I read every night with a kobo e-reader (next to my partner who generally sleep before me). I use night mode and a very dim brightness (2-3 %, the max I use is 4 %). It's sufficient in my opinion.

As expected, matches the tectonic plates map.

I don't think so, in worst case it will just not work at all. First think is that the recommended requirements are for 'maximum load', so as long as you don't load it too much, it should be ok.

Now I think you will be more concerned about the behavior of the power supply when overloaded. It can go from a voltage drop (which will cause your sbc to reset or shutdown), an output cut or the magic smoke can come out if the supply is wrongly designed. There are minimum risk that the sbc is damaged (0 risk don't exists) although.

Exactly, this makes me very anxious. Feeling that we're just cutting the branch we are sit on ...

Well, I just finished Infinite Powers: The Story of Calculus - The Language of the Universe, by Steven Strogatz. Really enjoyed it, interesting for an overview of calculus history and how it affects everyday life.

I think I'll start 2024 reading by a reread of Tolkien's lotr + silmarillion. I, of course, already read it but one it was +20 years ago and two I read a French translation at the time and I want to read the original thing.

IR led, useful to use your phone as a remote control for various non-connected hardware

One of the best Kubrick classics. Love this movie.

Do you know how it works? Doesn't seem to be electronic or so... Perhaps mechanical magnet based or so

I mainly use Offroad map style in osmand. This is because I mainly use the app for hiking/walking and this is thr map style which is the best for that IMHO.

Still in Infinite Powers: The Story of Calculus - The Language of the Universe, by Steven Strogatz. I find that's a very good and well written vulgarization book.
