Inreach Mini is totally worth the weight, not just for SOS but texting people (2-way) or getting weather reports. I've used it just for meeting up with people who also had Inreaches in places wit…

I think this is most likely. There are areas around Mammoth with CO2 warning signs.

I use a Mammut Barryvox avy beacon and a Garmin Inreach. Each for a different purpose, of course. They both cost hundreds of dollars.

Incredibly rare. Huge numbers of people hike the PCT in the desert every year, and some years 1 or 2 people die of heat exhaustion. It's never big groups of people at the same time. Same with hea…

I don't remember what I ate two weeks ago, unless it's some special dinner, so yeah. Every day I grapple with this awkward moment between birth and death.

The avid hikers I knew in SoCal and WA never made this mistake. They always knew how much to bring, usually bringing extra and dumping out what they didn't need at halfway. In SoCal I brought 2 l…

The hazard of which is greatly overstated. You are probably fine drinking the vast majority of alpine springs if there aren't livestock grazing nearby. I rarely bring purification and I've n…

Is there any mechanical watch like the Seiko 5, but thinner and hopefully not much more expensive? I have a 5 and like it, it does feel a bit chunky at times.

Isn't "droid" trademarked by LucasFilm? Are you using the term under license from them?

Agree with your overall sentiment even if I don't agree with every point. Article is just Korean boosterism from a Korean writer, without much reflection or critical thought.

Worth mentioning is that this article is written by a native Korean. A bit heavy on the boosterism.

The question isn't whether life could exist in a reversed universe, but whether this universe could exist in slices within ours like in the movie Tenet.

This, exactly. They hired the aerospace equivalent of IBM and Oracle executives to manage the company, and Bezos doesn't have the technical expertise to distinguish why this is bad. BO has a lot …

One step at a time. Forest management is a huge issue. Wildland firefighters are zealous, almost paramilitary organizations that try to vanquish every fire like enemy invaders. In reality, fires are p…
