@jeeva Thanks! I'll check it out

@Feeee23 Cool, well, I'm not the greatest expert on Sanderson's works but I think you could either go on to read the rest of the Mistborn series (books 4-7), which is what I did, or if you're interested in his epic series, The Stormlight Archive, you could start that after book 3 of Mistborn and then roughly interleave books of Mistborn and Stormlight, which I think I would have slightly preferred in retrospect. If you take the latter approach, I definitely recommend finishing Mistborn books 4-7 before starting book 5 of The Stormlight Archive, because that book references some things introduced in Mistborn. (Even book 4 of Stormlight obliquely mentions a couple things from Mistborn, but that's not quite so important.)

And no pressure to follow back BTW - I mean, of course you can if you want to, but it's not expected. ๐Ÿ™‚

@Feeee23 Nice, I'm probably gonna add a bunch of these to my list as well. I started and ended this year with Brandon Sanderson and I'm looking for more books enjoyed by people with similar tastes.

(would it be weird if I follow you on The Story Graph?)

@Alaknar @kde Yep, they mean on Plasma running on a mobile phone, which is not something you can do on either Android or iOS. (Those two are not the only operating systems for smartphones.) See e.g. https://plasma-mobile.org/get/

@LordKitsuna @pupbiru Same here. I wouldn't recommend Mint mostly because I don't have experience with it, but also, I haven't heard anything about it that makes me think it'd be a slam-dunk recommendation even if I had used it.

@Bali10050 Incidentally Evan (Boehs - the guy you forked from) is somewhat active on Mastodon, so if you wanted to get in touch with him it probably wouldn't be hard; he might help point people toward your fork. In case that information is helpful at all.

My capacity to contribute would be extremely limited, but I starred the repo at least, maybe I can chip in a bit at some point in the future.

@scrubbles nooo ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I guess this will be a good impetus to acquire all the music I was getting through Tidal by other means, which I was kind of meaning to do anyway

@418teapot @dwawlyn BTW strace has some built-in filtering, e.g. strace --trace=openat instead of grepping for openat. Might make it a little easier.

@arran4 @voracread With some specific packages there are conflicts between different versions, so you can only have one at a time installed even if they have different slots. I think a few of the core KDE packages are like that. I know that I had to remove some parts of KDE 5 when I installed KDE 6 on my Gentoo system.

@PureTryOut @boredsquirrel yep, exactly. Which is kind of the whole point of the Fediverse, that posts can be exchanged among different services like Mastodon and Lemmy. Though sometimes a bit of information gets lost in the process because of differences between the services, like (apparently) attachments.

@SigHunter Huh, well I can report that I have used Audex for many regular pressed audio CDs I purchased, and it never has a problem ripping them.

My best guess is that whoever wrote the website was a little careless and used "CD-ROM" as a generic term for any kind of CD. ๐Ÿคท

@then_three_more @itsnotits I don't see how "its a new feature" is grammatical, because we don't use "a" along with a possessive. "Its new feature" would be perfectly normal but I think "its a new feature" doesn't make sense.
