Namib Desert live stream<\/strong>
This\u00a0live feed of a watering hole in the Nabib Desert<\/a>\u00a0streams live 24\/7. I drop in a couple times a week and I\u2019ve seen so many different animals sharing the waterhole. I\u2019ve seen zebras, wildebeests, warthogs, ostriches and lot of different birds. The camera has a microphone and night vision, so you\u2019re always connected to this magical and awesome wildlife. \u2014 CD

Ultimate log cabin craft<\/strong>
I\u2019ve watched a lot of videos about people making their log cabin in the woods, but this one\u00a0(I Spent 3 Years Alone Building a Log Cabin)<\/a>\u00a0by a Swedish kid is on a whole nother level. First the guy, Erik Grankvist, is 18 years old. Second the level of craftsmanship is unbelievable. He contours each log and splits humungous boulders by hand! Third he worked on it entirely alone, moving massive logs himself. Fourth he filmed himself, which is a huge chore. There is no narration for 1.5 hours, just mesmerizing old world craft at work.\u00a0 I watched the whole thing. Two weeks after posting it got 9 million views. \u2014 KK

How to break a habit<\/strong>
\u201cAny habit needs all its parts in order to function. If some parts are missing, the habit is disassembled.\u201d \u2014 Carlos Castaneda<\/em>
This short insight on the structure of a habit has helped me see my patterns differently. If there is something I want to stop doing, I just remove a \u201cpart\u201d or step from the process. Lately, it\u2019s been deleting apps and keeping my phone as far away from me as possible so that using it becomes an inconvenience. \u2014 CD

Better than Consumer Reports<\/strong>
There\u2019s a guy on YouTube who does the most thorough and insanely complete testing of tools I\u2019ve ever seen. He test to the breaking point up to a dozen variants of one tool (say cordless chainsaws), including the cheapest and the most expensive, to see which one is actually best. His channel, Project Farm, is sort of a one-man Consumer Reports, only better. This year he rounded up his best results into one video he calls\u00a0The Top 10 Products of 2022<\/a>. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n\n\n\n
