Looks solid and practical, I'll look into it. Thanks for the rec!
Thanks, I'm hoping for this to last me a good while :)
My dad has a goruck, it's taken quite a beating (he actually goes rucking unlike me) but is still very much intact. Wouldn't get one at the moment but they are a reliable brand!
I fully agree with you about the zippers. That jingly shit is annoying as hell. My Osprey pack has the cord type of zipper but with plastic zipper pulls on the end of the paracord, which unfortunately have all broken in half lmao.
Looks nice! The v2 appears to have some more features too, which is cool. Do you find yourself actually using the compartments, though?
Swissgear is a cool brand but somewhat over budget for me. I'll look into it though!
Yeah this is way over budget but it looks very sleek and fully featured. Thanks for the rec!
Foobar just works. I use it for audiobooks as well.
Yeah, I guess it really depends. A decent chunk of my school friends have ended up emigrating or going to university halfway across the world. The Internet is neat but timezones are still fucky.
I get a sense of satisfaction from pushing myself and feeling more in tune with what my body is doing in space - you have to pay close attention to form, muscle exertion, etc. It's meditative, in a way.
On the flip side, I don't do well in team sports because I'm clumsy with bad eyesight - I have a tendency to blame myself for being a burden on my team.
You don't have to work out solo if you don't want to. Most sports qualify as cardio - you can do that instead of jogging. Besides, you can always strength train with buddies and hype each other up.
Like a few thousand across five accounts? I had closer to 10k on an old account that I deleted entirely a few years ago, after redacting all my comments. Always been more of a lurker than an active user.

Just finished off The Deep by Rivers Solomon, a novella inspired by a song inspired by another song. Very compelling, character-driven narrative about generational trauma and slavery, plus a tinge of romance for the MC. Would recommend.
