What fuel do you prefer (gas, diesel, propane, nat gas?, how much can you store?, what is your worse case scenario for how long the generator has to run all of this?) Runnning the HVAC in addition to everything else adds some serious load!

I have had great success with WinCo especially with Honda engine. However I opted for propane as my fuel as I could install a large underground tank. (I do not run the HVAC, just lights, freezers, refrigerator, lights and all personal electronics.) I also have significant solar and battery storage.

Lots of planning and tradeoffs to consider to size things correctly.

Orthodoxy (1908) is G.K. Chesterton. A curated list of its 10 best ideas by Jash Dholani

1. Love precedes lovability: "Men did not love Rome because she was great. She was great because they had loved her." A "primary devotion" to a place, thing, or person is the source of the creative energy that transforms it. Begin with love, not scorn.

2. Modern streets are "noisy with taxicabs and motorcars," but that's the noise of "laziness and fatigue," not activity. If everyone walked, streets would be quieter but more alive. Modern thought is like a modern street - noisiness, long words, loud ideas...hiding laziness.

3. The paradox of fairytales: "All the beauty of a fairy-tale lies in this: that the prince has a wonder which just stops short of being fear. If he is afraid of the giant, there is an end of him; but also if he is not astonished at the giant, there is an end of the fairytale."

4. How to think about the environment around us: "This is not a world, but rather the material for a world. God has given us not so much the colors of a picture as the colors of a palette. But he has also given us a subject, a model, a fixed vision."

5. Healthy men have bandwidth for superfluity: "It's the happy man who does the useless things; the sick man isn't strong enough to be idle. It's exactly such careless and causeless actions that the madman could never understand...he generally sees too much cause in everything."

6. Old humility v/s New humility: "The old humility made a man doubtful. about his efforts, which might make him work harder. But the new humility makes a man doubtful about his aims, which will make him stop working altogether." There's such a thing as toxic humility...

7. Art requires limitations: "The essence of every picture is the frame. If you draw a giraffe, you must draw him with a long neck. If, in your bold creative way, you hold yourself free to draw a giraffe with a short neck, you'll really find that you're not free to draw a giraffe."

8. It is impossible to critique without standards. Chesterton: "When little boys in the street laugh at the fatness of some distinguished journalist, they are unconsciously assuming a standard of Greek sculpture."

9. Why its anti-democratic to ignore tradition: "Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking about."

10. Chesterton on the emptiness of the atheist's worldview: He has "nothing to show us except more and more infinite corridors of space lit by ghastly suns and empty of all that is divine." We need more than that to live...

You have the power to do so now if you focused on it, but there would be negative consequences for you. Do you mean you would do it if there were no negative consequences for you, or do you mean having the knowledge that this happens, you would do it relentlessly if it threatened you and yours?

Great reading list from Jeff Booth incase you haven't run across it #Bookstr

"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." - Frederic Bastiat archive.org/details/econom…

If you're KYCing your customers for Bitcoin (or anything else), fines for losing kyc info is a basic bitch cost of doing business. Make loosing KYC info the norm. Make nonkyc the standard!!!

"The world you live in is slowly shrinking. there's a tiny group of men who are buying it and stripping it naked and selling you what they extract. They are raping your world and selling you what they take. I mean they sell you the water you drink, the air you breathe and you line up for it like sheep. They will kill your brother and steal your child and pollute everything you love.

Without Bitcoin you'll never noticed because your so hypnotized by a world that doesn't exist. What a waist of my fucking time.

Do you have any idea what's happening in the world you live in? Do you think a photo on your screen has anything to do with that word?"

Mike Murdock was always asking his viewers to donate $1,000 each, specifically to put it on their credit cards: "If your having credit card problems sow a $ 1000 seed on your credit card and wait for relief from your problem”

"As you use your faith, God is going to wipeout your credit card debts."

“Some of you are in debt and don’t have a thousand dollars to give. God wants you, by faith, to put the $1000 on your credit card.”

Soft money has always creates shit humans. Shit humans always seek out soft brained humans. Televangelist were a huge American cultural phenomenon back in the day.

If people are cool, then they are not stressed. I pity the fool that don't be cool.
