Relaxed, literary-focused science fiction convention in Mariehamn

Päivän huono uutinen e-kirjojen ystävälle: Elisa kirja lopettaa (yhdistyy Bookbeatiin). Kirjakauppa suljetaan ja jatkossa on ilmeisesti tarjolla vain lukuaikapalvelua, ja käyttö vain Bookbeatin omalla sovelluksella. Jatkossa kirjojen ostaminen, lataaminen tai lukeminen lukulaitteella ei siis onnistu. (Elisa Kirjan asiakkailla on elokuuhun aikaa ladata ostamansa kirjat omalle koneelle.)

Day 2 of #åcon13 over and done with (for me). GoH Fiona Barnett is absolutely lovely, and both she and her hubby are really good sports, even when subjected to one of Jukka’s quizzes. The Pommern tour was interesting (if somewhat windy). Looking forward to seeing the results of Henry’s photo shoot.

Thought I’d watch a thing on Prime. It tells me I don’t have a subscription. The F*** I don’t. I contact customer support. They tell me my account was deactiveted due to inactivity. Well ok, it WAS two whole days since I last watched something. Good news! They cannot restore the subscription, but I can subscribe again! Only the price is now higher than the one I had. Sorry about that. Nothing they can do. Well‚ I guess I had one too many streaming subscription anyway. Bye, #AmazonPrimeVideo

New #meetup I stumbled on by accident: Turku Fantasy Book Club. First meeting is next month. From the group description: “Twice every month (once in the middle and once at the end of the month) we will meet and discuss the book of the month. We’ll discuss our favourite quotes, likes, dislikes, and the sort. So come along, join, and let’s achieve our reading goals for this year in a more social and fun manner!” https://www.meetup.com/turku-book-club/
