Dirty thought

I had a dirty thought earlier today, I thought about an alternative way to deal with sewage. It is a thought I often have. In an alternative Alan-world, sewage would flow into evaporation chambers that have a partial vacuum that is low enough to lower the boiling point of water to 10°c. The lower the air pressure is, the lower the boiling point is. The water would just boil away until all the water vapour is pumped out and the sewage is dry. I drew a simplified diagram of what happens. 

The dry sewage would then pour out into an incinerator. The incinerator would burn up all the dry sewage. The heat from the burning dry sewage would power the pump that lowers the air pressure of the evaporation chamber and all the other parts of the area. The ashes of the burnt sewage would then be sent to a sorting area to separate the different grains. Some of the grains would be hard and dense like limestone deposits, others would be soft and soluble like carbon powder. There would even be minerals that are turned to a glass like substance because of the heat from the incinerator. 

The hard and dense grains would be gathered and placed into drones that fly over the coast, they would drop the hard dense ashes in coastal areas that are having problems with sea erosion. The deposits would build up until small islands appear and they would have gardens growing on them. When storms emerge, the little islands take most of the punishment. 

The softer grains would be used to make bricks and roads, they would be mixed with cement to make concrete slabs that can be exported. 

Someone said my ideas are crap once, I think they're onto something. 

Sewage Day Dream

For an ordinary man like myself a day dream about something I can't do is constructive. It can help me sleep when I'm worried about something. 

I imagined taking control of a sewage treatment centre and having a building assembled that causes a vacuum that make the sewage boil at ambient temperatures. The dry sewage would then be sent to an incinerator to be burnt. The ashes of the burnt dry sewage would be a mixture of things gypsum, lime stone fragments, carbon powder and things like that. 

The heavy insoluble fragments would be separated from the ashes and droped by the coast from drones. It would help small islands to form that could have wild gardens on them. The islands would help protect the coast during a storm. The rest of the burnt sewage would be mixed with sand and plastic to make bricks and concrete slabs. 

This is a common thought I often have in my mind and it causes a peace inside of me. 

Artemis and Armchair

I was reading through some of the NASA blogs and noticed that they had more or less finished building the most powerful vehicle ever made by mankind, the Orion Space Rocket. This spring will be the beginning of the Artemis Space missions. I was given the impression by the NASA blogs that the first mission will be a flyby, the astronauts will go around the far side of the moon and back to earth without landing; they are brave souls. They know how dangerous it is but they are going ahead with it. The radiation in deep space is unpredictable and very dangerous. They sit on a rocket that could malfunction and explode. I think the moon flyby will be on the first week of March. 

I need a new armchair and I think about it every time I see the word Artemis. My recliner is worn out, I've had it for 7 years and I do most of the reading and work on it. They sell reclining armchairs with all the trimmings, heating messages and electric extending foot rest on those budget sites. The trouble is you don't get to try it until you get it in the post. You just have to trust the customer ratings. If 300 people say the product is very comfortable then it probably is. 

Country Thoughts

One thing that annoys me is when people criticise my country too much, especially when they say things that aren't true. They will claim we invented slavery and the nations we occupied were perfect and all happy sitting by a fire singing together and things like that. They claim that Britain = Villain. 

I have a response to those people, I ask if I would be called racist if I criticised another country. Then I ask if there is anything good that Britain did for the world. Usually those people would say no, we gave nothing useful to the world. 

My response would be, Isaac Newton was English, before his time people thought gravity was a universal force throughout the whole universe, that you would fall even if you were half way between Mars and Earth. Isaac worked out that gravity as an effect of mass and the planets are falling constantly in a loop because of gravity. He gave the world many other things, like calculus and things like that. 

We raised the life expectancy of my nations because we pioneered vaccines and antibiotics. Small pox is irradiated from earth because of Britain. When penecilin was invented, it worked on syphilis. 

We invented trains and cylinder engines and countless other useful things. Anyway, my point is God allowed my nation to bring many gifts to this world and I hope we can bring many more. I hope that God would allow me to turn Britain into a paradise, flower baring cladding, swampy islands in the sea made of the ashes of burnt sewage with beautiful trees on top. Street lights full of beautiful fiber optic petrustions. Loads of cheap food. 

That is what I look for, I search of excellence, with everything I do. Starting with my 3 active blogs. 

What January 2026 Means To Me

January was the best winter we ever had. Almost no frost at all and mild days. I went on lots of outings. It would be nice to go to some museums on my own one day just so I can take my time and read all the exhibit signs. I'm a very boring person and I like to inspect lots of information very closely. In a way, I have museums in my pocket; my smart phone has access to Wikipedia and the britianica encyclopedia. Plus I have bookmarks to numerous scientific blogs. 

While I was visiting different places, there was an ongoing genocide taking place in Iran, Nigeria and Sudan. All those people that were accusing Israel of Genocide were silent. The silence of their selective outrage was very revealing, it shows that there are many people embracing dogma and an irrational hatred of the Jews. When real human disasters occur, they don't care or they deny it is happening.

I care, I'm not controlled by dogma. I want all people on Earth to live in peace. I can't do much really. I hate it when parents are burying their children. I hate seeing lots of bodies laying on the ground, all people that had hobbies and dreams and quirks to their personality. People that didn't know it was their last day. It makes me feel angry when people shoot someone dead and they think they're doing the right thing.

I will say no more about January 2026. Nothing. 

The Fig Tree

I recall a story in the Gospel of Mathew, there was a fig tree by the side of the road but it wasn't the season when figs are produced. Fig trees make small bumps on their bark called taqsh(tash) , I think they're the plant tissue used to make a flower to produce the fig fruits. People would break them off and chew them in their mouth to settle their hunger urges. 

Jesus reached out to grab some taqsh from the tree but there was none, not even on the higher branches that were out of reach. This means the fig tree was barren, people would know this but they didn't get around to chopping it down or they thought they should leave it there for the shade or for some other reason. 

When Jesus saw that it wasn't making taqsh baby figs, he said may you never bear fruit again to the tree. The tree instantly started to die and fall apart. 

He showed everyone that we have free will but our essence doesn't, if Jesus says burst into flames, you'll burst into flames, if Jesus tells a storm to stop it stops, if he tells a fig tree to die, it dies. That's probably why demons are so afraid of him. He even told some people to come back to life after they had died. 

I think that is what they were trying to tell us when they wrote that passage. 

Perspective Shift

Last night I learnt that the 32bit  graphics cartridges on the evercade work ok the super pocket. I was convinced the super pocket would have limited support for Evercade games and only play the 8bit and 16bit side scrolling games. I was wrong because I saw a Scottish guy on youtube playing tomb raider 1, 2 and 3 on the system. 

Here is is video, hopefully the link still works your present time.

To me it is amazing because I thought the super pocket is just a generic pocket emulator for playing side scrolling retro games. I didn't know it can handle the first generation 3d games that were played on the original playstation and Nintendo 64. It's amazing to me because it handles the games without overheating, there is no vent or fan to cool it down; they figured out a way to handle lots of 3d polygons without using too much power and heat. 

What I am trying  to say is they have made a pocket PlayStation with no moving parts, no fan, no vent for the processors, just a heat sync panel. 

I get it though, they have designed processors and graphics controller chips that can do quite a lot of work without using too much power and spurting out too much heat; even my current phone, the Motorola g85 has the snap dragon 600 and adrino 600 graphics chips, and my phone wasn't sold as top graphics pocket system like the new Samsung galaxy phones or I-phone 14. 

It's amazing to me. Not to the previous generations that take it for granted, it is amazing to me and people a like me that have some perspective. 

We all have super computers in our pockets, computers that would trump the best computers in the oldern days.
