It's a scifi/fantasy short story that was part of a collection of scifi short stories.

A witch is killed (I think betrayed by someone she knew?) in "medieval" times and her soul is somehow trapped (in an artifact?).

She is then summoned into a new body a number of times across a span of 100s/1000s of years by people who want to make use of her powers, but she refuses to work with them. Eventually in the far future people figure out how to summon souls into constructs instead of other people's bodies and she is summoned into one and allowed to permanently live it in (in some kind of university/research place?). She eventually burns this construct body (and the whole place?).

The book ends

I'm thinking about upgrading to an induction cooktop and wondering if anyone who has one could weigh in on particular features I should be looking out for, either because they're great, or terrible ones I should avoid.

Also from reading around it seems likely I might need some new wiring put in to support the power draw, the switchboard is quite close to the kitchen but looks like the stove breaker is only 12amp. Anyone got experience with cost/hassle of getting that done?

I've done a search and seen there's been a little discussion on induction cooktops previously but not that much :)

There's a fundraiser to secure the release of a Freakboy prototype ROM https://gf.me/u/x9uxnz The guy behind it has released protos in the past so I'd say it's legit. More info here https://www.obscuregamers.com/threads/fundraiser-freak-boy-for-n64.2451/#post-15385

It would be really cool to see thing finally released.

Has anyone seen the red variety of Kiwiberry for sale anywhere? I've been growing some of the green ones from seed and would love to grow some red ones as well, but I only ever see the green ones for sale in shops. I'd be willing to pay someone to post me some if they can get a hold of them, or if someone has seen them for sale somewhere in chch?

I'm interested in trying out some Joylent, but there's a flat shipping fee of €30, so the bigger the order the better the price per unit. An order of about 25 bags (1 bag = 1 days worth) would fall under the customs limit, but is more than I want for myself initially. Anyone keen to split an order for some? Would be about $10.5 per bag.

I'm aware of Sipreme, but joylent is about 30% cheaper even with the shipping, so I'd like to try it out.
