Sweet.
@chidgey You are, of course, correct. Keyboard warriors are oh so brave and obnoxious!

Read 'em all over the years, except for Robin Hobb's books (bounced off them, didn't like the style). Good, solid fantasy.

That was disturbingly elusive, with no real hint except the steady elimination of letters.
@chidgey Any forum that isn't closely moderated seems to devolve into a hate-filled mess. Man-children need their noses smacked occasionally to remind them how to behave like civilised humans.

Working my way through the vowels.
From the linked article:
"The disposal of organic waste poses an environmental challenge as it emits large amounts of greenhouse gases including methane and carbon dioxide, which contribute to climate change," explained RMIT University engineer Rajeev Roychand.
That is ridiculous. Organic waste releases whatever was used to grow it in the first place. It's inherently renewable. A really bad argument for this guy's coffee-flavoured concrete idea.

Getting laid flat by Covid last week, with lingering effects this week, put a line through most of my plans for the holidays.
On the plus side, I picked up my Kobo for the first time in weeks yesterday, and blew straight through “Palon” (by @skaeth) in a single sitting, and this evening I’m roughly 1/4 of the way through “Windward” already.
Recommended.

That really shouldn't have been my last guess, though does reveal an unconscious bias.

Was looking bleak until it suddenly wasn't.
Listening to this podcast about the "brave new world of AI in cinema", I realised I really don't care whether the actors in a movie or show are simulated, as long as I can't tell. I don't feel any parasocial connection to actors generally, so it makes no difference to me if they're not real people.
Others mileage may vary!

That turned out a lot easier than I thought I'd be after a rocky start.

@chidgey So much noise, very little signal. Endless bloviating. The only winning move is not to play!

What’s most disturbing about social media is the equal-weighting of personal air-time people give it relative to reputable news and other forms of discourse. The ease of making comments, sometimes horrible, unthought, random comments, or even positive, thoughtful comments, can explode and take off and you’re dragged into a personal assassination by those that disagree. It seems it’s often better to simply say nothing at all.
