What do you folks do for backups these days? I used to use a drobo RAID array for all my stuff, but the company and the device died and all my data is stuck on drives that i can't decrypt. I'm looking for something more resilient and long-lasting. A lot of it is raw footage so it's a couple terabytes of data.

Also, a skep hive, properly covered in clay and other materials can last up to 150 years!

"There's no frantic activity when they're left to their own devices. Bees actually they've demonstrated now actually rest about 40% of their days, and we don't even see or understand that because what we've been doing is studying bees that are pushed to the margins and saying this is how they behave. That's like taking trauma victims and saying, oh, this is a typical well-balanced person; this is how people behave"

Creating Bee-Friendly Urban Habitats with Susan McElroy

The following interview was recorded for the Poor Proles Almanac podcast, with guest Susan Chernak joining us to discuss traditional beekeeping, skep hives, and what it's like to have honeybees as roommates.

@GustavinoBevilacqua @rek it's "beans" referring to baked beans, which are served with some lard traditionally, hence "graisse de bine"

@rek oublie pas avoir les yeux dans la graisse de bine aussi :P

Taking suggestions for vegan and gluten free bakeries / places where you can get cake in Montreal, we're gonna have something big to celebrate soon :)

Small sample of what I'm working on at the moment

Drawing architecture from scratch is really hard, especially with more realistic shadows, so i made myself a little castle builder in blender to sketch them out :)
