<p>I have a beard. I like dinghys.</p><p>I'm up in sunny Heretaunga, just on the edge of town near orchards, its lovely. In my day job i'm a networking engineer I think. When not working I cook, try to produce more of our food in a wee garden, very slowly build a sailing dinghy and spend too much time on 'puter games.</p><p>Fediverse.info: <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/fedi22" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>fedi22</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/boatbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>boatbuilding</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/cooking" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>cooking</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://masto

What's more calm and peaceful than a group of friends chilling by a lake and singing a song talking about letting go at the end of a tough day. Taylor Ashton with Rachael Price (Lake Street Dive) - Strong Hands https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiS6Bmqe73E Also featuring many others i've spotted Louis Cato (currently Vulfpeck, formerly the Late Show), Theo Katzman (formerly Vulfpeck) #jukeboxFridayNight #peaceandcalm

If you do the YouTube thing and you'd like to watch a couple try to fix up the damage that a monoculture pine plantation has done to a hill, I highly recommend checking these videos out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXm67pwWYlU Its early on in the project but really interesting learning about our native plants (from a non-native!) and ways to re-wild & restore native plants to a damaged landscape.

While im getting excited about battery &amp; hybrid railcars, its worth noting that even diesel railcars are a way more efficient forms of transport than planes or busses. So even if we couldn&#39;t adopt the electrical tech now, we could still use railcars to reduce private passenger vehicle journeys &amp; thus overall energy consumption.
