Majority of web apps could just run on a single server
Sure, at some point you're going to be relying on some 3rd party somewhere. We use a VPS and not a bare-metal hand-installed rack, and we rely on an electrical company and not a hand-turned crank to power our servers. As far as email goes, It's simply not possible to self-host transactional email in 2024 if you want it to arrive in an inbox and not a permanent spam blackhole; likewise it's not possible to accept money without involving a 3rd party service like Fractured Atlas or Stripe or PayPal. (Moving away from GitHub towards a self-hosted Git solution is actually on our long-term todo list[1]).
All those things doesn't mean you can't run your web app on a single tiny server, and that outsourcing the basic underpinnings of your web app, like the OS, runtime, and database to some cloud service, or that resorting to flavor-of-the-month frameworks or containers, will result in complexity and bloat.

Librum: Open-Source e-book platform
A number of e-book platforms are discussed on my blog, which dives deeply into the technical nuances of typesetting a few[1]. Ultimately, I typeset a classic from Standard EBooks[2], Dr. Jekyll and Mister Hyde[3].

Conversion from epub to kepub, and related Calibre use
It is the same when you download a kepub book from standardebooks.org. You will have the epub file with kepub features.
Now I have also just sideloaded a free ebook offered by Standard Ebooks, which provide kepub versions of its catalogue. They recommend the following :

It is important that ebooks be sold without DRM
> https://standardebooks.org/
Standard Ebooks is seriously impressive. One of my favorite sources of books in the public domain.
I’d also add in addition to this excellent list of DRM-free ebooks, it’s always worth looking into borrowing a book from the library via Libby/Overdrive.

The Project Gutenberg Open Audiobook Collection
Standard Ebooks has the ability to filter books bu reading level.
That seems much better for people trying to learn English.
They carefully curate and copy-edit their books, and go for quality over quantity. I think that is probably the right choice. We already have free access to an effectively infinite amount of mediocre content on the internet.

Kindle AND books?
I use my kindle for reading all of the free classics on Project Gutenberg and Standard EBooks. I also buy the occasional short story collection on Amazon and use my kindle for those. I always have a physical book, kindle book and audiobook going all at the same time. Physical book is main book and for heavier or more serious reads whereas audiobooks are my popcorn books and fun stuff. Kindle is everything in between - use it for travelling and reading in the dark (putting kids to bed and reading in bed next to wife).

CTF Writeup: 1337UP CTF 2022
To see deleted tweets, Internet Archive Wayback Machine could be used. So I inputted Drew Scanlon's twitter link on the Wayback Machine, which revealed that there was a capture on Feburary 5, 2022 and showed the following tweet:

Found out my boss has this on his public FB profile. Can I actually do anything about this? Or is it one of those 'outside of work is your own business' kinda things?
Also go to https://archive.org/web/ and put in the url for the post and save it so that there is a copy of it that will always be maintained and is separate from any storage device you have so you always have a backup
