This whole thing has made me wonder given search engine indexing of articles and creation of search engine knowledge graphs.

Though I assume stuff behind paywalls isn’t indexed.

Yeesh. I wonder how many people are doing this, renting out their caravans like this.

I’m still surprised they didn’t just go MagSafe only for non pro models.

Well you can (and I do) buy digital versions. So no sub required. Or just shop at Amazon.com.

Promise in Flame by Sarah Hawke (audiobook) (i.imgur.com)
 

Finished off the audiobook, this the second part of a prequel series to other Sarah Hawke fantasy series.

It’s really been a pretty fun story that’s riffing off House of the Dragon to some degree. And it is a series that feel a bit different to her other works that I’ve read that have been a bit more interested in sexual relationships. Not that this has none of that, just this feels more interested in other aspects.

Now comes the long wait for book three.

Really am enjoying Ellory Lane and Harry Frost as narrators, especially Ellory.

I have tried it, but really I am pretty happy with Librarything. I think my main annoyance was the importer processing hardly any of my books.

Really have joyed this, the show and the first film.

Goetic Justice by Snerk Guy (i.imgur.com)
 

Trying out the audiobook of this, narrated by Bordeaux Black.

Well…it’s started off like many Romances I’ve read. Partner caught cheating and a messy breakup with the book about the protagonist healing. Unlike most Romance though our protagonist has no support network. He just has crushing aloneness. Till he gets involved with the supernatural at least.

Private school funding increased twice as much as public schools’ in decade after Gonski, data shows in c/australia@aussie.zone
[–] quasar@aussie.zone 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

How not shocking. And how not shocking that Labor isn't reversing this as I'm sure all their kids go to private schools. And it just creates a vicious cycle in terms of schools and school resources.

So yeah, I’m using Memmy as my desktop Lemmy client.

I does work OKish. I just wish there was a refresh button.
