I personally use Calibre+Calibre-web.

It’s configured as a proxy for the Kobo store, the default store for my e-reader.

That means that when I click the sync button on my Kobo, it downloads anything hosted on my calibre-web server, while still keeping the ability to browse the Kobo store.

In that scenario, chances are your grandparents, parents and extended family is also rich.

It’s more about wanting their money to end up in your pockets when they die.

It doesn’t quite fit your requirements, but org mode from emacs is very close.

.org files instead of .md, and the preview does require a bit of config, but it’s not as bad as some make it be, especially if you pickup a preconfigured emacs “distro” (like doom emacs for example) in which case I think it’s just a feature flag to set to on.

Org is also very appreciated for it’s TODO features, which you seem to make a big use of.

It probably isn’t a match for you due to the markdown requirement, but I’m mentioning it just in case you didn’t consider it in the past.

And then, inevitably:

Those kind of cables:

I recently saw someone put an old.school “yellow red white” cable (no idea how they’re actually called) in a jack socket from a PC to a Jack TV port.

It seems not complicated to me, but apparently it is ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Wouldn’t it just get forked?

Sure, once it happens they can add more features, but there’s already proton forks today that are recommended for some games, such as https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom

Sure, the company is for profit, but I don’t really see a mechanism where a rugpull is possible here.

FTL travel in the series of book “the interdependency” is one of the major plot devices, so it’s one of those that marked me the most.

Without going into spoilers: FTL is limited to using a natural phenomenon that are pretty much akin to space-rivers, so humanity has no power onto what systems are connected to one another.

As rivers do, those “currents” can also shift and have done so in the past: the place where the books happen are completely cut off from earth since pretty much forever, for example.

I manage instances of both mongo and postgres at work.

I’ll say Mongo OpsManager is pretty sweet, and HA is way easier on Mongo.

Just this last month I played “Final Profit - A Shop RPG”: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1705140/Final_Profit_A_Shop_RPG/

An RPG Maker game with no combat, quite a lot of story that’s honnestly not bad and more custom systems than I expected RPG Maker being able to handle.

My understanding is that it was made by a single guy, which for the size of the game is fairly impressive.

You play as the Queen of the Elves trying to fight the embodiment of capitalism by becoming the very best capitalist. I believe there’s some branching to the story, but I only did one playthrough, which took about 20 hours.

For linux only, lan only shared drive NFS is probably the easiest you’ll get, it’s made for that usecase.

If you want more of a dropbox/onedrive/google drive experience, Syncthing is really cool too, but that’s a whole other architecture qhere you have an actual copy on all machines.

Le plus simple c’est d’essayer et de voir:

• assure toi d’avoir des backups suffisant
• installe la distribution de ton choix
• regarde si leus jeux qui t’intéresse sont compatible/fonctionnel avec ton installation.

Si tu as un 2ieme disque, installer Linux dessus est probablement la manière la pljs skmple tout en pouvant rollback sur ton OS coursnt si tu réalise qu’il y a des problèmes.

Évite le dual boot sur un seul disque a moins d’être déjà habile avec l’OS: ça augmente les risque de bris (Windows brise souvent les bootloader Linux par exemple)

La chose qui est encore un problème fréquent aujourd’hui c’est les anticheat, et si le developpeur du jeux choisi de flag les install Linux comme du cheat, il y a peu de choses qui peuvent être faites par nous les utilisateurs finaux.

The use above says “it feels” and you answer that it is not.

I understand this is a gendred issue, but acknowledging feelings of people seems like something we should all agree on.

I was sure that Nintendo would do kore movies after the success of the Mario one.

My bet was on either Zelda or Metroid, as their universe feels good for a movie storyline.

I didn’t expect a live action at all though and would have bet on an animated movie, I’m honestly not sure how I feel about that choice.

Kid-me would have been crazy about it, but I can’t help to be doubtful about a live action.

The portable part of the console doesn’t seem to matter to you.

So really I think the real question you have to ask yourself is: do you want nintendo games?

If yes, switch 2 seems like a good fit.

Otherwise, most other games are on everything now (PC, xbox and playstation)

Another console might fit your requirements.

If you are willing to disregard thenplug and play, you could also consider a PC with steam big picture: it’s pretty close to a console experience.

“Some places in Quebec” might just be anglophone regions.

They understand French, but don’t like to speak it.

Source: I was born in Quebec with French as a native language, and some people will speak English to me even if I really try to make it French.

You are totally right, I tend to forget most people often don’t know the difference!

Im curious, did you watch the video?

This specific case does seem to be using AI as opposed to classical algorithms and did see an incredible boost in efficiency.

I mean, tech is tech: how we use it is the defining factor.

AI as a whole can have positive impacts: the incredible leaps from the medical field in protein folding being a good example: https://youtu.be/P_fHJIYENdI

Phone or Kobo, depending on source.

I love the openness of the kobo - if you’re a technical user it’s way easier to get it to do cool stuff.

The feature I like most comes from this project: https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web

It’s a selfhosted webapp where you can upload your epubs, the killer feature is that it can be a proxy that sits between your Kobo and the official store, so just hitting sync on the device itself will also sync all your 3rd party books.

Not fiddling with cables to transfer the books is awesome.
