Re: Housekeeping

SpaceNut ... you did NOT tell the AI that this building is on Mars!

The gravity is less.

There is no water for mortar.

The 1/2 bar pressure inside the dome holds it up.

Please rerun your conversation and let the AI know these important facts.

Calliban has given you a drawing and numbers.

Give those to the AI.... otherwise we are just wasting it's time

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut...  The Azure account is still running this morning (15th) but according to this letter it will stop running sometime today.

On 15 November 2028, we'll be retiring F, Fs, Fsv2, Lsv2, G, Gs, Av2, Amv2, and B-series Azure VMs. You won't be able to use or purchase these VMs, or any constrained core sizes that are part of the retiring VM series, after that date.

I took a snapshot of the VM yesterday, so could migrate in the future.  However, I am hoping kbd512 will be successful in creating a new image server on the Mars Society servers.  That would be a better long term solution.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut ....

We discussed your roof situation this evening, and everyone expressed sympathy as you try to hold the tarp down with planks.  We sympathize because we've all been in tough situations like that, and hope you come through this period of testing OK.   We looked at the picture you sent us of the house in November and then in February, with snow on the roof.  GW wondered if you have plywood over the joists or planks as I thought.  Plywood is the standard material these days.

You said this to Calliban:

The 2 drawings give me the impression that the buildings are also tied into the actual dome for support and strength with each wall contact of vertical rise.

It inspired me to wonder if Calliban might be willing to show a 2D view of a 3D scene, with the city inside the dome.  I think that the buildings are in the center of the space under the dome and far from the walls, but I agree that a different picture might help to make that clear.
