I really want to build one of these. Gonna have to find blueprints for a CNC machine and a 3D printer first I guess.

If we can keep the internet from getting corporatized and segmented, we could have build guides for everything from basic hand tools, to metal foundries, to robotic equipment, just… on the internet for anyone to pick up and use to build their own tools. Starting from scratch, if they so desired. That would be cool.

Bi-Bi relationships.

can’t wait to flee a pack of these on my ATV after robbing a megafarm for my scrappy resistance group.

Red Scare chess: if two pawns remain deadlocked for four consecutive turns, both pawns are promoted to red queens which are controlled by neither player. After each player’s turn, one red queen moves. Red queens can:

• capture kings
• capture non-pawns
• convert an adjacent pawn to red queens

If a king is captured by a red piece, all their remaining pieces become red queens. the other player must eliminate all red pieces to win the game. It is possible for both players to lose.

I mean, diesel’s expensive too. Batteries already look tempting and I think they’re only going to look better as time goes on. The only real hurdle for me is the initial outlay for the new hardware.

Someone sat through one too many corny presentation jokes and decided to do something about it.
