Ultralight backpacking. Gets you outdoors, can get quite nerdy though!


R.I.P. Golight gear (the original company that went bankrupt because they made such fantastic equipment and priced it too cheaply). I bought their lightest backpack many years ago and it's still great. See: https://sectionhiker.com/golite-trek-backpack/



Reminds me of r/edc, and r/buildapc


I feel like r/edc and r/buildapc run against r/ultralight philosophically. The first two are about having a bunch of stuff you don't need: for r/edc, stuff like multiple weapons and tools that rarely ever see use; for r/buildapc, excessive hardware ("futureproofing") and furniture for playing games. On the other hand, r/ultralight is about reducing your kit to the actual essentials that will be carried over nontrivial distances and used daily.


r/edc is more like r/guns but I see your point most of the stuff people "carry" about them is absolutely absurd. I just carry my carkeys, a decadent titanium wallet, and my phone.

I mentioned r/buildapc because the way the table layout specs on r/ultralight feels similar. People have a goal and layout everything they use inside of that backpack or pc-case. There's not much else the same besides that.


/r/edc is a thinly veiled /r/iamverybadass

"22/SDE, my EDC" - proceeds to have a Leatherman, 2 knives, a phone, wallet, gun, and 2 mags...


Rule of thumb: skip any edc that has a gun or more than 1 knife.


True its also onpar with r/insanepeoplefacebook too


"If they want me to ask to stay, they can go fuck themselves."

Swede living in London here. I've got exactly the same opinion.


Dane living in Nottingham here, I feel the exact same way.

I am working remote, so my job moves with me, and it might be back home, hopefully with my british girlfriend :) but I fear the future, and how much bureaucracy we will face.


Spoken like a true Viking: take their gold AND their wenches!


in the same boat, let me know if you find any decent candidates.
