Yup! Most of the books in the series are episodic novellas. There are two/three books that are full-on novels. I really enjoyed those because you get to meet some characters that you want to spend a lot more time with ;)

Speaking as a new member, I don't understand why commenting on posts doesn't count towards your activity and only making new posts does. I feel like that encourages spamming for the sake of moving up in ranks rather than encouraging contributing and adding to existing posts

That's an interesting video. I'll check it out. Thank you :) THANK YOU! Exactly the kind of stuff I was looking for. I appreciate it Thank you! :D Thanks for the reccs! I already listen to both, Safety Third and Trash Taste. Like I said in my post, this was mainly me looking for Indian...

Hello everyone, I hope you're doing well. I'd always been unable to listen to audiobooks until last year when someone on another forum made the analogy of working on listening to audiobooks like working a muscle. It clicked for me then and I've been hooked ever since. I've also started to listen...

Thank you :)

How do I get on PTP? I'm on a couple of private trackers (for books and movies) with good ratio and uploads

I believe you're looking for something like toggl. I think it can be customized to specifically suit your needs. I used to use it for tracking my general time and figure out what were my biggest time sinks (social media, YouTube and online "window shopping" for books) and I remember using the...

Thanks, everyone, for your suggestions. I ended up getting rid of my ewaste through the local raddiwala :)

I'm gonna make an oblique recommendation for a war series: The Wire. It is one of the best series I've ever watched and I hope it counts :)

20th book of the year: reading The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England by Brandon Sanderson. I haven't really found anything in the LitRPG genre that was done well, but so far, this seems pretty fun and well executed

I'm in Chennai and yesterday, I went to drop off a power bank with a swollen battery and a smaller swollen battery that I removed from my Pebble Time Steel in my apartment complex's "e-waste room." This room was supposed to be a collection point for e-waste from all the residents. Then it was...

Those are some good ones. Here are some to add to that list: Anna's Archive: better interface for searching libgen, scihub and zlib ProxiTok: Bypass government block to access TikTok (instead of turning on and off VPN) Astronaut.io: Watch random YouTube videos with very little views. A...
