Farming isn’t a simple life, just letting you know from the start.
Poor wording I guess.
I know farming is hard work, but I’d be happy with my own plot doing my own thing.
Life right now is not simple and I got my dream job and I still don’t think I’ll be happy. Owning my own plot of land would be wonderful and unload a lot of anxiety.
Are you the developer of Neofetch?
Never heard of it to be honest
The developer of Neofetch archived the project and has taken up farming
Sicily gives you derelict houses
We've thought about it, but it can be hot as hell during the summer and water shortages aren't uncommon. Given how climate change is affecting everything, it seems like a bad long term investment.
Yea Italy hasn’t been doing real well for… well centuries now, and with climate change it doesn’t have a pleasant outlook for the future.
Better than buying land in holland though
I guess you're saying this because of the whole underwater situation? I get it, but also I think if anyone's equipped to deal with rising water it's the Dutch, they got that shit under control.
Oooh! Free vendetta ghosts!
I hear Israel is handing out free land these days - or, more accurately, will allow you to steal it from the people living there while fascist goons squads backs you up with overwhelming firepower.
You know... the way settler-colonialism has pretty much always worked.
This is how you Canada
I remember when I first actually read all that small legal text for a contest where you'd win a lifetime supply of some food product.
In your mind, especially as a kid, you just imagine you have as much of it as you could ever want. Bzzt! Nope. It's like 1 free thing a month for the next 20 years. Not even technically a lifetime. 😮💨
I mean, it's a lifetime if you've got leukaemia
I won a lifetime supply of breathing air.
So far, I'm not disappointed.
Yeah but shrinkflation means these days it comes with 20% less nutritional* particles.
*combustible
Some cities are still working on increasing them though. Just don't go to the premium mountain venues though, or you get 20% less air per air!
And then everyone clapped...
I don't even know if seed would have been available back then year round, and for something like that "lifetime supply" would be what you used and handed out during planting season.
But seed isn't cheap, I don't think someone would have made up that story if they knew how unbelievable it was. There's no way he could just grab a 20 pound bag of seed every month. That's close to $100 today for just grass, not even crops.
And even if it was pre-tractor and done with a horse/donkey...
Most farmers would be getting them so close to perfectly straight this would have been impossible to judge.
Also straight row might have been the final challenge and done without a horse, so hand done much harder.
...
How do you plow without a horse?
Like, there's the old joke about hooking your wife up to the plow, but someone/something needs to pull the plow.
If not than you just use a hoe
I think it's also possible to push the old style plows. It just really, really sucks
Not really.
They need to be pulled and pushed down to stay at the right depth.
If you're just pushing it's going to nosedive.
But like, there's no really a reason to ever try, you'd just use a hoe. That's literally the entire reason we have hoes. It's just a pulled plow is way faster.
Can't turn a hoe into a housewife...
Yeah, but if you ask her nice she might help you plow
Ah yes.
Nothing ever happens.
