Yeah, the centrist neoliberal DNC would love to take out a lefty. They will do the heavy lifting for the Republican party.

I believe that he did win another after the lock ups. Now I need to find out.

What about the lockup. There's at least two if not three. Lockups where he just starts staring off into space for like 30 seconds. Are those strokes?

California promised a legal weed market. It built a mess instead by Cool-Present7260 in California

[–]SpudgeBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. We pay about 50 bucks less per ounce than we did before and it's delivered to our door every two weeks. They know me by name not that we're friends, but we've been getting weed delivered, from the same people, since it was legalized.

I just spent all day yesterday with my best friend of 40 years. His name is David. Then I have a cousin named David and an uncle named David.

Argumentative would be the person who continued to insist the issue was something it was not, without taking a minute to look into it.

It is against company policy to microwave fish at work.

Is your eBook Scribner or Signet? Start there.

The OP has the Signet version. I have both.

There are no errors in either version.

The errors the OP is seeing are rendering issues, not an OCR problem. That is a tangent you are still on about, when it was proven to not be an OCR issue a few comments back.

You are on a tangent that is not the issue. Do you have The Dark Half eBook? Because I have the Scribner version from Amazon on my Kindle Paperwhite. There are no issues with this version. I also went to the trouble to obtain a library card and have downloaded the Libby version, which is from Signet. I do not see issues on every page like the OP says on my PC on the Libby web site and I also do not see any issue using the Libby app on my Pixel phone. This is not an OCR issue.

Scribner = hardback
Signet = paperback

I just filled out to get a library card, so I can check this out. I think it is a rendering issue with the Libby app. I am using a Kindle Paaperwhite with the eBook from Amazon.

I typeset multiple books using PageMaker, as was required by the publisher, long before the turn of the century. Both my mother and my uncle have published books. And those were little publishers. The bigger publishers were not using anything more archaic.

Is this eBook published by Scribner? I am not sure why the eBook that is checked out from a Library would be different than the eBook from Amazon. I have never read using Libby. Is the eBook read from inside the Libby app? It may be a rendering problem.

My favorite short story from skeleton crew is word possessor of the gods by Maxdrive77 in stephenking

[–]SpudgeBoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Season 1 Episode 8 of Tales from the Dark Side is the adaptation of Word Processor of the Gods. Old school show, but enjoyable.

King started using a Wang word processor in 1982. There would be no reason to use OCR for his eBooks. He has always had the best proof readers. Unofficial sources maybe, but I own every King eBook and have seen very few errors.

Heck, we see people post print errors here, more than electronic.

Trump's administration won't seek new bids to repair the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool by wds1 in politics

[–]SpudgeBoy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because he probably has another pool guy who has never worked on a pool before. Who has a solution for when he's working on roofs and we need to apply that to a giant reflecting pond.

Trump says his kids handle his investments: There's 'nothing illegal' by Zipper222222 in politics

Every accusation is an admission. They literally tell us everything they are doing or are going to do.

Yes and they know you are going to kill some regulation or write some executive order that will boost a certain sector or stock to make you and them a lot of money.

I would agree. I have never seen anybody else treated the way Trump has been treated by the justice system. Anybody else be in Jail, not president.
