Yeah we felt very blinged out! Hammocks, the big tent, and a camp stove. And the canoe had a ton of empty space left

I have a Kobo Libre 2 and love it. I used to read physical books at night with a neck light to not bother my wife, but a back-lit e-reader is so much better and easier. I definitely read more just from convenience. Better to travel with too. I'm also dyslexic and the dyslexic font helps me read longer with less mental fatigue

Game: Halo 3 Book: The Kingkiller Chronicles Movie: Harry Potter series (yes, I hate Rowling, but I can't move on yet) Show: Doctor Who. Been rewatching nuwho with my wife and it's like I've become insatiable for more. Been reading the books, comics, and audio plays. Gonna try Torchwood after

Cycling

I started biking to work after we moved closer and next thing I know I'm into mountain biking and have built 2 bikes

Years ago I finally nuked my Windows dual boot after one of their updates broke it. I still remember my laptop booting into Windows and being so confused. Haven't missed it once.

IMO the Windows Store is why valve has invested heavily into gaming on Linux. Windows Store could easily become a huge Steam Store competitor if Microsoft were an effective company. So Valve wants to enable devices that don't run Windows. Numerous other benefits for something like the Steam Deck as well, but I'd bet we see another Steam Machine someday - probably after they convince more companies to support Linux

I added a front basket to my commuter and I thought I could carry anything

Oh also, I snack a lot less and have lost weight. The initial reason I cut out media was in the evenings all I would do is snack and watch stuff until bed. And I NEVER actually felt ready for bed. Maybe I'd be tired, but there was some existential dread or something that I was wasting my life and not pursuing my interests.

Cutting out my bad media habits worked for me (social media on my phone every minute of free time, and hours of Youtube in the evenings). Days feel longer, I've been reading a lot, finding time to exercise and finish projects (even during the work week). Also, my sleep has improved.

Both my brother in laws have huge modified trucks, both live in cities, both complain that the road infrastructure and parking doesn't cater to their large vehicles... Also both have (probably) never used the truck bed.

They are so huge, tons of room in the cab. Feels like driving in a living room. Have to ride over curbs to get out of parking lots though
