Way to go, turning a legitimate question with legitimate answers into an opportunity to insult an unrelated group of people πŸ‘πŸ½

You'd be surprised how little money it takes to influence a US politician

UGH thank you! And also thank you!

I don't know how I missed that chapter. It's so freaking important. But then again I checked it out from the library and, being 48 hours long with a 14 day pending period, I've fallen asleep listening a few times. It's hard fighting time against these massive novels.

I'm really loving this series. I read the Mistborn trilogy when those were first released and never thought to follow Sanderson further

~~Ugh sorry I can't figure out spoilers any more. It was way easier at the other place. I'm just going to line break a bit~~

Words of Radiance spoiler

!When did Kaladin tell Dalinar about Amaram? I've been listening to the audiobook and must have zoned out. I'm way past it but I want to revisit to know how Dalinar reacted, specifically!<

Is Sharon Apple somehow involved? Can we get a list of virtual idols with suspicious behavior?

I choose to believe French is just ugly Catalan

To be honest I have no idea. I saw the Plugins option but no explanation as to what it's for

TrackerControl will let you block ads system wide. It's kinda touchy and takes some finagling, though.

What sort of finagling are we talking? Also, I've been using AdAway for the past few weeks with mixed results. Could these tools be used in tandem or is that just silly?

I'm a big fan of Kvaesitso. It does nearly everything I'd like it to do. Quick question though. I never figured out what plugins I can use or where to look. Any pointers?

The purpose of these corporate white papers is to inform (impress) potential customers of actual issues. It demonstrates knowledge and implies that the company has the ability to leverage their product or service to meet whatever the challenge is.

I wouldn't say boulder-sized because the meat of the article is true, but yes a bit of skepticism is always useful.

I didn't see it on droid-ify for some reason so I took the 5 minutes to finally figure out how obtainium works. Not sure why it wasn't listed though

If you're ever looking for a portable sound machine that is small and good for travel but also not on a smart device, I highly recommend this one. I got one of these for my first kid and it lasted for 4 years and many trips. The battery died after that due to overcharging but it was very useful for one setting. Got another when the second was born and they both still listen to theirs.

This post got me to figure out how to use obtainium. Now I'm legally smarter and enjoying some brown/pink noise

 

I mostly do everything on my phone and I've found cloudstream satisfies my needs with a surprisingly negligible amount of effort. Is there something very much like that but for audiobooks (and possibly ebooks)?

 

Pre-60s stuff. I love the general audio quality and the orchestral arrangements backing the dramatic transatlantic dialogue.

 

I want to go on adventures with my kid. I'm not an experienced GM so something or things that are relatively simple to run and also levelled for a 5 or 6 year old. Could be campaigns or one pages

 

The only thing I knew about him was that he works in construction, because his work shirt said as much haha. I had no idea how to relate to the guy. Or even start a conversation.

Man do I say? I haven't watched sports in forever and that normally always works. I wonder if he has kids. I can jokingly talk shit about my kids all day, but if I start with that he'll think I'm fucking crazy!

Is he not drinking bud light because of politics or because the yeungling was at the top of the ice chest? He looks like he works out- should I ask him about it? Fuck, I don't know shit about gyms. How do I follow that up?

Damnit I hate parties. Is he thinking the exact same thing as me? All my partner's friend's partners are country boys and this always happens. Why is this so hard? A third of my friends are country as fuck

"So, you listen to music?"

Fuck I'm an idiot

15 minutes of the awkward silence that comes from a dash of regular anxiety and a heap of how-masculine-do-I-need-to-be-right-now-to-relate-to-a-new-human-male.

Sorry if this isn't appropriate for this sub but I like the concept and want to see more engagement and also this just happened.
