Pokari Sweat.

I survived on that stuff when I did a one week Kebdo training camp in Japan. It’s fantastic!

If you like grounded sci-fi that elicits a “it could happen in a few years” vibe firmly rooted on Earth, check out William Gibson. Most of his stuff is excellent, but “The Peripheral” and its followup “Agency” are recent highlights. From his older stuff I very much enjoyed “Virtual Light” the most. More than his acclaimed “Neuromancer” (he invented the word cyberspace in 1982 and popularized it in this 1984 novel) even.

Neal Stephenson - “Seveneves” One of my all time favorite sci-fi books. It is set mostly in space, but very realistic and never leaves the Earth’s influence. Time setting is basically now or a few years from now.

Also by Stevenson: “Anathem” Marvellous alternate universe story with a few twists. It’s on Earth, just … different.

If you wanna go for the classics (1960 roughly), look into Stanislaw Lem. “Solaris”, “Eden” and “Transfer” all left a lasting impression on me.

Yeah. And adaptive cruise control is something you have to pay 900 Euro extra via the in car shop on some models. Models you already paid 50k Euro and more for.

Andy Weir’s second best book after “The Martian” in my opinion. But not by far, it was a great read and I enjoyed every page of it. Rocky for intergalactic president!

What the heck are you on about? When we went into full work from home at my former company, productivity went UP.

There’s studies showing that companies forcing their workers back into the office suffer huge brain drains and cannot hire as fast as more flexible employers.

The people have spoken.

I used my Pixel 5 as a mobile recording rig. Plugged in my audio interface via USB-C (which powered it as well), two wireless XLR receivers and used the app n-track to record an interview with an astronaut at an ESA event (lav mic on myself and the astronaut).

In that moment, I felt like a pro.

Unfortunately, the interview didn’t get a lot of views on my YouTube channel haha

This is a W. It started with different registers here in Austria as well (“registered partnership” vs “marriage”) until our supreme court ordered it was unconstitutional to make that distinction.

Now all marriages are equal before the law. As they should be.

Current day Russia is an authoritarian oligarchy. Nothing communist about it.

This was the solution that worked for me as well. Thanks!

Thanks for adding more context to this!

Yep, gut-liver-brain axis is a thing and people definitely don’t know enough about it. Including myself.

I admit it: I’m a lurker 99% of the time. I do partake in the up- and downvoting though.

It does fly well… with infinite fuel, because the range is rather limited. It does glide excellent, though.

It glides surprisingly well, considering the weird shape. Not big on range, though. Powered by movie magic ;) See for yourself: https://youtu.be/IG75B-Sdidk

I used Reddit exclusively through RIF. It was perfect for what I wanted out of the site.

A sad day. But now I’m here via Jerboa and like it a lot so far.
