They were minor hints mostly, but a lot of his annoyance seemed to stem from them not always taking his advice and how they weren't operating with efficiency, but rather trying to be decent humans. I think they went a bit over the top on the show, which detracted from my viewing of the show.

Yeah, same here. I've almost stopped watching it a few times, a lot of the sub themes around the crew were kinda stupid compared to the original books.

Grass roofs have been around for ages, but they require a lot of structural planning to deal with weight, water, and when they inevitably have to be replaced, they are more of a hassle. Whereas paint probably just needs to be repainted, or reflective metal roofs last longer while not being too hard to fix (need a radiant barrier, but still easier to work on).

"It isn't cheap" seems to be the biggest issue. Saw another video that showed it working, but he did say it was pretty expensive for paint.

Yoga and strength training help quite a bit, but I always found the biggest help was to sleep well. I found sleeping in a hammock basically got rid of any lower back pain, but I'm sure a good bed will help as well.

Make more opossum-like maybe, but I think it's still otherwise fine.

You're forgetting getting into the car, where that jumps to a -5pts for a few min.

Depends on what you're doing with them. If I'm listening to music and want fidelity, I use wired headphones (also with my Xperia 1 v), but if I'm at the gym I much prefer my Bluetooth headphones as they're generally easier to keep in my ears for long periods of time. Just a point of reference though, I'm not recommending the airpods style of Bluetooth headphones, I'm talking the older style wired connecting the two earpods and when you're not using them, they magnetically join together around your neck. They're actually pretty decent with Bluetooth 5.2, can get a couple of days of battery life and charge quickly over USB c if they're low.

I feel this is a very good unpopular opinion, as I think a lot of the annoyance about the fair phone not having a headphone jack is that they bill themselves as a sustainable phone maker who prides themselves as reducing waste and increasing repairability of their devices, something that dongles kinda fly in the face of from an ewaste perspective.

The same target group that they are aiming at generally likes stuff like expandable storage (so that they don't have to upgrade devices just to hold all their photos and stuff) and having a dead simple headphone jack so they can use one of the oldest standard ports in the world to use their headphones.

Since most newer phones have multiple days worth of battery life, I'm more than willing to sacrifice a few hours worth of runtime (maybe even a days worth) just to have a headphone jack. And you could say that I am in the minority of phone users, which is apparently true, however I'd argue I am pretty solidly in the target demographic for a fairphone, which I'm not getting due to the lack of a headphone jack. I instead, got a Sony Xperia 1 V (stupid name for a very nice phone) which offered a 3.5 mm, expandable storage, and decent repairability.

If the dac on the USB c adapter is cheap you can absolutely tell the difference. However, even apples USB c dac is decent, so that's not really too much of the main problem.

Found growing in a pot with a hibiscus plant, not entirely sure how it got there but the recent excessive rainfall has made it fruit.

 

Went on the Blue Ridge Parkway this week, and had a blast! The Parkway feels amazing with the top down, and all of the curves make for some interesting driving.

 

I recently took a trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway, and I got something I though y'all might enjoy along the way!
