I know. I was responding to smeg who was asking if all parts of the shirt can be used as a cleaning cloth.

Some shirts have a small micro fibre cleaning cloth (like the one in your glasses case) sewn into them.

Sounds like bootlicker talk to me.

Limited edition, just like every other product Analogue releases.

They don’t change it. It’s just re-printing to keep popular storylines available.

That copy of Separation Anxiety was probably published in 2016.

There are an almost infinite amount of stories. Especially in the early-mid 90s. The editors liked to make sure there was some level of continuity and those little asterisks ( *read about this in xxxxx) are mainly a way for people to understand there’s more to read.

It’s not necessarily essential, you typically will just assume what has happened elsewhere, and comic subtext was NOT subtle (especially in the 80s and 90s!), sometimes the character will just completely summarise that plot from elsewhere in a thought bubble.

But it can lead you down a rabbit hole of linking a bunch of different books and stories together.

You could try to rebase to the universal blue Aurora version. I believe the ublue images are generally a bit more focused on end user and driver support.

Aurora - kde

Bluefin - gnome

Bazzite - gaming

My memories of the original are that it was called Dead Angle.

I’ve read some of Crichton’s other books, not all but a few, and I get it. I wouldn’t rate them so high. But I don’t consider these two to be that kind of book.
