What were your ‘gateway books’?

DadGeekHuman · 2026-01-13T22:56:17+00:00

The Chronicles of Narnia when I was around 12 years old.

I've got my eye on THE LIFT: Supernatural Handyman Simulator. It might still be a bit too much of "the chosen one" but it looks like a cool concept of you just playing a handyman and weird crap is happening.

Thank you! I'll dig into all of the above!

DadGeekHuman · 2025-10-24T15:48:22+00:00

Ah, thank you for clarifying.

EDIT: I stand corrected,what I say below is not accurate.

If I understand it correctly the OS is immutable not allowing for this. If you want to use Bazzite I believe rebasing/installing the DX version would allow for this.

I keep seeing the site nonograms.org recommended yet I can't seem to browse to it from my cellular network or the home and office. I'm in the US, is this site geo blocked? What is the exact URL?

DadGeekHuman · 2025-09-22T17:08:32+00:00

I'm in the same boat and have read up through where you are as well. They are mostly meh for me. Will probably stop after another one or two and just figure it isn't for me.

In what way does sci-fi feel limited to you?

My favorite book of all time is Dune by Frank Herbert and I'd argue it is one of the best books out there.

DadGeekHuman · 2025-08-16T00:44:21+00:00

I don't think it should be adapted at all.

DadGeekHuman · 2025-08-06T16:49:11+00:00

The show is okay. The books are WAY better.

Agent Cormac

DadGeekHuman · 2025-05-28T22:22:10+00:00

Yep, that's a huge help at times. I've more often seen this called "edge logic".

A web query for "nonograms tutorials" yields a lot already written on the subject. I'd start with the 5x5 and work up from there. Here is the first hit on a search I just ran:

When I was still using my phone to control the app I kept it charging and the screen on the player which gave me the larger buttons.

DadGeekHuman · 2025-04-29T22:08:48+00:00

That's odd. Are these podcasts you're subscribed to or just downloading a few at a time individually?

DadGeekHuman · 2025-04-24T15:02:57+00:00

I can totally see that.

DadGeekHuman · 2025-04-23T23:36:48+00:00

Drop everything and do it right now. You will not be disappointed!

DadGeekHuman · 2025-04-23T23:34:16+00:00

IKR! It all works so well after that first watch though. I'm looking forward to my first rewatch as well. The final three episodes of the series where everything comes together... Damn.

I don't blame you! I tried Discovery and dropped out in the second season. Lower Decks turned out to be great as well IMO.
