Kindle Offer (YMMV): Spend $15+, Get $4 ebook credit

This is a targeted / invited offer, so there’s no general use link. You will find the offer while browsing around the Amazon website, or if you want to “encourage” their website to show you the offer (if you are eligible for it) start browsing around their eBooks pages…

The offer is this: spend $15+ in any Kindle ebook purchase(s) between August 27 and September 5 in 2019, and receive a $4 ebook credit towards future purchases. The $4 credit will be automatically added to your account two days after you reach the limit, and will be used automatically in your next eligible e-book purchases in the next 30 days after it was received. If not used within 30 days, it evaporates.

In addition to general fiction/non-fiction, there’s a number of camera and photography related ebooks. The ones with pictures and diagrams are best enjoyed on larger color screens but text-only books (eg Susan Sontag’s essays) can be nicely read on e-readers.

NOTE that you must manually hit the “Activate Now” button while logged on to your Amazon account in order for the offer to …activate 🙂

In-stock alert: Firefox 69 now blocks 3rd-party cookies

We have an in-stock alert of a totally different kind! Version #69 (they chose an important number for it LOL) of Firefox is now rolling out on all major systems and with it comes blocking of third-party cookies, which is one of the more common and effective ways the Advertising Industrial Complex is keeping tabs on us all. If you don’t want to install it immediately, it will prompt you for an update (Linux, Windows) or get updated when you do your next app-store update (iOS, Android).
