What a double edged sword. Yay on them having less of a hold on the podcast market, but also not yay because it's yet another signal of the podcast "market shift" happening.
ChatGPT is really testing my gangster. I asked one question in the last hour lol.

I've recently been buying real books again over ebooks and completely might throw in the towel on ever buying ebooks. Unless I can guarantee it's not locked into some system like Amazon. Which is nearly impossible for most books thanks to publishers and tech companies.
This is a prime example of why I actually believe in Value 4 Value with sats. I hardly ever talk about it but I think that the future of funding creators is going to be just directly sending them money for a product or service. Want their new book? Send them the minimum amount. Maybe more. Then bam you get the book. Fuck a publisher. Fuck Patreon, or any other payment platform, taking a cut.
Basically I want a world where I can send anyone, be it a writer or musician, money on a "pay what you want" basis like Bandcamp, but without the creator losing 30% to bullshit.

Mrs. Prime Ape is going back to college and the textbook situation is insane. They actually have an option to buy a 40 day limited time activated ebook copy now, which I think can only be ran through some specific software. My inner Richard Stallman grows stronger every day. Sure, it's more cost effective but my god, what have books become?
I've read so many cyberpunk books where it happens I'm shocked it hasn't already. Or if it has it hasn't gotten more coverage. Then again I'm not surprised if America doesn't want it known how bad things have gotten here.
How come America doesn't have any tin shack favelas on the outgrowth of any major city? Are our homeless just not motivated, or is it a matter of gathering resources?

How have we normalized feeding cats Goyslop Pellets made for astronauts living on the space station? Your cat wants a whole foods meat diet. Lil bit of salami as a treat? Try a raw salmon filet as a meal.
