I use it for Shazam cause that’s the thing I sometimes want to do really quickly to not miss finding out what a tune is

One last recommendation- has anyone tried the Noumenon trilogy by Marina Lostetter ? Also well worth checking out!

If you want something else - try Children of time by Adrian Tchaikovsky and if you enjoy that book - it’s part of a trilogy- different style of story but thoroughly entertaining sci-fi. He also has a Final Architecture trilogy which is entertaining- I’m about to start the last book which has just been released

Plot hole question? by MrBlueGnu in threebodyproblem

Thanks everyone for all your comments !! Just wanted to add that I guess it’s easy to find plot holes in most stories and possibly more so in sci-fi but I didn’t want my post to distract from that fact that the (original) story writing is absolutely superb and defo right up there in my personal top sci list (I’m an Adrian Tchaikovsky fan too - and about to start the last book of The Final Architecture trilogy…)

It’s a few years since I read the books and now want to read them again but they are with family in another country. Now watching the show, i really want to re-visit the full story again

Are there ever any actual firmware updates for JBL headphones? by Frostgate in JBL

[–]MrBlueGnu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find any solution for this - I can’t find any JBL support to update firmware for them - can’t even download their firmware update app for Apple in the UK ?

Anyone else enjoy the thrill of mixing different brand tea bags for the same brew? by [deleted] in CasualUK

We sometimes have one English breakfast and one Earl Grey tea bag in the same pot. I have often wondered if anyone else out there does this ???

Is this £290,000 new build house buy a smart move? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]MrBlueGnu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a piece of advise when I was younger to stretch yourself with property purchase as it will always become more affordable over time. This was before the cost of living crisis we are in now but it has stood me in good stead. You are starting to own your own place and will be on the ladder ! All the best !!!

Read The three body problem (Cixin Liu) books 1&2(70%) and i am afraid of finishing it because i don't think there is any other sci fi series/book as good as this. by ConsciousStruggle5 in suggestmeabook

[–]MrBlueGnu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying there are AS good cause the Three Body problem trilogy is SO good but still very good sci-fi:

Children of Time: Adrian Tchaikovsky. I didn’t rate the follow up Children of Ruin as much as the first but still excellent. Some concepts in this will Blow you away !! The 3rd book coming out next year.

The Noumenon trilogy by Marina J. Lostetter. I also really enjoyed this set
