I like the look of Cu lights and I have owned one, but I am just not careful enough with them to keep them looking the way I want. I know I know patina and all that but after a year my copper light was just kinda meh and dirty looking.

Great video. I liked how he connected it to other footprint bases folklore. I also thought it was funny the presenter did not look like a history nerd haha

My go to over the past few months has been camillia coffee roaster's ethereal blend. I've found it pretty forgiving of my evolving techniques and the flavor is great in amercano's to iced drinks. Rich with plenty of texture. would highly recommend

well compared to some of the really dense classic sci-fi I considered it a light read lol.

I know that I read all the books and enjoyed them but its been years. The first one was the best in my opinion though.

I don't see many people recommending Ancillary Justice, but really enjoyed the series. I thought it was a pretty light read as far as Sci-fi goes, but it ticked all the right boxes for me.

The thing I loved about the characters in the expanse is that they were well fleshed out and while events were happening I could think about how other characters will react to it when news reaches them. It still had plenty of space opera/political intrigue for me too.

Dune, The Expanse, Seveneves, Snow Crash, Hitchikers Guide, Ancillary Justice are all good ones off the top of my head. I really enjoyed reading Neal Stephenson's novels because they are so thoroughly researched as to be plausible.
