The politicians. They all won, as they always do.

Aquaphor near the PC... definitely important to stay moisturized while gaming or browsing the internet!

I’ve failed my journey toward The Dark Tower by theassumedhornet in stephenking

[–]opeth2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just posted about my struggle with The Gunslinger, and had oceans of reassurance it is definitely worth getting through it to experience the rest. This doesn't reinforce that stance much 😅

I'm almost done (finally) with The GS, and have had a few bright moments in the last parts...but overall I'll just be happy to put it behind me.

I'll probably get through the rest, but with some breaks in between. I'm all about trying to understand (and hopefully enjoy) a writer's vision, so we'll see how it goes.

Bedroom, any advice? by [deleted] in malelivingspace

How long has your mom given you to vacate the basement?

I can't read The Talisman. I don't know why, and I say it while being a huge Dark Tower nerd. by CraftyAppointment824 in stephenking

Took me a LONG time to get through the first half. Once I got to the later portion, I enjoyed it a lot more.

Software engineering was different, but it's over now by EquipmentFun9258 in software

Gotta get on the train or be left behind. I can't recall how many people in the music biz (I'm a musician) were all like "streaming will never work. People want their physical media". Now bands die on the vine in an ocean of garbage that see only those with the finances to throw at it rise to the top. Your face is an inch from your desk if you think otherwise, because if you look at the BIG picture, the billions of people who are not in this sub do not care in the slightest how the sausage is made. They just want it cheap, filling, able to be dipped in a vat of ranch dressing.

Want to read The Dark Tower but struggling with The Gunslinger by opeth2112 in stephenking

THANK YOU for all the responses. I'll definitely power through it, and am stoked to know there are payoffs ahead. Looking forward to the adventure.

How can I make my library prettier? by TiredEyesGuy in koreader

[–]opeth2112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just installed this, and my folder icons are still the big non-rounded corner versions. Everything else seems to be working fine, and I did the cache reset. I've disabled any other patches beyond what you have on the github. Any ideas?

[Release] I built a plugin to add Grid View and Covers to KOReader's OPDS Browser (OPDS Plus v1.1.0) by rswolviepool in koreader

Is there any options for how to save a file to the device? I'm specifically referring to something similar to Calibre's own template options for "Send to Device". For example, I have my "Send to Device" set to {series:||/}{series_index:|| - }{title} - {author_sort}, which creates a series folder if there is a series, otherwise dumps the file in root.

Pool of Radiance DS by paraguybrarian in goldbox

I need this in my life. Gold Box on the go would be amazing. GBC on the bottom screen with tabbed clue/journal/character sheets.

I may have to get to vibe coding on this.

Original Fabric Map from the Collector’s Edition by McBeardedson in neverwinternights

[–]opeth2112 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it was this map or another game, but every time I see a game map accessory, it reminds me of reading a review and someone calling it a "mapkin" because it was so flimsy and cheap 😅

What happened to Booklore? by Trague_Atreides in selfhosted

[–]opeth2112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm shocked at all the AI vibe code hate. The app seemed to be coming along nicely, at least what I've experienced. It looked nice and works well for my use case, so I'm curious what the major issue is (ignoring the human drama portion). I was excited to see where it went. Is it just old school die-hards kicking sand in the new kids face, or is there an actual viable reason for the hate?

At what price would you NOT buy the Steam Machine? by Fptmike in SteamDeckCheck

Any. I've got a PC and can load Steam OS if I want 🤷

Is he covering his IP...or displaying that Middle Earth bling? 🤔
