In fairness to her, she swallowed a spider to catch the fly. That should solve it.

Ok. Now we’re at 99 seconds. What’s next?

Thanks so much. That’s perfect.

New comment in case you’ve seen the previous one… Has reading that thread changed your enjoyment of the book?

I haven’t read the thread yet.

Thanks for the heads up. That’s disappointing. I was excited to start it but I’m still finishing up Revolutions.

I’ll have a read of the Reddit thread in advance though.

No, they’re just desperate for some kind of differentiator at this point because phones haven’t meaningfully changed in five years. Hell, maybe ten.

That is a great review. Thank you. Just got it with a spare credit I had and it’ll be next up after I finish Revolutions.

I really don’t mind the time commitment. If anything I prefer longer form, more in depth stuff. Both Revolutions and The History of Rome (same podcaster, Mike Duncan) were very long and I thoroughly enjoyed both.

I highly recommend them both if you’re looking for something in the future. The History of Rome is really excellent though he takes a few episodes to hit his stride as it was his first podcast. It’s 179 episodes long and I was bummed when it was over and have listened to it twice so far.

Edit: If you haven’t seen it, The World at War is absolutely incredible. It was made in the 70s so they got interviews with some of the surviving senior Nazis which is fascinating.

I couldn’t bring myself to watch the horrors of the holocaust episode though. Just couldn’t.

You enjoying it? I’m on the lookout for some more historical goodness. My current podcast (Revolutions, which is whopper) is nearing it’s end.

You didn’t? I inadvertently saw so many dicks in school. It was just normalised and nobody cared. The lads locker room was like a nudist beach after 15 or so. We just went about our business.

Ah lads… You’ve gone too far now. C’mon. How in the name of sweet baby Jesus, Mary, Joseph and all his carpenter friends is this not an onion? C’mon now. Seriously.

But there’s a chamberpot within armslength?

Intrigue!

This is the context I came to the comments for. Thank you. I knew Mandy was a solid human.

Little nibble first though… Just to help you relax.

The algorithms are well known and documented at this stage. Before that, figuring it out was devilishly hard.

It’s Latin and as far as I can tell congratulating pope Benedict who was two popes ago. I guess the joke is that it’s internet explorer posting.

It has been a long, long ten years.

I was told time would speed up as I aged.
