David Zimbeck who created Bitbay and BitHalo showed this to us years ago as a creative way to bypass the censors. Steganography should be used much more today than it is. I'd think the client would have to be constantly looking for incoming images then trying to decode. I'm not sure there is a way to encrypt or password protect though as anyone can try to decode the image.

Trying out new hay tarps to preserve the hay without storage in a building.

Thanks to nostr:npub1szlawrnh4kzvq9yfuegvpz0ws8h5zywea4n2d4zf3kdd3g9tenwqnqn3du for the tip on using pallet covers as hay tarps for 4x4 round bales. Putting this new hay taping method to the test. In the past, we've used large used billboard tarps to cover many bales of hay at once all stacked together. Managing the large tarps proved to be too difficult to maintain its longevity and we found ourselves replacing them ever couple years. With plenty of moldy hay in the meantime as the tarp degraded. I'm now trying to cover each individual bale of hay with a $20 pallet tarp. It's perfectly sized to fit over a 4x4 round bale of hay. The idea is that we will tarp individual bales with the pallet covers then tarp over the whole group of bales with the degraded billboard tarp to better protect the pallet cover tarps. Then when we use a bale we can easily fold up and properly store the pallet covers. Hopefully this method ends up lasting until we finally build a proper barn for hay storage.

Very cool! I'm glad you figured something out. I will say that if you can find free pallets on Craigslist of wherever the bales get barely any mold if you can roll the bales onto them. I scored a big stack of 12 foot pallets that I can get 3 bales on each.

Depends, if a person has never had beer or very limited amounts then their frame of reference is small enough that they non-alc beers could taste good, but for anyone who drinks beer they really aren't that good. There are a lot of pretty good session beers that are really low abv but still contain alcohol.

Yesterday morning I found our gate had popped loose again so this time I fixed it correctly so it won't happen again. Instead og the hinge pins both facing up they now face each other and lock the gate in place.

I have the sheetrock cut out and half installed in the whole in the wall. Today I have to clean out behind the tub before I can install the bottom piece then try and make my used laminate work for replacing the stuff that got water damaged.

Ordered myself an S9 after seeing the note yesterday about them being for sale. $96 w/pwr supply shipped and I paid with lightning, so Thursday I should have my glorified house heater up and running.

I went to the Chiro and holy balls is my spine messed up. I have a LOT of work to do to get it to some semblance of normal but the process is started so I can only get better from here.

Morning people get more shit done! There's less people up to bother us or distract us.

Thankfully my head was not being stabbed by the spear so I was able to get the electrical wiring done for the new outlet and light switch. I've wanted to do this change for 15 years but never wanted to cut the wall open. The water leak forced my hand and gave me the opportunity to get it done. I was very thankful for the predrilled hole in the header that allowed me to easily run the wire into the attic. Today I will work on getting the sheetrock put back in.

I have FINALLY, for once in my life, actually finished a first draft of a story. I've managed to finish really short stories but never anything this long. 23,500 words is a novella length story that I got out in 8 days while it takes me a month to get the 50k for NaNoWriMo. I've got to take another big ladle full of the darkness in my head and pour it out into a new story which will hopefully keep it out of my head for good.

Yesterday was raining and dreary outside all day long. It was our Co-op's annual meeting mid day that I attended remotely and I am now no longer on the board as my second term was up which frees up that time each month.

#PDC Dutch Masters🎯 was on during the day and it's incredible to see Luke Littler at 17 giving MVG a real run for his money. MVG did the same sort of thing when he was 17 so it's like seeing the replacement showing up.

I moved wrong and the migraine🔪 exploded again. It's still there this morning as the right side of my body is just jacked and the pain is refusing to release my neck and head. Tomorrow I schedule a chiro appointment finally.

Now that's what English Football is! Never take the #hooligan out of the game no matter how hard they try. West Brom family section went off. Someone (fan) just walked off the field with med crew holding bandages to their head.

Yesterday was quite the repair day. I went to town and picked up the new shower faucet and all the plumbing parts I would need at Home Depot. Then my morning was spent cutting the old valve out and then piecing together the various parts for the new valve. I sweat all the pieces together and was able to get it all lined up so it fit perfectly when I installed it.

I had a leak in teh water system as well that had developed and before I turned the water back on I fixed it. I'm super happy I did as it was not far from failing and flooding our basement. The plumbing is all done now so the wall repair can commence.

Today is our co-op annual meeting so I won't get as much time to work on it but hope to have the wall fixed before Monday.

Pretty decisive matches so far. Smith is WAY off form, as is Barney.

Yesterday started out rough and it wasn't until mid day that I was able to get anything done around the #farm. I found that I finally have #seedlings in the greenhouse that are nearing popping out of the soil which I am relieved to see. I hope they will kick into gear now that the temps are more spring like.

After picking up our shirts for the race-that-wasn't in Deer Park I was home for a short while before we discovered the valve for the shower is leaking. The actual valve body not just a copper pipe. This requires a total replacement so I rigged a temp fix to get us through so I could leave the water on to the house overnight.

Today will be spent buying a new valve then getting it installed which will NOT be easy. At least I am capable of doing it all myself so can get it fixed right away and not be left waiting for a service call.
