A few days ago, u/theoldones accused me of spreading malware, despite having no proof.
I had made the book for his subverse as a sort of peace offering, since we had our differences, but were moving past it. I was wrong. I was banned for vote manipulation (as many others were) and he used this to try and spread lies about me. I took the book down because fuck him, he can't have nice things then. I managed to share the book with h8grenade, who has since deleted his account. I will not be sharing the book with anyone else. I can't prove that it wasn't malware, so I will describe how I made the book and people can judge for themselves.
I first copy pasted the text of the havamal into a doc file, and saw that most of the text was in tables. On kindles, tables don't show properly so I started working on that. I copy pasted over 1000 lines of text to get it out of the table, which took quite a long time, and tried to convert it using kindle create. Kindle create only lets you publish to the amazon store, so I looked online for a azw3 converter and then put it into my kindle to check. For some reason, the title of the book was appearing as a string of characters (p1dbmp8m6o1rqq....) so I tried to work on that. I couldn't fix the title, so I gave up and posted the book.
tl;dr u/theoldones cannot be trusted, no you can't have the book

the file didnt work when examined, and this was investigated because you got banned. i've been more then detailed on what i think of you and your account
even if you're speaking the truth here and it wasnt a virus, it was still broken

theoldones ago

Maggotbait88 ago
Fuck off cunt. There's no proof of a virus.
theoldones ago
do you mean except for the fact, that it's supposed to be a working book, but the program that supposedly compiled it can't open it?
at best you fucked up compiling the book. at worst, it's not a book
Maggotbait88 ago
