Yesterday, I teased good news. So today, here it is.
From now until the end of the year (midnight EST on 12/31), I have marked down my books by 26% on Rakuten Kobo. Now you too can read the first two books of the Arcane Revolution trilogy, completely free of DRM, on the e-reader of your choosing.
The books are pulpy thriller-esque urban fantasy adventures pitting a veteran homicide investigator against a shadowy government spook for no lesser stakes than the ongoing freedom of humanity. In a nation still scarred by magical terrorism a decade previous, Agency Division is losing its ability to keep magic secret and controlled.
This is merely the first component of today's good news. If this sale goes well for me, it will help with the second piece. More to follow later in the day.

@bert_hubert @vitaut also it should be kept in mind that the ZX Spectrum was released before the IEEE-754 standard, and the standard itself was developed *because* the were a lot of incompatible and some honestly frankly horrid systems around, not just Sinclair's stuff.

@impermanen_ I think I lost 20% of my hearing just looking at the image. ;-)
Must have been pretty loud for whoever took the photo!

Apache OpenOffice lists download information here, for everyone who is interested:
https://www.openoffice.org/stats/downloads.html
They say there have been about 390M downloads total. From the stats, I'm estimating somewhere in the low tens of thousands of downloads per day.

@evan I used Word most recently on Friday, working on a proposal.
But on the other hand I used Jupyter -> LaTeX -> Emacs -> pdf on Tuesday, a publishing system that gave me much more pleasure. Not something that my colleagues will realistically repeat though.

@thtp @Unixbigot are tariffs different for those though?

@evan bbedit.
