents raising children like it it just doesn't work without that like the the species doesn't work without that maybe if we make it enough years evolution will kind of have enough time to change us enough that we don't need parenting anymore and we just become a different thing but that's that's a long that's a long haul to wait for that to happen schools breed factory they don't breed factory workers they they train factory workers but yeah they train factory workers and obedient drones that don't question authority yep like the walkway run video thanks man um we're getting a lot of deleted messages here mr landfill what are you deleting here uh it is the anti-semite hydrofoil guy oh i i don't know um cuban fiber is also wait where are we going um okay sorry let's just jump cuban what is cuban fiber c o c u b e n is really good or is a really cool material great for sales an extremely lightweight cuban fiber he still has one account watching ai is skynet like the terminator yeah maybe um yeah maybe ai is just gonna wipe us out who knows who knows what's gonna happen with that i guess we'll we'll see arc 212 see you next time jayme thanks for the hosting and the visit you and everyone else catch you later arc have a good day arcs and mechina sewing machine repair i haven't seen you in a while man how's it going hi jayme it's been a while i hope you're doing well i'm pretty good you know i can't say everything's perfect but yeah things are going pretty well in general i mean there are definitely problems but yeah i'm going um let's see where are we hey jayme you haven't been watching much lately any progress on upper floors in the dome not well not direct progress i have not built anything for the dome i've been eyeballing some trees to cut though like like ones that have fallen down in in you know wind storms and stuff there's some there's some oh god i wish i could identify them i wish i knew what kind of trees they were and what the wood was so yeah there's a there there are a couple big big trees in my jungle right now on the ground and i should be able to get a good look at the leaves of those ones but i don't know they didn't look i think they were trees that were garbage so i gotta look around anyway i'm getting to the point where i'm starting to look at logs that i could actually cut up for the upper floors so marriage is money grab yeah my marriage has largely become a money grab and it's uh it's so frustrating it's like yeah it's like the our society now is just like trying to self-destruct you know like a lot of people are it's like a lot of people who've just given up you know on any kind of goodness or or we're doing good in the world and our society is like on this self-destruct thing um and it's frustrating because when things get to a certain point they're gonna get bad enough that people are gonna be like oh wow i wish we knew how bad it was gonna get when we were taking it for granted and you know crapping on everything because things are if things keep going downhill they'll get to they'll get to a point where it's really really bad you know for some people things are already really bad but anyway regarding ai it is amazing i have co-workers who don't actually write emails to clients and instead use chat gpt yeah i i don't think that's amazing i think i think that's disgusting what's what's the point of the emails then i mean if it's if it's an email that's just gonna answer like like a technical question or something fine but i i think this there's a fine line between ai being useful and ai just being used to to to live our lives instead of us living like i want to live my life i don't want a computer doing it for me you know i i want to live my life i would experience the difficulties and the pain and the risk and i want to i want to fall flat on my face sometimes because i've screwed up and then get up and figure out how to fix it and and move forward like that's what life is and so much of life today for people is just avoiding risk of any kind and what's happening is people are just not living at all like they're they're just they're just hanging out in their in their house on their couch just staring at their computer not living life and not not doing anything and when ai starts getting used for that or automation starts getting used that or just technology in general starts getting used to replace people's life experience then it's it's not harmful it's not amazing at all it's it makes me wonder why why we made this stuff in the first place you know Cuban fiber is apparently a real thing and not just carbon fiber from Cuba dysphagia a developmental language disorder or special language difficulty means a disorder or language means a disorder of language development uh yeah that's gotta be tough to deal with but you know i guess the thing i think about more is it's you good person you know keep keep trying keep keep struggling through things sometimes there will be things that are hard to deal with and you just gotta figure them out and if you can't figure them out do your best and that's all you can do you know um a person may have language problems wait a person may have language problems either in understanding or producing speech or both that is true oh if you have dysphagia yeah i recently saw a video about using cans as aluminum aluminum roofing material in your area do you have access to that might be a nice thing for your campground i would be a little bit wary of that because metal corrosion is a big thing here and now those cans are so thin i don't i would want to i don't know maybe it would work though but i would want to do a test first because i've heard stories from people around here who who said things like okay so there's one guy who had a penny on his roof his metal roof and he didn't notice the penny at first like it fell out of someone's pocket or something there's there's a penny on his roof and he noticed it because he looked up and there was a hole that was being eaten through because of the reaction between the copper and the and the the zinc and the steel and whatever you just it melted through and it didn't take long and he figured out the last time someone had been up on the roof was not that long i don't remember how long he said it was but it was pretty quick that it that it just ate through because you know there's salt water and all this stuff and it's humid and blah blah blah but yeah i i i'd want i'd want to see someone testing that here or maybe i'd have to test it myself i don't know edward hi jamie how's it going man uh brian says your videos are so helpful because they show it's possible to do stuff like jamie island yeah before i did this it seemed totally impossible they helped me to build my house by myself thanks that's awesome that's super awesome man um yeah that's super cool isn't it isn't awesome living in your own house that you built yourself ah it's like if you haven't done it it's an experience that you can't really describe to someone like build your build your own house and then live in it it's amazing hi jamie thank you for having lunch with me uh your house was very nice i hope your kids had fun with the bug zappers i gave them ed ed how's it going man um yeah it was great um ed came he came to visit here and he brought a whole bunch of chicken which was super cool it took me forever to cook it because i was not prepared but it was i was like i was happy totally happy with a pile of chicken um yeah it was great uh try a small roofing project with the cans and see how it works out yeah i don't have any i'd have to go to town i mean i could i could get my hands on cans i'm pretty sure i've actually been thinking about making a stainless steel building thinking about it anyway they used the tabs too to help anchor the cans and shingles interesting what kind of what kind of fasteners like regular nails um anyway i should probably shut up now i've been going on for over two hours and someone must be getting tired of hearing me talk and i'm starting to slur my words i've been talking so much and i hope everyone has an excellent day and you know when you run into when you run into situations that are difficult don't give up man keep keep trying sometimes you just break through these little barriers and you don't even you don't even realize which barrier was holding you back you know uh in plumbing systems if a copper pipe is directly connected to a steel or iron pipe pipe once a contact uh once in contact both materials have electric current that makes that takes place at the anode and cathode of the pair of metals yeah all right tomaters yeah okay uh i'm gonna get out of here i'm gonna go get a drink of water because i'm mildly parched i don't usually talk this long believe it or not okay everyone has an excellent morning or evening or afternoon or whatever you've got wherever you've got it
