Am I right in thinking the steps here scrape metadata images etc for the eBooks you already have. And that you may already own them via legal or high seas methods.

Or is there a way for Calibre to auto download eBooks from somewhere.

Implying Lemmy is the best/only place to get political news. :/

Some of us come here for fun and get our doom elsewhere.

I think the whole key is more of a conversation starter than just QR code. We all know what they are and dont ask people questions aboit them.

Does it have persistence when rebooted ?

I read a heap of peer review articles on thst. They seemed to suggest a form without all the P when ads (sans?) Is just as good. Along woth mono space and larger font size.

Helvetica or Ariel are just as good. In use Adobe Ember or whatever its called.

YMMV

Ive been using Kali in a lab lately and the terminal seems to remember commands and prefills them. How do I do Something like that in Mint?

Do these health risks apply to phones :/?

Interestingly this is my path to linux, and Ive seen it recommended elsewhere.

Move all your services to the cloud, or foss software (as most is available on linux). Then get off windows.

Libreoffice Inkscape / gimp Firefox/Chromium Thunderbird Obsidian (for notes) Bitwarden Signal Syncthing

And most of these have phone apps too!

Why not make the move now while you have win10 to fall back on?

Obligatory: Mint was the best balanced distro I foind.

Got a libre2 recently as a gift. My first ereader. I was able to plug it into the PC. Change a line of code and reboot.

Thst made the email prompt go away.

Then installed koreader and syncthing on it. I DL books on Android and it syncs over to Kobo. I can even read via koreader app on andrpid and it syncs progression.

Why use calibre at all? KO reader and Sync thing seams to be fine for my mobile to e reader. And syncs progress.

What am I missing?

Desert just looks amateur and something thst might have competed with XP.

https://surveys.debian.net/ took me a minute to find the vite link.

Does the action run on incoming our outgoing calls? Sorry if question is autistic.

Cold brew French press running mint, checks out.

This is a pretty good start to make Mint (Cinnamon) look better.

Its basically mall built-in tools.

I ended up just putting icons in the middle (to prepare for works Win11 enshitification).

I also put a user button near the time to allow shutdown and removed the god awful power icons from the start menu (or whatever the app launcher is called).

Theres also an extend thin for a bigger start menu more like a grid but thats personal preference.

I think mint should do some of these things so its not so off putting. It held me back forming for so long but IRS much better.

I prefer mint over fedora. Fedora dosnt seem to have as many apps in the store. Yes you can use a terminal but thats not helping linux become mainstream, mint is.

+1 mint also prompts new users to setup timeshift backups.

Apart from the WordPress issue. Bitwarden mixup. And Linux getting into US/Israel politics.

Signed. Negative Nancy.

Endeavour IS is arch with KDE and a few basic apps. Pretty sure you dont need WiFi to test it. For any issues you can just use the arch wiki. I really enjoyed it as first distro as the wiki is so helpful. I moved to Mint tho (not DE) and have loved not having to use the terminal for anything.

Pretty sure DDG just uses bing results. Try in bing OP see what you get.
