I’m doing the foundation repeat of the bodyweight routine for the third time and still seeing some good gains. This isn’t a serious complaint or anything, just puzzling.

In the summary for the workout, I get a set count that seems off by a weird number each time. For example, I just did workout five of phase one and it tells me it’s a total of 15 sets over nine exercises, but it was actually 28.

Am I reading this wrong? Anyone else notice this?

I'm in Asia, so every game starts with spamming of a cheat site for Chinese gamers. But there is no recourse for reporting, because it's Redsec.

Someone fix this. Redsec is garbage with all this. Could be awesome.

All science fiction is fantasy. Call Foundation and Ringworld and other stuff as hard as you like, but they are as fantastic as Star Wars in every point that matters: science as we know it.

The Expanse is fantasy, 2001 is fantasy, Contact and The Martian are fantasy, Moon is fantasy, and the Silo series and Three Body Problem are too. I enjoy (many of) them immensely, but I enjoy Star Wars and Star Trek and Farscape and The Muppets in Space, too.

Every single form of fiction is fantasy to some extent - particularly stuff based on speculative ideas - and every time I read/hear about someone dismissing something as "science fantasy," it gets on my tits (which are very hairy).

Hey folks. This post is two-fold. First, I'm immensely proud that I got my first one-star review today. I feel like I've earned my first tattoo in the navy.

But that brings us to the second part. There seemed to be at least a couple of potentially valid complaints about the formatting, and I was wondering how much of an issue they are and if they are an easy fix.

I don't know how the formatting changed between when I made it and when I uploaded it to Amazon. For example, em-dashes became hyphens for some reason, and chapters weren't recorded properly, which is apparently a big no-no because the person couldn't tell how much time was left in the chapter rather than the book as a whole.

I've got dozens of short stories that form the historial foundation of the narrative universe I've built, but that have no place in the books I'm writing now.

For those who are into science fiction, you will recognize the whole Future History thing Heinlein did, but that honestly wasn't my intention. I meant to write a seven-century-long saga, but then realized the best part of it was the "modern" day part set in the 28th century, and so I started cutting all my histories.

Now I'm left with a bunch of stories and characters I love that I wrote as part of that saga that just don't fit in the narrative of the books I'm writing anymore. I was thinking about selling them on Amazon or giving t
