But did your manager face any consequences?

I wouldn’t call that better “quality”, I’d call it greater detail. More colours doesn’t automatically equal better and the same is true for details or digitilization

I don’t look at ratings. I couldn’t tell you a single rating for a single book I’ve ever read. I also don’t rate books. I either enjoy them to varying degrees, or I don’t. Sorry if this is not helpful for your post; but it’s worth adding that there’s no right way or wrong way to read, and if it brings you joy, do your thing. Just be aware that you can change your mind, you don’t have to follow this system you’ve built.

Definitely Bruce Boxleitner, the character not the actor

I really wanted to enjoy China Mieville’s three “Bas Lag” books (including The Scar) but they’re just too gloomy and the characters too morose.

Then I read Tchaikovsky’s “Tyrant Philosophers” series and it felt like he out-Mieville’d Mieville.

Here was my nightmare on the day some equipment died and we had to patch around it manually

Daaaamn, did you see that gilded silver bowl?

It’s like corporations don’t know how to do anything but enshittify anymore

OR, were the raspberries always 300g because they’re generally less plentiful as a common fruit?

Edit- Oh snap, it’s my cake day. What a time to be alive, or whatever

I Mother Earth - Scenery & Fish

90’s Canadian rock, with “Shortcut to Moncton” as my favourite track, and “One More Astronaut” as the album’s biggest single. I listened to this one end to end so many times, and there’s not a bad song on it, my fave just in terms of number of listens. It’s aged okay. I don’t replay it obsessively like I did in my late teens

For whoever reported this as Anti-Union Propaganda, you are correct. However, this post has been approved because it’s blatantly awful as a piece of propaganda. Anyone who thinks that this post provides a convincing argument, please add your comment to the thread to promote discussion. :)

She raises a valid point

What if that’s how everything works, but in 22 dimensions?

I’d love to hear about Hannibal Barca. Please, tell us more

User reviews, huh? That only took, what, 7 years?
