Ian Barton on Libation
Downloading and Decrypting Your Audible Books. I have a lot of books on Audible. I would like to download them in a format that is decrypted in case Audible goes "Mammaries skywards" in the future, or is taken over by another company that demands you pay for all your books again. I came across a free program called Libation. You can view it on GitHub and it can be installed on most operating systems. It has all sorts of filtering options and will download a postage stamp size icon. Note you can only download books that you have purchased from Audible.

AJ Santos on What’s Going On With Voyager 1? Future Looks Uncertain
Voyager 1 is the furthest any human object has ever gone from Earth. It is now over 15 billion miles from our planet, flying through interstellar space. Since its launch in August 1977, the spacecraft has remained in contact with Earth, but over the last several months, that communication has become nonsensical. Are we about to lose the second-longest operating spacecraft in human history?
