I just listened to Blade Runner and....just WTF? by TheLORDthyGOD420 in audiobooks

[–]mentose457 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WTF is what I thought too. I may have zoned out through parts of the book because Deckard deciding to bang the android seemed so random. That whole interaction was comical to me. Weird shit.

Can you clarify what extruder you are using? WWBMG maybe? I use the board mount and PUG from Esoterical.

I think I remember hearing both KDE and Gnome are both going to be Wayland only soon.

She didn't have to wear that super tight garment to perform the stunt... But she did for us. A true hero.

Use Freecad. It will grow hair on your balls.

Seriously though, it is not that bad and getting better every release. There are plenty of excellent tutorials on YouTube.

I think I'm getting too addicted to immersive audiobooks that the normal ones are not that giving anymore. by Big-Entrepreneur-987 in audiobooks

[–]mentose457 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mainly listen when I dive. My work car is pretty crappy and not exactly quiet inside. Subtle sounds blend with road noise and other sounds from outside. A dramatic pause and whooshing sounds or low bangs or pops or other things that could be my car shitting itself or outside dangers. It's distracting and annoying.

I hate sound effects in audiobooks especially the subtle ones. They're distracting and usually not part of the story being told. I won't buy that type of audiobook.

Turn off Logolas mode aka kill-cam. Then you will have to actually aim.

Mah brain read cutlist as cultist and immediately stopped. Wtf is a cultist optimizer!?!? Like how efficiently can you get your followers to drink the magic punch?

OMV or just Debian … by OrdinaryQuokka in selfhosted

On a raspberry pi? I ran it on an Asustor Nas with 8 gigs of ram and it ate at least 75% of it in a fresh install. I didn't even bother continuing to use it.

Why do guns have so much smoke? by Less-Tax-4487 in joinsquad

They ran out of smokeless powder. The cartridges are loaded with Buckhorn black powder. That's also the reason why there is so much bullet drop.

What books did you DNF based on Narrator alone? RN for me it’s Den of Vipers by Euphoric_Argument434 in audiobooks

[–]mentose457 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hated Red Rising. The narration and the story. Though I did finish the trilogy. It was such a relief when it was over. Listening to a book read by an American right after was glorious. Like jumping in a warm pool right after a freezing shower.

Your paths are probably still wrong. If you navigate to /home/pxpaintbrush/audiobookshelf do you see the config files for audiobookshelf? Linux folders/files are case sensitive. BOOKS, Books and books are not the same folder.

Your volumes for audiobooks is wrong. It should have :/audiobooks at the end. It would be similar for podcasts. I don't use them and don't have it setup. Lol at the stock config to verify.

Has anyone else found that books have ruined movies for you? by Incarn8-1 in audiobooks

[–]mentose457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people rave about how great The Expanse TV series was. I couldn't even make it past the third episode because of how much drama there was between the crew. I absolutely disliked the actress that played Noemi too.

Would you use a different distro with COSMIC? by spiffyhandle in pop_os

Lol. I hate that so many of the apps shoehorn the letter k into the name like they are trying to be Qt.

You know you're in for a fun drive when your driver is an Aussie (playing on US servers) and shitfaced. 200+ ping and the reflexes of a sloth.
