Absolutely. I’ve burned a number of things to the ground as I figure out what tf I’m doing. I’ve learned a lot doing it too!

I’m the same. I prefer apple products generally speaking, but Apple sucks just as much as every other giant asshole company and I don’t like Apple. There’s no ethical consumption in capitalism. Fuck all these companies.

The year was 2002, and the distro was Caldera Open Linux 2.2

edit to add: Currently running KDE Neon. KDE 6 is pretty great so far.

Chiming in for Radicale. Been running it for a couple of years now along with Fantastical (I’m on iOS/macOS), and it’s been great.

Obviously not, but the behavior already shows that Meta/Threads isn’t interested in being a good fediverse citizen, and in doing so lends more credibility to the idea that they’re aiming to embrace, extend, and extinguish.

Also switched from homarr to homepage and have been happy with homepage.

FWIW, I was also looking for an ebook server solution. I looked at Calibre/Calibre-web and did not at all like how that worked and how Calibre-web was dependent on the Calibre library, and I hated how janky Calibre was as a docker container.

I settled on Audiobookshelf. I already had that up and running for my audiobooks, and they’ve been adding and improving ebook support, and I’ve been very happy with Audiobookshelf for both ebooks and audiobooks.

I didn’t care for Kavita because of the folder structure it required for ebooks. I may have been biased against Kavita’s folder requirements because I already had Audiobookshelf up and running.

For Audiobookshelf, the structure is:

Author > Series Directory (if applicable) > Book Title (directory) > Book file

I had the same question awhile back and found no alternative to Calibre with the de-drm (I’m on macOS). So I do the same. Download my ebooks from amazon, de-drm with calibre and upload to my server.

That’s fair. My experience with the movie when I was watching it was similar. When it was over my wife and I looked at each other and we both were like, “what the fuck did we just watch?”

The next day we found ourselves quoting the movie and laughing our asses off about it. It seems that we needed time to process it in order to appreciate it.

Jesus. Part two is FOUR HOURS? That’s bonkers.

Oh man. This movie. I can handle some plot holes. But I cannot believe that the entirety of the world (or, let’s just say the entire United States of America) didn’t once think, ”Hey, these things can hear SUPER FUCKING GOOD, maybe we can somehow use that against them?”

And that nail in the stairs? Come on.

I loved how in The Batman, the obviously not experienced Batman was just strait up manipulated and led around by the nose by the Riddler.
