Hey, just so you know, you can sign up for multiple library cards and Libby will give you the option to choose the shortest hold times.

I know San Bernardino has a free digital card for for CA residents, and I think the Sacramento library has a similar situation but you need to get a card in person.

I used an app on my phone to get a rough idea of the decibel level i listen at, and marked it on my amp's knob, then stay at or below that safe level -- plenty loud for me.

Something like this, as a reference, and 80db as my 'max' level marked on my amp.

Denuvo is always online DRM software, that usually results in performance issues (reduced frame rate, increased latency, stuttering, etc.).

In this case it appears Ubisoft ~~avoided~~ tried to skirt the potential bad press from performance issues by delaying the inclusion of denuvo until after people had bought the game/early reviews came out.

Remember he has a doomsday bunker, he's totally loving the roleplay of someone upon whom the masses will turn.

I just did a re-read (or relisten) of Dust because of the Apple adaptation!

Also I read the Maddaddam series last year and found it to be enjoyable and very well written.

There's a thread about how people find new books, and one of my favorite ways to find things to read was browsing comments from the weekly 'What are you reading' threads in r/truelit and r/books. So what is Lemmy reading?

I'm finishing The Passenger, and about to jump into John Williams' Stoner. Excited to see what is next!
