deadpoet on [PC, Steam] Build Your Own Frenzy Bundle: 1 for $1.75, 5 $5.19, 10 $8.65 - Broken Sword Trilogy, Forgive Me Father @ Fanatical

That looks pretty & fun but I don't think my game pile can take any more until I've cleared a few.

I'm playing StS on Android. Thinking about getting Balatro on the same platform because getting it on Steam would mean starting StS from…

TheLibrarian on [Audiobook] Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey - The Expanse, Book 1 - $9.99 @ Kobo

I'm in Qld. We've only just discovered the Beegees up here so it's likely we're a long way behind on the e-rights front as well.

Wiser on Samsung Galaxy A55 5G (128GB) - $5.62/Month over 24 Months ($134.88 Total) with a Mobile Plan (from $49/Month) @ Vodafone

In which case it's a great deal.

TheLibrarian on [Audiobook] Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey - The Expanse, Book 1 - $9.99 @ Kobo

I would like to know what those libraries are as all the ones I've tried required a local address.

naturaldecay on [Audiobook] Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey - The Expanse, Book 1 - $9.99 @ Kobo

There aren't many shows with such an expansive universe that the first half of the first season isn't all over the place. I can accept that…

24Gb is a super weird config to have, unless you can allocate system memory to the GPU which I don't think you can. This is like one of…

finchnchimps on [Audiobook] Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey - The Expanse, Book 1 - $9.99 @ Kobo

Loved the first series of the show but for some reason couldn't get into the 2nd one. It's on my list to have another go after I've got a…

Nothing wrong with that. We're at a point now where skipping a generation doesn't come with the same performance cost it once did. Even the…
