Ah, yeah. I don't Discord or Twitter so wasn't thinking about those. ArsTechnica would benefit as well. They still do the forum-style inline replies which is hard to follow.

Don't most lemmy clients do that?
Crushed hand in equipment? Inaprovaline.
Gastric discomfort? Inaprovaline.
Clinically dead? Believe it or not, Inaprovaline.
Bonus/Derivative meme, and I don't know why this made me laugh so much:
Yeah, I was in that situation. Hard copies were limited to used paperbacks for $150. Yikes.
I ended up buying the audiobook and high-seas'd the epub which I'm reading. I refuse to buy DRM'd ebooks but I do want the authors to get paid, so I compromise by buying the audiobook (which is a bit more expensive than the DRM'd e-edition) and acquiring the epub by...other means.
Not so much "watch" but I'm about 1/3 through Andrew Robinson's "A Stitch in Time". The way it's written, it's the perfect book to pick up and read when I have a few spare moments.
My saved items / wish list is full of stuff I want and could use. When I have some extra money, it's difficult to choose one thing, and I get stuck in limbo. So given I could set limits and hit a button, I feel like it would help me.
Despite posting a photo of the book in my hand, I haven't read it for a good minute. You're referring to the clinic scene? (I think that's first in the book, but not 100%).
Heh, that's happened a lot since our org updated to Win11. Updates in the middle of the day (despite IT assuring us those only install after hours 🙄) and people just randomly drop from meetings as their PCs reboot. Project manager almost called shenanigans on that until it happened to her mid-meeting.
Today (well, yesterday now), mine was just "Preparing to hibernate due to low battery" and I was like "wait, what?!" and was frantically making sure everything got saved (this old workhorse doesn't always want to resume from hibernate). Turns out I had the cord plugged into the laptop but didn't plug it into the outlet 
And Alpha 5 is Barclay (not Data like you'd think lol).
