I feel you man, it must have been tough.

I’m happy for you that you got away from all that.

Those formus were a bane of my existence, because their “technical explanations” were equally batshit crazy. (And of course none of those people was an actual engineer with knowledge in that field).

I think offgriders belong in the same crazy camp like healing crystals chicks, and antivaxxers.

I actually used to work in a solar & heat pump company.

YES it does attract a huge amount of scummy people on both sides.

Some comments have already answered on the side of sales, but it also attracts a lot of shitty clients.

How? A lot of people get greedy with free energy and/or homesteading/offgird wackos. Usually they’re unable to pay the “normal” price so they chase down such scammy companies because the number they have offered fits their budget.

IMHO definitely an industry to avoid working in.

Grew up in rural Eastern Europe.

I have always been considered “eccentric” or a bit “odd”. I made my peace with it and lived my life knowing that I’m not mentally ok.

After I emigrated to Germany and befriended new people, I realized that I have always been normal, I just didn’t have hillbilly interests like everyone else around me.

A feeling of power, a sense of pleasure by ruining it for someone. The reasons are many, and each more despicable than the other.

I’ve heard that Krita is an amazing drawing software.

What are your experiences with it?

Wow really cool. I really like the art style.

What software did you use?

Yes, dosens of times.

I grew up in eastern europe and things work differently there.

Oftentimes the cops would fish for bribes. Cops would pick you up on the street/stop you in traffic and search you/your car/whatever in hopes of finding something to hook onto and escalate the situation further and put you in a legally difficult situation.

Then they would generously offer that they can make it all go away if somebody from your family comes and brings X amount of money.

This didn’t happen just to me, in most countries of the former eastern block that’s just a fact of life.
