#ebooks — Public Fediverse posts

I accepted a firmware update for my #Kobo reading tablet the other day. Now it's glacially slow. It takes minutes to turn a page. Anybody else seeing this?

UPDATE: I synched the machine and got the same offer of an update again. Apparently the former install didn't finish correctly. So I re-ran the thing and now it works OK.

*Die rasante Ausbreitung illegaler KI-generierter Hörbücher auf YouTube*
Die Debatte um Copyright-Verletzungen im Internet verschiebt sich zunehmend auf Hörbücher. Statt Filme oder Musik sind es jetzt vor allem audiovisuell reproduzierte Werke, die durch Künstliche Intelligenz schnell und massenhaft vervielfältigt werden.

Mein neues Spielzeug: ein wirklich handlicher, minimalistischer E-Reader, der XTEINK K4. Kann zwar nur wenig, aber sieht dabei verdammt gut aus. Und ist dabei kleiner als ein Reclam-Heft.
Wer das Buch erkennt, bekommt Extrapunkte.

All her life, orphaned Wren hoped for an adventure. With, say, a kidnapped princess, a handsome prince, and a magician.

Turns out the princess was hiding at an orphanage, the prince is a youngest son, and the magician is. . . "new."

This isn't your average fairy tale!

WREN TO THE RESCUE by Sherwood Smith is the first of Wren's tales.

So because I taught myself a few decades ago to code #HTML, and because I moved that to learning how to code #EPUB #eBooks, I'm now re-authoring #NormanSolomon's book "The Blue Road to Trump Hell" into an ePub that isn't the terrible BrundleFly that InDesign produced which the publisher is currently offering free.

I'll send it to the publisher as a gift.

Für den nächsten #DIDay wollte ich mich vorbereiten und habe ein Thalia-Konto angelegt. In Zukunft möchte ich meine #eBooks dort kaufen, statt bei Amazon oder Apple. Dafür bin ich bereit, meine Daten schon wieder bei jemandem zu lassen, obwohl die Datenschutzangaben im AppStore ein No Go sein sollten. Lesen will ich vorerst auf dem iPad, vielleicht generiere ich aber auch eines Tages Umsatz mit einem #Tolino. (2/9)

Looking for documentation on how the book status (or reading status) feature works in #KOReader -- it's unclear to me whether there's any automation to it and what the criteria are for the "abandoned" status, and I'm also unable to change the book status in my Koreader app on Android (tapping any status options brings up a review dialogue but won't change the book's status). Official Koreader docs don't seem to mention the feature at all. Hints appreciated!
