I’m trying to read some more books (canon) set in the Metro universe. The books don’t have to be written by Dmitry Glukhovsky, I’m just looking for some recommendations to expand my knowledge of the lore. Bonus points for chronological ordering! Ty
Seeing another post about aunt Jemima products that were discounted due to racial stereotypes I was curious what’s the worst product-fuckuo you have seen?...
I want to use myanonymouse to download/seed books but it requires you to download from the same IP as you use to browse the website. My qBittorrent is in docker container on my home server, using gluetun with a VPN....
When you connect a new device to a ‘smart’ tv, you must pay homage to the manufacturer with a ritualistic dance. Plugging and unplugging the device. Turning them on and off in the correct sequence like entering a konami code....

I am super happy with the transition, and for the most part my digital life has severely improved as a result of it.
