I liked it until about half way through, it seemed to lose all the intrigue and then there was the weird bit about rape (if I remember correctly) at which point I gave up. Shame because it started well.

Just finished Embassytown by China Mieville. Haven't read anything for ages so took the opportunity to get back into it on a lazy holiday. Highly recommend this book, or any by China, if you enjoy dense sci-fi.

Sound on sound was always well worth a read. That said, I haven't read it in about 20 years and don't know if it's even still going.

Your assessment of probability is speculation and I didn't suggest you meant "always".

That's not necessarily true, I dual boot and I've been using Linux for my main OS for about 15 years now. I rarely use mine but it is useful/needed occasionally.

Hope it fixes the 'image could not be loaded' issue.

I've been down this rabbit hole as well. They all have problems but I'm most happy with Cantata for library playing (beets for file/tag management) and deadbeef for odd local files and file conversation.

I don't understand why people do this. Surely if you lose your phone or it is stolen then you are without your phone, ID and bank card?
