@phantasticgeek.bsky.social Was listening to your episode on comfort shows. ER is better than I thought, so thanks for that! It reminds me of an old all-time tv favorite of mine-“Northern Exposure”. Seen it?

Who wants to put their savings in a bank that invests in #bitcoin?

#curious about what ID cards people carry around with them when they go out? What IDs are not necessary to carry around except for special instances? Thanks.

@support.bsky.team Has anyone considered a Trending section? Also, I don’t like X-style notifications, such as “I don’t believe it!” containing no content, but a few good notifications a day would be nice.

@phantasticgeek.bsky.social anyone else here interested in a #NewFeature of #surveys on Bluesky?

I played my first #MTG MWM today. In 4 games, I won 3! I was worried I would need to play all day to earn 3 wins! #newThingsCanBeScary

@cfavrettojr.bsky.social I recently found the Magic Story podcast. While waiting for Foundation to be released, I anticipated some explanatory episodes, as Foundations was supposed to orient newbies like me. Sadly, only 1 short summary. Where should I start to learn the lore and backstories? Thanks

@lutimestwo.bsky.social Looks like we’re finally turning the tide. Good times!

@scalzi.com Think that maybe there WAS an Interdependency series, or at least a knock-off. Not called that, the Duke and Cardenia don’t die, the church also has an AI “personage” like the emperoxes do, and a different ending! Does anyone else remember this show besides me?

@scalzi.com Oh noes! l finished the Interdependency trilogy, but it’s not the ending I thought I remembered! Is there a fourth book or short story ending I’m missing?

@scalzi.com Has anyone tried, or been interested in trying to make a tv series from #TheInterdependencySeries? Just finishing it (for the second time). Clever, well designed and s o o o o funny! Thank you for writing it!

@noisyastronomer.bsky.social I would check it out, but sadly, the blog is NOT back.

@marthawells.bsky.social SO GLAD YOU ARE FEELING BETTER!!!! Murderbot series LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE B R A V O!!! Thank You

If I use Mastodon, I can’t connect to a Threads person’s address with it yet? Do you think Threads would be able to track people connecting to it from other distributed servers such as Mastodon servers?

I think Bluesky ought to share the same distributed protocol as Mastodon and Threads. https://techcrunch.com/2023/07/06/mastodon-bluesky-protocol-twitter-elon-musk/

I’m thinking of buying a 1-burner induction burner to use with a cast iron frying pan. I’m afraid that the glass will get scratched and ruin the burner. Any peeps have experience with this? Should I buy it? What do you recommend? Thanks
