There is a book called “Tiny Habits” by BJ Fogg. He invented most of the techniques companies like Meta use to manipulate you and me.
In the book, he explains how to use the same techniques to control your own behavior.
I personally am in much better physical and mental state since I read it.
You cannot beat yourself up until you improve. It does not work. It is a myth.
I can't focus enough to read a book and of I try hard enough I fall asleep after page two. Guess it's not for me.
I did the Audible
Thanks I will try it when I can afford it. I just put it on my wishlist.
If you live in the states, Libby is a lifesaver. It's an online audiobook thing for libraries. You can use your library card to check out audiobooks through the app. And if you're unable to use Libby for some reason, I've heard mobilism has a lot of audiobooks for free
Yes. I tell anyone I can at work about the public library and how you can use Libby or Hoopla to get free books. Some audio books for those not wanting to read. It is a great asset.
Not in the States but thanks for sharing anyway, it may help others.
You are literally who internet piracy is for my friend
Go duplicate some digits

~~Yarrr, I mean really not, but it's free~~
Whoops that's just an interview with the author, though may be useful to some, I shall keep looking.
Audiobooks.com has a 30 day free trial, and this is one of the books they have, but still not good enough.....
Bookey.com also has a free trial and this audiobook. I'm failing here as a pirate. Unfortunately, I haven't pirated any audiobooks so I don't know where to look
i take it you tried the archive? There's usually a rouge upload on there somewhere, if not, some torrenting or filesharing service WILL have it, though it's less accessible to the average person.
Will give a look tonight, my laptop died but I have a rpi4 running that might be enough to sail the high seas again for this old sailor. It's been a looooong time since but I will find my path once again.
an rpi is definitely more than enough, though you might want something more than an SD card, just use a VPN and or do it anonymously and be safe out there my friend. The usual rules apply, although most of the internet is better now.
Also my instance dbzer0 has a piracy sub with a rather good resource for getting into it if you aren't immediately familiar with it. Good stuff on there for the average "just interested in how it works" individual, not looking to commit any crimes, because we are good and law abiding people, who respect the law and IP rights.
I run the pie with a Kingston 100Gig ssd with a usb adaptor.
I used to be torrenting all the time and can adapt to new software and techniques easily. I also played with tech all my life from basic electronics, computers hardware and software etc... Lately I kind of don't watch movies and have Tidal for music so I just don't use PC's much other than playing YouTube on my TV before bed.
yeah you'll be fine then. You might want to look into i2p on the side, it's rather interesting over there.
Which archive? I haven't really sailed the high seas the last decade. Most of the stuff I want is old games and I can find those easily
archive.org the only one that we all know about.
If you don't mind sailing the high seas, you can download the audiobook from https://rargb.to/ for free.
