Nah. Look back to plan forward. The only mediums that have so far stood the test of time are pottery, stone carvings, and cave drawings.
The world is entirely too fragile electrically to rely upon anything electronic to store valuable data... Not to mention Moore's Law obsoleting everything we use today within a decade or two.
If this were true, the government wouldn't hide it's deep dark secrets with SHA-256 out of fear that adversaries (and their spies) could crack it.
Rosetta stone level transfer of knowledge for time-distant human-like species to better understand whatever it is that outlasts my life on Earth.
As a kid growing up, my father wore a coon hat kinda like this. So now that I'm a father it feels fitting to take the reins with my kid. Gotta make sure I carry on the tradition and be the Dad in the kid group with the screws a little loose.
The timber frame bench is finally done! The project morphed into a flooring project and larger laundry room and bathroom update. 😅
The wood used for the top is a farm special mystery species. The tree was standing dead when we bought the place, it fell over in a storm and a few years later I finally got it moved to the log pile. It experienced a bit of decomposition, but still mostly good. I was questioning it's beauty at this stage. The rot and staining really challenged my drive and vision.
The glue up stage is the most stressful part of this project. It could make it break it and ruin hours of work. It didn't go great, but I got the job done. Oak dowels were added to give additional strength to the wide bench top.
Hand planing the uneven edges to get them close and then finishing off with a portable belt sander to final finish.
I came up with this sliding dovetail design for friction fit to the frame. My dream was always to build a project without any metal fasteners--this is actually my second project meeting that goal. Some day I'd love to build an entire home without any metal for structural support. The idea is that wedges get driven between the sides of the frame and these dovetail blocks.
Final prep with rounding the edges, filling gaps and imperfections.
Staining using some chestnut oak color. Definitely adds some pop and beauty to this otherwise unimpressive wood.
Complete!
At home, matched with the timber frame shelf!
Would suggest doing more research using the resources mentioned. I'm pretty deep in this rabbit hole at this point. It's all backed by peer reviewed science and even the IPCC is changing their models based on the growing body of indisputable scientific discoveries happening.
I'm not here to persuade anyone. Like Bitcoin, you'll figure it out when you're ready.
The lights you see are caused by large explosions on the sun's surface ejecting material into space--called solar flares which hit the Earth within 30 minutes causing all kinds of communications and electrical grid issues (search the Carrington event of 1859) and then a few days later the coronal mass ejection material hits us which is what causes the lights. If you're in an airplane when a major solar flare hits you receive the equivalent of an entire years worth of solar radiation in that instance (ie cancer, damage to your DNA) At scale these explosions could swallow the Earth, sometimes a few times over depending upon size.
They are rated on a scale with X class being the largest. The sun released several X class flares over the past week, which isn't exactly common and solar activity is actually the primary driver of weather on Earth--the reason Milton intensified so quickly if because the sun experienced an X class flare almost every day this past week. The only protection we have on earth from these events is our magnetic field, which is significantly weakening due to pole shift (the N and S poles are moving) and galactic current sheet activity (the effects of this can be seen throughout the planets of our solar system already). With the magnetic shield weakening these sun events are causing more damage on Earth with smaller sizes events.
An X20 or so solar flare could be strong enough to cause a killshot--complete power grid failure for the 25% of the Earth directly facing the sun upon it's release. We've experienced about 3 solar flares this year in the x7-10 range, including back to back 7 and 9s last weekend. Yesterday's CME storm was the highest I've seen since paying attention at KP8, and that was an X1+ flare. When they got back to back is particularly bad because Earth is mostly unprotected from the second wave.

Yes, I agree that less regulation = more productive jobs. I'm certainly not defending the position I'm stating, but that's the situation we currently operate in IMO. But I'd think more people working the productive jobs could create more competition, lowering prices, lowering GDP 🤷
A not inconsequential percentage of all employment is employment created by regulation. More regulation = more jobs = more GDP = more taxes and debt carrying capacity.
Especially when the markets freak out over the differences of 1% or less in changes to unemployment numbers.
It's all a house of cards with minimal ACTUAL PRODUCTION and an over abundance of government employment and jobs required to meet regulation and oversight.

Because we're grown ups now. It's not though. Every minute you Vite with your time and energy, that's what is the most important of your life time. Your lifetime could end today and the machine will keep churning.
Defund them with Bitcoin.

Voting = consent to be governed by the outcome.
More tax professionals doing more services for businesses to generate revenue.
This. And regulation, like a complicated tax system, increases GDP.

Because beef.
We tried lemon trees a couple of years. They died. Gave that up. Maybe try again for the pole shift atrium 🤷

Share this one with your friends when they claim these intense hurricanes are the result of human led climate change. That's just flat out misinformation and the government agencies (NOAA, NASA) know it, but they let the political narrative live on.
Our star has been producing X class (the strongest, most severe like a hurricane level 5) solar flares on a regular basis for the past week or so in the lead up to hurricane Milton's rapid intensification. Our star is not typically THIS active. This has a direct effect on Earth's weather, volcanic activity, etc.

Initial reaction was cheese, but the edges of some pieces don't have the orange like color on them and resemble that of pork chops or scrapple.
