Only less than a third of people read more than one book in a year and it’s only every 15 weeks! It’s over!

28% read 1-2 books every month. That's pretty good!
Who gives a shit about 42%?

Why read when you can shit post and watch tv?

Yeah I used to be one of these read a book or two a month guys, I stopped for a while cause everything became too same, so I’ve been getting into writing. Nothing good yet, but I’m almost there on ideas I can translate into a full novel.

Seeing how big tech companies getting nosier and how much the enshittification of the internet has already progressed I'm pretty sure we'll see an increased rate of ebook-readers, audio-players and actual notebooks being used going forward. I just started to be less online and using more of these uni-tasker (mostly because of privacy concerns) and I have to say it's pretty comfy so far. I just love sitting outside, getting some sun-shine and reading a good book.
I think my brain likes being in keto-sis and I love the better focus over longer periods of time. I'm currently preparing for a multi-day fast and got down to a couple handful of peanuts a day without feeling hunger ones. I even found a pretty bad hardware error that somehow slipped my mind. The worst errors are the few that don't lead to a catastrophic failure and just simmers away, undetected, constantly worsening the specs that no-one bothers to check. I already found a similar error made by a colleague where the voltage supply level was not high enough on all ICs so some ICs had input signal levels higher than the supply level, which resulted in weird latch-up behavior on some of the units, some were apparently fine, but for how long? The funny thing about mistakes made by other people always has me wondering if that was an honest mistake or was done deliberately for some weird reason. Whenever I find a mistake like a 5V supply pin that was connected to a 3V3 supply pin (clearly marked in the schematic) so connecting these in a way that creates this hard to detect hardware bug seems suspicious. When I asked him about it he said, and I quote:"There had been a reason for doing this." I'm quite sure this action had A REASON but I'm not so sure this was an honest mistake because it was such a trivial one. He may be a spy with the mission to infiltrate and sabotage a company that's a supplier for a MIC company? And maybe his "crypto miner rig" was not quite that but a rig to crack passwords and shit. Very convenient to plug that into our main network without any firewall in between. Sus. Very sus.

You should get back to reading if you want to be a writer. The two go hand in hand. I made the mistake of not reading when I first started out and it ended up reading more like a video game script than a novel.
