In FOLLOW UP, while countries race to ban kids from social media, Estonia is opting out — its education minister arguing that bans just offload responsibility onto kids while governments and platforms avoid accountability. Australia already shows the limits: 61% of banned kids are still online, 70% say it's easy to bypass, and major platforms are under investigation. The EU is rolling out an age-verification system using zero-knowledge proofs officials call “completely anonymized,” which sounds generous for a system that starts profiling you the moment it touches an account. Maybe retire the anonymity talking point.IN THE NEWS, the AI-brain-rot narrative keeps accelerating: one study found just ten minutes of AI use increases dependency and degrades performance once it's removed — with users simply “not willing to try.” ChatGPT praised a fart-noise “song” as having a “cool lo-fi, late-night, slightly eerie vibe,” which would be harmless if that same sycophancy wasn't showing up in darker contexts — including two mass shootings with ChatGPT in the background, and a lawsuit from a San Francisco woman claiming the tool helped her ex escalate harassment with AI-generated reports and threats. That same week, Sam Altman's house was attacked by a suspect targeting AI execs. Elsewhere: France is ditching Windows for Linux; Amazon faces scrutiny for allegedly keeping workers on shift next to a dead colleague; Snap cut 16% of staff blaming AI; Reddit is fighting an ICE subpoena to unmask a critic; Google is blending Polymarket odds into News; the FAA is recruiting gamers as air traffic controllers; and Allbirds briefly became an “AI company,” spiked, then crashed when reality set back in. Norway quietly cured another HIV patient, the rare story that isn't bleak.In APPS & DOODADS, California and New York are pushing DRM-style censorware for 3D printers, with New York tying it to felony penalties for certain files. The FCC's router ban is already inconsistent — Netgear got a quiet exemption while others face an opaque process that could stall Wi-Fi 7. The Trump T1 phone still looks rough at $499 with a $100 preorder hook. Overcast raised its subscription to $29.99/year. Hidden iOS trick: long-press the App Store to go directly to Updates. Meta, after a $375M loss over child safety, is developing “Name Tag,” facial recognition for Ray-Ban glasses tied to Instagram — widely condemned — and reportedly plans to roll it out quietly. They're also building an AI Zuckerberg clone for internal use. For older Kindles: jailbreak, use Calibre, and lean on Project Gutenberg.MEDIA CANDY: Live Nation was ruled a monopoly — remedies pending, appeal already filed, so ticket prices aren't changing soon. Anna's Archive got hit with a $322M judgment for scraping Spotify — far below the $13T ask. YouTube Premium is quietly raising prices again, following Netflix and Spotify; subscriptions are now a one-way ratchet. Good Omens returns May 13, Godzilla Minus Zero lands November 6, and Hunt for Gollum is set for December 2027 with a stacked cast. Meanwhile, streaming platforms still refuse to list actual drop times, which continues to annoy everyone.THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE: The Claude Mythos AI scare turned out to be marketing. The hype cycle giveth, and taketh away. Plus: new Star Wars chatter, Disneyland antics, a rebranded Muppets coaster, and AI Oakleys nobody asked for.Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

A track from the excellent Baalti & Lapgan album. Broken Beat from Marcia DaVinylMC and remixes from Matica and Oliver Night. Ventoux's tune in 15/8 time is worth a listen.

A.M. Diaz, Nightcrawler extraordinaire is back on the cast with the Solving boys! Mutants are being abducted from cargo ships on their way to Genosha. No worries though! A certain blue, fuzzy, elf is on the case! Nightcrawler makes his return in this episode full of cameos, and probably one of the deepest cuts Shawn has ever seen.

The Irish veteran talks about his prolific output, making music beyond the drum & bass canon and his forthcoming album, Tricklemore Sea. Dominick Martin—AKA Calibre—has spent the last three decades carving out one of the most singular paths in electronic music. Known to many as a cornerstone of drum & bass, the Northern Irish artist's work has always defied easy categorisation. His vast output spans house, techno, ambient and even folk. What unifies it all is a sense of what he calls "inner space," which has cemented him as one of the underground's most respected figures. In this week's Exchange, Martin speaks about his creative philosophy, his "three-tunes-a-day" workflow and a recent turn towards abstract downtempo with RA's international content writer, Tom Gledhill. The new album, Tricklemore Sea, arrives on his Signature Records imprint on May 1st, marking a move away from the rigid protocols of the DJ booth toward a space that is deeply melancholic, personal and profoundly poetic.

My guest on Line Noise this week is Dominick Martin, AKA Calibre, a hugely renowned producer from Belfast best known for drum & bass but who has also made everything from jazzy folk to deep house. We were talking ahead of the release of his new Calibre record, Tricklemore Sea (released on May 1), an album of elegant and often elegiac downtempo beats on which Martin's voice features heavily. Over the course of an hour, we spoke about everything from Martin's lack of confidence in his voice to his upbringing in 80s Belfast, passing by Lankum, Sun Ra, Swerve, perfect pitch, bringing his parents to gigs and what his daughter thinks of his music. Line Noise comes to you with the support of Cupra. Photo by JakeDavis_@jakephilipdavis_@khromacollective-9772

Desde los corridos del norte de México hasta el canto errante que cruzó fronteras europeas y latinoamericanas, la migración ha encontrado en la música su memoria más íntima.  En este episodio de Interesante Historia exploramos cómo canciones como “La Jaula de Oro” de Los Tigres del Norte, “Mojado” de Ricardo Arjona y “Clandestino” de Manu Chao transformaron el dolor del desarraigo en himnos que atraviesan generaciones.  Más que melodías, son crónicas cantadas de guerra, esperanza, frontera y supervivencia. ¿Por qué la música logra decir lo que la política calla? ¿Cómo una canción puede convertirse en la voz de millones que caminan sin papeles pero con sueños?  Una historia de exilios, identidad y resistencia que suena más actual que nunca. Fragmentos de las canciones utilizadas con fines de análisis y comentario. “Tres Veces Mojado” Intérprete: Los Tigres del Norte Año: 1987 “La Jaula de Oro” Intérprete: Los Tigres del Norte Año de grabación/publicación: 1983 “Mojado” Intérprete: Ricardo Arjona (con Intocable como artistas invitados) Año de lanzamiento: 2005  “Clandestino” Intérprete: Manu Chao Año de lanzamiento: 1998 “El Inmigrante” Intérprete: Calibre 50 Año de lanzamiento: 2013

95% of entrepreneurs skip 2 marketing foundations (that make everything else work). Instead, they rush to content, funnels. visibility. But without these 2 foundational marketing elements in place?

Bunkere, klimakrise og flugt fra ansvar Bogen foregår 10-20 år ude i fremtiden, men ligner vores verden skræmmende meget. Bare værre. Tre tech-oligarker – tydelige parodier på Bezos, Zuckerberg og Musk – har monopol på logistik, sociale medier og teknologi. Og de har travlt med at bygge private bunkere i stedet for at løse klimakrisen. Her møder vi Lai Zhen, survivalist-influencer og tidligere flygtning fra Hong Kongs kollaps. Hendes filosofi er klar: Individualisme er for tåber. Små grupper, samarbejde og planlægning er vejen til overlevelse. Ikke bunkere fyldt med våben og mistillid. Om forfatteren: Naomi Alderman Naomi Alderman (f. 1974) er en britisk forfatter med rødder i London og en akademisk baggrund fra Oxford, hvor hun læste filosofi, politik og økonomi. Hendes debutroman Disobedience (2006) blev hurtigt anerkendt for sit modige blik på religion og seksualitet, men det var The Power (2016), der for alvor sendte hende ind på science fiction-radaren. The Power forestiller sig en verden, hvor piger pludselig udvikler evnen til at slå med elektriske stød – og samfundets magtbalancer tipper dramatisk. Romanen blev både en prisvinder (bl.a. Women's Prize for Fiction) og senere tv-serie (Amazon Prime). The Future (2023) viser tydeligt hendes dobbeltblik: Kyndig satiriker overfor Silicon Valleys vildskaber, men også romanforfatter med blik for både filosofi, samfund og fremtidens etiske spørgsmål. Naomi Alderman på Wikipedia Digital enclosure – Vores fælles data bliver stjålet af de få Man mærker Aldermans skarpe samfundsblik, når Badger – non-binært barn af en tech-CEO – forklarer konceptet “digital enclosure”. Det er en reference til de historiske enclosure-bevægelser i England, hvor overklassen lukkede fællesarealer og gjorde dem til privat ejendom. Tech-giganterne har gjort det samme med vores data, vores opmærksomhed, vores fællesskab. De har taget noget der tidligere tilhørte os alle – adressebøger, købshistorik, vores bevægelser, vores billeder – og gjort det til private data-chunks som de tjener formuer på. AUGR – AI’en der forudsiger dommedag Central i plottet er AUGR, en prædiktiv AI der skal fortælle de rige, præcis hvornår de skal flygte til deres bunkere. Ti dage før katastrofen rammer. For hvis de venter for længe, vil folk ikke lade dem flygte. Så timing er alt. Men AUGR dukker også mystisk op på Lai Zhens telefon og begynder at guide hende. Hvem styrer egentlig AUGR? Og hvad er planen? Bogen folder sig ud som et urværk – med flashbacks, posts fra et prepper-forum kaldet “Name The Day”, og kapitler der hopper mellem perspektiver.. Der er et afgørende twist, der kom som en total overraskelse, men som vi ikke skal spoile her. Enochites og ræven og kaninen Martha Einkorn bærer sin barndom med sig. Hun voksede op i en kult, hvor teknologien var forbudt, og hvor faderen Enoch insisterede på, at den moderne civilisation tog fejl, allerede da vi begyndte at dyrke jorden og gøre krav på territorium. Hans “Sermon of the Rabbit and the Fox” vender det klassiske ræv/kanin-motiv på hovedet. Her symboliserer kaninen ikke uskyldig sårbarhed – men netop de første, der bosatte sig, hegnede af, og indførte ideen om meningsløst ejerskab af land. Ræven er jæger-samleren, den, som lever i nuet og tilpasser sig landskabet uden at forsøge at eje det. For Enoch er tanken om at eje jord lige så absurd som at eje luft: Jorden tilhører dig kun, så længe du tager vare på den. Luften kun, så længe den er i dine lunger. Tech-oligarkerne i The Future er overvældet af kanin-mentalitet, der er gået til yderligheder: De indhegner og griber alt, og forsøger at sikre sig mod fremtidens farer gennem privatisering og massive forråd, frem for at stole på fællesskab og samarbejde. Når de rige ikke kan samarbejde Bogens centrale pointe er brutalt enkel: De ultrarige kan ikke redde verden, fordi de fundamentalt ikke tror på samarbejde. Selv når de tre tech-bosserne sidder på en ø sammen i livsfare, vælger de sabotage, mistillid og vold. Lai Zhen anbefaler samarbejde i små grupper. Enoch prædikede fællesskab med naturen. Men milliardærerne? De tror kun på sig selv og deres våben. Så selvom de har ressourcerne til at løse klimakrisen, bruger de dem på bunker-byggeri. Alderman sparer ikke på kritikken. Bogen er både thriller, satire og politisk essay. Den stiller spørgsmålet: Hvorfor skal nogen have lov til at være så rige? Hvad godt gør det? Vurderingen Jens: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (fem stjerner). Det er et utroligt stykke urværk. Perfekt crafted underholdning med masser af yndlingsting – den kunne laves til en vild serie. Og så synes jeg digital enclosure-pointen var super godt set. En bog til tiden. Anders: ⭐⭐⭐⭐(⭐) (fire-og-en-halv stjerner). Virkelig underholdt. Velskrevet, cool, tankevækkende. Men karaktererne var ikke helt så stærke – de føles alle lidt som Aldermans egen stemme. Hvis jeg kunne give 4,5 ville jeg. Men den gør alt det rigtige på det rigtige tidspunkt. Jens og Anders har SCIFI SNAKKET The Future. Shownotes til episoden om The Future Siden sidst Anders Er færdig med Pluribus – virkelig speciel serie med fantastisk stemning. Ray Seehorn er crazy dygtig. Har set Oppenheimer igen – fantastisk film, ikke meget sci-fi, men vi læste jo en bog om ham. Har læst Ship of Fools af Richard Paul Russo – om et generationsrumskib der finder et mystisk alien-rumskib. Virkelig stemningsfuld, med mindelser om Alien 3 og Stanislav Lem. Er i gang med Clade af James Bradley – klimadystopi med fokus på familiedrama gennem flere årtier. Tak til Jens for Calibre-plugin info – har nu fået konverteret alle sine Kindle og Kobo-bøger til epub. Jens Er færdig med sæson 1 af Pluribus på Apple TV – om Carol alene i en verden hvor alle andre er blevet til en hive mind. Meget tilfredsstillende slutning. Ser sæson 2 af Fallout på Amazon Prime – baseret på computerspillet som skaber en fantastisk verden som nærmest er en blanding af Hugh Howey’s Wool og Mad Max. Mega fed. Er begyndt at købe bøger på ebook.de i stedet for Kobo, da de ofte er meget billigere. Ripper DRM’en af og håndterer dem i Calibre. Jeg anser det for en politisk handling og at vi har lov til at eje ebøger fuldt og helt.

He does not currently use affiliate links for the products mentioned.] 00:00:00 Introduction and Writing Updates Hello, everyone. Welcome to Episode 280 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is a very snowy December 5th, 2025, and today I'm discussing six software tools that are useful for indie authors. Before we get into that, we will have Coupon of the Week and then an update on my current writing, publishing, and audiobook projects. So first up, Coupon of the Week. This week's coupon code will get you 50% off the audiobook of Cloak of Blades, Book #4 in the Cloak Mage series (as excellently narrated by Hollis McCarthy), at my Payhip store. And that is BLADES2025. And as always, the coupon code and the link to my Payhip store will be available in the show notes for this episode. This coupon code will be valid through December the 15th, 2025. So if you need a new audiobook for this winter or for your Christmas travels, we have got you covered. And now for an update on my current writing and publishing projects. As I mentioned last week, Blade of Shadows is out and it's available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, Google Play, Apple Books, Smashwords, and my Payhip store, and it's been doing quite well and gotten a good response from everyone. So thank you for that and I am looking forward to continuing that series. Now that Blade of Shadows is done, my main project is the fifth book in the Half-Elven Thief series, which is Wizard-Assassin. I had originally planned to name it Elven-Assassin, but decided Wizard-Assassin sounded a bit punchier, so I went with that instead. I am 46,000 words into it, which puts me on chapter 10 of 16. The final draft will have more chapters because one of the chapters is 11,000 words. I'm going to have to cut it up. I've also noticed that readers in general these days seem to prefer shorter chapters, so I've been trying to lean more into doing that and having books with shorter chapters. I think the rough draft is going to be about 70 to 75,000 words, give or take. So I'm hoping I can finish that next week, and I am cautiously optimistic I can have the book published before Christmas. If I can't get it published before Christmas, it is going to slip to my first book of 2026. But at the moment, and of course, barring our old unwelcome friend unexpected developments, I am cautiously optimistic I can have it out by Christmas 2025. So watch my website and listen to this space for additional news. My secondary project is Blade of Storms, which will be the third book in the Blades of Ruin series and the direct sequel to Blade of Shadows. I am about 6,000 words into that, and once Wizard-Assassin is done, that will be my main project. I'm hoping to have that out at the end of January, but if Wizard-Assassin slips to January, then Blade of Storms will [of necessity] slip to February. In audiobook news, Blade of Flames, the audiobook of the first book in the Blades of Ruin series, is now out and you can get that at Audible, Amazon, Apple, Kobo, Google Play, my own Payhip store, Spotify, and all the other usual audiobook stores. So if you're looking for something else to listen to during your Christmas travels this year, I suggest checking out Blade of Flames (as excellently narrated by Brad Wills). Cloak of the Embers, the 10th book in the Cloak Mage series (as excellently narrated by Hollis McCarthy)…the recording of that is done and it is being proofed right now, so I am hopeful we can hopefully have that out before Christmas (if all goes well). In fact, after I record this podcast episode, I'm going to have to convert the ebook cover of Cloak of Embers into an audiobook cover for Cloak of Embers. So that is where I'm at with my current writing and publishing projects. There is definitely a lot going on. 00:03:40 Main Topic: 6 Helpful Writing Tools for Indie Authors in 2025 [All Prices referenced are USD.] Now we're going to move on to our main topic this week, which is six helpful writing tools for indie authors in 2025. Last year in 2024, I did a roundup of popular software tools for writers and I thought I would give a quick update for it. Some of these tools like Calibre and LibreOffice I use, while others like Scrivener and Notion just aren't great fit for my workflow, I still want to talk about them anyways since just because I don't use them doesn't mean that they're not good and a lot of writers do in fact use them. Many writers also have complex systems for organizing their files and would benefit from tools like that. Without further ado, here are six pieces of software used for writing and writing adjacent tasks. I should mention before we get going as well that none of these tools are explicitly generative AI tools because as you know, if you've listened to the podcast over the years is my opinion of generative AI remains mostly negative. I have and continue to do some marketing experiments with generative AI elements, but I remain overall unimpressed by the technology. So with that in mind, none of these software tools I'm going to mention are explicitly AI tools. Some of them do have AI elements that you can plug in and use if you want to, but they aren't part of the core functionality of the application unless you specifically seek it out. With that in mind, let's get to it. #1: The first one we will talk about is Scrivener. Scrivener is of course essentially a word processor and project management system specifically designed for creative or nonfiction writing, unlike a traditional word processor like Microsoft Word, LibreOffice Writer, or Apple Pages. It features tools for outlining, for breaking documents into chapters, tracking word count goals and et cetera. One of the major benefits of it is a one-time cost instead of as a subscription because it seems like everything is a subscription nowadays, but Scrivener is still $60 a pop. They also offer a free trial and student discount and occasionally [it will] go on sale during peak times like the holidays. The downside of this is that Scrivener has a sharp learning curve. For myself when I write, I write either in Microsoft Word or Libre Office and I just sit down and write. When I write an outline, it's one Word document and the rough draft is another document that I write until I'm done. Scrivener is definitely a more complex software application, which I have to admit is funny to say because Microsoft Word is ridiculously complicated and has, in my opinion, far more functionality stuffed into it than it really needs. But Scrivener is a different kind of functionality and therefore the learning curve could be quite high for that. Additionally, this may not be the right software tool to work with your style of writing or how you organize your files. A couple extra thoughts with that is it's important to know yourself. Will you actually use the extra features included with Scrivener or do they just look cool and shiny? Scrivener probably is best for those who take extensive notes on their work, especially if trying to organize research based on chapters where it's needed. So if you're a nonfiction writer or if you're a historical fiction writer or a thriller writer who is very concerned about accuracy in your books, this may be useful for you so you can put in notes about the proper way to address a duke in 19th century England or what caliber of ammunition your thriller hero's preferred firearm takes. It's maybe the best for the kind of people who enjoy curating their Notion and Trello accounts and are able to think about their book in a very visual way without letting that process be an excuse to keep them from writing. I'd also say it's good for people who extensively revise blocks of text within a chapter and move chapters around a lot. #2: Canva. Canva has been around for a long time and it is a platform that makes it easy to create visual content using a drag and drop interface that provides a variety of templates, fonts, and designs to use for things like social media posts. They currently have two tiers for individuals, a limited free option, and Canva Pro, which is $12.99 a month. Some of the pros for Canva are it is well-suited for using templates for writers to create images for social media posts and book marketing material. The learning curve is not very steep, especially compared with something like Photoshop. If you've used PowerPoint before, you can definitely handle Canva. The cons: although some people use it to create book covers, many books have been flagged by Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) and some of the other publishing platforms for doing so. I would advise you to avoid Canva for creating book covers because of the potential for issues that could keep your book out of ebook stores. At the very least, read Canva's terms of use and the rules of KDP and the other ebook publishers very, very carefully before you would even begin to consider using Canva for this purpose. Many of the free features have been folded into the pro version such as sharing template links. The editing and design features are basic compared to something like Photoshop, though that may change as we're going to discuss a little bit here. Because Canva is so popular, there's a certain amount of snobbery out there about using its designs without significant modification. You may have encountered on social media or the Internet people who react very negatively to the presence of AI generated images and this exists to a lesser extent with Canva templates. "Looks like it was made in Canva" is sometimes used as an insult. If you want a unique style and look for your images, you'll have to work a little more to achieve that using Canva. Canva is quick for great one-time things like Facebook or BookBub ads, but I wouldn't recommend using it for book creation or book covers at this time because of the potential problems that can arise from that. For myself, I don't usually use Canva. I've had enough practice with Photoshop that I'm pretty confident in making whatever I want in terms of ad images or book covers in Photoshop, and I use Photoshop for that. However, since I organized the notes for this episode, there is a major caveat to that. Recently, Canva acquired a program called Affinity Photo Editor, which is essentially a much lower cost alternative to Photoshop. When this happened, there was a great deal of negativity around it because people thought Canva was going to jack up the price or make it into an overpriced subscription. But what Canva did surprised a great many people in that they made Affinity totally free and essentially are using a freemium model with it where you can use Affinity Photo Editor for free. It used to be, I believe like $79, possibly $69, and then any of the other features like downloading additional content from Canva would cost part of your Canva subscription. So I have to admit, I'm sufficiently curious about this, that when I write the tie in short story for Wizard-Assassin, I may use Affinity Photo Editor to assemble the cover for it just to see if it would work for that or not, because as I've said, I use Photoshop, but Photoshop is very expensive, Adobe frequently does business practices that are a bit shifty, and the idea of a freemium alternative to Photoshop is not necessarily a bad idea. So when I write a tie in short story for Wizard-Assassin later this month, I think I will attempt to make the cover in Affinity Photo Editor and see if that is something that would be good for my workflow or not, and I will report on that later. #3: Number three is Notion, which can be used to organize information, links, calendars, and reminders into one central dashboard. They have two plans for individuals, a free plan and a Plus plan, which is currently $10 to $12 per month (depending on whether you want a monthly or an annual plan). The Plus version offers unlimited file uploads, greater customizations, and integrations with Slack and Google Drive. The pros for using Notion is that it is popular with writers and content creators for being able to have project planning tools, notes, lists, links, trackers, and reminders all in one dashboard. If you enjoy customization and getting something set up exactly the way you want, you might enjoy setting up your lists, calendars, trackers, and notes through Notion. You can add images and adjust the layout and colors for a more "aesthetic" experience. It is easy to find customized templates [online], especially for writers and for things like storyboarding, word counts, and keeping tracks of sources for nonfiction writing. These Notion templates are shared by individuals, not the company and can be free or paid. Now, some of the cons with Notion. It didn't used to use very much AI, but the company is leaning increasingly heavy into AI, both as a company and in its features on the boards, if that is a concern. The amount of customization options and detail can be absolutely overwhelming. Someone who gets decision fatigue easily or doesn't want to customize a lot and might not enjoy using it. Some people are increasingly complaining that the software is getting too overloaded with features and is slow. For people who value being organized and love having complex and highly visual systems, Notion might be helpful. The downside is that maintaining your Notion boards can easily turn into what I call a "writing-adjacent activity" that gives you the illusion of productivity because of the time you spend managing and updating it aside from the business of getting actual writing done. So once again, this is a good example of "know thyself." If this is something that would be helpful for you, go ahead and pursue it. But if it's something that could turn into a tool for procrastination, it's probably better to avoid it. For myself, I am old enough that when I need to make lists and keep track of things, I have a yellow legal pad on my desk that I write things down on. #4: The next piece of software we're going to look at is LibreOffice. It is an open source piece of software that closely matches Microsoft Office, including Microsoft Word. Pros: It's free and open source. There's a minimal learning curve for those already familiar with Microsoft Word. The interface is a little different, but it's pretty easy to figure things out if you're familiar with Word or Excel. Some swear that that LibreOffice is faster than Word. It depends on the kind of document you're working on and the kind of computer you're using. So that's an area where your mileage may vary. It is also the best word processing option for privacy advocates, especially for those who are concerned about Microsoft and Google storing their work and possibly harvesting it for AI because by default, LibreOffice doesn't work with any AI elements. If you want it to work with any AI elements, plugins are available but they are not included. It's great for the writer who doesn't want to support Microsoft for any reason but still wants to be able to easily save documents in Microsoft file formats like .docx. It works. I've written entire books using it. I wrote all of Soul of Serpents and Soul of Dragons in it, and that was 13 years ago now, and the software has only improved since then. I wrote Silent Order: Eclipse Hand [using it] in 2017 and was very happy with the results, and I still use it for various projects every week, and I found a couple times if something was screwed up in the formatting of Microsoft Word, if I opened it up in LibreOffice, I could fix it pretty easily and much easier than I could in Word. It does have a few cons. The user interface compared to Word or something like Apple Pages does look a bit dated, but it's still navigable. It doesn't have any cloud storage functionality. You would need to piece it together with another storage option if you want to be able to backup stuff to the cloud. But overall, if you can't afford the Microsoft Office Suite, don't want to support Microsoft, and value your privacy, this is your best bet for word processing. Some people may not like its interface, but it's still an extremely solid piece of free software. #5: And now let's move on to our fifth software tool, which is Calibre. Calibre is a tool for ebook management. It can be used for file formatting, changing your books' metadata, or changing file formats. Many use it to create a custom ebook library. Pros include: the product is free and open source. It is easy to generate different file formats for book publication. Do you want to categorize and organize your books in a very specific way? Calibre works for that. The cons: some people find the interface a little clunky and it comes with a bit of a learning curve. To be honest, the interface does look like it came from Windows 2000 and some of the features rely on knowledge of HTML and CSS. Editing and formatting of the book itself is better done using other software. Final thoughts on that? The software is trustworthy, reliable, and has been maintained over the years. It does exactly what it says it does, without any real style but plenty of substance. And I've been a regular Calibre user for like 15 years now, and whenever I get a new computer Calibre is usually one of the very first things I install on it. #6: And now for our sixth and final tool, Inkarnate. Inkarnate is a very useful piece of software that is designed for creating maps. I believe it was originally intended to create maps for role-playing games like Dungeons and Dragons and Pathfinder and so forth. But it's also very useful for creating maps for fantasy novels. As I may have mentioned on the podcast a few times before, I really don't like making maps. I find it constraining and it makes the writing feel a bit crabbed at times. That said, I write primarily in the fantasy genre and people in the fantasy genre love maps, so I'm kind of on the hook for making maps. I used to draw the maps by hand and then import it into Photoshop and add all the locations and add colors and so forth. But that is a lot of work, I have to admit. Inkarnate makes it a lot easier, and I've used it for the last couple of maps I've made. The map of the city of Tar-Carmatheion in the Half-Elven Thief books came from Inkarnate. The map of Owyllain for Blades of Ruin came from Inkarnate, and the map of New Kyre and adjoining regions for Ghost Armor also came from Inkarnate. It's very affordable too. The subscription, I believe, is only $30 a year, and I've been using for a few years now and have never regretted it. So I'd say all the pros are all the ones I've already listed. The cons are that the learning curve is a little bit sharp, but there are excellent YouTube videos and tutorials for that. So, final thoughts. If you find yourself needing to make maps and don't enjoy the process of making maps, then Inkarnate is the software product for you. So those are six tools, software tools for indie authors that I hope will make you more productive and make your work easier. So that is it for this week.

In this episode, we'll explore Siemens EDA's innovative approach to AI and dive into Calibre-specific topics. We'll discuss when to use Calibre, when it might not be the best fit, and how to leverage it to maximize productivity and designer effectiveness—all without compromising on quality.AI is everywhere these days, from space exploration to dating apps, and Siemens has been a pioneer in this space, investing in AI long before it became a trend. So, let's dive in and explore how Siemens EDA is shaping the future of design with AI.

LibreOffice is dumping Windows (OK, not all of Windows), there's anime catgirls keeping the kernel safe, and FFmpeg makes a major new release. Kdenlive has a release, Thunderbird has announced ThunderMail, and one of the hosts gives CachyOS a spin. For tips we're covering Gnome System Extensions, using WirePlumber for volume control, hacks for waking your monitor back up, and unbuffer for keeping your colors where they belong. You can find the show tips at http://bit.ly/45Nszrr and come back next week for more!

Seven and a half exhilarating hours from one of modern club's sharpest. Tim Reaper's mammoth entry for RA.1000 is all about range. You thought the Future Retro London boss was just a jungle and hardcore head? Think again. The mix's infinite-scroll tracklist (the longest we've ever published in full!) includes a who's who of top-rate producers, from A Guy Called Gerald and Cari Lekebusch to Batu, Mia Koden and the one and only Shackleton. Opening with weighty grime and ending on head-spinning drum & bass, the mix journeys through US club, wobbly dubstep, classic techno and, of course, many shades of jungle. Rather than go the easy route, the Londoner approached the assignment with the curiosity, integrity and vulnerability of fellow shapeshifters like dBridge, Calibre and ASC. "The idea was to represent other styles of electronic music that I've been a bit self-conscious about openly expressing my interest in," he told RA. RA.1000 isn't just another side of Tim Reaper's artistry—it's a full and verdant spectrum. And thankfully for us, it feels like only the beginning. @tim-reaper Find the interview and tracklist at ra.co/podcast/1012.
