Aðalsteinn’s Questionable Life Choices
If you want to never be invited on another road trip with friends ever again, take a page out of Aðalsteinn’s book and grab a bag of harðfiskur to nosh on in the car. Yes, this man’s choice for a road trip friendly snack is a big’ol bag of dried fish. If you have never tried harðfiskur, you should definitely do so — it’s a classic Icelandic food often enjoyed smeared with a generous amount of butter — but maybe do it in a less confined space than a car, unless it’s a solo road trip and nobody else is around to endure your pungent snack selection or watch you dusk fish flakes off the frond of your lopapeysa.
This shouldn’t deter you from inviting Aðalsteinn on your next road trip — he’s vegan now and opts for Pringles more often than not.
Drive safe. Have fun.

My battery is low and it's getting dark." These haunting words, sent from 225 million miles across the void, became the poignant farewell of NASA's Opportunity rover—affectionately known as Oppy—before it fell silent forever. Launched in 2003 and landing on Mars on January 25, 2004, Opportunity was designed for a modest 90-day (90-sol) mission to search for signs of ancient water. Instead, this plucky little solar-powered explorer defied every expectation, outlasting its warranty by a staggering factor of 55, roaming the Red Planet for nearly 15 Earth years (5,498 days / 5,352 sols). It traversed over 45 kilometers (28 miles), survived brutal dust storms, climbed crater rims, and delivered groundbreaking discoveries: definitive evidence of past liquid water, minerals formed in water, and hints that parts of ancient Mars could have supported microbial life.But in June 2018, a massive planet-encircling dust storm engulfed Mars, blocking sunlight for months and starving Oppy's solar ...
RFK Jr: Food is affecting everything that we do...if a foreign enemy or adversary did this to our country, poisoned us at mass scale, we'd consider it an act of war...
