  • Man, I miss this internet.

  • Does anyone have book recommendations for balancing life and media consumption?

    Jump

  • Maybe not exactly this, but I recently read How To Break Up With Your Phone and really loved it. Short read, and even if you don’t follow the whole 30-day routine she outlines (I didn’t), it’s full of great prompts/thoughts on more responsibly looking at your consumption habits and I came away with several practices that have made a big difference for me.

  • Amazon will remove the option to download/transfer Kindle e-books via USB by February 2025

    Jump

  • Correct. If you do it now, there’s a notice about this feature going away.

  • My favorite Calibre thing was when the creator was interviewed and asked about the common complaint that Calibre is ugly and he was basically like “actually it’s not.”

  • Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books

    Jump

  • I noticed this feature wasn’t available for my Colorsoft and asked support about it. They assured me it would be added later. This is exactly what I expected to happen.

  • Did UCLA Just Cure Baldness?

    Jump

  • Same. I feel like I’d look so weird with hair now.

  • Elon Musk Is President

  • Hopefully more articles like this come out so Trump gets rid of him because his ego can’t handle it.

  • What are your favorite saved info/comments from internet

    Jump

  • Same. Saving this.

  • Google Will Update Gulf of Mexico to 'Gulf of America' in Maps

  • I’ve made a couple of Firefox extensions just for personal/fun stuff, might give this a shot.

  • Google begins requiring JavaScript for Google Search

    Jump

  • Hah yeah I guess I combined those confusingly. It was both of those things hitting around the same time, I switched to FF and DDG.

  • Google begins requiring JavaScript for Google Search

    Jump

  • I switched to DDG recently due to the manifest v3 changes and AI junk and have been really liking it. It feels like what Google used to be when it was good.

  • Help. I'm stuck. I need to go to the toilet. "nooope hooman (stretches out), you stay riiiiight heeeere (yawn, smeck smeck)"

  • It’s now illegal for you to move, so it’s been nice knowing you.

  • You should really consider professional help (if you want to change). Reading your comments, venting to random people on Lemmy isn’t going to change anything for you.

  • Disqualifying yourself (and others) before you even try to meet someone isn’t going to help. Just try to talk to people and show genuine interest in what they have to say, you’d be surprised.

  • It happens. I met my last partner when I went to the bar to read my book and she commented on my Kindle.

  • Could just be dumb. My cat has claws and would be yelling for help to get out.

  • best alternative to GoodReads?

  • I’ve been using Storygraph for a couple of years now and love it. The only feature it’s missing for me that Goodreads has (although its implementation is awkward anyway) is the ability to add a note to a book you haven’t started yet.

    My workaround for now is a tagging system with friends names like #recommendation #recommendation-amy and if I want some more detailed info, I made a custom shortcut to transform a Storygraph share URL into a note in my book notes folder in Obsidian.

  • WordPress.org statement threatens possible shutdown for all of 2025 – Computerworld

  • I build Craft CMS sites at work. It’s a paid product, but has a free version with some minor limitations and is open source. It’s fantastic.
