    Not my album of the year, but very fun and decent. Excited for more.

    Looks like I'm very alone in this, but shit yes, my music choice is leaning heavily to lyricism. I do like poetry, but I am quite specific what poetry. A lot of famous stuff is too complex for me....

    I do like poetry, but I am quite specific what poetry. A lot of famous stuff is too complex for me. I do like reading a lot, which might relate.

    Oblivion is worth your time, albeit old, if you want to experience more lore etc.

    Decent earbuds will be fine! :-) enjoy the rest of the experience. The game play isn't the most incredible (imo) but the way they lead you through the story kept me super engaged. :)

    Imagine a hard drive as a room, and your filesystem as a long hallway with lots of doors that lead to no where. "mounting" is simply picking up a room, and adding it to a door that you can specify. Now you can walk through the door to get in to the room.

    Now, imagine you have mounted one room, but then mount another room on to the same door. The new room will be behind the door, the other room will also still be there, but you can't get through it, as the space is occupied by the last mounted room.

    Obligatory disclaimer that I don't actually know that much about these things, anyone with more knowledge please feel free to chime in.
