Wow, thanks for the link! I’m a huge Flatpak fan and always thought they were awesome. I still do, but a lot of the issues in that blog were news to me. Thanks for sharing, it was a really good read!

This is cool! I’ve been using Bruno for a while now as an alternative. Maybe I’ll give this a go.

Not dumb question, yes there were some of the mountain ranges we have today were a part of it.

While I understand your perspective, I believe we hold differing interpretations of the series. I am not seeking an argument, as I consider this to be a fantastic piece of literature, and I believe Weeks effectively portrays religious piety. Additionally, it features remarkably strong female characters. It is quite interesting how we can read the same words on a page and arrive at such different interpretations. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Can you tell me more? I’m not religious and don’t know much about Mormonism. I’ve heard similar things about other authors like Sanderson. I gotta say, the comments are a bit underwhelming since no one explains the actual problem.

Here are some series I can’t recommend enough:

Cradle by Will Wight — A young man born too weak to matter in a world where martial artists can shatter mountains and walk on air decides that’s not good enough. Starts small and intimate, then escalates into genuinely insane power fantasy. The progression system is crack cocaine. 12 books, all out, binge-worthy.

The Black Magician Trilogy by Trudi Canavan — A slum girl accidentally discovers she has magic, which is very illegal if you’re not from the right family. Gets accepted into the Magicians’ Guild under suspicious circumstances and slowly uncovers something rotten at its core. Cozy, character-driven, and surprisingly political.

The Lightbringer Series by Brent Weeks — Magic is literally made of light and color, and drafters slowly go mad from using it. Packed with political scheming, morally grey characters, and one of the best slow-burn mystery plots in fantasy. Weeks hid twists in plain sight for five books and sticks the landing.

The Licanius Trilogy by James Islington — Time travel, prophecy, and a magic system where using power costs you years off your life. Dense and intricate in the best way, the kind of series where you flip back to chapter one after finishing it and realize how much you missed. Islington clearly planned every page from the start.

All are fantastic series, happy reading! 📚

He must be a fellow JoJo enjoyer.

Twin Paradox TL;DR: Identical twins—one stays on Earth, the other rockets off near light speed and returns. Relativity says time slows for the traveler, so they age less (e.g., returns 20 while sib is 50). “Paradox” cuz from traveler’s view, Earth seems to move, but acceleration/turnaround breaks the symmetry, so no real contradiction. Mind-bendy Einstein stuff. 🚀

Jojo reference, for those that were in doubt!

Sorry for party pooping the Tesla hate train, but the milage estimate when navigation is of is directly correlated to battery state of charge. Its basicly just SoC x factor. Its not dynamic, as in a Kia or BMW. The factor is calculated from officoal EPA range test. Should it be dynamic? Maybe, but you get a true estimate when you navigate to a destination anyway. This is probably done so they could market the car with certain range, same as many other manufacturers.

Hey, you do you man. If you solely base your opinion of people based on what car they drive I am not going to convince you otherwise. I mostly presume this is meant as a trigger post to drive engagement, in which you succeeded.

With that said, I have a model 3 and I’m pretty happy with the car and how Tesla have been treating me. The supercharger network is fantastic for long travel. I don’t agree with Musk on most things and maybe my next car won’t be a Tesla. It’s always a pros/cons weighing on what features you value most atm.

This is a very cool idea. I agree with others here, needs a flywheel and would be interesting to see how it performs when you put load on it (ie dynamo). Would be interesting to see some kind of mechanism to rotate the back blocking plate with the wind direction to optimize for boat use
