found this great bookmarklet for downloading DRM’d books from the internet archive in high quality. did not work in edge, but worked great in chrome!
I like the project but I dislike the author calling it a autistic project.
Not every project striving to solve a simple problem is autism. Everyone has projects and normal people also get caught in the flow to solve a problem they are having.
It is important to note that before the event of tiktok and before everyone and their peers sef-diagnosed as autistic, the term was already used semi-ironically for comedic effect on less sensible internet forums when describing any nerdy behavior, as it is in this context.
You may still deplore the use of a
diseaseslight divergence from the societally accepted set of behaviors as a comically charged descriptor, but make sure you don’t interpret is as a serious commentary on the nature of the project, for that would be in error.Autism (spectrum disorder) isn’t a disease 😠

As you probably noticed, English is not my first language, I apologize for the use of the word disease instead of the appropriate description of what autism is, I have edited my comment to better reflect what your stuck-up puritan ass would prefer to read.
Hi, non “stuck up puritan ass” here.
It’s not a disease, it’s a disorder. They are 2 objectively different things and it’s important to distinguish between the 2, you overly hostile ass
