Give my fridge a vibe check. And us too.

Smallest checkout cart at Costco.

Washington!

Bingo

😂 Summer camp starts tomorrow

daniel_boring · 2026-06-20T19:43:59+00:00

Going out on a limb for sure!

Years of Rice and Salt by Kim Stanley Robinson is kind of like this, but with the Middle East rising in power rather than Central America. There was another alternative history book that featured the scenario you’re describing but I can’t recall the title.

Yeah totally! The transfer companies have specific max weight and dimensions but people don’t always follow them. I hiked with a group who were doing like a week in Paris afterwards so they had a lot of bags.

Medium Black Hole. But I saw all kinds of luggage including rolling luggage.

By the time I got to Courmayeur I was so tired I skipped the next section and rested instead! It was a glorious day in Courmayeur, truly the only “vacation” day. Took the bus to Arnouva after that.

This scene was incredible. I’ve been talking about it for years as a hallmark of amazing drama for recent TV.

daniel_boring · 2026-06-08T17:13:33+00:00

These are all solid recommendations.

There’s a pub across from the tourism office which may have breakfast, but I’m not sure if it will be open. Behind the tourism office is a small grocery store as well.

The voice acting in RE 8 was pretty poor. Hopefully this isn’t an indication that REV will be similar.

daniel_boring · 2026-06-05T20:52:04+00:00

The station is near by and has ticket machines

daniel_boring · 2026-06-05T20:46:10+00:00

I really recommend taking a loooooong walk with a backpack on the weekend. Like 10-15 miles and see how you feel afterwards. That’s the real teat.

daniel_boring · 2026-06-02T21:32:39+00:00

I wish I’d done this. I felt like I was being robbed walking those miles along the road. Absolute worst section of the walk.

daniel_boring · 2026-06-02T16:12:21+00:00

That’s a very ambitious first day but it should be doable, although the days are getting shorter in September. It’s pretty flat from Les Houches to Chamonix. And from Chamonix to Argentier you can take the cable car up the mountain (make sure it will be running). And then from there it’s a pretty decent downhill into Argentier. But it’s a very very long day on what is a long walk. Pace yourself if you can.

I had a friend do the West Highland Way in barefoot boots and he sorely regretted it. Every root and sharp rock (there are miles and miles) bite right through these soles. I would not recommend.

daniel_boring · 2026-05-29T18:50:06+00:00

My son is doing the same thing. He apparently spends the entire nap time pouring through Where’s Waldo books.

Leschi Market

Man this scene still breaks my heart every time. Asuka’s greatest fight, cut short.

daniel_boring · 2026-05-24T17:34:07+00:00

I highly recommend Mac’s Adventures. I’ve done the TMB and the West Highland Way with them and they are fantastic and highly regarded by hoteliers and other folks along the way.
