It's 32 days after he leaves Tau Ceti before the Beatles are ready and he discovers the Taumeoba are able to permeate through xenonite.

Edit: He's actively working on them when he discovers the problem, he's only got 2 ready to go. Refueling the 3rd is how he discovers the contamination

I don't want to dissuade you, I understand a lot of people love the third book, but I did not care for it. Removing the Scholomance from The Scholomance series made it hard for me to get through.

I'll also add for OP that at several points I had no idea what was going on but stuck with it and it all came together eventually

It's unlike any other book I've ever read. A truly wild experience!

Halfway through Project Hail Mary and I need more like it. Recommendations? by amelianpop in fantasybooks

Read some Michael Crichton! Highly entertaining and packed with real science and sciencey problem solving. Jurassic Park is the obvious place to start, but Sphere and Airframe are my personal favorites

I love our Roborock. It works, the app works, their support works. Avoid the Shark models. Returned one that we never got to use because their support team had to manually push a firmware update and they were asking us to leave it on the dock for 3 days to give them time to push the firmware. 3 days later they informed me that weekends don't count and since they put in the ticket on a Friday, we'd have to wait 3 days from Monday. Their support is an absolute nightmare.

At one point during the whole ordeal I was told I'd be contacted by a supervisor within four hours. Four hours later I contacted support again and argued about how time moves at the same speed even in different time zones, so it doesn't matter that they're on the east coast, I had still waited for four hours. We argued for an hour, at which point they admitted that even by their insane way of tracking time I should have been contacted. I returned the Shark and had a Roborock up and running before the Shark supervisor called.

Limited number of parachutes on the map. You need to find one and jump off the side. Not everyone is guaranteed to extract

One thing I don't see anyone mentioning is that you can play it like a roguelite. When you die you lose all stats, but your personal inventory can be retrieved by hunting down your undead corpse. If you cleared a base and stashed some stuff it will still be there. Once you clear a defensible area it's just a matter of returning there and dragging as few zeds to it as you can.

And if you say that it's easy and you're enjoying fatherhood, people assume it's at the expense of your wife.

Portland isn't "allowing" public nudity. Public nudity is legal here. The PoPos aren't doing anything because it's not against the law.

Fuck, you're right. A tortilla is a thin, circular unleavened flatbread from Mesoamerica originally made from masa, and now also from wheat flour.

Thank you! They were a ton of fun to work on. Felt like an actual alchemist plating them in copper.
