OP posted a rain graph here, it maxes out at 28% in May, which is not exactly a sustained growing season or reliable enough for regular crops.

Just because the ground has been graded doesn’t mean it’s been used for farming.

Is there water access on the property? Potential for drilling a well?

Without a steady source of water, farming is problematic.

Can the penny cross the river by itself?

Oh, yeah for removing the loose bark you probably want to do the steel wire first, then the nylon to remove any dust or small flakes. You could also do steel wool, but depending on how rough the surface is it might shred and leave little bits behind.

For an irregular surface like this you might also consider spray polyurethane for finishing, it will be easier to apply and the surface doesn’t have to be perfectly smooth.

What kind of cleaning are you trying to accomplish?

If you just want to remove dirt and debris, use a nylon bristle brush. If you want to remove loose splinters from the surface, use a brass wire brush. If you want to scrub the surface down to accept stain/finish without completely smoothing out the original texture, use a steel wire brush.

You can get brushes like these at any hardware store

If you do need to sand the surface smooth, consider a sanding sponge:

This will wrap around the curves and ride over the bumps and won’t tear up like sandpaper. You can also wet sand with it.

Really depends on where and how the data collection is integrated.

Browser forks mostly make changes to the application UI which wraps the engine, not to the engine itself. Browser engines are these fantastically complex things, extremely difficult to keep operational and secure, which is why there aren’t many of them and why they’re all developed by large organizations. Forking the engine is basically doomed to failure for a small project because you won’t be able to keep up, you’ll be out of date in a month and drastically insecure in a year.

This is basically all there is.

Fuck’s sake, might as well be a warrant canary.

And they’re peddling the myth of anonymous data. Great.

Are any of those independent browser projects functional yet?

Konqueror, which is Webkit, is still actively developed, though less feature-rich than more popular browsers.

Do you want to help this person be better, or do you want to protect yourself from them?

The first will require that they are receptive in some way to being helped, so it may be impossible.

The second… well, you’ve described a deeply insecure person. The need to constantly remind other people how much better they are demonstrates a real fear of being found to be inadequate. If you can determine the source and/or subject of the insecurity you can potentially weaponize it against them. That’s risky though, it may make you more of a target for retribution.

Remember, you can’t fix someone else, they can only fix themselves. You can offer guidance, but that only works if they’re open to being guided.

Perhaps the best course of action is more zen… let them learn their own lessons. Isolate yourself from damage as much as possible, and just wait for them to crash and burn. Make popcorn.

What we need is a new system
