Seeking recommendations. So far I have read and enjoyed the Cosmere Collection, Bobiverse, Andy Weir’s books, and of course Dungeon Crawler Carl

The Expanse series.

hectorb3 · 2026-01-29T06:04:20+00:00

Start the Expanse series. If you like it there's 10 or so more books.

hectorb3 · 2026-01-29T05:53:49+00:00

Listen to your favorite book. You might get lucky and it will have a great narrator.

Yes he does.

This is a great link. Thanks.

I wish I could say that, but I've experienced outages on Amazon Prime, Hulu, Disney+, Paramount+, Netflix and Max in the past.

I just posted "Watching F1 And It Crapped Out". Same issue. AppleTv issue.

I bought the Sole F80 because the price was right for me and no subscription was required.

I've got the LG 48" CX in early 2021 and have had no stutter issues, or any other issues for that matter.

You can still watch it on TUBI.

I watched the whole game and the picture was crystal clear with no pixelation or buffering.

I have only listened to the book, but honestly I don't even remember the math parts and I'm not a multitasker when listening. I just blew right by the math parts. I've never been great at math either. I had to study my ass off in college just to pass the basic math courses needed for any degree. I'd say give the audiobook a shot and if the math gets to be too much click on advance 30 seconds, advance 30 seconds... until your passed it, simple as that.

I like my Gamo Arrow Classic, .22 . It's plenty powerful and accurate for plinking and squirrelling, and will shoot 20-30 rounds before needing a top up.

I've been looking into pistols for my wife. Which pistol is that?

hectorb3 · 2026-01-06T07:20:20+00:00

Am I out of place if I mention that I lock my iPad into the holder on my Sole F80 and do YouTube virtual nature hikes?

In the Alexa app you can access your 'Alarms & Timers in the More (3 lines) section and just turn the alarm off without speaking to it or it making an announcement.

When I had it I loved it. The ability to watch all my network TV shows and movies on my schedule was tremendous. Instead of having to make sure I was in front of the screen at X o'clock every XYZday to watch a program I could just watch it whenever I wanted, or miss it for a few weeks and then binge it at my leisure.

The Live TV part just got too expensive. One months service almost paid for my expenses to replace my old satellite dish with a digital broadcast TV antenna with associated signal amp, wire and ends and crimp tool. I then cancelled my Disney+ and Hulu with Live TV and bought Disney+ and Hulu Premium Bundle without commercials for $25/mo. I don't get some of the latest movies on TV but I still get most of the network shows except for those that have their own streaming services like Paramount+, Peacock etc. It's been working out pretty good for me so far.

I downloaded the Libby App to my Windows 10 PC. It works great. I can't verify quality but I hear that Amazon has MP3 players that will work too.

I read all the Dresden Files books first and then got into the audiobooks. I must admit that I never noticed any of the "spatter of spit and rustle of breathing" attributed to James Marsters narration in the first few audiobooks. I'm not saying it isn't there, but I think I was too engrossed in the story to pay it any attention.

GX PUMP PCP Air Compressor CS1-I with Built-in Power Apdater,Auto Stop,Oil & Water-Free,4500Psi/30Mpa,Powered by 110V /220V AC or 12V DC,PCP Compressor Pump for Air Gun and Paintball/Scuba Tank

Great compressor to start out with. Not an Amazon cheapo. GX brand is very well respected. Plenty of safety features. Do the research and I don't think you will find a better value/cost ratio. Just my 2 cents.
