inZOI is probably the only real competition left that is worth rooting for. But then again, it's Korean and likely always online, so imagine to be charged hand over fist.

If you don't enjoy doing your hobby unless you're producing something of substance that can help you receive praise from others. Is it really a hobby you do for the sake of personal enjoyment and growth or just something you think society views as a worthwhile past time you've latched onto just to get validation?

Drag the war long enough and those children will grow up to be next in line as cannon fodder and the issue will solve itself.

Most of these countries pretend that they were the ones that helped the South Africans fight against apartheid from behind the scenes. These same countries also adhere to the opinion that Israel isn't an apartheid state. So are we really surprised that they defend the genocide that is going on?

WeChat reader 微信读书, only issue is that if you upload a book they will read everything. So get used to suddenly a page number being read out loud.

Maybe you could get a paid version of ChatGPT and remove all numbers and annotations.

Unless it has improved in the last 5 months, I'm passing. Somehow can't concentrate on their TTS. Might have to do with the stuff I want it to read.

Thanks for the tip though

Going by their pricing model I'd have to pay $330 at mininum going by my listening habits... What the.

$22 a month for 2 hours. That's crazy! It'd be cheaper for me to hire an actual person with these prices. I was thinking of like $10 a book. They're asking at least ten-fold...

Wish I could use this technology for myself to listen to non-fiction books. Even if it costs $10 I'd still feel it'd be worth it.
