I'm Shamino and this is my blog. I write about whatever I like. Sometimes you'll agree, sometimes you'll think I'm insane, but that's part of the fun. Feel free to comment on what I write, but keep it civil. Spam will be deleted.
Some people have asked why I chose the name "Shamino." Shamino is a character from the Ultima series of computer games. In the game, Shamino is a ranger aligned with the attribute of spirituality.
Back in high school, I spent a lot of time playing Ultima IV. In college, I chose to call myself "Shamino" on BBS's, and have been using the name ever since.
It should be noted that I am not the only person on the internet that uses this name. If you see postings elsewhere by someone named "Shamino", it isn't necessarily me.
Ganked from yourish.com. Also read the article it links to.
An Israeli tech company has developed a passive device that allows plants to collect dew and excess rainwater, while also cutting off sunlight to weeds. Farms using these (at a cost of about $1 per plant) can use 50% less water - a real boon when growing crops in the desert.
