Kobo

I have a Kobo Libre and with KoboCloud[1] it syncs automatically with Nextcloud and other cloud providers. It’s awesome.

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.

I have had mine since early February and I still prefer it over gaming on my main rig. I bought it with me on my 3 week bike trip through all of Sweden even though it weighs more than my tent. I short, it’s one of my favorite buys of the decade.

I’d say gear is more expensive, often much more expensive. But UL often means less gear, so I guess that should be considered too. What I means is that you don’t need to buy a whole Triangia kitchen - just a burner, you don’t need a whole wardrobe of clothes - just the bare essential, etc.

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.

Hacker news is based on an old version of Reddit. It's a great community for tech & programming news.

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.

Sure, go ahead :)

Ah no this is the outcome, ie. what I actually rode. The planned route was adapted along the way, yes

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.

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.

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.

Done! :)

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.

Same. The procedure to install it was super smooth.

I wrote about it here https://lemmy.world/post/2241358 :)

I have a Kobo ereader at my bedside table and read almost every night in order to fall asleep, so when I dread picking that up I know I either have to double down and finish the book or drop it. So far it has only happened once in recent years. That time it was Salvation by Peter F Hamilton, a hefty chunk of a book. If it’s a novella I generally try to read more often just to finish it.

Nice! What kind of trip is the picture from?
