I’m not saying this isn’t useful info to share, but I’d remove it in the morning so IP snakes don’t see it and begin weaponizing the resources and sending out DMCAs.

I don’t even know if they can. But the less they know the better.

Could someone sum up why the internet achieve should survive and why people/authors are against it? Thanks! :)

Pro Tip: almost any paywall article has the full unlocked article on the Internet archive.

Edit: my point is, instead of tricking google so you rank well you should actually have a paywall. Or if you want to rank, make your content free. Specificly those site that don't need to have a paywall because the unlocked content is a grand total of 200 words.

I assume it burns up in the atmosphere (hopefully).

Who the fuck write this article

Me too, it's the only way I can see my old fansites I made back in the 90s and 00s

If this goes down I will make an effort to find a torrent and do my duty to keep the archive alive. I pray I do not need to.

There's a program called readarr, coupled with jackett and qbittorrent it will build you a library of ebooks very quickly. readarr manages the downloads, monitors your authors for new releases etc, jackett indexes the torrent sites it looks for downloads on, and qbittorrent does the actual download.

https://readarr.com/

https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett/releases

https://www.qbittorrent.org/

After installation open jackett's url to select torrent sites to index. Then open readarr's url to add those indexed sites using the torznab urls and api key jackett gives you. Then inside readarr add the qbittorrent url/username/password as download client. Then add authors you like and enjoy.

Publishers are fighting to keep their monopoly against a technology that has rendered them obsolete.

Somebody, somewhere, has made or is working on a tool to strip DRM from amazon ebooks as I type here.

Hachette and all the other Big Books companies are gonna lose in the long run, and there is nothing they can do about it.

Don't blame the users for that - Reddit decides whether you're a top comment or not, and in this case it decided yours isn't, so people can't easily see your summary.

Well…and Amazon’s hourly employees have 150% annual turnover rate.

Does it matter when you reapply after X period of time? Will your previous experience still hurt you?

What do you think should be done about Jassey?

This is like going the the Louvre and burning it down.

So it makes more earth junk

Because the robots are performing a useful and needed service, unlike the "security" snitchbots some retailers are deploying.

So the bot still died in Philly

Can you tel me a little more around how not being allowed to interview for 6 months works? Like they flag you if the interview doesn’t go very well? Unfit for one doesn’t mean the same for a different role and team so curious how that would work?

Hahaha right?

I don’t know for sure but I imagine they do to their shareholders but a headline of “Amazon doubles workforce in 2 years and then corrects by 2%” doesn’t sound like it’s gonna get clicks

This is a great point. Amazon should quantify their layoffs as a percentage.

> libraries are forced to pay high licensing fees to “rent” book

Everything is a fucking “rent” these days. Can we terminate the “landlords” yet?
