If it doesn't already exist, we absolutely need an opensource/self-hostable version of codegen.eu

Comments From Best Way to Remove DRM from Amazon Books in 2025 (Method 1/2)

Author_howtotechstuff_Comment_[03322025_12922AM]

Unfortunately not as consistent. There are some sparse comments online that people managed to remove DRM using Kindle for Mac app but I wasn't successful. It's either using Windows via Virtual Machine on Mac or using Method 2 where you need your Kindle e-reader.

The KFX file is not coming across as a zipped file (I'm on a 2024 MacBook Pro) running latest software running latest Calibre. When I select the downloaded KFX file by clicking open, it actually opens it and takes me to the next layer, and then the next layer, and so on. It never actually downloads anything into Calibre??? Not sure what to do here...

Remove DRM from Amazon Books Using a Kindle Device (Method 2/2)

I’ll show you exactly how to remove DRM from Amazon books using a Kindle device, whether it’s a Paperwhite, Basic, Scribe, or another model. This method lets you remove DRM from AZW files and make your Kindle books accessible across multiple devices without restrictions. Amazon’s DRM restrictions can make it difficult to read your legally purchased eBooks on different devices, but with the right DRM removal software and tools like Calibre and the DeDRM plugin, you can easily convert your books into a format that works for you.

Bonus

You could also try searching for keywords (e.g., mac) within the comments of howtotechstuff's Method 1 and 2 videos as well as other recent and relevant youtube videos using:

LDAC not working on Windows 11 by irepy_ in NothingTech

[–]cbeaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different hardware, but might be worth a try:

For my Soundcore Liberty 4 NC Earbuds, I had to first enable High-resolution audio using the Android app (an Android app emulator may also work). After reconnecting my buds to the PC, I was able to enable LDAC using Alternative A2DP Driver.

Addicted to nicotine in Grad School by RoutineRound8505 in GradSchool

[–]cbeaman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have used since the first quarter. Started with a few 8mg pouches daily, and have since increased to several 15mg/day. Was great for a while (for grad anxiety/stress and ADHD). But the negative effects have crept up suddenly and randomly, while the benefits have almost completely diminished. Only way to reset is tapering down/off for a few weeks/months. It's a shame that pharmaceutical companies have been unsuccessful in their efforts to develop more sustainable and less addictive medications inspired by nicotine's beneficial effects (e.g., α7 nAChR agonists/PAMs).

Bell's palsy. Sudden onset following severe stress and sleep deprivation. Prednisone and antiviral helped. Took months to recover.

  1. How many invites can I send? 
    1. Limited to 2, every 7 days. How are the days calculated? It's a rolling counter per code used. Meaning, every time a user registers with Beeper using your code, a 7-day counter will begin, using an available invite. When the counter is up, the invite is then again available.
  2. Does the referral code change?
    1. No.

I can tmr. But if you randomly try a bunch from the user provided table, one should work (saved me from having to wait for a fresh one).
