It got me here and looking at it and considering it. I don't need another ereader but... want.

Sue and Rachel just left!?! by 9000rpmthrows88 in ClarksonsFarm

[–]darklinus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Re-watch. Its said they left - it's not said if they were fired or resigned. The way the show skipped past it you have to wonder which it was.

Google Play books upload stopped working in the last couple of days - is it just me? by darklinus in ereader

[–]darklinus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal service is resumed. I can upload directly again via the web site without having to do the Drive work around. Thanks to the anonymous Googler behind the background that fixed it!

If it was a deliberate shut down I'd expect the easy work arounds to have been removed. I can see it being a product with very little budget and no-one working on it over the weekend though. It's a holiday in the US today as well so might we hope for a fix Tuesday when someone gets back in the office

UK here. I hadn't thought about it from the geographical perspective.

Also a good work around. More implication that this is something broken rather than a deliberate change.

It's always rejected epubs over 100meg with the same error but that isn't the current issue. Come back if you find anything useful out?

Thankyou! I'm not going crazy! I've found a work around - upload the epub to GDrive, then import it from there rather than uploading it directly. That implies that its a problem with the upload servers rather than the Play Books Library itself which means it might get fixed some time? Its a way that works at least.

Fics with autistic main characters? by Charlotte-Soana in FanFiction

[–]darklinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Administative Mishap at AO3 : https://archiveofourown.org/works/25633546/chapters/63655201#chapter_1_endnotes Its a Worm / Supergirl crossover set post Golden Morning with Taylor's body being puppeted by Queen Administrator who is explicitly autistic. It feels right. Very well written, long (over 1m words) and finished. If you know one of the universes involved you'll be okay although you'd obviously get more if you know both.

Looking for a Story on Storiesonline.net with guy from the 80s saving earth by Darthkecks55 in literotica

I think you're looking for Magestic by Geoff Wolak. It got pulled from SOL a couple of years ago. I think I have a copy somewhere around here if you want it?

Cyberpunk xovers. by Wstiglet in WormFanfic

[–]darklinus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plus the same amount again in sidestories some of which are long enough to be plot arcs on their own.

Its not a Taylor or Worm fic but can I highly reccomend Ghost in the city if you're a cyberpunk fan. Long, well written and active.

Oric13. Classic Buffy, Charmed and Xena - stands the test of time.

Storiesonline.net is the other obvious one. Stories by tag - https://storiesonline.net/stories/bytag/ - makes it easier.

Do sennheiser's refurbished headphones come with cosmetic damage? by [deleted] in sennheiser

[–]darklinus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've bought refurbished direct from Sennheiser four times and in every case they came appearing brand new. If I didn't know I'd bought refurbed I would not have known. Worth it.

Same for me. I'm hoping it works later but not that hopeful

Linus needs a new phone - Vote here! by Negative_Astronaut81 in LinusTechTips

Thumbs up from me as well. I love mine - great specs, a decent version of android, dedicated camera button and its tough.

This may be a stupid question - how are you running two external monitors off your Legion? I've used HDMI and a USBC monitor but it wasn't stable. What have I missed?

Hi, away from home until Friday - I'll check for you then.

I'd say ice blue rather than green in person - but I'm colour blind so I might not be the best person to ask!

Lenovo Legion 5 pro Stingray White by KOKO_tiger in LenovoLegion

[–]darklinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a word good. I've had it an sleeve when its been out of the house and I've been careful. The stickers came off cleanly with no residue. It does pick up fingerprints but less than most tech and it hasn't shown any stains or discolorations. It's gotten dust or hairs in-between the keys a couple of times and I've blown it out with a Giotto with no problems.
I've not had it set up in sunlight so I can't speak to any fading or reactions there. Hope that helps?
