I am in my forties too. Travel is one of my favorite activities. Traveling solo is great - I love and enjoy traveling with my family, however, solo travel can be liberating. What's your rough itinerary? I love making travel plans for others (and me).

I used to regularly read Paul Graham's blog. When he posted[1] about the startups they funded, he linked to Reddit. I tried it out and was immediately hooked. My friend and collaborator, and I started having almost daily discussions on articles that were posted. Which still happens sometimes.

Back then there were no comments and no subreddits too.

The Gorilla Hunters (1861) by R. M. Ballentyne
The sequel to the popular 'Coral Island' is my earliest rememberable book that made me laugh out loud. Ballentyne's juvenile adventure fiction was an influence on R.L. Stevenson.
Agree with the emerging consensus of this thread - Catch 22, Walk in the woods and Hitchhikers guide are definitely among the top funniest books I remember.

Wow! I didn't know that these games were ported to symbian.
I played NFS2 on a Pentium running Win 98 SE (maybe even earlier on Win 95). The first machine I played PoP was an Intel 286 running MS-Dos on a 5 1/4" floppy. Also, had a lot of fun playing PoP2: shadow and the flame on a 386, with creative blaster sound card and a color monitor. Most importantly that system had a 40 MB (yes, megabyte) HDD. And we couldn't wrap our heads on why anyone would need so much storage.
Anyone had access to an Apple II back in the days? (Don't think they were common in India.)

Please share. We managed to get remdesivir for my friend's dad today. We went to KMC and got it at a nominal price. The helpline #104 also reached back to us letting us know it was allocated. One needs the doctor's prescription, hospital details and CT Scan/Covid test report.

Hi, where exactly in Besant Nagar beach? Something like "next to the police booth" or "outside seating of cozee", "between 3:30 and 4:00pm" would be more specific.

The 410 is also the 3rd highest partnership for all teams. One more six would have put it on #1.

Need a clarification - I thought reddit gold charter members get grandfathered into all reddit gold features. Is it not true anymore or does it just not apply to snoovatar?

Given that this is basically a brand new throw-away account, I can't say I really believe you. This reads like an advertisement.
Instead, something like
Hey, your account is brand new and this reads like an ad. Can you demonstrate this is a genuine experience and not something you are doing on behalf of Airbnb?
I understand that hindsight make things easy. But wouldn't the second option be more constructive?

Well, it was a looong time ago.
Thanks! I happened to see this and thought I'd help. I think being cynical is good. It was just interesting that the subreddit happened to be named 'Faith In Humanity'.
If I may, a suggestion - since the sub is still small, can a more constructive clarification be asked from new posters?

Jess,
For what it's worth, I can vouch that stephbr is not a paid shill for Airbnb. She is a very good (offline) friend of mine.
I usually don't comment using this account, but you can check my comment history and see that I've been on the site for 8+ years; helped name Mr.Splashypants; hosted the redditjetblue challenge travelers; went to the Colbert Rally; organized meetups; etc.

Hey, Are you on the local circle group? There seems to be too much activity and not much of it is organized. Or am I missing something?
A simple "welcome, now this is how the group is laid out and this is what you need to do to participate" would help.
