Hum ... this has been an interesting read. Thanks to the contributors.
I do not like the smart-things so really don't know what you folk are talking about with your "google-fruits" and such. I have never used voice commands (thinking of Captn. Kirk: "Computer, take us to the nearest planet with di-lithium crystals. "
.... Mr. Spock: "captain, that is illogical..." )
oldest man in space = 90 yo!
I steer by the stars, which put me in the general direction, and let me discover places which I'd otherwise never see. But on trips, I do my research at home on this laptop, finding the chargers and local interest in the calm of home, and seeing what is near and about the route. Then I just head-out, with no more than a general idea in my head.
This gets us mostly there.
(playing in my head now is the brief ditty on Joe Walsh's "The Smoker you Drink the Player you Get":
"Where are we going?
"Where are we now?
"Will it be over?
"Will we make it somehow?" ( Daydream (prayer) )
(for you young-'uns: the plane is upside down)
