Are you against DRM for technical limitations or convenience? I do it for convenience and started writing down before choosing what to buy, but even some short trilogies have mixed DRM and no DRM. I mostly use Kobo for buying but I have no strings attached.

My first book was also a stitch in time and I loved it. Some years later and I'm probably around 100 books, although I still didn't buy q-squared.

There's this awesome and slightly outdated guide where it's easier for you to pick books. Or just go with your personal favourite series.

Some exceptions that never went on TV that I know are: stargazer(Picard before enterprise), Titan (Riker after enterprise) and New Frontiers( based on a whole new set of characters and by far the funniest of all I read).

Are you looking for practicing your Russian?

when discussing when China could catch up to the US in the semiconductor race.

BS. Untied states are not competitive at all for a long time. They should say China is catching up with Taiwan.

And it's not a race, there's no finish line, improvements have been happening for 50 years now and can continue for decades.

Wait what? How?

Every language has words that are almost the same sounds but not quite.

English speakers barely pronounce can and can't differently. If you're in a noisy place, or are not familiar with the accent of the speaker or got a flu and your ears are blocked or whatever else, you'll have an extra bad time telling them apart. That's normal. Just extra annoying that this particular example involves a particular meaning and the opposite of it, so context is not your friend.

HEY MATE, CAN YOU PLEASE COME TO THE PARTY?

I CA'!+-:-

OH COOL

I SAID I CA;(++;:-

OH SO YOU CAN'T? YEAH?

YEAH! THAT'S WHAT I SAID.

WELL YOUR LOSS

I SAID I WILL COME, DUDE

OH SHOOT. OK. SEE YOU THERE.

I'd be inclined to square the blame on economic and cultural imposition.

Which means that in maybe 50 years it will be like you say because of China's increasing weight on world affairs.

What do you mean personalised? Do people pay while making specific requests? Hard to believe given how much the biggest stars are getting paid.

Oh that's cool so that's where the idea for this novel came from.

Oh no Mark Ruffalo is tied up! Would he get angry enough to turn into Hulk and free himself?
