Listening to that right now, coincidentally.
I've found a nice home with Mint Debian edition. It has the right balance between stable and current that I prefer.
I'm kind of curious, I've tried Seeds over and over, but it's unlistenable to me. Especially compared again Dear Science or Desperate. What is it you like about that album? I really want to like it because it's probably the last of what we'll get from them. Got any tips on appreciating it?
Jellyfin does.
I use jellyfin to host everything; movies, shows, books. It can tag matadata and id most books fairly well. But do not use it's built in reader. I don't know about comics though. I can then easily download whatever book to any device connected to the jellyfin server and use local software to read it.
I usually just use librera reader as it's open source and highly customizable. But it does have it's glitches.
Wanted to fully experience life!
Grew up gaming. Stopped gaming for twenty years. Now I game again. I've had a great time. Climbed mountains. Traveled. All manner of relationships. Built a nice career. Now I find I can enjoy games without that, I'm wasting my life feeling.
All humans "waste" time. It's odd to say reading is better than games. Or movies are better than TV. They're all just mediums to convey stories. And really, there aren't many original stories, just the same ones told over and over in different ways.
At least with games, you are actively participating rather than passively consuming. And yes I do read lots of complicated books, and watch fine cinema, and great television.
But I also garden, birding, botany, camp, etc.
The deluxe remaster game of the year edition really fixed most of the original flaws with LMS. It's truly masterclass now.
All of these recommendations are great. I'm always pleased to see so many cinemaphiles. I like lists, and have found many of my favorites from them.
Ebert's Great Movies List is perfect.
The Criterion Closet Picks, see the greats talk about the greats.
The Janus Collection has a lifetime of stuff.
I can confirm and I do use this feature of jellyfin. It works great. The reader is unusable. I use Librera for reading. It's great, free, and open source.
So my flow is biblio, mam, library Genesis, Anna's. Then to jellyfin folder that it reads automatically. Then I can download that to any device connected to the jellyfin server. Local is easy, abroad through tailscale.
I took a long break from gaming (~15 years). Then when I came back too it I found all these great games that had came and went. So I started parsing through many of the most critically acclaimed games. I hit Arkane, and Dishonored was so incredible (and I got Prey with them in a flash steam sale for a few bucks), I thought I'd give it a try.
I will say it's probably one of the best games I've played in my most recent gaming phase. It is a super solid sci-fi horror where you can engage. I do not like run and hide games, so this one fulfilled my criteria. The story is also classic sci-fi greatness.
It's also one of the few games I've got an itch to play again.
I got roughly 100 hours in. I only played a few battles over, opened most of the maps, but didn't complete all the side quests. I got frustrated by the length at the end and simply

No regrets whatsoever.
It is a big commitment. I did not dilly-dally and am a veteran gamer. It took me 90 hours to finish a moderate play through. It's worth it but it did start to drag at the end. And that's just one ending.
Also, don't forget to look at Standard Ebooks for legal, well formatted public domain books. It's a great site.
The only place I found it was on myanonamouse. It's a pdf with side-by-side greek english with translations by Richard Fitzpatrick.
Is this the book?
I've got some rocks on a shelf from the Permian. So a little older than 250 million years.
I'm being totally honest when I say, This Old House. It's always positive, inclusive, thoughtful. I've learned so much from so many different trades. They restore neglected structures and highlight local businesses and people. They underscore the importance of history and community. That encourage the underserved and downtrodden to use their hands and minds for positive community building.
There are 45 seasons and it's still going. I've tried to put it on just to have in the background and always end up riveted and engrossed. I cannot recommend it enough

Early spring.
I terrace garden across the hill slope. To the right is an alternating row of fruit trees, nitrogen fixers, and shrubs. The middle and left are the annual rows. They're hugel beds with heavy mulch on top.
Let's kick this off!
I'll let this be a placeholder, in case there are big R refugees looking for a decentralized Oregon digital space.
