You can have calibre auto import from a folder. Though be careful because it deletes them from that folder (you might want to do single direction sync into that folder).

And if you share the db with calibre-web or have some other sync method that works, you should be good to go.

Yes, they share the database. Yes, I add the books to calibre. I think I have it as read only for calibre-web.

Regarding overcomplication, I admit the initial setup took a while. But I’ve had it running for a couple years now with no major issues.

There’s a docker that essentially sets up a web VNC for Calibre. I do this for file conversion, DRM removal (only books I buy), etc.

Then I use Calibre-web for the OPDS server and nice web UI.

Honestly, this whole thing surprises me. I have a lot of respect for Ars Technica. I hope they clean this up and prevent further issues in the future.

I’ve been looking into this as well and just bought my first components.

I’m trying Meshtastic first and then will try Meshcore.

What does everybody think of Reticulum Network and RNode? It honestly seems superior conceptually to Meshtastic/Meshcore, but I’m not sure how good it is in practice or if anybody is actually using it.

Nice, I’ll take a look. How is the mobile experience?

Yeah, no problem.

This is my first attempt at posting a comment with pictures, but hopefully these show up:

Yes. When I tried it, it was not very stable and the shortcuts didn’t really work on mobile. But I know a lot has changed, so I’ve been meaning to go back and give it another shot.

Backlinking is when you link to a page, it links back.

For example, if I have a daily journal, I can say Fixed a problem with my [[Raspberry Pi]] setup... and then a few weeks later I can say Found a new use for [[Raspberry Pi]]..., etc.

Now when I go to the Raspberry Pi page, it shows me a list of times I’ve linked to the page and the context.

I use this all the time with Logseq, but I find Logseq pretty unpolished, infrequently updated, etc., so I’m always on the lookout for something nicer.

I’m getting a Cloudflare error trying to access your demo site.

Also, do you support back linking? That’s a feature that’s very important to me.

I finally got around to setting up my internal services with TLS. It was surprisingly easy with a Caddy docker image supporting Cloudflare DNS challenge.

I did this because various services I use are starting to require https.

Now everything is on a custom domain, https, and I can access it through Tailscale as usual.

Azure is not Entra. AAD became Entra. They did it because AAD was becoming less about Azure and covering more things than directories. So a rebranding made sense.

It’s a pretty dumb name, though. It doesn’t really mean much when you hear it, and it sounds too similar to other common words.

Finamp is great.

This is my favorite of the thread.

You can even call one Host, haha.

I wonder if they are preparing to stop using it. That could be a benign reason for the change in wording.

the AI that wrote the article

The linked article is by Dan Goodin from Ars Technica. He’s not immune to mistakes, but he’s been writing good articles about security for years.

Can we please not accuse everybody of being AI just because they made a mistake?

So this whole post is an advertisement, then.
