One of the things i love the most is going in a city i've never been before or i barrly know and just lose myself
100%. Note that one can also do that in a city they know: there is a lot of streets and spots to visit ;)

Outside. Every single day, I'll be walking. Sometimes to go to some specific place, often just to go out and have a nice long walk.
Being bored is not a bad thing. If by being bored you mean 'not doing something' and not being 'busy' because then it means one can start thinking by oneself. Something that seems to be severely lacking in our so modern and so constantly busy societies.
If you want to know what are my usual activities, beside welcoming boredom, I would say: read, write, paint, go out for a walk (that's amazing too, for the body as well as the mind), spend time with my spouse, making stuff with my hands.
But it has kings and queens and knights, armies of pawns and thick towers to defend them during merciless battles. It also has bishops, but I much prefer the French name: les fous aka the crazy ones ;)
It's a beautifully deep game, and it's refreshing to be able to pour time into something with staying power that people of every age play all over the world.
So much this :)
Would chess count?
I mean chess is not not popular by any stretch of the mind, a lot of people around the world are playing it every single day and that won't go away anytime soon, but I'm always surprised to see so much more excitement going on around a new version of This or That video game that people will play for a little while before switching to a newer version than for chess. Despite its apparent simplicity (and lack of visual effects), chess has remained a challenge for the smartest among us, and will keep on being so no matter how much better computers can be playing it.
J'ai fait quitter Bouygues où elle avait internet et le téléphone : la connexion était poussive avec des ralentissements réguliers. Elle payait une fortune notamment parce que Bouygues avait activé une option payante avec la méthode de crevard consistant à l'activer par défaut, demander un opt-out qui devient impossible passé un certain délai. Son abonnement mobile était surdimensionné pour ses besoins.
L'activation d'options payantes sans me demander mon avis est l'autre raison (après les pannes à répétitions et le SAV AFK) qui m'a fait quitter mon ancien opérateur (qui était aussi mon FAI... quand il marchait). Comme je disais, ce n'est jamais que mon expérience personnelle que je partage (je ne suis pas sponsorisé ;).
Le plus cocasse c'est que quelques jours après avoir mis fin à mes contarts chez eux, le SAV s'est soudainement souvenu de mon existence et que j'avais des ennuis à répétition et, dans la foulée, le support client a jugé utile de me faire des offres à répétitions pour que je revienne et pour me faire oublier mes déboires... Et là où ça deviendrait franchement marrant, si c'était pas aussi triste, c'ets que quatre ans (4 années) après avoir tout résilié et les avoir depuis longtemps zappé de ma mémoire, j'ai reçu une mise en demeure de payer pour les nouveaux boitiers que, disaient-ils, ils m'avaien envoyés à l'époque. Appel, confirmation du sipport que si, si j'avais reçu et jamais renvoyé ce machin. Je leur ai demandé de m'envoyer une copie du bon de réception que j'étais sensé avoir signé à la réception (que j'avais jamais signé). Ils ont insisté, lourdement, j'ai demandé à un pote avocat de leur envoyer une gentille bafouille. C'était il y a bien 6 ans de ça, pas la moindre nouvelle depuis.
Des guignols. Mais j'insiste, je ne fais que partager mon expérience personnelle. Rien de plus, rien de moins.
Pour ce qui est de savoir si je dépense une fortune chez l'autre. J'ai indiqué le montant exact de mes factures, chacun pourra décider.
Neither Tuta or Proton will neatly integrate with Apple Mail if you want to send/receive encrypted messages. At least the last I checked it required for Proton a separate client that was not bug free (can't remember for tuta).
If you don't care about encryption, you may want to consider the Swiss Infomaniak.
They have a cloud offer which includes cloud storage (1to base), calendar and email, plus the online version of MSOffice, all being hosted on their Swiss servers.
C'est que mon expérience perso, donc à prendre pour ce que ça vaut, mais je suis très satisfait de Bouygues depuis des années que j'ai quitte un certain Fkkechose (dont je trouvais le support client aussi pitoyable que la fiabilité des services). En résumé, avec Bouygues:
I may have missed something, here so to make sure:
the best thing it can do is just make a document look good,
It can also help you write the actual book, worrying about the document 'look' aka its formatting is optional (and if done properly, using Styles, it's almost 100% automated) ;)
Wouldn't a word processor do trick? you can add links, images, refs, notes,... and have as many pages as you need (edit: and search them, add a table of content, and so on). LIbreOffice is most certainly already installed on your Linux distro and is also available for Mac and Windows.
Anywhere I can go that's at walking distance (do errands, go to appointments, expo, friends,...) and, like I said, to nowhere in particular just for the enjoyment of going out and walk, wandering in the city (or wherever I happen to be when I'm not home).
It's also a great way to get surprised and to discover places and meet people you probably would not otherwise ;)
The funny thing is that a few years ago I was chronically (and severely) ill, like in a real real bad shape and I was also severely obese. No exaggerating, I could barely walk a few steps outside of my home without needing the entire day to rest. I decided I had enough of that shit and started to walk daily. I started slow (not much choice here) walking a few steps, but I did it everyday, without worrying about the shame of being frowned upon by people, then I started doing it twice a day, then even more. And I gently started walking for longer sessions too. Nowadays, if I'm still chronically ill (and that won't get away) I lost a shit ton of weight and I feel so much better despite that illness. And I will feel bad, if I don't go out at least for a little walk ;)
