Hey I'm looking at doing the same- what'd you go to grad school for?

Between Two Fires and his more recent Black Tongue Thief are so so good

I loved ITSOL! Just reread it last month actually. I remember just being on the edge of my seat for the last third of the book If you enjoyed that I would recommend The Powder mage Trilogy by the same author, he does a good job of mixing a mystery investigation POV and a more action oriented one, just like in ITSOL, and I find it very engaging. Also The First Law Series. I think you'll enjoy the tone and mix of Known and Unknown Magics in those series similar to ITSOL.

I can also recommend The Will of The Many and The Blacktongue Thief, which were two of my books of the year for their releases, if you're looking for fantasy with a different tone than your standard, run of the mill sword and magic series

I finished up VE Schwab 's A Darker Shade of Magic series reread and have been reading the first sequel book The Fragile Threads of Power. I'm almost halfway through it now and it's pretty enjoyable. Definitely slower paced than her first series but seems like it's setting up a more complex story

Yeah I do archviz and bim work and I've tried my hardest for years now to switch primarily to blender but even with all the plugins in the world I still can't use it as a primary replacement. And don't even get me started on some people's insistence that FOSSCADs are anywhere near feature parity for any in depth workflow with autodesk's suite.

I don't use Windows/Mac over Linux because I love them, I use them because a computer is a toolkit and I need specific tools.

IIRC only iOS has that because apple holds a patent on that specific implementation. Which sucks because on Gboard the space bar can be quite small and the timing between activating the cursor scroll and opening the language menu seems like 0.15 seconds

It's hard to say because there's lots of different causes of dandruff. You can have sebum build up, dry scalp, fungus stuff. If it's sebum build up, the scalp massage can help as can shampoo that markets itself as scalp invigorating. But not stripping or cleansing if you can help it. It can also help dry scalp in conjunction with a moisturizing shampoo. You can always mix in something like a dandruff specific shampoo every few washes. But honestly, even though it sucks, finding a good stylist in your city and booking an appointment and indicating that you'd like to have a consultation beforehand can be a ton of help. It'll be more expensive than just getting a cut but going forward you'll know what you need and how to ask for it.

I actually just got back from buying an incredible hand towel in Tokyo. Never thought I'd carry a handkerchief but you're not lying it is WET here

Yeah children of time was my first intro to his works and I've read 2 of his series so far now. In both cases my enjoyment of them peaked really high in the first book, then dropped off as I got into the third

Same blades, same-ish shaving frequency, but I change my blades after every second shave. Past that I can feel the blades starting to pull, especially on my neck. Still cheap as shit compared to cartridges for a much better experience.
