I've been using Asahi as my daily driver on my m1 MacBook for a few weeks now. The only thing I've noticed that seems to not work is audio through the built in speakers. I normally use Bluetooth headphones anyways so I haven't tried to fix it.

I've been using Grimmory(previously Booklore) and have been very happy with it. It integrates well with Hardcover and Kobo ereaders (with some minor software modifications).

I don't currently have an automated solution for downloading ebooks.

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change

Thanks for checking! That was in fact a typo and I edited my comment to reflect it!

From the linked article:

Since 1923, the mileage death rate has decreased 93% and now stands at 1.38 deaths per 100 million miles driven.

This is about 72,000,000 miles between motor vehicle deaths, not 500,000 miles.

According to this article https://driving-tests.org/driving-statistics/:

In 2022, there were 5,930,496 police-reported motor vehicle crashes (Source: https://driving-tests.org/driving-statistics/)

And

In 2022, there were 235,086,153 licensed drivers and 303,528,576 registered vehicles in the United States. These drivers drove a total of 3,196,191 million (i.e., over three trillion) vehicle miles that year. (NHTSA, August 2024) (Source: https://driving-tests.org/driving-statistics/)

Which is just over 500,000 miles between police reported crashes.

Edited to correct numbers as noted by comments!

From the article:

"We really are developing what I would consider a new class of vehicle," Kraus said. "We do something that's a little bit wild, which is we actually put a motor in the vehicle. So even though it's towed, it's also self-propelling. It's supporting its own drag and its own mass."
