Running water would be nice

In the winter you freeze your ass while in the summer the smell will floor you.

[-] npdean@lemmy.today 1 points 5 days ago

Solution is to settle in the tropics. No winters and you will smell all year round, all other smells will be masked.

Septic tanks exist, yo.

Technically a septic tank is not considered a sewer system. A sewer system is a network of pipes, pumps, and other infrastructure designed to transport wastewater for central processing...a septic tank processes the waste on-site.

You are the best kind of correct, buuut yeah, if I flush and the sweetcorn goes somewhere that I don't have to look at it then that's enough for me :-)

If I put my septic tank on an adjacent property and also hook up my shed/barn to it (in addition to the cabin), can I call it a sewer system then?

Primitive Technology hasn't done that yet?

I think that comes from the roof.

(water incursion is a huge source of anxiety; this place is NOT for me)

[-] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 3 points 5 days ago

That roof looks very modern though. I don't think there's any more of a risk of water incursion from the roof than any other house

Find a stream, dig a well, set up a rain collection system, have a cistern / pump / filter.

Yep, its difficult, but not impossible.

People have been doing that for tens of thousands of years... though I will grant you this is increasingly, unrealistically difficult for an average person to pull off these days, even if you basically learn how to properly do all of it yourself, lots more legal restrictions, and construction/materials are costly.
