  • I don’t mind if they destroy 10k copies of Fabio’s books. It’s probably not even half of the print run so for a thing, it’s guaranteed to be no harm because there’s enough copies around.

    But when you say destroy ALL books, you’re also talking about rare first edition of whatever Shakespeare did, and manuscripts of Beethoven, and authors that I am fond of but I have no chance to buy used or new, or find in a library, because it’s not popular and/or is in a language that is not from the place I live. And that’s not cool.

    So first things first, no single entity can have access to all books. Not even reputable historians would get access to anything they just ask around. Then there’s books that have few copies and no one has any clue where they are. Etc etc.




  • That would be cool for me to look and change the data source

    Bad news is that I’m not going to use Linux on a daily basis within a week. After a streak of 8 year using daily for work, my current company is shutting down systems access to Linux and I haven’t figured out how to get browser access to these tools. Proxing is not enough, because a nasty chrome enterprise extension does all the checks in the os that runs the browser. And Wayland remote browser sucks. I’m really really really sad. 😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔
