I actually agree, I own my computer / OS and I should be able to do what you’re saying (install and break things). But Microsoft is a trillion dollar multi national corporation and I am certainly going to give them grief about this because I owe them less than nothing, let alone any good will.

Why is Pittsburgh the place to be for furries? I dunno, but I think it’s great!

I believe this does not work for Home. You can bypass it in Pro like this though. Unless something has changed I am not aware of.

That’s awesome! I do really like Ice, but Ancestor is my favorite series too! I think I mostly liked it because of the “fan service” regarding going back to the convent, and all the stuff surrounding that. I am also a sucker for characters like Erris who need to figure out their humanity. I am very jealous of your signed copy :)

Reading them in order isn’t required. Some of the books are loosely connected to his other Cosmere stuff, but only one of them really leans into it (I won’t say which just in case)

Favorite was a tie between Tress and Yumi. I really liked the whole “Princess Bride” vibe from Tress, and Yumi was just cute and cheesy. Followed by Sunlit Man and then Frugal Wizard. I loved them all though! You?

I do like those things, so I looked it up and I think that is my next series :)

Just finished The Sunlit Man by Sanderson, and The Book of the Ice trilogy by Mark Lawrence before that. Trying to decide on what’s next.

Red Sister by Mark Lawrence. A series described inaccurately, but amusingly, as about “lesbian murder nuns”.

“It is important, when killing a nun, to ensure that you bring an army of sufficient size. For Sister Thorn of the Sweet Mercy Convent Lano Tacsis brought two hundred men.”

“No child truly believes they will be hanged. Even on the gallows platform with the rope scratching at their wrists and the shadow of the noose upon their face they know that someone will step forward, a mother, a father returned from some long absence, a king dispensing justice … someone. Few children have lived long enough to understand the world into which they were born. Perhaps few adults have either, but they at least have learned some bitter lessons.”
