Finally got a little knob for the rheostat that controls how many amps our engine's alternator gets to pump into our batteries :>. For now, I put little stickers so we know what the minimum(off, no charge) and max points are.

Eventually, we'll put markings on the wood to indicate the charging strength for each 'position'.

@rek "battery starting to cook" uh oh :blabcat:​

math blasterson

@rek This seems kind of silly given the risk it introduces.

What does a $600 marine regulator do that a $20 automotive one does not? Given the size of the engine you could probably use one from a garden tractor.

Most boat projects on 100r.co have updates appended to the end of the page. We like adding notes, so others can see how a project ages, and if a repair or change worked out or not.

To make it easier to find these updates, I added some links at the top of each page :>

Alexander Cobleigh

@rek really nice and simple way to make those updates more discoverable :3

R E K

For #finishit I'm going to...
▪️Finish a solar-cooking write-up for 100r.
▪️Advance a new, but quite
long, 14 page Hakum sequence.
▪️Redo an eye splice for Pino's anchor rode and document it :>!
▪️Make several playthroughs of Oquonie.

R E K

Completed Oquonie playthough, found lots of little bugs :>. Will play again later.

Moving onto the solar cooking write-up~! (Already started this a few days ago, but need to add more details, do more research, correct text, add drawings + photos etc).

R E K

Just released the list of changes and updates to the HundredRabbits projects for March!

@rek I'm really excited to read the solar cooker write up!

Just finished watching Trigun Stampede.
It was excellent. Loved what they did with the story. And some of the re-designs are very fun, love what they did with Zazie.

Bad Diode

@rek I watched the first episode and was really disappointed, the action and character design looked great but I was really put off by the rest of the animation and how they were unraveling the story. Didn’t think it was bad, just ok, maybe it’s not for me or nostalgia is clouding my vision. Would you say it gets better?

@rek Zazie dans le métro is one of my fav French movies vimeo.com/689921450

I really love living on Pino =^_^=

@rek I really hope that in some language, somewhere Pino means Rabbit Hole

...hukka.

@rek - Just being curious... What makes life on Pino so nice?

R E K

Completed a 12-page comic sequence named "Who did what".

Was a fun one. All of the Hakum comic stuff was done last summer while in Desolation Sound :). Crazy that we're in March, and I'm STILL not done processing everything.

Pino has fore running lights again! Running new wires through the boat to get those working was a big pain in the :puppycat_saying_butt:

It was a lot of wiring (9m, almost the whole length of the boat) just to get an LED working >_<...

@rek finally the techno party with stroboscopic light can happen, the marina will never be the same

5°C today, sun and clouds, no wind. Trying to solar cook some seitan :>... despite it being cold and slightly overcast, it is cooking~

Sun and clouds with an emphasis on 'clouds' XD... gonna have to leave it out for a long while today.

Yesterday's lunch :>. Mac and (faux)cheese!

'Cheese' sauce is just a quick mixture of tahini, garlic powder, dijon mustard, plant milk, turmeric powder(optional, but it adds color), and miso.

@rek 💚 Have you tried adding a bit of nutritional yeast? It’s a classic for vegan cheese flavor. What are those greens?

DELETED

@rek I tried it on a sandwich, it was nice. I must try it with pasta!

@rek thank you so much for posting your recipes, as someone who has recently become quite lactose-intolerant it is a great resource :D

One of the main reasons I like drawing comics is to draw expressions, especially extremes... like someone being very sad/happy/afraid, or mixed emotions, like a character being angry, but in a sad way.

It feels really nice when I can capture that feeling right =^__^= (I don't always get it).

I'm never sure what the best words for sound effects are in comics. I honestly don't care for "pow" for a punch. I'm probably the only one who thinks PAF! is appropriate, but I'm sticking with it XD.... 'paf' might be a french thing.
In any case, its got a lot of 'oomph' to it.

R E K

Kid Rek would be so impressed that I can draw hands now.

"You mean... you don't hide the hands behind a character's back, have them cross their arms over their chests, or have them wear mittens?!" :moomin_sparkles:

On a boat, saying that a project is going to be easy is like casting a curse on said project.

Chris Lesage

@rek it's taking longer than expected, as expected.

Started compiling notes about the DIY carbonation system we now have aboard our boat. The page also documents our previous system.

I plan to add more pictures, and details (+ drawings of how everything connects to each other, etc).

@rek I read this with interest. In the summer, I wonder if it’s possible to rig an evaporative cooling setup to decrease temperature in the vessel (like the principle used by a zeer pot)

DELETED

@rek The marine archaeologist in 2000 years is going to think this is an Antikythera Mechanism.

Drawing of our current setup, and of the bottle setup we used to have.

The term "man cave" needs to freakin' die :goose_honk:

@rek Agree even if I have some acquaintances that could be considered cavemen without the need for man cave.

@rek wow seriously? This is so amazing, I'm in love with the moomins since childhood.

Using a canning ring and seal to make a rice burger bun.

Step 1: pack the freshly-cooked sushi rice in a canning ring.
Step 2: put the seal of the canning ring overtop, and press down to compress the rice.
Step 3: Peel the seal off, and then flip the ring (and rice bun) so the edge is up on top. Then, gently, using the back of a spoon, push the rice patty out the ring.
Step 4: Voila! Pan-fry buns to add some crunch, repeat steps for more buns!

The rice bun burger we had, with some pan-fried tofu and sweet onions.

@rek whaaaat! well, I guess I know what I'm trying when I get back to school :D

Rek & Dev polaroid portraits, taken by @furiousgreencloud late last night on Galiano.

@rek @furiousgreencloud I guess it just didn't click when I saw your previous portraits, but... do you have actual rabbit masks? :Þ
