I try to support publishers that give you the full ebooks like baen library.

Calibre helped me back up my entire amazon library in a way my kobo can now read instead of just kindle. Both are excellent devices, but I wanted a backlight after 7+ years with the same ebook reader. And I’m not about to purchase all those books aain for the privilege of using the kobo bookstore. Plus Calibre makes it so no matter what you get (pdf/ebook/proprietary format) you can get a good old fashion ebook format for future preservation.

Own your own ebooks. Make sure all devices work with whatever format you need.

Yep take a look, theres quite a few examples, but they use Github Actions, CircleCI, Gitlab etc… etc…

Most CI/CD that use the above-ish model will use the same kinda scripts (bash or otherwise). Basically if you can do it on your desptop, you can automate it on a server. Make it work first, then try to make it better.

Most of the time, ill throw my Docker/Docker Compose (and/or terraform if need be) on the root of the repo and do the same steps I do on the development side for building/testing on the CI side. Then switch over to CD with either a new machine (docker build/ compose) or throw it all on a new server. At that point, if you script it out correctly, it doesnt really matter what kind of server you use for CI/CD, since they are all linux boxes at the end of the day.

You can also mix it up by using bare metal, docker alternatives, different password managers, QA tools, linters, etc…etc…

But virtualization will get you quite far. In my opinion start with just trying to get the project to build on another server via a script from scratch, then transfer it over to the CI. Then go with testing/deployment.

GL!

Yep we do that at work-ish. Ci/CD is really good.

Oh god Access.

You have my condolences.

We have a couple of those at work. Black boxes that are used.

I’m rebuilding one after it failed on one morning for SQL odbc reasons. And its just a binary that shuffles data around.

Certain client work and some don’t. Jeroba does not work but Firefox does.

Kinda, theres a way orgs can now hide the activity. For example, my github:

and then when im logged in:

Im in multiple orgs but the main one is protected.

But GH commit tiles are a silly metric anyways.

And the bond market is in freefall… That’s not good, worse than the sp500.

Dont you know everyone on the internet is American /s ?

Yeah I was thinking of adding swap as my other systems have lots more.

This is just the default on yunohost.

Might not be, it’s just strange.

My other Linux machines use much less but have more space designated to SWAP. And using Linux for as long as I have, swap space is usually reserved when there is a huge increase in ram usage.

They can. Cali at least has a partial plan.

Hell even a city could.

Hawaii already does.

My programs think they are running on windows. They are running in proton.

Cant say im seeing it. Maybe hang out in different communities?

Love it

I’m not sure if the hard requirement of using openai is good for an open source projects. It requires a somewhat hidden closed source source for the main functionality.

GL! One of my favorite open source projects!

Calibre can also be a server. https://manual.calibre-ebook.com/server. I use it all the time with my library.

I use the Voice app on Fdriod but it doesnt do syncing that I know about. I fully recommend instead of using Audible.

If you dont own the files, then you dont really own the media.
