There’s really no perfect standard for length in any format. I read on my phone so one page to you may be 5 pages to me.
I could see the word standard itself being the only reliable format. Like Standard Ebook uses as a measure for book length, but it may be hard to adopt generally.
“I read 567,000 words last month,” may come off oddly. But certainly not unreasonable.
“Let’s do a 200,000 word/month challenge!”
I like the idea of having one big book to read in a year. I have done that with East of Eden and the Glass Bead Game. Both of which are meaty epic books. I tackled them initially as a rebellion against the short attention span world we live in. Even in reading niches, I all too often see reading challenges that set # of book goals. I think it’s absurd to claim that someone has read 20 books in a year that are short, verses one long book. The former is often applauded while the latter is not.
Karamazov has been one that I’ve been wanting to read all my life, so maybe I’ll attempt it in 2024 myself.
Non linear writing is a struggle for me, but I try to challenge myself with it. I’m currently reading The Waves by Virginia Woolf which is incredibly abstract but beautiful. I assume Gravity’s Rainbow to be similar. But it’s a thick book too.

You can set up a jellyfin client on the Dell and control it from anything else. Jellyfin has clients for Linux Windows and Android. Once set up you can output anything from anywhere and control any of them from each other.
Just leave one of these on your headphones and you’ll never know the difference.
Simple, easy, elegant.
As for hardware quality, I’ve had my Tab S5E for years, and it is super solid. It looks, feels, and sounds great. It’s one of the few samsung devices that can be unlocked and Lineage installed on. So, if you’re willing to put in the time to install Lineage on it, it’s android 13 and the newest version of Lineage on it.
