Definitely worth bookmarking. Lots of arithmetic going on there. Incredibly really.
Tiny things, like tiny doorknobs, tiny stairs cases, tiny doors, tiny houses, tiny cars, and a tiny say in government legislation, etc.
And all the smoking! Eek. And we thought we had a drug problem in the USA. I've never seen so many people addicted to nicotine in my life when I've been there. It's everywhere. No thank you, I don't want to inhale nasty odor while eating my lunch. Jeez, WTF?
And those who lobby them and/or help them get reelected.
Depends on what "running the world" means. That needs clarification.
I second Octavia Butler.
On my list to read, but haven't yet, is N.K. Jemisin.
A fairly new author is Malcom Turnbull. He was on a radio interview a while back and the book (The Lesson) sounded interesting so I gor it and read it.
A lot of the sci-fi books I've been reading lately have black [main] characters. I don't know if those authors are black though. I have to look into it.
MiX file explorer for android does this. It's free. Not sure if it's open source though, does anyone know?
It does use open source libraries.
Latest version is 6.64.3 beta.

Be excellent to each other!
Watched all the Expanse series and started reading the Expanse books. I'm now on book 4 (Cibola Burn). When I watched the series, I really could figure out or understand what was going on. I just kept watching due to the charismatic enthusiasm of the fans online. I finished the TV series but still didn't quite "get it" and still felt lost. But now that I'm reading the books, I now understand what's happening and am enjoying it.
Saw it today. It could have been so much more. Lots of inconsistencies regarding what the child can do.
Pretty much a blow everything up, action, special effects type of movie. Story was okay. Somewhat original. A few emotional manipulation tricks towards the end.
I'd give it a B-.
Update: wanted to add the cinematography was really good. Very inspiring scenery. That was the best part. The child actor was very good too. Those were the best parts of the movie. The US Army General was one dimensional, shallow, and just a bad stereotype. Very poorly done. That was the stupidest/worse parts of the movie.
