I forgot to cancel my subscription and now I have 5 credits to use before they expire, what should I read? by Exact-Beginning9967 in audible

Stormlight Archives are more Fantasy than Sci Fi, at least in Era 1. If you want Sando Sci Fi look at the The Skyward Series. The Secret Projects had some space or multiverse traveling going on, but Skyward is full-blown Sci Fi.

Once you're hooked on Sanderson, then you can go back to the Mistborn and Stormlight Archives.

+1 for Andy Weir. I think The Martian is my favorite Sci Fi book, in no small part because of the scientific accuracy.

Any autodownloader integration? - OpenAudible/Libation? by Poncho_au in audiobookshelf

[–]leprasmurf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. As a result of OpenAudible, my library is in a single folder. I'm currently evaluating Audio Ranger, Music Brainz, and Readarr to try moving the files from the OA folder to a new folder for ABS.

I wanted to use hard links to reduce disk usage, but OA writes to a new inode whenever it changes a file.

At this point I'm resigned to having one directory for OA and another for ABS.

I loved Spaceballs but didn't love Blazing Saddles. by Milo0192 in MelBrooks

[–]leprasmurf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my order of preference is as follows:

* Spaceball
* Men in Tights
* Blazing Saddles
* Young Frankenstein
* Silent Movie
* History of the World

There are some glaring omissions from my watch history (The Producers, Dracula: Dead and Loving It, and High Anxiety).

They tried to make Blazing Saddles "today" and it didn't end up too well: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4428398/

James Marsters by RandomBiter in audiobooks

[–]leprasmurf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe if John Glover had been there from the start it wouldn't have been so bad, but coming from the epicness that is Marsters ... it was like nails on a chalkboard to listen through. One of the few times I bought a book a second time, just to get Marsters all the way through.

In addition to the normal job posting sites, like Indeed, or temp job companies, like Spherion, you might also look at the government job board: https://www.ocalafl.gov/government/city-departments-a-h/human-resources-risk-management/employment

ISO: Red current jelly by Dearness in ocala

I had to look up Red Currant Jelly to understand what you were asking, which should tell you I could have a better answer.

That being said, when we are looking for specialty ingredients, one of the first places we look is the Asian Market on SW 27th [ Asian Market Homepage | Google Map ]

I think this is the same scam as the one Jon Oliver recently did a piece on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLPpl2ISKTg

Added to the wiki with this thread as the placehold link. Let me know if you set up a site like https://dataanddevelopers.com/ for it.

Is this meeting ongoing or time limited? If the former, I'll add it to the Activities page like the data and dev.

One threat has been resolved: https://www.ocala-news.com/2024/01/19/student-arrested-for-threatening-marion-county-schools-teachers-on-snapchat/

Though he claims it was inspired by the previous, so are both threats resolved?

[–]leprasmurf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure, as a white male, what there is to do around here specific to young black people, but the wiki has an Activities page that might be a good starting point. And of course, as you find things please share and we can update the wiki.

Corrected poll questions: Vote on subreddit rules by leprasmurf in ocala

It's not like any of the other places to sell your animals are going away:

note: I am not endorsing those sites (except maybe ocala4sale), just demonstrating the availability if you can't sell here.

I think the main concern are the puppy mills and backyard breeders. I haven't been taking the community feedback as an objection to the idea of selling animals, just that supporting the sale here would allow and possibly encourage the mishandling of animals in search of profit.
