Honestly I kind of liked the eragon books though if asked I couldn’t say why.

The attempted movie adaptation was horrible though

I managed to do it somehow without a kindle but it was an absolute pain in the ass. For my first few books I had to download then using a specific old version of the kindle desktop app so that calibre was able to remove the encryption. Apparently the encryption used by the newer kindle desktop app is different.

For my next books that suddenly wasn’t enough and I had to use an old android app version in an emulator and get the books out of the hidden app storage using adb.

I’m never buying an ebook of amazon again if I can avoid it

Personally I didn’t have any problems with that yet fortunately.

My bigger problem right now is a bug that prevents me from copying stuff from the url bar when middle-click pasting is disabled in the KDE settings…

In X11 the bug doesn’t exist

There was more than one movie? I thought they gave up after the first

Economy of scale, right? ;D

Not OP but I’m curious about one thing I personally miss with kate.

Do you know if it is possible with kate to keep temporary text files open after closing the program the same way notepad++ can?

I used KDEConnect in the past but ran into issues where somehow media sent to my phone wasn’t saved somehow. Probably some permission issue but I didn’t manage to fix it. Also the windows client only allows selection of one file at a time.

Recently I’ve tried out LocalSend and found it a much smoother experience.

I love that they are still updating AoE2 (at least the latest remaster) with balance patches and new content despite its age

Does the skin effect apply here?
