Good point, not sure the the strategizing octopi will be a major concern for this crossing tho. I guess you're never really save from those devious creatures..

Could you point me to where I could better learn about these regions then? No offense, I'm just actually curious now.

Yes, Whichposting! I didn't know I needed this! Now we shall all ponder they orb, finally

Finally, someone else with the same irrational dislike of them! I don't even know why this is the one emoji/reaction for me, but I can't stand it. There is nothing really wrong with it, but without ever choosing to, I cringe specifically at these (and *mlem). Of all the things to have an irrational, deep seated hatred for, at least this is harmless enough. Thank you for showing me I'm not alone in this and let this be the first and last time I rant about disliking bleps

Is it possible to bring back the random community function again? That was the main appeal of the old infinity for me.

If you do it for a full day then yes it is. Whatever your opinion of a job is, if you want it done by someone then that person deserves a living wage. (btw, I hope I didn't misunderstand your point, not entirely sure)

I guess any profanities possibly aimed at spez would at least already be pixelated right? So half as bad..

Yes, I think this technology works best to fill a niche in denser cities, just not to provide for the food needs of a whole city. They would also improve the quality of life in the city.

Honestly, this seems like a solution looking for a problem. We already have a lot of agricultural space available and in use. We just use that space very inefficiently to actually produce food. There are huge benefits to be gained from switching to sustainable farming, and probably a largely vegan diet too (just based on Ressource use alone). Once farming is focused on producing food and preserving nature, instead of creating profit we can look to further improvements. Even hydroponics or mixed use gardens are likely a better next step here. There simply isn't a need to cram our food production onto a wall yet, especially if that requires costly infrastructure made of difficult to recycle materials.

I definitely became more critical with time and there are a few books I wouldn't quite enjoy today. Then again, I tend to seek out some 'childish' settings and ideas more now, maybe as an escape to my evermore serious (and sometimes boring) adult life. In general, while I enjoy fewer stories now, I also enjoy them more deeply.

I really enjoyed the first half of the story. The second is probably also good, just not my taste. I love a setting where humans are the stand out creatures and I feel like giving the interactions between fantasy races more focus works well. Usually elves and dwarfs and so on are more defined by their relations to humans. With us out of the picture this fantasy society feels even more mystical.

I love to take a small carabiner or two, clipped onto the outside of my pack. They've been surprisingly helpful. I also often bring some ziplock bags in different sizes. They're mostly useful on longer hikes.
