Ibn Battuta was a Muslim Moroccan scholar and explorer who travelled extensively in Afro-Eurasia, largely in the lands of Dar al-Islam, travelling more than any other explorer in pre-modern history, totalling around 117,000 km (72,000 miles), surpassing Zheng He with about 50,000 km (30,000 miles) and Marco Polo with 24,000 km (15,000 miles). Over a period of thirty years, Ibn Battuta visited most of southern Eurasia, including Central Asia, Southeast Asia, South Asia, China, and the Iberian Peninsula. Near the end of his life, he dictated an account of his journeys, titled A Gift to Those Who Contemplate the Wonders of Cities and the Marvels of Travelling, but commonly known as The Rihla.

How many pluses should we put between the digits of 987,654,321 to get a total of 99, and where?

There are two solutions. To find even one is not easy. But the experience will help you put pluses between 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, in order to get a total of 100. (a schoolgirl from Kemerovo, central Siberia, has found two solutions.)

Like usual remember to have fun :soviet-heart: and to dm @Wmill the answer.

Hopefully noone else was planning on making one :scared:

    Some people on Twitter are talking about how boycots (specifically in solidarity with a striking union) are classist and ableist, and I'd say it's an op if it isn't exactly how people try to dismiss veganism. Boycots aren't a universalism claim, if you genuinely can't live without the product, by all means buy it. You don't need to pretend the boycot itself is a personal attack on you.
