>>29176 Have any of you considered the taxes you have to pay? You are self employed (you get a 1099) and will wind up paying roughly 30-40% in taxes depending if your state does it's own income tax. Don't think you can avoid it like tips for waitressing or women in stripping by under-reporting. You will have a paper trail left to you by the cam site regardless of what you do with them. Then you have to worry about gaps in employment history and the possibility of future employers doing a background check and this shows in your tax record along with your face on porn sites when an image search is done. Good luck getting hired. You can't do it forever either, you will get old, you'll eventually look like shit. Very few people get a hard on looking at a pile of shit. There are hardly any women out there making 75k a month. Just isn't happening. Porn Stars hardly make 75k a month, what makes you think cam girls make that?

Okay, so let's say hypothetically someone was going to start a gang/cult. A small group of specific people who would engage in covert moneymaking tasks, sort of like fundraisers. People willing to do things that may or may not amount to domestic terrorism.

How would you go about propositioning and recruiting people? It would certainly take very specific individuals, people who you could really trust to keep secrets as well. Should I lead this family on my own, or would it be easier to manage our people if I had a partner?

Any advice you could give about approaching prospective members with this would be very appreciated. Oh yeah, also would it be good to have sex with any female underlings in the clan, or would this be a bad idea?

I'm sure if you go through rural areas there'll be kind farmers who will take you in for a while while you chat with them about life in Wisconsin (or at least that's how I got by backpacking through Europe).
I'm sure that your experience with Green Bay will give you the common knowledge to just drink river water.
I'd bring normal camping supplies + a cleared cell phone in case you need/want to contact anyone you've met along your journey.
You could watch Craigslist Joe to see if you might want to use the internet to get around with ease.
A couple of words of advice would be
1) If you have a girlfriend bring her - not only will people be more likely to help you out, but you can bone every night (careful for bears, though)
2( You may not want to go in the winter seeing as it will be cold as balls, you won't be able to find much food if you decide to hunt, and studies show that people grow more depressed in the winter - therefore you'll get less help.
I wish you the best of luck on your journey.
Go Pack

In older cars the lock wasn't protected from above, So if you could squeeze a small hook past the rubber window protector you could then use that stick to pull the entire locking part of mechanism out of locking area.

it's only really cars from before the 90's that this will work on. Not to mention you still have to get the engine running. Also newer cars will sound the alarm if you even try.

Appalachian Trail...it calls to me. Not just to hike a small part of it, but the entire thing. From Georgia to Maine it takes six months if all goes well. A tough journey, long and tedious but full of splendor and a life experience like none other. Not to mention a personal achievement, overcoming the elements and the lack of the niceties that we have become accustomed to.

So, let's post a thread of things I should take along. I want less than 50lbs (metrics are for faggots. Use Imperial, socialist scum.) and I want to ensure that I have most of my bases covered. One base that perturbs me is shitting in the woods. How will I wipe? Should I get a plastic scoop....thing? Anyhow, some good advice is welcome.

Pic unrelated. A prop I made for a convention not long ago.

Not to rain on your parade, but if you don't even know how to shit in the woods, you haven't got the slightest chance of successfully thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail. Start somewhere small like a camping trip, it may be more your speed. People that hike the entire trail usually have dead-dropped supplies or a re-supply crew that is close to the trail.

Doris is offering quality advice, take notes.
he covers a wide range of options and really there is no proper set up. you just have to find what suits your needs. for instance, I started the trail with a tent but switched to a hammock half way through cause it was lighter (but colder) . It's all a test to figure out what you jive with.
if you're interested, I can break down my gear and diet for you, from when I thru hiked. just because you've never backpacked, doesn't mean you can't walk from Georgia to Maine (or Me to Ga, even though that would be super anticlimactic at the end in Georgia)

I got a good friend from the trail who has a really successful blog and wrote a book on the trail (a physiological guide to the A.T.) with a lot of really useful info in it (I'm mentioned in it what what) - when I was at trail days last year (which you should go to while on trail) I heard a couple of copies where making the rounds among hikers and it was helping people out. his website is The Good Badger - you should check it out

Everytjing is pretty much covered, just a piece of advice. In maine the longest stetch of wilderness is 100 miles with no civalozation, you will need minimum of 5 days of food and supplies for that section. Also start in main and go to georgia. Its moreish downhill going that way and if you dont make it to the end at mt. Kataden in maine before a certain date it gets closed. Would kinda suck doing all of it not to be able to finish the last mile.

Along the trail there are numerous privies (outhouses). Use those. If you have to dig a small hole 6in down, 6 in wide and bury that shit.
To wipe, use rounded rocks. Clean all the dirt off them and spit on um before u wipe. Sounds weird, but it works. Also birch bark and grass, leaves, sticks or dead animals can work in a pinch. Just don't use anything alive or the hippies will have a fit.
The best meal to eat is ramen with powdered potatoes. Tons of calories, light and easy to make.
There are a lot of lean-tos along the AT, these are on most maps of the AT. You can find maps that not only point out lean-tos, camping sites and privies, but also tell you the elevation between locations on the AT.
Bring Aquamira to sanitize water that you will find flowing along the trail. Filter systems are too bulky and aquamira is cheap and effective. Don't drink untreated water.
Get a nice watch. Pay 50 dollars for a decent one, with alarms n shit.
You will walk over Bromley ski mountain's peak, there will be a ski patrol hut at the top. It is open. Spend the night there. It is gorgeous and a nice break from the lead-tos.
Have fun, bury ur shit and drink lots of water.

You know that feeling you get when you play and you get all giddy and sweaty and enjoy it? That's what should motivate you. If you don't want to play today then don't, because forcing it will make you resent playing (of course, if you are stuck in a rut for weeks or months you have to "force" yourself, but if you play at least three times a week then that is fine.)

Learn new songs, it's not that hard, just pick the ones you like (and a couple you know will get you pussy at a party: Today, Country Roads, Tribute and so on.

Start tapping within the basic chords, you can make wonderful sounds just by lifting and pressing down the index finger in an A-minor chord or a E-minor chord and so on. Press down split-second before you strum and you will have a "double" note, which can be used in all kinds of ways.

Make your own songs. They will suck majorly at first, but everyone has to start somewhere

Try to learn songs that you like. Start with easy ones. Work up to harder ones.

Most people practice every day because they enjoy playing, not because they "make" themselves do it.

V=wBANsin(wt) is your voltage with time. w as said should be 60Hz (that's what it is for commercial applications, if you can go faster then go for it) A is the area of the loops, N is the number of loops. As you can see V changes with time but that's expected with AC and what not.

Chances are that you aren’t going to run anything that actually runs on AC so use a rectifier diode to convert your current into DC.

w=2pi f with f being in Hz

NB for correction, I'm high as fuck right now.

tbh, your better making a generator to charge dc battss then making an invertor to run the dc voltage at 60 hz. going to be hard going straight from generator to ac with out regulating hz

I've had this dream for a long time now of going into forested camping areas across the country and setting up little magnet generators in trees that would give off just enough power to light up a camp sight or charge a phone or whatever, and just leaving them there for anyone to come and use.

I think it'd be awesome to go camping and find a tree with a power outlet siting out of it and sign that said "Free energy! :D"

The problem is I have no idea how to build these things, and I don't really have the money to fund this anyway... but it's fun to think about

>>34531 this is all very basic.


to generate current a conductor must pass through a magnetic field. this is normally done by having a turbine turning an armature, which basically just a giant loop of wires. the armature spins at 60 revolutions a second, or hertz (hz). very basic: to actually make a generator, all one would have to do is take a motor and spin the crank shaft(armature). when you see and hear a portable generator you are listening to the combustion motor being used to spin the armature, so if you wanted to make a generator you could use in the woods you could just get a 1.5 hp motor and attach a handle, or a bike or some sort of renewable energy source, like a water wheel. and spin away. now you wont get much voltage this way and it defiantly wont be useful voltage and its going to be ac, but you have a generator!.

now, what usually happens when people produce their own power they produce in dc, its done for a mulitude of reasons but the the main one is batteries run on dc. you wont always have someone to pedal the bike or wind to spin the turbine so batteries are a necessity. all batteries produce dc energy which isnt usefull if you are trying to charge a phone unless you get an inverter. you also will have to build your own generator with a slip ring on one side so you are actually producing dc and not ac current this will also require a circuit board that regulates the voltage to what ever you are trying to produce, likely 12v


idk how much you know about ac vs dc current so ill give a very basic run down. as the the armature spins in an ac generator it creates peaks in current. say are producing 15v ac, if you use an oscilloscope to examine the wave lenghth you will see that it travels to +15ac and -15ac, the speed at which it does thi is the hz. the reason is creates waves is because as the armature gets closer to the magnets more current i produced. the reason why we use ac vs dc is because you can send power over longer distances.

now im bout to get into some stuff you likely dont care about, like i said earlier current is produced when a conductor passes through a magnetic field, conversely a magnetic field is created by current. this field extends in equal dis…

I have about $500 worth of BTC that was lost by instawallet. Filed the claim, its been 90 days and I can't access the address. Am I fucked? Checked email and no response. Godam.

Keep bugging them, some russians over at btce were holding my bitcoins and wouldn't let me withdraw them for ages, they eventually sorted it out after a long time of bugging them about it.
