Thanks. Getting the layers of brown paper and grease-proof paper into the round tin is much harder than the actual cake making to be honest.

Anyone know how to find out the date a book was added to LibGen?

My Web 2.0 book is in LibGen but not the Anthropic settlement list. Perhaps added after the cut off date? Annoying...

If they going to end up raising the basic rate in the end then why not bite the bullet now and hope it has been forgotten by 2029?
