    Look, I like c0nvicted and Space Monkey's Alliance, but the fact that they've got all their sov shit sorted and FCON is dragging its merry ass all over Pure Blind (and leaving shit stains everywhere) is pretty telling.

    I mean when the logistical power of Space Monkey's Alliance is more competent than you... you should probably fix that.

    Edit: and c0nvicted lost 3 JFs in the process, and STILL beat FCON to the punch.

    Horus is radioactive and PEOPLE KEEP TOUCHING HIM.

    I wish i could understand it. Is he some wild dark stallion that alliances just want to try and tame? But just get their skulls kicked in instead?

    That's to bad, I sort of liked NC. and unlike the other alliances that got Horused (?) they will actually be somewhat missed.

    While it's always fun the read about Horus's exploits... I'm curious, did Mittens sort this piece of serious internet spaceship business yet, or is CFC resetting one of the entities?

    Hrm. I thought I'd read lots of Iain's books, but I'm drawing blanks when looking at his lineup of books. Odd.

    Nothing a trip to the bookstore can't fix. I'm running out of unread books anyways, so a trip's forthcoming soonish.

    I can see both sides of this argument. I love the practicality of my Kindle but there is something about holding a physical book, the smell, flicking through the pages which you just can't replicate with a tablet.

    That and a tablet doesn't occupy the physical space, you can't stuff a bookshelf with one tablet.

    Don't think so. I've got a tendency to go for a bit more esoteric authors within sci-fi and fantasy (I decided a few months ago I wanted to diversify a bit and look into detective stories. I ended up with a book written by a woman, which took 115 out of 735 pages (I kid you not) before there was an actual murder. And the first thing the bitch did was size up which of the men were pigs and which she could "work with". Flashback to Melany Rawn, anyone?). I assume Paul isn't too bad, then?

    Indeed, I hate it when it comes to guests. With the tablet I have to mention 'I have x gigs of ebooks and that's what I have the tablet for' where the bookcase speaks for itself. Maybe if we could have holographic bookcase furniture this ego issue would solve itself. Also, usb gadgets to replicate the paper smell (with many possibilities on smells-crappy books could have toilet paper smell, pastry guides a chocolate aroma, penis enlargement pdfs (or froyd books, works for both), well that's pretty obvious-and then we only lack the feeling but then you can always glue some toilet paper on your ipad and be done with it.

    I'm fairly certain this thread has moved beyond content.
    I've noticed that there's a pretty big disconnect between the general consensus of kugu and what's actually happening. It seems enough people have said it in this thread that people are taking it as fact.

    You are missing another key point - if I buy and really enjoy a physical book, I can hand it over to a friend to read also. You can't do that shit with a digital download.

    Technically, there's fuck-all they can do unless they've managed to change the first-sale doctrine (which I do believe they have after some guy sold his student version of Windows to someone else and got sued for it ... and didn't back down.)

    ebooks are fine, especially when I'm too cheap to pay for them.

    But I also like my :words: to not have a battery life, bullshit software, software bullshit, or a screen I can shatter the fuck out of.

    You can't buy a windows copy, like a copy of a book (physical). All you have is a license to use it. And it can be revoked, say if you use windows for 'terrism' activity against US.

    And remember how amazon deleted 1984?

    The kindle store allows lending books.

    To other people with Kindles presumably? Never need to worry about that with a physical book.

    So does the Barnes and Noble store.
    Of course, this requires your friend to also have a Kindle and/or Nook.
    For myself, I prefer a good old stone tablet. You just can't replace the tangibility of a nicely chiseled piece of the earth from a true craftsman-author.
