Do you need two copies of the game for that?

I liked it quite a bit for the first three quarters or so but I felt the end was a huge info dump. Normally he manages the world building in a way where it's not a huge leap to understand what had happened but in this case there were multiple layers of the narrator saying "oh, you're confused?! Of course you are! Here's an info dump about the cosmere".

I've read everything cosmere, but I'm not very happy with the more recent books that expect cosmere knowledge to make the story enjoyable or even understandable. And I feel like he's getting pretty lazy with that lately (though maybe the secret projects not having a third party editor has something to do with it in this case)

Any list of companies? I would send in a resume. Especially if they are also fully remote.

I started and finished the first two Murderbot books from Martha Wells (All Systems Red, Artificial Condition). Reading the ebooks I didn't realize how short they were until I got to near the end. I guess they count as novellas? But it's nice to have something fun and easily digestible now and then so I'll start the third tonight.

Children of Time was very good. There is a sequel, no? But I never read it.

Cool, Pocketbook Touch Lux 5 looks pretty good, since it's the smallest one. But water resistance is a good idea, that's why my kobo stopped working actually. And I can't see anything on that model about water resistance. Which did you get?

I had to use my email rather than username, though I'm aware not all instances require one.

On my last canoe trip we went over about 24 beaver dams, so this resonates with me.

A used retro one can be great, might just need a new belt and stylus, both of which are easy to change.

I have that and while it tastes good, some of it ends up airborne and I end up coughing or sneezing like crazy while eating it. Maybe I'm putting on too much?

What's the model and where do I get it? I'm thinking this would be good in some closets I have that don't have lights.

Are these just cities listed by population, or a list of actual communities? For example, Oshawa is listed but no link and I couldn't find the community, but Vaughan is listed and there is a community: https://lemmy.ca/c/vaughan

Thanks for making the list, by the way!

Anybody been to this area near Algonquin in Ontario? I can't seem to find a digital map of canoe routes other than the booking one.

Edit: Turns out Jeff's Map (of Algonquin) actually has the whole area included!
