I stopped using my MacBook Air after 9 years. I did a battery swap at some point, and I think I replaced the charger after the cable frayed. Best windows machine I ever ran.

Wow, I never clicked that the Romantic languages meant 'Roman'! Thanks!

I'm about to sit down for the next six hours. I'm happy to stand for a bit.

I really like when e-readers show footnotes as pop-ups.

Sandwiches are eaten like a typewriter.

I'm so confused. You pivot your elbows and smash the sandwich into your face like the letters hitting the page? You take lots of fast, noisy bites like the sound of typing?

My bike has given me joy, fitness, new activities, and new friends. When I didn't have a car it got me to work, gatherings, shops, etc. The enjoyment of riding got me out exploring nature around where I live. I've done multi-night bikepacking trips. I've met friends on rides. I've made new friends at work when we discover we both ride in sometimes. I chat to people at the bakery about their bikes.

All that, with a side effect of keeping me healthy and fit.
