@maj right into a puddle, 10/10, no notes πŸ‘Œ

For obvious reasons, I'm no longer buying e-books from Amazon. I found a bunch of nice DRM-free PDFs on Thalia, but now I'm considering a book that does have DRM (publisher's requirement, I guess).

Anyone has experience with de-DRMing Thalia books? (I think it's Adobe DRM, but not entirely sure.)

@organicmaps this sounds like a great opportunity to migrate to a non-US service πŸ€”

@andresmh @jbigham @bwaber wasn't it OpenAI who recently redefined AGI as "anything that makes us 100 billion dollars"? πŸ˜‘

Lots of yak shaving going on today.

This is brilliant. All hail the King's English.

@datarama @molly0xfff my friggin' Raspberry Pi can handle a database with 60,000 rows. πŸ˜‘ (Unless you do some nonsense triple join or so.)

@petejohanson Ooh, thanks, didn't know about that one yet. A bit pricey, but very promising... πŸ‘ (it does indeed tick all the boxes πŸ‘Œ)

I'm currently looking for a new keyboard that should have the following features:
* Bluetooth with support for multiple devices (at least 2)
* Built-in touchpad
* Reasonable key layout, not some "mobile" nonsense
* [optional but desirable] open firmware

I have 3+ different keyboards in my office already, but none of them checks all the boxes (either Bluetooth is super-glitchy, or the layout is braindead, or it doesn't have a touchpad, or...)

Suggestions _very_ welcome!

@andresmh @julian @barik Not mentioning people, true, but still flooding some very broad hashtags with content-free slop...

@azonenberg well thanks, now I got that melody stuck in my head for the rest of the day πŸ˜‘

@mikemccaffrey That may well be true... perhaps it's just that everyone is now busy with ass-covering instead of actual work? πŸ€”
