Great work! I really like the interface here, I think you put a lot of taste into the way this all came together. It's quite hard (appropriately so!) I would love to see a experienced structural biologist go at this.

Just set it to the "Efficient" tone, let's hope there's less pedantic encouragement of the projects I'm tackling, and less emoji usage.
Now I'm imagining drilling through the Earth to get the shortest possible line from Australia to my house. I like this

This is a beautiful solution to a tedious problem that shouldn't exist in the first place! Great work.

I don't suppose this is going to work well with their comics/graphic novels, will it?
I stopped buying ebooks from Amazon some time ago and switched completely to Kobo (and their much-more-easily-defeated DRM), but Amazon's acquisition of Comixology means they've still got by far the best collection of digital comics on the market.
Comics need a full "image" for the page, so this is unlikely to work. Can you inspect the requests and see what you get?
Or to the author: what happens to images in the ebook?
I see many comments that express the same level of disgust I have for modern TV's, of nearly every brand, having mutated into intrusive digital signage with integrated behavioral tracking in my home.
The question is: Would you pay $1000 to $3000 more (depending on size, etc.) for a TV with none of that. Zero.
I would.
"Good" TVs are so cheap these days, that premium wouldn't be acceptable in my mind. The fix the other posters mention about banning it from the internet and just using HDMI works well enough for me.
They got me by the balls with Kindle.
Someone(/me if I had enough time) should make some kind of LLM scraper extension for Amazon's Web Reader. Run it on your own ebooks while you're signed in and you get the EPUBs. Maybe this already exists...
I know there was some kind of cutoff earlier this year for unDRMing your Kindle books, but I definitely missed that by a mile.
Buy the ebook, then download a beautiful DRM-free and guilt-free version from Anna's Archive? win-win.
