Before the reddit api, I used to read around 24-28 books a year depending on length (Sanderson’s tomes will always change that number because it’s like reading 2 or 3 regular books)
Last year I hit 35. I didn’t really read books over 1000 pages much last year but I definitely know I’m reaching for a book when I would normally doomscroll reddit.
Oooo and there’s also the Cytonic series by Brandon Sanderson. Again, YA but really good (or at least up until book 3, I haven’t finished 4 yet)
Martian read by RC Bray is infinitely better than Wil Wheaton.
PHM is great
But I’m mostly commenting to give a nod to the Reckoners series. It’s a YA novel sure but it’s a super interesting concept
Plus, allowing it in accessibility options
Thanks! I needed to go back to the accessibility settings 👍🏻

Have made my day, most likely my week. Ads aside, I friggin HATE the Chromecast UI
Now, let’s pretend that I’m 5 yrs old. How do I get this to. Be the default launcher? I’ve already combed through the settings options and can’t seem to figure it out…
2.2lbs to a KG
Should probably make an effort to know so many as a Canadian but only know the one conversion
I’m always looking for creative “traditions” to start with my wife and kids. Have fun!
That’s awesome! I just bought two of the Christmas village ones to start a new tradition with my family building it each year
Google gets it for pennies through google “rewards” app
My children are old enough for Lego now.
I’m more excited for their Lego christmas gifts then they will be!
My place of work requires Microsoft Edge or Google chrome. I’m having trouble with the ad blockers not working. Is there some combination that I should be using that would circumvent this? Or is the only option firefox? Obviously, everything I own at home and personal devices are Firefox :)
I hate finished the trilogy. It was at this point I learned I don’t like SciFi, I like space operas
I went s7e - n10+ - s23
The s23 is a nice balance. I don’t have giant hands. I found the note 10+ to be too big. I dropped it all the time
Most public libraries have OverDrive. While not torrented, you can get lots of ebooks for free! (if there’s a way to “keep” them from overdrive I’m not aware of it)
Copying is a grey area still in our country. As long as you don’t upload it, you can download a copy from us
As an aside for people reading the comments here, and I’m not going to comment on people’s comments correcting them because this isn’t the place ( and it says it in the article as well)
I was told recently, that we should not be using the word Aboriginal. I know this will cause an onslaught of people saying "what do they want to be called now?! " but when you think about the word “Aboriginal” and other words like it, it’s not very friendly. “abhorrent”, “abnormal”, etc. Aboriginal means not original.
We should be saying “indigenous peoples” as it encompasses all and is more accurate. I’ve been told First Nations is also acceptable.
Bananas.
Healthy ✔️ Comes in its own container ✔️ Tasty ✔️
I try one every year thinking this will be my year.
Unfortunately the texture kills me
4 years ago next week marks my mom’s diagnosis and the 10 months that followed. Watching your loved ones go slowly insane and become unable to speak and move in such a short time (she was mid 50s) when they should be healthy changes you. Everything I look at, everything I think about is now looked at under a different lense. And given my age, there just aren’t a lot of people around me who have any idea what it’s like and assume it’s just handling the pain.
Like… no. I’m different now.
