"Mystery interwined in a pioneering supernatural world. It can easily make a fantastic bestseller."
Recent reader's words

"As I reach the edge of the opening, my blood pressure is rising. Never have I seen something like this before."

This may be a silly question, but how does one actually read short story collections? Is it the same as if reading a novel? Do you put the book down between every story? Do you look for connections between the stories? Am I supposed to read them linearly?

Do you know of a book recommendation engine that will suggest fiction books based on the non-fiction books I read and like?
I want to get more into fiction, and it’s been hard to nail down books that can keep my interest beyond the first few chapters. Thanks in advance! And please boost for wider exposure.

Reader/writer question: In fiction what are some of your favorite worldbuilding details, the kind of thing you think is underused and underrated?

Random question: how are you using the ? I have my main account where I post all kinds of things (but I'm a dm at heart). I have a pixelfed account where I post random b/w pictures. I have another automated account where I post some rss feeds. And my blog is federated as well.

But how are you guys using it?

I for example didn't get into or at all, the latter I don't even really get the use for.

What’s better than discovering a new author? Finding out they have a completed eight-book sword & sorcery series.

It took me a little while to get around to it, but I've finally updated the "how to build a cluster" tutorial on the @Raspberry_Pi site for Raspberry Pi OS . So if you want to take a go at building your own , now you can! https://www.raspberrypi.com/tutorials/cluster-raspberry-pi-tutorial/

Trying for again:

  1. Kumquats and a yummy mini papaya granola bowl for breakfast.
  2. Quiet reading time on a Sunday evening. I'm still reading Jenny Colgan's Mure series.
  3. Watermelon and lemon-scented shower foam.

for a sleepy Saturday night

  1. Hanging out with a friend, officially my first social Saturday in years (though we've hung out on weekdays before). Trifecta of great convo with a fellow introvert, great food and bookstore met.
  2. Top-notch instant ramen and buffalo wings for dinner while watching DS9 s3, "The House of Quark" which had me laughing so loud.
  3. The fact that it's a Saturday Night and I'm about to crawl into bed with a book.

My friend Anne Corlett has a new book coming out!

The Theatre of Glass and Shadows takes you to a secretive theatre district in post-war London.

Reader question: As a reader what makes you want to start a book? A stunning cover? A great summary? Seems interesting? Funny? Other?

For me, I'll read anything as long as it seems interesting, like it has some real thought and effort put into the story.

We are working on rebuilding 16.6.x on .

It is a good way to start contributing to debian as rebuilding is usually very simple.

I'd be happy to help if you are interested to join the effort.

We have to do this once in a month or two months usually.

This is the list of packages we need to rebuild.

and this is the list of steps we usually need https://salsa.debian.org/ruby-team/gitlab/-/wikis/bookworm-backports

You can also contribute by testing the gitlab packages.
