Not in this day and age.. it's fairly easy as long as you don't use high wattage devices.
a cheap sun solar power panel (they even collapse to store away) are like 100 bucks. I forget the watt to whatever formula. but just think of a lightbulb. if it can run that, it can run a large monitor (instead of a standard 110 volt tv input?) I think the largest are around 30 inches that can sun off of USB powered. which is like 5 volts? so you could run low powered/high output LED lighting. and charge a phone while watching a computer monitor hooked up to a low voltage receiver. MP3 Music from your phone or device.
Not sure if you can run a 110-120v tower computer without having a large battery that gets charged all day long.. maybe a 30 minutes? but you can just use a small laptop with a monitor port for your larger screen.
this shit wasn't really doable much 10 years ago. 20 years ago it just would of been expensive. back then, people would pull apart a washing machine and take the motor out of it, and build fans to spin on a running stream which could light a 25watt lightbulb or a small protable TV. you don't need to do this anymore. plus you don't have to live next to a stream. or rig up gravity to pull water out of a well and spin it this way?
that's the next problem. it takes a shitload of energy to pull water out of a well that isn't close to surface water? a lot of drawing power.
but you can do the basic and just drink bottles water you get from a stream nearby without living next to it.
technology is great when it's for good use. -
2018-11-13 at 10:56 PM UTCFor drinking water you can get a dehumidifier running off solar. If you live in a tropical climate you should be able to pull like 4-6L a day from a decent sized device.

You would need a few per person. a gallon for showering each day (recomennded for a decent shower though 8 gallons would be proper)
and close to a gallon (which has recently been reduced to half of that) for drinking. the more hunid it is, the more you sweat and dehydrate over that of being in a hot dry climate (unless you move around lots.. then its about the same)
I live in California.. it's pretty dry out here. the Sacramento Delta and far East SF Bay is humid as fuck. but the rest of the state is dry .
I think this is why the homeless ran to Stockton (south of Sactown) to live next to the deltas. but their campsites had a surge of HepC spreading everywhere from the humidity and polluting the drinking water. the homeless shouldn't live off Mother Earth. Preppers should.
homeless just live minimalism. though Preppers restrict their lifestyle they're not really minimalist. they're actually full time working .. it can be fun and rewarding if you don't flip out. and always have a back-stock. -
2018-11-13 at 11:06 PM UTCOh, and many homeless are in need. I was this and kind of still am. But I would rather have a minimalist apartment for myself than live in a camp. I wouldn't live with others. unless I got to know them well.. it wouldn't be a camp for many.
hoarders is a big problem. Shed yourself of all of that shit. and maybe run in small groups over large encampments. -
2018-11-13 at 11:07 PM UTCWhen I lived in the small town I sold farm supplies and people were always buying potable water tanks so they didn't have to buy a water license. Lots of small streams and rivers nearby so people would just live off that.

Also you keep saying 'you'
were you with your family? -
2018-11-13 at 11:17 PM UTCI really thought of trying "off the land" but I want to own that land. be a homestead of just a small 1-2 acres would be pretty cool.
the property tax could fuck you at the end of the year. if they access 1/4 acres = 1% of yearly income. that's like 400 bucks x 12 for 2 acres for the average person who makes 40k (which is poverty level in california)
so it's like renting from the Government after I put a large down payment on property space. that's 4800 a year. but 400-500 a month? it's not bad but it's still a tax=renting. -

2018-11-14 at 3:24 AM UTCDepends how far you go.
The mountain highways shut down in the winter sometimes, I was trapped in a blizzard once and it was so bad the plow trucks couldn't keep up with the snowfall. -

So do you see a pattern here. like the 5-eye thing. they rigged it so they can loop and spy .. the elite in both countries found a loophole. crossing middle territories with middle territories.
there is an old school &totse conspiracy somewhere about this.. im sure.
