 itzexor | oh first-first would probably be some harry potter book in school lol | 21:35:39 |

| duplaja | Audible sale 2 for 1 offered the first and third in a trilogy... that's how they get you, lol | 01:38:36 |
| duplaja | * Audible sale 2 for 1 credit offered the first and third in a trilogy... that's how they get you, lol | 01:38:42 |
| duplaja | I picked them up and figured I'd give them a try, and get the 2nd if I like the first | 01:38:57 |
| duplaja | My audible account is on pause anyways, but had 4 credits saved up | 02:05:11 |
| duplaja | I have a 4000+ hour backlog to go, so I think I'm good for a bit | 02:07:31 |
| duplaja | I did the 4 month deal for black friday last year | 02:15:39 |
| duplaja | so I paused before it went full price | 02:15:47 |
| duplaja | 4 credits, at $8 / mo, plus $20 in credit as well. Got so many books out of it | 02:16:17 |
| duplaja | (also included the plus catalog) | 02:16:50 |
| duplaja | Yeah. I just passed on one that did 12 credits for that amount (year subscription at a discounted rate) | 02:18:08 |
| duplaja | Need to read more of what I have first | 02:18:21 |
| duplaja | I only get ~30 min to 1 hour listening time per day, on average. | 02:21:45 |
| duplaja | Takes me a while to get through them | 02:21:56 |
 suburbanvampire | it's really nice to be able to read with your ears! | 02:50:38 |
| suburbanvampire | also, hello springtime LOL | 02:50:48 |
| duplaja | I do mostly commute time, and sometimes lunch break. I teach, so earbuds / headphones are a no while working, lol | 02:51:42 |
| suburbanvampire | switching to office-only work really messed up my podcast consumption for a while, because my ~2 hours a day of commute time were where I did my listening back then | 03:04:00 |

 techno.ghost | anyone here tried zorin or mint and which would u recommend to someone will prob not touch the console | 19:19:12 |
| techno.ghost | I know debian but I feel that may be too old feeling for who Im recommending it to | 19:19:49 |
| techno.ghost | https://zorin.com/os/ | 19:22:17 |
| techno.ghost | not paying for the pro but I think it even has a windows skin or mac | 19:22:20 |
 nyxholas | Is zorin just a fancy distro with compatibility like proton or something? | 19:28:52 |
 dieseltech | I like Mint with cinnamon, but honestly if your trying to use linux without the command line then linux isn't for you | 19:29:28 |
