 What's up internet? Kundi pa ganin ko obvious, an kind of a nerd, and that's where I play civilization. Oh my goodness, that was embarrassing. Yung isang historic outsaying galing sa game na yun na talagang tumatak sa akin, is there's no wealth like knowledge, no poverty like ignorance. Di hamak mahirap talaga sa atin. Pero baka isang paraan para makaahon tayo dun sa physical nakahirapan, is to ensure na hindi mahirap yung utak natin. Or kung baga, we don't suffer a poverty of the mind. Bukas pa rin yung utak natin sa mga ibang posibilidad. Bukas pa rin tayo sa mga bagong discoveries. Bukas pa rin tayo that we remain curious and that we feed that curiosity. Pag usapan natin sa video na to, panong makabasa nung basically 80-90% of all modern books ng libre, wulang bayad. Basta may internet connection ka, makukuha mo sila. You just need to know two sites na sa text description below. Sa dalawa na yun, usually makahanap mo na kahit anong libro. Yung library genesis may ba't ibang scientific articles as well. Straight forward naman interface nila, especially yung Z library. Yung library genesis, just have more filters para manarodown mo ano yung hinahanap mo. Once you find the book that you need, usually either nakahipap, moby, or PDF yun. Ngayon na nanahanap mo, na download mo, pano mo naman sila babasahin? If you're a kindle, you need to use the moby file format. May mga free online converters that allow you to upload a file na nakaipap and then ibe-begay sa yun in moby. So na convert mo na yung file into moby, Amazon makes it super easy. You can register your kindle tas makakaroon siya nung sariling email address at kindle.com. So for example, re-register ko yung kindle ko under hardware sugar, magiging hardware sugar at kindle.com. Tapos, i-email mo lang yung file dun sa address na yun. Open up any regular email. Let's say, let's say, pepperizal at gmail.com. Attach a file. Create a regular email. Attach the moby file and then send it to hardware sugar at kindle.com. Send the email. Amazon will ask you for verification na ikaw nga nagpadala nung file na yun. Walang problema, kahit sanggaling yung file na yan, Amazon doesn't care. Amazon does not screen the files. Make sure na kaon yung data connection nung kindle mo para makuha niya. Kung walang akramang kindle, for sure may cellphone ka, either Android or iOS. You can use Google Books na meron both sa Android and sa iOS. Nakalink siya dun sa Google account mo. For example, yung Google account yung hardware sugar is hardware sugar at gmail.com. Hanapin mo lang yung books dun sa desktop or i-download mo lang yung app to your phone. Just upload the book that you got to your Google Books tapos lalabas na siya sa shelf mo. In baka na pa dito, di mo kailangan iconvert to movie. Google Books accepts E-Pub format and PDF format just fine. Sobrang simple lang niya, pero ibang klasid, nakakalula ilang libro yung kaya mong hanapin just using these simple steps. One, use library genesis or Z-Library. Two, search for the book that you're looking for. Three, download it. Four, send it to your device whether Kindle, or Android, or iOS. Is this piracy? Yes, it is. Pero na practical level, wala man talaga mga Hubble sayo dahil nag-download ka nung ilang libro. This is a very personal video for me and hindi ito monetized, wala ang ads na tumatakbo dito, hindi rin siya sponsored. Wala akong natanggap ni Isang Centavo sa pagkukwento ko sa inyo paano makakukuhan ng libro. Mahalaga rin tandaan na hindi ito good versus bad. These are two goods competing against each other. On one hand, the good generated by individual citizens having access to works of literature, history, political science, any books under the sun para lumawak yung ka-isipan nila to broaden the horizons. Yung nga, mahirap tayo, pero hindi ibig sabihin nakailangan mahirap dito sa utak. So, there's a definite societal good to allowing the widest number of people access to the widest range of books possible. On the other hand, there's the other societal good of authors being compensated for their work. But it's probably not realistic to think of these as stolen sales. Yung karamihan na mag-download ng libro hindi naman nila bibilhin at all. Either kasi wala silang access even if they wanted to pay walang physical copy dito, walang available copy dito sa mga bookstores natin, or simply, hindi lang talaga nila kaya magbayad. Mahal yung mga libro. And if you want to read as much as possible, as widely as possible, mahal talaga yun. So, it's not simply good versus bad, yung mga nag-download ng libro nang nanakaw dun sa copyright or yung potential profits nung mga authors. It's a balance between two goods because you do want authors to be rewarded for their work, for their hardship, for their scholarship, versus the other good of individuals having access to the widest range of books possible. I think between the balancing of those two goods, it's better for society as a whole to favor individuals having the widest possible access to all kinds of texts. Siya kong tinggal mga yung kaisaysayan, yung mga nag-pupush nung copyright ngayon, sila rin yung naglabang sa copyright dati. Yung U.S. ngayon, ang daming copyright, daming patents, around the 19th century, kopya sila nung kopya nung mga European works infringing their copyrights, pero walang paki yung U.S. Pero ngayon, na, siyempre, mayama na yung U.S., nakukuhan nila yung knowledge transfer na nakailangan nila, sila ngayon yung gumagawa nung mga knowledge works that are under copyright, sila ngayon ang sasabi na, uu, copyright, uu, protected, uu, pilang ngumagbayad, hindi yung yung standung U.S. dati. Nung favorable sa kanila, nilabag nila yung copyright, pero ngayon na number one na sila, sila naman nagsasabi ngayon na, uu, dapat copyright. On a personal note, all of the videos on this channel from the very first one have been under the Creative Commons license. Basically hindi ako stricto sa copyright nung mga videos na to. Gamitin mo sila as long as you attribute the source properly. I felt it was important to add this explanation at the end na baka mas mahaba pa yung rationale kaisa sa actual practical how to download the books because I want you, the audience, to know that it isn't just a simple audio download mayan, ninyakam mayan, end of story. Susi talaga para makaunlad tayong lahat is education. And the best way to learn is through yourself. By exposing yourself through reading, through all sorts of things kait anong keelig mo magbasaka any topic under the sun may libro yan. Para ikaw na mismo makasabi ah ito tama, ah ito mali. So big believer in books, big believer in education, I think getting books online isn't as cut and dry as some industries would like you to believe. There's no wealth like knowledge, no poverty like ignorance. Thanks for watching.
