I have a feeling it has more to do with low production cost than anything else sadly :/

What’s so messed up to me is that the implants I design, inactive pieces of metal, are required to be operable for the life of our longest living patient PLUS 20 YEARS. Yet somehow as soon as electronics are involved they can get away with this. How long until pacemakers or insulin pumps need a license to continue functioning?
This is why I have an issue with privatized medicine.
I’ll definitely give them a listen!
I also need to recommend, as you seem to be a brid of my feather, using audible and a kindle together to trade off between daytime story listening and nighttime reading in bed. I know Amazon is evil, and there are a lot of issues in particular with audible’s payment structure towards indie authors, but God damn do they offer a compelling service. I picked up a new-gen Paperwhite last prime day and my bedtime routine and travel bag has been irrepreably changed.
I’d love to hear more about what you’ve been listing to!
Edit: I didn’t make it clear above but Amazon will track your progress between the audiobook and the Kindle book and sync them.
I’d like to add the audiobooks are quite good for those who listen! They’re a very fun series (I’ve “only” been through the first 6, quite a few more after I checked.)
This is where public transit would come in. And it’s not like most of us want to do away with all final mile delivery, emergency vehicles, etc. We just don’t want the car infrastructure to be the primary concern in the design of public spaces.
Straw-maning the elderly and disabled for car use is also interesting, as those are probably both groups that either shouldn’t or can’t drive a car for other reasons.
