With AfD polling at the same popularity as the SPD, that could get ugly. And everyone is still aware of the disgrace that came to light when they tried to ban the way less popular NPD. I guess some secret services would hate to lose their assets in the AfD.
I am shocked! The CIA and the FBI? The bastions of liberty and justice?
Especially if it's run by Sam Altman.
Let me throw my seedbox into the ring. :)
What a stupid move by the Russian state. If they're so convinced that Putin will remain in power, they'd hold elections. Navalny is in jail and the opposition will probably try to mount an attack, but unless their domestic security services know something they're not telling, it's quite baffling why they'd openly admit to such weakness.
I mean, they've embedded Zelensky's move to postpone elections in their own propanda.
Imperialism breeds stupidity.
You don't have to convert to mobi anymore. The Kindle backend supports epub for a couple of months already. I've also read reports that Kindle's can now convert ePub by themselves if you copy ePub files via cable but I haven't verified that myself.
Can confirm, though it's unlikely to be some piracy check. The epub just has a couple of errors that might make it difficult for Amazon's server-side epub parsing implemention:

Unfortunately I couldn't find any other epub versions. Though I just discovered the Kindle ePub fix project and converted the ePub to a fixed version using the en language tag. That seems to work because the book just showed up in my Kindle library. :)
I don't know about this take. I'm not sure how serious you are about it, but imagine a web without Javascript. Perhaps we'd all be using proprietary abominations such as Java or Flash today, not knowing what would've been possible with a more open, albeit somewhat clunky, programming language that's supported by every browser.
That's a good point and a few search queries later, you seem to be right. I'll move them outside for the remainder of the day. Thanks! <3
Can't reproduce on the most recent stable version of Brave on Android 13 (Pixel 7 Pro). Tried multiple mirrors on Anna's Archive.
Not unlikely.
