I'm not kidding when I say we could have built utopia a thousand years ago if we really wanted to. But rich people have to keep making money, so, too bad... -_-

Si Dawson@Angle wellllll, REALLY makes me want to own my own home, so I can actually DO this kinda thing. Man, that would be SO good. I love the hell out of this kind of thing.
(although yes, couldn't agree more with your point about it all. Uggggghhhh)
@sidawson Mmm. It does sound neat... It's all a lot of work though, and a fair bit of expense. And given how unstable the world feels right now, well. I dunno about that investment. :/
@Angle yeaaaah, true that.
That said, $50 an and afternoon putting something together? That feels like a very worthwhile use of time/money (since electric etc bills are rapidly rising)
@sidawson Mmm true! Though depending on the tools and skillset you have available, it might take more than an afternoon. And this does involve cutting holes in your house, so you'd better make sure you know what you're doing. And then You have to make sure you don't end up with an HOA levying fines against you and ordering you take it down or whatever... :/
