Shareware Heroes is a comprehensive, meticulously researched exploration of an important and too-long overlooked chapter in video game history
Shareware Heroes: The renegades who redefined gaming at the dawn of the internet takes listeners on a journey, from the beginnings of the shareware model in the early 1980s, the origins of the concept, even the name itself, and the rise of shareware’s major players-the likes of id Software, Apogee, and Epic MegaGames-through to the significance of shareware for the "forgotten" systems-the Mac, Atari ST, Amiga-when commercial game ✅Publishers turned away from them.
This book also charts the emergence of commercial shareware distributors like Educorp and the BBS/newsgroup sharing culture. And it explores how shareware developers plugged gaps in the video gaming market by creating games in niche and neglected genres like vertically-scrolling shoot-’em-ups (e.g. Raptor and Tyrian), or racing games (e.g. Wacky Wheels and Skunny Kart), or RPGs (God of Thunder and Realmz), until finally, as the video game market again grew and shifted, and major ✅Publishers took control, how the shareware system faded into the background and fell from memory.

Ambition Redefined Why the Corner Office Doesn’t Work for Every Woman & What to Do Instead


Free Download Ambition Redefined: Why the Corner Office Doesn’t Work for Every Woman & What to Do Instead by Kathryn Sollman, Rebecca Gibel, Tantor Audio
English | March 26, 2019 | ISBN: B07PMFT81W | 7 hours and 33 minutes | MP3 128 Kbps | 415 Mb
Ambition Redefined is a timely alternative to current women’s business books that define professional ambition and success as climbing the corporate ladder. In fact, this is not a path that all women want or should feel pressured to follow. Sollmann’s focus is on the more critical and widespread workplace issue for everyday women – to always work in a way that fits their lives alongside their two major caregiving roles: for children and aging parents.
Sollmann debunks common assumptions such as
It’s not "worth it" unless the salary is high. Women forfeit up to 4X their salaries every year out of the workforce to care for children and/or elderly parents – and it does not take a six-figure salary to achieve long-term financial security.

Capital Redefined A Commonist Value Theory for Liberating Life


Free Download S. A. Hamed Hosseini, "Capital Redefined: A Commonist Value Theory for Liberating Life "
English | ISBN: 1032374764 | 2023 | 140 pages | EPUB, PDF | 2 MB + 6 MB
Capital Redefined presents a unique perspective on the nature of "capital," departing from the prevailing reductionist accounts. Hosseini and Gills offer an expanded perspective on Marxian value theory by addressing its main limitations and building their own integrative value theory. They argue that the current understanding of "value" must be re-examined and liberated from its subservient ties to capital while acknowledging the ways in which capital appropriates value. This is achieved by differentiating between "fetish value" created by capital and "true value" generated through various commons-based forms of coexistence.
