I use Voice audiobook player, that can do that, too. But when I switch devices, … it’s easier to pick up where I left, if it’s at least separated by chapters (or as some MP3 CDs do every 3-5 minutes a new track).

Also I do sometimes buy mp3 audiobooks for a blind friend who prefers to listen to them on a CD player (buttons can be felt and its easier to use than a touch screen). But a single, several hours long mp3 is bad in this scenario. And as i didnt find a tool to split them easily, Audible exclusives were out of the question…

Have you found a way to split those mp3s into several files by chapter etc.? All converters that I have tried so far just yield a single, several hours long mp3…

Das ist wie bei der Homöopathie - die Erstverschlimmerung, das muss so. Du musst weiter AfD wählen, damit es hilft.

Ah, another of these articles…

Let’s just quote the last part of Troy Hunt’s (the guy running Have I Been Pwned?) Twitter Thread regarding this breach

This reporting is just getting stupid: “Big brands caught in ‘mother of all breaches’”. These are breaches that date back as far as more than a decade (Adobe), and they’re now in a news headline despite them already being so broadly distributed.

I don’t mind it with SaaS. Also for enterprise software, you used to pay for the license and then a support package, which basically is a subscription, on top. So there’s nothing changing per se.

Problem for partners is, that they don’t know whether they’ll stay partners and whether they’ll be accepted in the new program. If not, they cannot provide their SaaS solution to their customers.

Imagine your company gets a letter from its MSP that basically reads: “Hey, VMWare doesn’t give us information about our way forward, we may be unable to continue to provide you with VMs. This happens to all partners, so no need to ask other MSPs, as those will tell you the same. We currently don’t know how to proceed, but in three months all VMs that you have hosted with us might be toast and the only people who can tell you what to do are at broadcom and don’t give out any information”

From what I gathered from news articles it looks like they want more control over how and where you host and will be moving everything to subscription based licenses. So it somewhat makes sense to stop handing out the current licenses and offer new ones. Problem is that it doesn’t seem to be clear which licenses you can get, which conditions apply to those, where and when you can get them,…

I think it would have been mostly fine if they had allowed for more ti.e to transition and had everything in place for the future. Then add some communication and there might have been a shitstorm, but not the mess that happened now…
