Bitte -- so'n richtig guten afrikanischen Espresso aus 'ner anständigen Maschine und zwei Bücher und viel Ruhe. Im ICE gibt's nur die DB-Bordbistro-Krönung, Kleinkinder im Ruheabteil und schlechtes Internet.

Ich bin seit Jahren Wahlhelfer und staune jedes Mal, was die Verwaltung von Mal zu Mal noch besser und effizienter macht. Dieses Jahr gibt's z.B. die Wahlhelferschulung nicht nur digital, sondern auch für Anfänger und Fortgeschrittene. Absolut fantastisch der Maschinenraum des Gemeinwesens.

There are never enough shelves. Empty shelves are a book-attractor; I can just sit and watch them fill, form second rows and wedge books wherever they find some uninhabitated space.

Messiah sort of felt like an interlude to finish parts of the story and tidy up loose threads. Children started something new and exciting. I‘m looking forward for God Emperor. Just haven’t found the time yet.

If Villeneuve does the original Rama like he did Dune - that‘d be awesome. Full Ffocus on the science of the unknown and the exploration narrative.

Have a look at the Amazon reviews of the Rama sequels - pretty much 50/50 division between „love it“ and „hate it“

I have to admit that I have not read those yet - only half-way through Frank Herbert‘s canon.

The original Rendezvous with Rama is a true Masterpiece. The others are cheap attempts at sequels. Rama II is one of the few books I gave away because I could not put it in my library without feeling anger for wasting my time reading it.

Turnen ist der beste Sport ever.
Wir haben hier im Verein eine Seniorenmannschaft, da hängen sich die Ü80 noch ans Reck, und der Ü100 geht gelegentlich an den Barren (natürlich nur mit 4 Mann Hilfestellung, aber Top-Haltung!).

Awesome book. Completely different to the Hitchhiker‘s Guide but classic Douglas Adams.
Features bits and pieces from Dr Who Shada and City of Death, which Adams wrote initially.

But there’s a new aspect of the series that I find even more fascinating. Asimov’s robots require interaction, precise commands given in terms of human language. That’s quite a difference to the way computers were programmed at that time - honestly, who speaks assembly fluently?

Agreed. But we‘re not alone in this, and the other MS have completely different takes on energy policy. Most of the associations‘ activities consists of just keeping the bad ideas out of regulation.
