This is long overdue reminder to all of you that you should disable and discontinue use of your hot water heaters. Hot water is just another first world luxury like cars, clean water in general, and birth control which are not available to and seperate us as revolutionaries from the third world peoples.

I have lived for literally years at a time without having hot water, and besides strengthening my bond to the ideal of Marxism-Leninism-Maoist thought, I also found that I quickly became used to not having hot water. I had no problem washing dishes in cold water.

As a bonus, if you abide by a revolutionary workout regiment and are trying to become swole in the fashion of a true more revolutionary person, a quick cold shower after working out every day (or twice a day on leg/cardio days) will actually cool you down a lot.

You should get used to it also, because after the revolution hot water will surely be rationed for important non personal use, and probably won't be available to the home of most comrades. Unless you plan on pursuing a career in the Party, you will probably not be able to use hot water at your whimsy as you can today.

bc most refrigertors arent adapted to do that and who is going to modify them??? but in the resource scarce future the luckiest among our successors will live in superefficient prefab 12 foot cubes and the refrigeration and air control and electrical generation will all be wired togther in one corner, all of it of course designed so that groups of cubes can be stacked together in a variety of configurations to more efficiently pool their resources, compelled as they are by the need to keep the heat rays running lest some of the tent dwellers get too close.

this is the 2014 thread. the other one is old, and we have enough resources to keep setting up new threads, at least until the oil runs out

the largest and most persistent of these arrays would, of course, begin to form the first post-collapse cities—pitiful semi-mobile rats' nests of haphazard manufacturing efforts and winding halls of doors to shut-ins' homes all thrown together like legos—as primitive reinterpretations of decayed engineering technologies gradually came to be find new purpose and form in the novel way of life that would define the vast majority human culture and history for the following 12,000 years

fun idea: i wonder if i can make an stirling cycle engine with cycled water as the working fluid to heat water from a heliostat. decentralized, non-electric water heating. hmm if only i had the free time to think about this
