This year I discovered the Elderling Saga, by Robin Hobb. Starts with the Farseer Trilogy, Assassin’s Apprentice. Great epic fantasy.

As for sci-fi Isaac Asimov’s Foundation is great.

Neuromancer is also a great read, and one of the earliest examples of cyberpunk.

Since you asked for a single book, and you might not be keen on jumping into multi-book sagas, I’d say go for Neuromancer

I do tend to overcomplicate things 😆

It seems, based on your comments and others in the post, that my next step is to flash OpenWRT and do a deep dive on its firewall functions. Thanks for taking the time to educate me!

Thanks for all the info!

At the time, I wasn’t sure why i bought OpenWRT compatible router, only that the community seemed to love it. Now I’m glad I got it!

Time to get OpenWRT working!

My Electromagnetics is a bit rusty, apply a healthy measure of skepticism:

I’d say the two fuses are there to protect the transformer itself.

In the example you use, the upstream of the transformer would be protected by the 280V fuses but the transformer itself will have to suffer the overcurrent, and could be damaged by it. If the transformer is dipped in cooling oil, the overcurrent could even lead to an explosion.

As for the TUV inspection, the two fuses would be desirable for any TUV cert, and they would be required if there is any chance of explosion.

Yes, those were exactly my thoughts! The animations allow you to create all manner of creatures & environments that would be pretty hard to do otherwise

We just watched Scavenger’s Reign, If exploration is your thing. Not much diplomacy there tho

I’ve got the gulikit pro and its the best controller I’ve ever had! I specially like how I can quickly swap A-B buttons on the fly. 3 others of my group also have it

When scuba diving recreationaly, Nitrox tanks actually have higher concentrations of oxygen, leaving less “space” for nitrogen and other gases.

Normal air tanks are filled at 21% oxygen. A nitrox tank will have more than 21%. The ones I use have 32% oxygen, wich helps when being at depths between ~20m and ~40m

I know that technical divers do use other gas concentrations, and they even change the nitrogen in the tanks for other inert gasses. But I’ve no idea of which gasses they use.

I occasionally enjoy them when I’m between games, and I know I will not have the time or energy to start a new, more involved game.

I see these kind of games as a different medium to tell a story and, if done well, the controls can be a part of the storytelling. The Last of Us is a great example of using controls for this.

As to why not whatch a movie? I cannot sit in front of a screen passively anymore. If I’m with my partner, we can sit together and watch something, otherwise, I want to interact with the screen, even if it’s only by walking.

Sounds like our detention camps down under

I’ve been a subscriber for 4 years now, I find it interesting and relevant, and they don’t seem to have favorites amongst the political parties. They are mostly politics focused tho.
