Yeah, it’s been hit and miss with downloading from the Kindle. I mostly get books from the library and strip the DRM from there. I figure it’s a win-win, because the library gets a record of the checkout, but then I get to read it at my leisure while the next person gets to read it.
Ted Lasso is just Major League, but fútbol.

This currently works, but I don’t know if it will continue working forever - probably not too much longer after this announcement.
The “old Kindle PC app” might keep working in the future, but my guess is that it’s going to be done soon as well.
edit: One thing I ran into was after installing the kindle app and turning off the auto-update, it still updates. So keep the installer handy and just reinstall it as needed.
The drivers license number has information about gender and birthdate encoded into it. You can see enough of the number to know that this is someone who registered as female, and has a recorded birth date of 29 July '98. I assume this person isn’t 126 years old, so we’ll say they’re 26.
You can tell it’s an Illinois license, because no other state is as obsessed with Lincoln. (Edit: you can also read the Illinois in the seal in the back left)
Cool thing about Illinois drivers licenses is that we know OP is 26 now.
Just ask Tumblr.
They do an after purchase check on the car, and the cars sold have a post-sale warranty.
Both CarMax and Carvana offer a one week refund policy, and a post sale warranty. The warranty doesn’t cover everything, but they won’t be selling a car they expect will immediately fall apart, cause they’d have to eat that problem.
I assume if they end up with a piece of crap, they’ll sell the car to an auction or scrapyard to recoup what they can.
Almost any modern printer can print that clean now. Bambu upped the game, but everyone caught up.
After struggling to read the linked source paper, it kind of sounds like a heat battery.
You create a reversible reaction to store and release heat with electricity.
The image shows a solution being moved from a hot side to a cold side, but instead of using pressure to store and release heat, you use a chemical reaction.
Was hoping this would not require moving parts, but it might be better that it does, because you can move the heat further with high efficiency this way. Maybe even a better way to use geothermal energy to move heat.
I have a watt meter monitoring the power usage of my NAS. Out of all my checks, I assume that’s how I’m going to know I get hacked before anything else.
Yeah, this isn’t being maintained. All the ones near me are dead websites.
That’s cool and all, but you can probably run your entire PS2 library from stuff you already own.
Podcasts are RSS feeds, and those are still super popular.
Yeah, that looks amazing, and it’s really quick. That’s a huge improvement!
I do like the idea of adding the “this product replaces X, Y, or Z” in the info card without needing to click on it.
It’s a tough balance, you don’t want a whole page for each one. Maybe if there was a clear list of tags so it’s easier to understand even what category they’re talking about?
For example:
Penpot
Design freedom meets open-source collaboration
I really don’t know what this product category even is. Is it for web layout? Is it a drawing program? Is it for CAD?
Love the list, but scrolling through, the one liners don’t mean much for a lot of these.
The descriptions are just too short and vague to even understand what a lot of them actually do.
I went from a Creality printer to a Prusa Mk4s on the last black friday sale. What sold me was that as they make new machines, you can just buy a kit to upgrade to the next version, instead of needing to buy a whole new printer. They’re also based in the EU, so even if they wanted to, they couldn’t do anything too bad in regards to privacy.
Doesn’t matter tho, cause I won’t turn on the cloud printing stuff, since I don’t see any benefit. Everything can be done exactly the same way without requiring external services.
They also typo’d 16 “MB” of ram for the recommended specs for Windows.
