I’m deep down in the Snow Runner-trench. It’s like Euro Truck Simulator, but mud and snow and in a week I’ve already spent like 14 hours or so. It take sooo much time to get things done though.
For this specific case (Pandoras Star) I urge you to push through. It took me half a year to finish it because it’s so much stuff that’s just boring in the first half of the book, but the later part of it definitely makes up for it. I’m reading Judas Unchained now even though I promised myself not to pick up a beast (800+ pages) for a good while.
I really enjoyed Dark Matter and Recusion by Blake Crouch. They are both easy reads and near-future sci-fi. I love the humor in The Martian and that may be lacking in these, but they are real page turners non the less. Especially Recursion might be one of my recent favorites.
Didn’t expect Endurance to show up as a recommendation here, but you are absolutely right. Haven’t reflected on the similarities between the two but I loved every bit of both!
I'll add it as soon as my data export from Garmin is done processing. I had three alternatives for the route when I left Malmo, but ended up making the next day's route day-to-day basically. It was easier that way, given changes in weather, amount of food etc.
You’re very welcome! As for traveling by bike I just finished a ride from the top of Sweden to the bottom and except for a used up tire, I didn’t have a single mechanical problem. So as long as you make sure to start your trip with a well serviced bike you rarely risk anything, I’d say.
Of course that depends on where you are going though - I wouldn’t go out on a three month trip in the deepest of Alaska without a good set of redundant gear, but traveling in Europe is no problem at all.

Unexpectedly, it’s Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. I’ve always loved the movie and the book adds to it. A real joy to read.
It’s already being discussed to be put in law but people still aren’t rioting. Chat control 2.0 is just this.
I’m super happy with my Corsair FWIW
The webfinger includes the subdomain. So the webfinger would be either @user@mastodon.domain.com or @user@pixelfed.domain.com, given your example.

Have you read it? I agree with OP that the first half is utterly hard to get through, but the second half definitely makes up for it.
I use Authy. I tried to migrate to using a Yubikey, but the Yubikey 5 NFC which I have has a limit of 32 TOTPs and I need to store more than that.

Ah no this is the outcome, ie. what I actually rode. The planned route was adapted along the way, yes
Sure, go ahead :)
I have a Kobo Libre and with KoboCloud[1] it syncs automatically with Nextcloud and other cloud providers. It’s awesome.
