Swede’s Photographs<p>Good morning, friends. 🌻🌻🌻</p><p>5 December 2024</p><p>The electricity when out last night at about 8 P.M. and I forgot about it until this morning when I heard the generator still running as I let the dogs out ... in case you were wondering who. It is also raining cats and dogs; I know because I opened the door a few minutes ago and a couple of dogs ran inside. The trouble with letting dogs in out of the rain, is that once they get inside the door, they do that shaky thing where the skin on their bodies actually moves tossing loose water everywhere. The trouble with not letting them out is that they can only hold it for so long and then they are going to go.</p><p>"The most affectionate creature in the world is a wet dog." - Ambrose Bierce</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photo</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photographer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographylovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photographylovers</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/morning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>morning</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/generator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>generator</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/dogs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dogs</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/rain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rain</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/wetdogs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wetdogs</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/flowers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flowers</span></a></p>

saahbs<p>Nice clear post-frontal <a href="https://liberdon.com/tags/weather" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>weather</span></a> after the "Bomb Cyclone" passed with rain and reasonable wind.</p><p>Beforehand, I got the generator out for a 6mo run, it fired right up and I ran it for 20min to flush the carb.</p><p>As a test, I tried operating the fridge on <a href="https://liberdon.com/tags/generator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>generator</span></a>. This "1800W" Pulsar can run in non-power saving medium rpm mode &amp; governs up as load increases, BUT! not fast enough for fridge compressor to not stall. I would see 1000W for 3sec and then fridge would give up :/</p><p><a href="https://liberdon.com/tags/diy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>diy</span></a> ...continued...</p>
Jason Pettus :blobnom:<p>I'm curious to know more about this glitch with <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Google" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Google</span></a>'s <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/image" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>image</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/generator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>generator</span></a>, where it absolutely refuses to make pictures "in the style" of a specific artist, even one long dead. Here on the left, an actual picture of animals by Keith Haring, and on the right, what Google gave me when I asked for a picture of an animal "in the style of Keith Haring." I'm assuming this is on purpose, because the software otherwise works so flawlessly, so I'm surprised they do this even with dead artists.</p>
Mx. Luna Corbden<p>FYI it looks like New Egg also sells gas generators, so that's cool. But Harbor Freight is still local and I like what I picked out. But if anyone else is following this, they've got the Champion brand like Amazon but they aren't Amazon.</p><p><a href="https://defcon.social/tags/Generator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Generator</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/EmergencyPrep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EmergencyPrep</span></a></p>
Mx. Luna Corbden<p>I've also started looking into a small ($200) solar generator for portability, just for devices/hot plate/small misc. I'm not happy with Harbor Freight's selection, so probably will go Amazon or see what New Egg has. Any suggestions on features for that that? I'm noticing they don't always come with panels, so it seems complicated.</p><p><a href="https://defcon.social/tags/Generator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Generator</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/EmergencyPrep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EmergencyPrep</span></a></p>
Mx. Luna Corbden<p>Alright, as per last month's discussion about generators, I'm thinking about getting this one. I can pick it up local. </p><p>Is there anything wrong with it?</p><p><a href="https://www.harborfreight.com/5000-watt-dual-fuel-super-quiet-inverter-generator-with-remote-start-and-co-secure-technology-epa-71367.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">harborfreight.com/5000-watt-du</span><span class="invisible">al-fuel-super-quiet-inverter-generator-with-remote-start-and-co-secure-technology-epa-71367.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://defcon.social/tags/Generator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Generator</span></a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/EmergencyPrep" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EmergencyPrep</span></a></p>

MobiusTempus<p>This is an offer for any publisher but aimed more at the smaller/indie group. As many of you know I make generators and have now resumed making my stuff into online and HTML generators.
