Excited for this year's Tour but the way you can tell cycling isn't a seriously contested sport is that the Big Four competitors are from countries — Denmark, Belgium, Slovenia (x2!) — with a total population of 20 million.

We filed our appeal in Hachette v. Internet Archive yesterday. If we are unsuccessful in our fight, libraries won’t be allowed to own and lend digital books, only license them from big media corporations. Why is that bad for YOU? 🧵in comments blog.archive.org/2023/12/15/i...
