I work in a used books shop and read mostly Science fiction and fantasy, but not exclusively.
I game a bit, but wouldn't call myself a gamer. My favourite game over the past several years is #TheLongDark

Interested, but not very knowledgeable about Walkability, 15 min city, rewilding.

I have some issues with physical pain as well as social anxiety.

Tonight on 00:00 CET+1 mstdn.social will go offline for a planned server migration⚠️

I’m trying my best to make this all happen as fast as possible but I estimate a max of 6 hours of downtime.

In the meanwhile you can keep an eye out on our status page at: https://status.mstdn.social

How often do you use the ?

(read and / or write)

  • Monthly: ~few times a month
  • Weekly: ~some days per week
  • Daily: ~every day at least once

@stux I picked weekly, because it varies so much. Sometimes it's many times a day, and others it's less than weekly. Not really a social media type of person (whatever that would be)

I hereby propose a national program to offer paid leave to individuals who need to catch up on their reading.

@zeigert personally, I'd argue for adding it to the Universal Bill of Human Rights.

Awhile ago I saw a post mentioning @clarkesworld a magazine I didn't know anything about. Nothing strange about that, I'm usually not particularly clued up. It mentioned something about subscriptions via Amazon ending. I got curious and bought a digital copy, and realised how much fun short fiction can be.
Magazines need subscribers so we can get that fun fiction. So, now I am one. If you can, subscribe to a magazine and help not just them, but other readers too

Edit: to clarify, I'm just curious not criticising anyone.

Going to organise my bookshelf soon with all these new books 📚 Do you organize your books by color, author, genre, or in some creative way? Show me your shelves!

@razumasu author and title, fiction and non-fiction on separate bookcases, and graphic novels/comics (e g Asterix)/manga by title and number (mostly).

@bookstodon
I use #Linux as the main OS on my computers, but also use Windows 10 on one.
For the sole reason to download the #ebooks I buy.
I play the occasional Windows-only game as well, but those I can do without.
I can't do without ebooks.
I really, really wish there was an open standard for getting any ebook, with or without #drm, onto any device without having to rely on a single piece of software from one company.
#EU, do something!

At work today we got the mail sent about their use of our content on their services.
I filled in the form to opt out (commenting that this should be opt-in, not opt-out to begin with).
The confirmation arrived pretty instantly.
I bet it was penned by an AI.

My phone just popped up a suggestion from YouTube about a new type of drone. Before even checking what it might be (something from students in Zurich), the first thought that popped into my head was if it was something might use.

I hate that we live in a world like that.

"Together with the Prime Minister of Norway, Jonas Har Stere, we signed the Agreement on cooperation in the field of security and long-term support - already the 15th for our country.

This year, Norway will provide almost 1.2 billion euros in military aid to Ukraine.

Thank you to Norway for supporting Ukraine in our struggle for freedom and a just peace."
