How would one handle those extra scenes though, in storage as well as in a Jellyfin library?

Beautiful, thanks!

This song always does it for me, even after a decade and some years.

You can always try. It’s good that it’s almost immediately noticeable so you can quit the book as soon as the annoyance starts creeping in, without losing too much time on it. :)

I always regarded it as him using Write What You Know as a way to counteract the intimidating blankness of a new project’s first page. The default setting for him to start off a story, in a quiet house in a quiet neighborhood, never too many people around. And Go!

It never bothered me, in fact I think the books sucked me in faster thanks to the default setting. It’s easy to get used to, I can always identify well enough with the main character.

Terrible, such sturdiness. I’m starting to fear this will be my last e-reader ever… :)

I have an older kobo, the h20 Libra, some years old. I have my eye on a new version but I don’t replace things that aren’t broke. Let me tell you, that Libra will last me years to come still, amazing quality. I haven’t even mentioned the easy USB connect to add books, or the great Kobo store.

My next one will definitely be a Kobo as well.

I discovered this app the other week. The UI is the best there is, and downloading extra puzzles is just awesome, and so easy. Now I have about half a million sudokus to solve. Other apps are what, a couple of hundred puzzles at most, and then it’s over.

So long, and thanks for all the fish

If you’re into self hosting, Bytestash is very nice!

Added the exa aliases. Nice to see pacman points exa to eza as the former is unmaintained.

Yes it’s quite similar to the scrobbling and recommendations of last.fm!

Listenbrainz has decent recommendations

It’s a very intersting viewpoint, pardon me for exploring further. So future you (or me) is also dead until the brief flash of life where yours and his consciousness finally overlap, before lapsing into nothingness again.

It’s very reasonable even, to think everything not experienced this very moment is totally alien to us.

Thanks for stretching my grey matter on this dull day!

By that rationale, wouldn’t other people then also be dead, as you cannot experience their consciousness?

Distro Chooser is giving you great advice. I love EndeavourOS. First started out on it with KDE, now I’m on sway, everything just works perfectly, so I can definitely recommend it!

Ex-banker president targets banks… Now that’d be quite an unexpecred headline! Shame it’ll never be.

Olauncher - very minimal, no distractions. Shows the app’s full name instead of icons, handfull of links on the main page, the rest can be found in the app drawer in a long list of app names.

Edit: just saw the mention here of mlauncher, an open source fork. Making the switch now 🙂

Do give Russell’s History of Western Philosophy a try. It places those books into a much needed context. When I first picked up that book, it was out of a hope to learn more about philosophy, but after finishing it, I only had those three books on my ‘definitely must read’ list. I know there’s a companion book to Das Kapital written by David Harvey, but he’s not the easiest to read either. And Marx, omfg, that mofo has a way of dancing around things for pages on end through the most labyrinthine sentences, so I can definitely commiserate! It took me months to get through the whole thing. Luckily I was in the middle of a move, without TV or computer, so that helped a lot :)
