Then don't be part of society is the root of that argument.
Don't want to be tracked? Don't use a phone. Or a car.
Don't want to support exploitative publishers? Don't read.
Can't afford rent?
Can't find a job?
It's all just blaming people for corporate bullshit.
Yes, but also have you seen some game development forums? Oof. Some people just need their gaming chair hooked up to a sun facing launchpad.
That image is very hard not to down vote.
And it's mind blowing that the two options are polling as close as they are.
It's been a while since I had the opportunity for audiobooks, so those specifically I'm a little out of the loop. Audiobookbay was a thing at some point.
For e books... Z-library and/ or Anna's archive. The reader I use is ReadEra premium, it can handle pretty much any format although default to pick is epub. I don't think you really need to buy premium, I just did because I wanted to support them. I've been using it for forever with almost no problems. You can adjust the things you want (font, spacing, light/dark, etc), but the basic format when reading is very simple once you have it set up
That is a good place to start your journey.
This was the first and the one thing they united to do everything in their power to ensure passage in 2016.
Everything else following was theater and/or smaller scale quid pro quo. Those actions still have serious consequences, especially for reproductive rights and minorities, but delivering money to the wealthy is the one true gospel.
the people of South Dakota, not the politicians in Pierre, will be the ones to decide whether to restore Roe v. Wade as the law of South Dakota
This reminds that although abortion rights are the most important result of Roe v Wade, there are other rights that were abrogated when it was overturned. It's hard to say all that was lost, and those generally won't be recovered with these efforts.
On the one hand, those are some jackasses that should be fined. On the other hand the jackass caucus is going to be forever trying to use similar measures as a tool to interfere with the democratic process.
Try something like Wyndly. Same stuff that's in the shots, just sublingual. Have to do it every day, but can do it at home.
Ok, audiobook isn't the same as an ebook.
Spotify is absolute ass for audiobooks and podcasts. I wish there was something better for streaming, although one of these days I'll get around to self hosting. Maybe after retirement...
Anyway, for audiobooks I used "Voice Audiobook Player", it's free and open source, minimal permissions required.
For anyone wondering about podcasts, "Podcast Addict". It has too many menus and options, can be confusing, but still a million times better than Spotify. Once you have it set up the way you want those options are very nice. Still confusing at times though :D
Microsoft makes its money from business and enterprise customers. Home users are a drop in the bucket.
Money from home users is from stealing data.
I'm sorry, kinda hilarious that you had to add a sarcasm tag. And sad.
