I had no idea Apple hated libraries this much! I stopped all my streaming subscriptions, got an external DVD drive, and exclusively watch audio described movies from the library via DVDs because they have the AD track on them. This will prevent libraries from getting it. ‘Killers of the Flower Moon' Not Getting Physical Media Release — World of Reel https://www.worldofreel.com/blog/2024/4/13/killers-of-the-flower-moon-not-getting-physical-media-release #Library #Libraries


Go visit your local #library. You don't even have to read-- you can hang out and work, play video games, print stuff, etc. #Libraries are amazing.


This toot is a friendly reminder that if and when you hit a paywall on the internet, check your local library to see if they have access to this resource. Your #library card entitles you to access to more than just books! (Am I subtooting the link below to the Boston Globe? Yes. Yes I am.)

Don’t have a library card? Get one! For most systems all you need is a piece of mail with your mailing address on it - even if it’s just a postcard from a friend. And it’s ✨ free! ✨


The Sakya Monastery in tibet has a library comprising some 84,000 books. Most are Buddhist scriptures, but there are works of literature, history, philosophy, astronomy, mathematics, agriculture, and art. They date back centuries.

In 2011 they began to digitize the library. All books are indexed and about 20% have been fully digitized.

Here's one of, if not *the* most #accessible #drum #library for #Kontakt from a #blind #producer point of view. Using #KompleteKontrol (or Kontakt directly if preferred), every aspect of the kit is usable, from kit-piece selection, to all the microphone adjustments you could wish to make.

A man named Bruno Schröder was a mining engineer for most of his life. When passed away in his 80s in June 2022, he had around 60,000 or so books spread out on the 4 floors of his house in Mettingen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The books likely weigh about the same as 15 modern cars. 📚
