  • Just tell him respectfully, sometime.

    As a parent, myself:

    • I totally don’t mind if my kids tell me they can hear me. I appreciate knowing our communication lines are open.
    • I am still going to continue having (probably still loud) sex in the house. Unless my kids fully paying a roommate’s share of the costs to run the home, they’re still kids, not roommates.
    • I’ll probably buy the kid some nice noise suppressing audio headset as a shopping surprise, sometime soon.














  • Where do you get books for the Kindle if not at Amazon?

    • BAEN sells eBooks directly.
    • Libby has various options to check out eBooks from local libraries.
    • Project Gutenberg has free and DRM free eBooks for most books in the public domain. A huge number of classics are available this way.

    When I look for a specific book, I usually find that simply searching for "BOOK NAME purchase DRM free” results in plenty of results.

    Sadly, I find it dramatically easier to find a free DRM free copy of most eBooks than to find somewhere to legally purchase a paid licensed DRM-free copy.

    As a flawless upstanding citizen, I never partake of such amazing convenience, myself, of course.
