Read 36 books and counting
You’d be surprised how much stuff you can miss in books and still be clipping along ;)
But in all seriousness, I have ADHD and sometimes my mind wanders and I have to rewind but it’s not often… anymore.
I found audiobooks to be a learned habit. I started with books I knew well already (hello Harry Potter) or books I watched the movies for (Lord of the Rings). It helped if I tuned out because I wasn’t going to to miss anything I didn’t already know.
A couple of pluses on audiobooks is that you can increase or decrease the reading speed depending on your comfortability (I usually sit between 1.4x - 1.6x, YMMV and it depends on the pacing of the recorded person). Also, you experience the authors work entirely without skipping things (which we often do as readers)
Seconded!
Copying is a grey area still in our country. As long as you don’t upload it, you can download a copy from us
What do you mean by sandboxed?
Damn haha. TIL
I’m just going to stay away from it
As an aside for people reading the comments here, and I’m not going to comment on people’s comments correcting them because this isn’t the place ( and it says it in the article as well)
I was told recently, that we should not be using the word Aboriginal. I know this will cause an onslaught of people saying "what do they want to be called now?! " but when you think about the word “Aboriginal” and other words like it, it’s not very friendly. “abhorrent”, “abnormal”, etc. Aboriginal means not original.
We should be saying “indigenous peoples” as it encompasses all and is more accurate. I’ve been told First Nations is also acceptable.
Used to read a little bit (~3-8 books a year). Now I read a lot (30+ books a year). Love escaping into a fantasy world
Winter: 20°C when home/awake, 17°C when out or asleep. Before kids we used to drop it to 15°C at night. It was glorious
Summer: 22°C when home awake or asleep, 26°C when away for longer period, 24 for short periods
I’ve thought the same haha
All this hate saying it’s not $100.
I have a well stocked tool box that I’ve only spent $100 on… each year.
New tools are my favourite thing to buy. I miss the old tools sub
That’s what it was for me. I used sync pretty much from the moment it came out. Thanks for all your work on it.
The reason I came to Lemmy is because you said you were moving the app here. I had initially planned on giving up this type of social media (the last one I use).
Long story short, thanks man!
Same here! I’ve been enjoying Connect as an experience but I am looking forward to Sync for Lemmy. It’s actually the whole reason I came here. I was going to just give up once sync shut down but Lemmy has been a nice transition.
I usually watch monologue / opening segments and pass out during the boring guest interviews.
