Yes just like paying for vpn and/or seedbox to safely torrent.

Annoys me that "modern" in this case means whatever Microsoft does and whatever Microsoft users are used to. Especially since a lot of those "modern" binding have been around since the 80s.

"Modern" has become one of those words that's way over used to the point of meaninglessness.

You can't know but I really don't think this is a problem like you think it is. I can't think of what the benefit of doing this is. That said, yes an additional copy from an independent source would help. I like to listen to the audiobook while reading the text so it hits two senses. You could try that. Also, you can download from sources where people can and do give feedback.

"If he wins, I fear there will be a violent reaction around the country from the far left"

Is this the same left that routinely gets lampooned by the right for protesting in "vagina hats?"

Until I can figure out if and how to do voice cloning on my dGPU-less desktop potato, I've been using Piper to make audiobooks out of my ebooks and its been pretty good!

Thanks for predb.net and the report! Interesting stats.

I'd suggest per category rss feeds. The all-in-one feed has too much to be useful.

The idea that there'll always be someone to take on all the risk for everyone else to get shit free is kinda annoying. Especially when I see people asking how to share securely get told "if you don't know, don't do it."
