Yup, although on kbin they’re called “magazines”, so their urls start with /m/, e.g. kbin.social/m/RedditMigration

That all depends on what you’re interested in. I’m assuming you’ve come from reddit, so you could try sub.rehab to find new homes for your subs, although tbh I don’t know if it’s up to date or not - there have been some instances die so the communities had to move.

I agree, and I still don’t even know if they mean magazine as in the publication or as in the thing that holds ammunition - both make about the same amount of sense to me.

I find kbin more confusing overall, e.g. how you have both boost and voting available, but then for short posts boost is more obviously placed (since the up/downvote buttons are way over on the right).

I think most of those books are older than I am! New releases go into the to-read list, to settle in and get comfy alongside the ~600 others.

YA books are definitely a good call for when I’m short on time. Normally I only read one fiction and one non-fiction - I don’t understand those people who have dozens of books on the go!

Looks like a great suggestion, thanks.

I liked the format* of Dracula, that was a welcome surprise.

• I looked up the term: “epistolary”.

The complete collection is on Kindle for £0.99, so I have that now, thanks. It includes the Gammel illustrations, and they look great!

Ghost Eaters by Clay McLeod Chapman

Messed up sounds good, I’ll add that to the list, cheers.

Deebster, 7 months ago

Huh, that one’s already in my to-read list, I’ll add that to the top of my Halloween to-read list

Deebster, 7 months ago

No, but please report back :)

I was thinking it wasn’t as exciting a game as yesterday’s two but then that final quarter happened. I think we were a little lucky to get away with that intentional knock on not being a yellow, but I think Eng haven’t played that well in a long while.

Levantine Arabic says shamal شمال but that’s might be too slangy for labelling.

Deebster, 7 months ago

I don’t know, to be honest - I’m no expert, I just learnt some Arabic whilst living in Jordan.

I only realised when I rewatched DS9 recently.

Away and busy so had to do with the extended highlights, but that Japan-Argentina game was some great viewing as a neutral. It got away from Japan at the end, but then that’s the usual story…

Apart from that archive.today seemed down yesterday - I was worried they weren’t coming back!

I’m not sure I even knew they had a Captcha, I guess I don’t look like a bot.

Quest complete! What did the NPC give you in return?

After seeing the Odo version of the you mean x right? Right!? meme, this feels like restoring karma.

Your comment confused me since I thought you were saying the EFF was cancer at first.

Deebster, 7 months ago

Yeah, which is good, right? Built-in generally works better.

btw, swarthy means dark-skinned. Did you mean stocky or some similar non-slim word?

The last section makes me think they can’t be bothered to take it into production. It’s weird; they spend all these words describing the problem and their solution then conclude with but 🤷‍♂️ no-one really cares.
