You made me laugh in the middle of a pretty shitty day. Thank you.

It was common in France until my dad’s childhood, in the 60s. There were commercials for Ricoré (half coffee, half chickory) in the 80s. AFAIK, you can still buy it in all supermarkets.

Fwiw, it’s répertoire.

I mean, most languages are not written.

I had that exact same model 15 years ago. It got stolen and I’m still not over it. I got basic Kobo readers instead; they work fine with Calibre and any ebook you can get. I don’t touch Amazon with a ten-foot pole, and I never use the Kobo account you have to create when buying the device.

But I’d give somebody’s left arm to have the Sony back. It was perfect.
