It’s terrible how companies like this can do anything they want with impunity.
This tool seemed so beneficial.
Let go and let entropy. 🌌

If this article is even moderately accurate, then this is hard to digest. I didn’t realize that Russian electronic warfare was so advanced and capable. It seems to be having a significant impact on Ukraine’s efforts and bodes very poorly for them. The article didn’t address how they can counter Russian EW capabilities, if at all. 😖

Yet something else to disable in Windows. I’m losing track of each thing at this point.
Trunk Monkey Mobile would have been better. 🐒
I honestly find this incredible, but yeah… I know people who enjoy being advertised to… and who like “shopping” even though they start out with nothing in mind. Advertising works on them and probably those spam emails I can’t believe people click, which only perpetuates the problem. And apparently it’s worth billions to keep up the commercialization.
Haha. Are you telling me that we all don’t mutually love these attempts to personalize advertisements? There’s nothing better than knowing our personal information is being used for our benefit this way. Look at films like Blade Runner. I can’t wait to have bright fluorescent ads on every corner and open space.
Without these things, how else am I going to know which medication I should be insisting my doctor prescribe me? And clearly this insurance company with the funny ad is totally going to be there on my side when something happens. That’s why they made the commercial, duh. So I would absolutely be certain I can trust them to quickly and fully process a claim.
There’s nothing cozier than the snug embrace of consumerism, where we find a peculiar warmth, as if cocooned in a comforter spun from the very fibers of advertising’s allure.
I love ads. I love what Microsoft and the likes are doing.

So weird that so much is integrated into a web browser.
I logged on to my father’s computer today to fix a few things for him and was immediately overwhelmed with all the Windows bloat. This includes copilot and… so… much… more… 😖
Company computing assets are managed. One normally doesn’t get to override IT policy without business justification.
I’ve been using LibreOffice for a number of years without issue. Literally takes care of all my word processing and spreadsheet needs. I don’t miss MS Office at all, which I use daily at work.
I vaguely remember what you’re referring to and being pretty frustrated about it. I can’t remember exactly what changed regarding clicking an emailed link. I simply don’t experience that any longer. Either Amazon stopped or I changed some setting somewhere that I’m not recalling off hand… 😬
Currently, I have calibre-web (and the windows client) set to use my email’s SMTP credentials. I then set the “sender” to an Amazon approved email. In my case, the email isn’t actually real. I just use a forwarder.
Make sure you add that sender email to the Amazon personal document approved email list.
The most recent bump I’ve had with Amazon is that they no longer accept mobi files. It’s no big deal though since they accept epubs without an issue.
This.
We each have an account. Login to the web interface. Choose the desired book. Click send. The epub is emailed to our Kindle.
Running calibre-web off a docker instance. Library is on my NAS.
I use the Window client to add books, handle conversions, and manage things since I have specialized plugins. You can read via the web app as well, but I prefer my ancient Paperwhite.
Appreciate the heads up. 😊
Thanks for this! I forwarded it on to a few little ones who I know really enjoy the show. 😊
Awesome! I’ve been traveling a lot and I guess I missed this!
Last I heard, Paramount ditched the show. And I just confirmed it’s no longer on their service.
Is Netflix really going to be showing Prodigy again or was that just added for fun?
That was fun, to thanks!
May it be so.
