rick_h | everyone have fun in the snow? | 13:41 |
_stink_ | only shoveled three times | 13:44 |
rick_h | same here, though stayed up until 11 to do the final one in the hopes I wouldn't need to do any more in the morning | 13:46 |
rick_h | looks like a winner so far. | 13:46 |
brousch | Twice yesterday, once this morning, none of them more than 2" | 14:32 |
rick_h | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1bEgLuk99U | 14:34 |
rick_h | kind of fun, didn't realize the nest cam could do a timelapse for me | 14:34 |
cmaloney | Good morning | 14:54 |
cmaloney | Took JoDee to school Whee | 14:54 |
cmaloney | I shoveled last night, but haven't re-shoveled this morning | 14:54 |
jrwren | same. | 14:56 |
jrwren | only a little fell after I shoveled last night, so I'm ok with taht. | 14:56 |
jrwren | there is still a little empty salt spot on the drive that never got covered. | 14:56 |
jrwren | rick_h: you read The Way of Kings!!! | 16:39 |
rick_h | jrwren: yea, rereading it because the new book came out recently | 16:39 |
jrwren | rick_h: ha! same. I'm rereading it right now :) | 16:39 |
rick_h | jrwren: I've been a sanderson fan since he finished up the robert jordan series | 16:39 |
rick_h | jrwren: yea, just finished book 1 again last night and onto 2 | 16:40 |
rick_h | shoveling is great audible book time :) | 16:40 |
jrwren | cool. | 16:40 |
jrwren | I find its easier to re-read. The first read was great, but also, just because it is sooo long... i feel like i didn't enjoy certain parts as much as I am on the second read. | 16:40 |
rick_h | yea, true. | 16:41 |
rick_h | jrwren: check out the author's series for mistborn. I really liked those | 16:41 |
rick_h | jrwren: and the steelheart stuff is an interesting take | 16:41 |
rick_h | funny how he hops around adding a book to different series at a time | 16:41 |
jrwren | I read the mistborn trilogy last month or so. | 16:41 |
jrwren | It was ok, good even, but not as good as stormlight, IMO | 16:42 |
rick_h | no, different for sure | 16:42 |
rick_h | I can't always do 1k pages giant books back to back to back | 16:42 |
jrwren | I usually don't like fantasy, so I'd probably never have picked up mistborn, but my new boss bought it for me for my birthday because he heard htat I liked stormlight :) | 16:42 |
rick_h | I try to mix up fiction/non fiction at least but always good to have something lighter to blow through | 16:42 |
rick_h | hah | 16:42 |
rick_h | I grew up on fantasy. the D&D books, dritz, and the wheel of time series | 16:43 |
jrwren | yeah, I hadn't read much fiction at all this year until I got to that a couple months ago | 16:43 |
rick_h | it's more work for me to find interesting non-fiction to check out | 16:43 |
jrwren | too much non fiction, so this has been a nice diversion | 16:43 |
rick_h | yea, a good story is nice | 16:43 |
rick_h | that was my big complaint with the latest hodgeman book. No real story to pull it together | 16:44 |
jrwren | I don't think I've read him. | 16:44 |
rick_h | I love his judge john hodgeman postcast and he has some funny books of fake facts | 16:45 |
cmaloney | My year of reading was pretty much in the toilet | 17:47 |
cmaloney | (and I don't mean that most of my reading was on the toilet) | 17:48 |
jrwren | potty human books eh? | 17:48 |
cmaloney | heh | 17:48 |
cmaloney | Lots of starts and stops | 17:48 |
rick_h | lol | 17:49 |
rick_h | I find I go in big waves | 17:49 |
rick_h | lots of podcasts, lots of reading/audio books | 17:49 |
rick_h | I thought I hadn't read much, but I did at the start and end of the year I guess. Just the middle was mainly a podcast world | 17:50 |
cmaloney | Yeah | 17:53 |
cmaloney | Also: Time to re-up the EFF membership | 17:55 |
cmaloney | looks like there's gonna be some legal wrangling to knock down this FCC stupidity | 17:56 |
cmaloney | Even thought the FCC building is apparently being evacuated | 17:56 |
Scary_Guy | https://www.commondreams.org/news/2017/12/13/property-verizon-projected-fcc-headquarters-ahead-vote-destroy-net-neutrality | 18:53 |
Scary_Guy | I say let it burn. we need people good and pissed off for any real change | 18:53 |
