is Arcteryx a poser brand? what are some tr00 kvlt core dirtbagging brands?

Do mosquito bed nets like the ones given out by organizations like against malaria foundation help people sleep better or make them more comfortable? Or is the only benefit that they help save lives by making people less likely to get malaria?

>The long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) provided by the Against Malaria Foundation are high-tech protective shields made from durable polyethylene or polyester fibers specifically engineered to survive harsh tropical environments for three to four years. These nets are far more than a physical barrier; the fabric is either impregnated or coated with WHO-prequalified insecticides, such as pyrethroids, which kill or repel malaria-carrying *Anopheles* mosquitoes on contact. This insecticide is designed to be wash-resistant, remaining effective for up to twenty manual washes, while the specific mesh size is precisely calibrated to balance cooling airflow with impenetrable protection against even the smallest insects. >Because these nets are family-sized, each one typically protects two individuals often a mother and child and by killing mosquitoes throughout the night, they create a "community effect" that reduces the overall mosquito density in the area, providing an extra layer of safety for the entire village even during the day.

Since I think all y'all would be the most mature and knowledgable board about this:
I need to settle this debate for our families emergency kits when a snowstorm or power outage hits. (I checked for a stupid questions thread but there wasn't any)

I am arguing in favor of getting two butane gas stoves/burners for general use, see picrel
The reason for this is that I want to be able to cook indoors for obvious security reasons. We all live in the same, but pretty cramped subdivision, and everyone can look into eachothers front and back yards.

However, my brother is having a mental breakdown how carbon dioxide will kill us if we'd cook indoors without mechanical ventilation or a range hood after a power outage. Regardless of cracking a window or two.

For indoor use I would prefer to use one of those flat stoves rather than something tall like those stoves that you screw on top of a canister, due to its much higher center of gravity. I know there are some safety concerns with those flat stoves, but to my knowledge that is caused by using pots or pans on the stove that are way too large, reflecting and conducting a lot of heat back down to where the gas canister is, causing it to burst under pressure, and the gas igniting from the lit burner, causing a nice thermobaric effect I suppose.

Let's focus the discussion purely using a propane (butane too I guess) stove indoors in an emergency with regard to breathing safety.

Are there any risks if you just cook in one room upstairs with the window(s) open?
Do the risks outweigh the safety/security offered by cooking indoors to your opinion?

You did go /out/ this year, didn't you?

>inb4 he stayed /in/

Where can I go out in Texas besides Big Bend?

I am from upstate New York so am used to the Adirondacks.

How important do you think a survival knife is?
Do you think it is a rather not needed item thats need can be superseded by a usual every day knife?
It is easier to just snap logs for a fire than to hack them with a survival knife.
This is of course not including raw survival where you are needing bushcraft and hunting skills to actually survive. Just general non normie tier camp holiday woodland camping.

what strange / spooky stuff have you seen?

once when i was in the desert, there was a telephone pole, on it looked exactly like a 10ft tall bird of prey, just eyeing me down
it was about a good 5min of walking, which felt like forever, just to see that it was a transformer that looked weird, none of the other poles had it either
sounds dumb, but it really did look exactly like a gigantic human sized hawk, and the "head" even seemed to follow you too, really interesting illusion, since it also hit all the primal parts of the brain that gone "you're about to be fucking eaten by a bird!!!!!!"
a year or two later, when i was gonna take a picture, it was gone, which adds a strange air to "it was right there, i tell you!"

>inb4 go to /x/ for this shit
i want real stories, not >i smelled the rotten shit fart gas, and my best friend was turned into a skinwalker, and then i pulled out that gun from videogame and blasted it, dude trust me
