Does anyone knows of a way that I can "jailbreak" Kindle so that I can print my ebooks?

I got some severe ADHD, and while reading a lot helps, whenever I go near a tablet I can't absorb anything of what I read.

(Printing from my home printer, for personal use, not piracy)

Which is your favorite and least favorite of the old immortal important classics and why? Mine is Paradise Lost because it's basically the only one wherein the poetic beauty isn't lost in translation. Pic related is the objectively worst

I've tried so many times to enjoy Pride & Prejudice and I just can't. I see the value in it, I understand the themes and concepts, it's just unimaginably dull and is longer than it ever needed to be.

Fuck off.

Eftsoons they heard a most melodious sound,
Of all that mote delight a dantie eare,
Such as attonce might not on liuing ground,
Saue in this Paradise, be heard elsewhere:
Right hard it was, for wight, which did it heare,
To read, what manner musicke that mote bee:
For all that pleasing is to liuing eare,
Was there consorted in one harmonee,
Birdes, voyces, instruments, windes, waters, all agree.

The joyous birdes, shrouded in chearefull shade
Their notes unto the voice attempred sweet;
Th’ Angelicall soft trembling voyces made
To th’ instruments divine respondence meet;
The silver sounding instruments did meet
With the base murmure of the waters fall;
The waters fall with difference discreet,
Now soft, now loud, unto the wind did call;
The gentle warbling wind low answerèd to all.

A book you can't understand without Greeks, Scholastics, Rationalists, German Idealists, and Husserl.

You could hack JSTOR like that kid who killed himself

EBSCO

No academic database is free. You might be able to access it through your public library's website for free though.

JSTOR is another option, but it's not that great.

MLA has a database too. I haven't used it in a while, but I remember it being good.

Maybe not cry, but at least think it's pleasant and good:
The sound of waves.

Has anyone here ever read an H.P Lovecraft novel, if so, which one is your favorite?, personally, my favorite is Call of Cthulhu, although it is his most well known, it has a special place in my heart because it actually made me ponder my role in the greater cosmos

He only wrote one novel: The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, though I suppose you could bend the definition and include his five novellas: The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath, At the Mountains of Madness, The Whisperer in Darkness, The Shadow Over Innsmouth, & The Shadow Out of Time. I've read all his stories, and Mountains is my favorite from that list.

What is it that you don't get? Be specific.

Moreover, why are you bothering with Aristotelian Logic and not go straight into First-Order Quantificational Logic?

It wouldn't be so bad if I actually had a place to read in my house. I can only read for about an hour each night while in bed. And I'm a slow reader so it takes me about a week to get through a 280 page book.

I want to read Mein Kampf to have a look into the mind of Hitler but (You) can't get a physical copy at libraries without a special permit or something and I'm scared of downloading a digital copy bc I fear the FBI or CIA track anyone who downloads the book. What do?

Just download it, guy. The FBI/CIA have more than enough information on you as it is, a measly download of Mein Kampf will be negligible.

What the hell? You can get it in any library and most big book stores
