Tiny enough to paste the whole thing here. Clever trick to insert a "." after the .com that seems to trick some of the ad targeting. Wonder how many other sites this works on?

chrome.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(function (tabId, changeInfo, tab) {

    if (changeInfo.status === "loading" && /youtube.com/.test(changeInfo.url)) {

        let url = new URL(tab.url);
        if (!url.hostname.endsWith(".")) {

            url.hostname = url.hostname + ".";
            chrome.tabs.update(tabId, { url: url.href });
        }}})

People are slowly learning what we already knew for ALL of human existence. My cousin is in the same boat. 10+ years of college/med school. Just had her first child and has decided to be a stay at home mom instead. She was on a full ride starting as an undergrad (she's a great student and doctor and now will be a great mom).

huycfhct is a troll account pushing the, Adam Back invented Bitcoin narrative. There are A LOT of these accounts, Adam is well known for employing these guys like Greg Maxwell to social engineer their narrative into sites like this.

In the white paper it is explained that Bitcoin can ONLY can succeed as Peer-to-Peer digital cash, as it says in the title.

Any perversion or spin off of that goal is not "Bitcoin" as described by Satoshi.

Oddly, the Legacy BTC chain could increase the block size to lower fees and again be used a peer-to-peer cash. But it is now run for the benefit of companies like Blockstream.

Of course, Bitcoin Cash is the closest thing to "Bitcoin" we have today, and Ethereum is a close second in usefulness. The Legacy BTC chain is a "SoV" ponzi scheme at best, controlled opposition at worst.

I am looking for a co-founder for a project I've been working on for about three years but am just getting around to monetizing.

Audiobook publishing.

I know, between Audible and Podcast there is no niche for a new audiobook company.

Here is why you're wrong. "Audio" is taking off like a rocket right now. Everyone has access to every audiobook ever made in their pocket, but distribution and cost stand in the way.

OverDrive is great but lacks availability. Popular books are on 2-3 month wait lists.

Audible is great but most people don't want an Audiobook subscription.

Most people want want ONE audiobook, right NOW, that they are going to LOVE.

My company is playing to that customer.

(I have completed steps 1-3)

Step 1. A database of the top ~1,000 audiobooks. Step 2. A dead simple site that allows user ranked and curated lists by genre. Step 3. Allow users to modify sources to add for each book. Like their own Amazon affiliate link, OverDrive, YouTube, Magnet or Direct Download link. Each entry can be voted and commented on. Step 4. Purchase rights to and produce audiobooks, using the platform to leverage the product line.
