  • Adam Smith does pretty well. I'd say it's Marxism, mushroom guides, and beekeeping that remain consistently at the top of the rankings. Then you've got whatever fiction is currently hot. For a while there it was Where the Crawdads Sing or Demon Copperhead. Sarah J. Maas is currently enjoying an extended streak of very strong sales. The Twilight series went through a bit of a low ebb for a while there but for some reason it's been selling quite well again lately. Harry Potter used to be a rock solid seller, but one can see that J. K.'s attempts to alienate her fan base have been at least partially successful. It's interesting to see the trends develop over time.

  • I work at a used book store. Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto is a great seller, one of the best selling titles we ever get in, in fact. As a result, we keep raising the resale price on the thing each time a new one comes in, and it keeps selling. I've never had to mark down a Communist Manifesto for sitting on the shelf for too long. It's a textbook example of supply and demand in action... and I think that Karl would kind of hate that.

  • I got some of these that clip on to my glasses for miniature painting, and they were very nice for being able to flip on and off as needed. Looks like these come in different magnification powers, which sounds handy, depending on one's needs.

  • I love the idea that someone was working on a Luigi's Haunted Mansion sequel when they saw the search metrics on "Luigi" go absolutely nuts and when they found out why were like "Oh... oh nooooo..."

  • I've got a 353p and I love the form factor, but I'd like to use it more as a console attached to the TV. The default OS keeps forgetting the mapping on the Bluetooth controllers I've got, though, so I need to remap them for every game. Have you got a recommendation for a better setup, such that I could leave the thing plugged into the TV and not have to manually reconfigure it every time I start a new game?
