You misunderstood. It asks for your real name and your identification number.

Is actually great since it forces you to learn which saves you much more time in the long run.

It is great when you have time to learn, but when you are trying to troubleshoot while understand basically nothing of the wiki … it is not good.

It is most comprehended, but for newbie it is too comprehensive. Its overwhelming, I tried to troubleshoot why I boot to black screen even the installation said its successful and there’s no error. I saw solutions that want me edit grub, edit xorg … and some other file that I never understand.

I understand the wiki is very good and very important, its just not newbie friendly.

In China, 1gb cost 1RMB (1/7 USD).

NP, I guess I’ll just have to accept it (I only use it to convert ebooks to KFX format, it seems a bit overkill to have VM Windows just for that.)

Thank you for trying to help.

I am just testing things out, so I’m trying to install Kindle Previewer and Caesium image compressor. All install correctly, but crash upon execute.

This is the error for Kindle Previewer

A question regarding bottles, do I have to install dependencies in the settings? My exe all installed without error but can’t open.

I agree, the internet was still quite young in those days, I’m quite sure I wont be so open with internet access with my children (they are 7 and 2).

what kind of idiot parent lets an underage child on the internet unrestricted.

I’m 35, and I have been online pretty much unrestricted since I’m 11/12ish. But yes, I saw some shits.

A question, what tod do when the laptop is completely frozen, as in you can’t even move your mouse. Is the only solution to force shutdown?

I only use htop to kill process when it froze.

Been meaning to, but havent try yet.

Still bit a noob, I am wondering if I should also install calibre through bottles (I imagine bottles sets up some sort of sandbox that only those installed through it can use its files).

Sadly, KFX plugin does not work in Linux (it lacks Kindle Preview app)

That just seems to be a decent thing to do

Nevermind

… He’s still alive?

I have a CR48 from 2010 that is running arch linux, is slow but completely workable.

I love my kindles. I got the Kindle 3 Keyboard (dead battery and dead pixel), 1st gen Kindle Paperwhite (scratched screen, uneven lights), and Kindle Voyage (cracked screen, otherwise is perfect).

I don’t really mind its a closed system, I transfer my books via calibre anyways.

This is beautiful

I have mix feeling about this, I have many English podcasts that I would love to recommend to my non-english speaking friends, so I feel very excited about this idea. But again, I felt the podcasters are being abused in someway with this.
