Same here!

Although I do love “Blame Brett”

They’ve been getting a lot of attention in Canada but “The Beaches” have been my jam lately

Popstar is a classic and underappreciated in my circles

25% of men’s hair will thin before 21

80% by 50

Harry Potter The Martian The Cosmere (all for Sanderson’s cosmere I’ve done a few times) The First Law Trilogy

One I will reread but just haven’t yet: Uprooted Codex Alera Legends and Lattes

• Late Night with Seth Meyers
• Last Week Tonight With John Oliver
• The Daily Show

I usually watch monologue / opening segments and pass out during the boring guest interviews.

TLA is “The Last Airbender” for me

I’m wondering… Is this legit but done in a different factory or would something like this end up being inferior?

This Ali express one

Read 36 books and counting

You’d be surprised how much stuff you can miss in books and still be clipping along ;)

But in all seriousness, I have ADHD and sometimes my mind wanders and I have to rewind but it’s not often… anymore.

I found audiobooks to be a learned habit. I started with books I knew well already (hello Harry Potter) or books I watched the movies for (Lord of the Rings). It helped if I tuned out because I wasn’t going to to miss anything I didn’t already know.

A couple of pluses on audiobooks is that you can increase or decrease the reading speed depending on your comfortability (I usually sit between 1.4x - 1.6x, YMMV and it depends on the pacing of the recorded person). Also, you experience the authors work entirely without skipping things (which we often do as readers)

Apple exec doesn’t actually understand how computers work and think that that actually might be a reasonable arguement

I think a lot of Apple users fit this bill too so it doesn’t matte much if this is the messaging, a fair amount of people will believe it.

Seconded!

What do you mean by sandboxed?

Winter: 20°C when home/awake, 17°C when out or asleep. Before kids we used to drop it to 15°C at night. It was glorious

Summer: 22°C when home awake or asleep, 26°C when away for longer period, 24 for short periods

I’ve thought the same haha

Codex Alera! It has been really fun listening to it.

But for the best experience, any of Brandon Sanderson’s books in Graphic Audio are the best. Graphic Audio has just started doing the Red Rising Trilogy now too!

All this hate saying it’s not $100.

I have a well stocked tool box that I’ve only spent $100 on… each year.

New tools are my favourite thing to buy. I miss the old tools sub

That’s what it was for me. I used sync pretty much from the moment it came out. Thanks for all your work on it.

The reason I came to Lemmy is because you said you were moving the app here. I had initially planned on giving up this type of social media (the last one I use).

Long story short, thanks man!
