• Draft

  Because this book was published in 2007, it's likely that digitized newspapers were not as widely available as they are in 2023. Nonetheless, in the appendix it can be seen that she tables roughly 150 attacks from all types of breeds between 1864 and 1899. Roughly 10 of these attacks are attributed to bulldog-types. 10 attacks in 36 years doesn't sound that bad, right? Unfortunately, Delise is working with a... Source: about 1 year ago

• Journal of the Tantrik Order

  I was going to email this to RE but it came up with a pretty quick google search, and I thought other folks might be interested in it too. Its a copy of Vol. 5, No. 1 of the Journal of the Tantrick Order. I think this is the same one described by Robert in the latest episode. If anyone wants to look for more info, you could try searching the loc.gov website (it's down for me right now) or directly emailing a... Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Best Open E-Reader?

  Kobos[1] and Pocketbooks[2] are a lot more open than Kindles. AFAIK you can transfer .epub files into both devices and these epubs are perfectly readable via the stock OS. If for some reason you find the stock proprietary OS lacking, you can install an open source one like KOreader [3] or Plato[4] Of course you want a good way of organizing epubs pdfs mobi, and like has already been mentioned Calibre[5] is a great... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago
