What book(s) has changed your life? in c/[email protected]

The Courage to be Disliked.

It’s a look at Adlerian psychology through the format of a conversation. I’ve looked deeper into Adler and don’t agree with some but the book changed the way I think about a lot of things.

I actually own nothing with USB-C charge. The only reason I have a cable is because my microphone came with one.

TV and movies is a lot of word of mouth for me. If I hear about something that might be interesting I’ll look more into it.

I watch anime and a lot of the suggestions come from forums or online word of mouth.

Videos from YouTube and Nebula play into suggestions as well.

For music it’s pretty wild. Because I’m open to a lot of things I’ll take any source. I read a few blogs, visit a few forums, watch videos, work from ratings lists or even pick it up from being used in things. Discovered a new band this morning based on looking at upcoming gigs in my area for example.

I’ve fallen victim to this a few times. Fox didn’t have the rights to the recent Ashes series so they just played replays of old series. Walking past it was easy to be deceived if the venue hadn’t switched over to 7.

It was only when I came back and the score didn’t make sense that I picked up on it.

What phone/OS are you using right now along with what OS you would like to try? in c/[email protected]

iOS on an ageing iPhone 8.

Very curious about making the switch to something like Graphene.

If I’m retaining knowledge I’ll go early 60s in Japan. Have fun and get rich in the miracle economy and protect myself from the bubble bursting in the early 90s. Then I’m loaded and living in a great place.
