This is what Sam said regarding the CC information not being stored by JNC:

@sam-pinansky said in Paypal:

@keul you need to understand more how webpages work. Just because the form is shown on our web address doesn't mean that when you hit the "submit" button that the information you enter is sent to the address shown on the browser. What actually happens, see, is that it triggers a JavaScript https request to stripe's server when you hit submit. This sends the cc card in to stripes server and they check that the card is valid. They then send back to the browser a token, which is like a signature for your account and cc info (it's not the card info itself), and THAT is the information we store on our servers.
Feel free to check the actual http connections in the browser developer console if you aren't convinced.

@sniper_samurai yes again I am aware now, cause I checked after you posted and deleted the Beta version and downloaded the official version, back when I posted I was only unaware that it came off of beta.

@jaquobus THANK YOU

@galactuskahn24 geez sorry

@myskaros said in Will the make Offline Reading:

JNC specifically has the license to "stream" prepublication content, so making it readily available offline could be a breach of contract.

Hmm, if we are talking about contract here, then I will not have enough knowledge to try to bend it, especially when I don't know the exact wording and interpretation.

It looks like one of the big themes of the series is the disconnect between how she thinks of herself and her actions ('perfectly reasonable!'), and the hints we see from others' reactions ('no, they really aren't!'). I'm not familiar with how these suggestions would be made in Japanese idiom; is it represented any differently there, and how hard is it to translate those hints?

@tmurdock88 Can you email me at support@ ?
I will take a look at your account to see if you have the appropriate credit numbers.

Personally, for iOS, I convert ePubs to MOBI and read them all with the Kindle app. That being said, the iBooks app is built-in to iOS and supports ePub, so you can read ePubs without even installing any software.

@versace217 there are currently 2 models for JNC

The subscription model where you can read the latest ebook for any series or the ebook model where you buy ebooks and read them with no subscription.

There are catchup Monish where some series are selected and all available volume are released for subscribers.

@redarx If getting and processing data in JSON format instead of parsing text with regex will make your life easier, don't hesitate to tell me. Though I don't know if workflow can do that or not.

@sam-pinansky hand crafted with love and care at that!

Text to speech functionality for novels in app would be cool.

@sam-pinansky No problem though, it's only a temporary measure while waiting for the official feature xD

I'd say I'm "learning to tl" more from a business perspective at the moment. Just so happens that makes it a lot easier to TL from a hobby perspective as well.

That said, I'm a fairly decent editor so that'll probably turn into my main forum activity in response to books currently in translation for official publication. I'm anal retentive enough that I spot grammatical and contextual errors consistently if nothing else. I'm buying a few different series and reading them from scratch first since Kindle books lack the extra short stories and such.

And translating light novels from a beach on Okinawa, a temple in Kyoto, or a hot spring in Hokkaido could be a future job. Harder to do in Tokyo because it's too much fun to people watch. ;)

@myskaros Very true, but the initial shock... :-O

Now that I'm thinking about it, it's a new credit card cycle. Time to but the next title on my list.

I’m not going to stop people from grabbing the premium editions that way if they want to. It’s not like we don’t have the rights to it anymore. Consider it officially unlisted.
