Found my Kindle Paperhwite again. Where can i get (free/cheap) ebooks?

search for title +epub on yandex

libgen.io

Literally no cons. E-ink is the real deal

I hate those fags who say they like real books and the smell of old paper. Seriously these are the people that hold back societies. I mean what did they think when went to a book store in the real world and bought a $39.99 hard cover book or waited 9 months and bought the $27.99 paperback version. They were dark times.

good answer, faith restored

You are right my bro. The kindle it's something else but somehow has not lived to the expectations. I mean, global access to quality knowledge at the hands of anyone, even if you are poor. I don't get how this shit didn't generate a global revolution.

Sounds awfully similar to crypto lmao

>Amazon created a nice Kindle with the Paperwhite technology
So if I am to get a kindle, paperwhite is where it's at? You get a headache form the other types?

reasons i don't use a kindle:
>worse attention span, significantly lower retention
10+ years browsing a screen on which most content is redundant/fluff -> skimming is normal. whereas physical books i am highly selective on what i read. might be able to rewire that, if necessary
>lack of confidence texts can't be edited/deleted
if you don't own the physical copy (preferably printed prior to the 1950s), you can't be sure of its veracity and that it won't be (((corrected))) or removed from your device by remote editors

you have to be a fucktard tech illiterate to not know how to put a pdf in your phone

libgen is unironically the best site on the net, ever

whoever made it should be rewarded

First one is retarded but you are right about the second, never thought about that

>retarded
search for 'screen vs paper' or 'deep reading' - as i say, it might just be a function of habit rather than an inherent weakness of the medium, but it's a widely recognized phenomenon

Most based books to read off libgen:

The Sovereign Individual
>written in 1997 pre-dotcom bubble, predicted crypto pretty much exactly
The Bitcoin Standard
>nice critique of money, kikes, absolute state of civlization, hates on Keynes a lot and goes into Bitcoin technical stuff
Digital Gold: Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money
>really goes deep into the early days of crypto, cypherpunk mailing list, Satoshi posts, early crypto names you have heard before. Really good history from 1990s up to around 2014. Pre-golden bullrun. Goes into Silk Road, Roger Verr, Mt.Gox, pre-Bitcoin failures like digicash etc. Hal Finney, Shrem - really great all round book I finished it fast

This I sold my paperwhite because A the phone app looks nicer and B its battery was getting bad and only lasting 1 week

I know, but the books about the subject seem to conclude that is just basic neuroplasticity that can be retrained with ease. Not a real problem, just turn on airplane mode and get the basic kindle

>I don't get how this shit didn't generate a global revolution.
This is so true. It reminds me of all those future sci-fi stories where the people are just so dumb, like they never even read their version of wikipedia. Then the rich or upper class have access to all those awesome stuff. We are heading to this, but it will be even more ridiculous when you can print out stuff at ridiculous low cost.

Generally has some book threads up
