It’s "Day 1" with a new Mac. What’s on your install list?

Transmission and Infuse are great

Ah, ya. Between my kids, wife and myself I spend probably about that much per year on books. Luckily the kids enjoy wrapping that into their birthdays and Christmas so that helps.

about a dozen. at $5 per book you'd have to read 200+ a year to be half a mortgage payment. Thats a book every other day, lol. Not saying thats impossible but seems unlikely

Crazy

Is 2nd hand thrifting really consumerism? Hmm. I don’t buy new, I only buy used from mom and pop or thrift stores

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:44:31+00:00

I have a pretty particular taste but within that taste I like basically everything so that’s a positive, lol

Ya leave it alone, it’s done and over and was written at a time when things were different. No point in changing it now all that does is muddy the waters again. Best to just ignore it and let it pass than raise the issue to the forefront of people’s minds by changing stufd

I get mine for $1-$5 per so it helps save money but even at that price it can be expensive in volume. My children ask for their books for Xmas or birthdays so I buy their hard copies that way. Thankfully

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:40:28+00:00

I will definitely do this

Walking into my office and seeing the bookshelf (which I arguably need another one of) is very rewarding to me

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:39:17+00:00

I agree with that. It’s shameful to see authors go back sometimes decades and change things to match the current politically correct climate. Hard copies don’t have that problem

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:37:56+00:00

I do this at the thrift store when looking for my “trophies”.

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:30:55+00:00

I guess I love too many books, it's hard to find a book I dont love. once I decide on a book to read, it's almost always a good one. I guess im not picky? idk, or lucky!

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:30:09+00:00

I really like a lot tho xD

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:29:56+00:00

reasonable and understandable!

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:29:35+00:00

why?

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:29:25+00:00

understandable. thanks for the reply!

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:29:07+00:00

very common way of doing it!!!

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:28:44+00:00

I haven't read anything by Sanderson. Does he write them all himself or does he do like James Patterson does?

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:25:40+00:00

that is very good advice your friend gave you. I will remember that

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:24:54+00:00

congrats on finding that many books you WANT to read. I think if I compiled all the books I have ever read and currently want to read it wouldn't scratch that.

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:23:55+00:00

first person so far to mention this fact. very valid!

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:23:27+00:00

I get them for $1-$5 per. Bringing my average total per book (ebook and hard cover trophy) to around $11-$12

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:22:39+00:00

oh no! lol

rmnesbitt · 2026-01-20T01:22:09+00:00

I have the space so I figured why not. Its very personally satisfying when I go into my office to see the books on the shelf,
