I think we have to believe this because it is on official state television and directed at a Russian audience, and because the propagandists have been damned accurate in their statements so far. Also, this kind of casual brutality is absolutely on-brand for the Putin Regime and for Russia at large. If that comes to pass, it is easy to see the Turks stepping in to safeguard grain shipments and risk expanding the war in a direction Moscow never considered. An additional side effect of this is more support for Ukraine wresting control of Crimea, particularly Sebastopol, from Russia because with a Russian base in Crimea, Ukrainian grain shipments will never be safe or guaranteed.

Producing an Ebook, Step by Step - Standard Ebooks: Free and liberated ebooks, carefully produced for the true book lover.

This guide is meant to take you step-by-step through the creation of a complete Standard Ebook. While it might seem a little long, most of the text is a description of how to use various automated scripts. It can take just an hour or two for an experienced producer to produce a draft ebook for proofreading (depending on the complexity of the ebook, of course).

Our toolset is GNU/Linux-based, and producing an ebook from scratch currently requires working knowledge of the epub file format and of Unix-like systems like Mac or Linux.

Our toolset doesn’t yet work natively on Windows, but there are many ways to run Linux from within Windows, including one that is directly supported by Microsoft themselves.
