My favorite Discworld book is his last, The Shepherd's Crown. After doing the whole library, I felt it ending well. Then you read the afterword by Rob Wilkins... you get all the feels.

Re-reading the original Ringworld series by Larry Niven so that I can read the newer Fleet of World series. Currently on Ringworld Throne.

Did you know there is a fediverse reading tracker called Bookwyrm? You can find me here! https://books.infosec.exchange/user/xavier

Have you tried Open Camera or Cymera? May be easier to use another camera app.

This applies to you monogamous people, as well as us poly folks.

 

Is there a setting to default all external links to a new tab? I'm used to that behavior from infosec.exchange. I keep finding myself having to reopen infosec.pub after going down a rabbit hole.

I'm currently going through Niven's work. I'd suggest The Mote in God's Eye by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle.

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir is also an amazing book if you haven't read it yet.

One more suggestion: Rendezvous with Rama by Arthur C. Clarke

Lemmy Native - but only out of ignorance. Gunna start looking at these now.

Smashing Security Podcast is a great one, too. Less technical, more fun. Plus, they're on Mastodon: @smashingsecurity@mastodon.green

I've been running Plex for years (maybe a decade or more). Yes, there are a bunch of mainstream-ish features that I don't use. It's still simple for everyone in my family (including older parents) to navigate and use. I use it for movies, TV, and it runs a photo screen saver with family pics.

Look like the link is broken. I get what I think is a 404 message in Russian.

 

Hey everyone. I just joined and am a current member over at infosec.exchange. Is there any good way to leverage Mastodon in Lemmy, or visa-versa?
