Where do people who use kobo readers buy their ebooks? Is there a reliable non Amazon e-reader shop that sells from free books? (Besides humble store)

Thanks, I've been looking into this and it seems like you're probably on the money. When I get some time I'll mess with this.

This is so awesome. Hopefully you can combine this with VR for a really crazy computing experience lol

I have an oddly-specific networking question that I'm hoping to get solved (and would like to have Lemmy be the home of the solution, in case I stumble upon this myself.)

I have a device that needs to "phone home" on a weekly basis. This device needs to have a static IP in order to be "valid". On windows, I usually can get it to work by starting openvpn, plugging in the external device in question and "routing that" through Openvpn. You do this by simply connecting the external nic and then right click on the nic in the control panel and set the "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection" along with assigning the external device to the OpenVPN connection. This routes all internet packets from X device to the internet via the OpenVPN connection without a major problem. I should note that it's extremely fickle, and it hurts my ability to remote in the machine on occasion, so I'm looking to change it.

What I'd like on my linux system is to simulate the same setup, but with 1) a permanent "connection" to the openvpn end point that is always available but not used by most networking tasks on the computer (for example, browser will use standard ethernet connection) and 2) The external nic will automatically route itself through the OpenVPN server, acting as a "router" for a (singular) external device that needs to access the internet.

Is this possible? Are there any guides for setting up this kind of complex network setup? Is it possible to do without going crazy and making my computer a full-blown router (like, doing DHCP work and the like)?

What AI profits?

No, AI is killing the PC parts industry.

Sharing this as it was on my youtube feed and involves karting. I'll see you in the kart-o-sphere (or kart-o-ring?).

More cases of "rules for thee and not for me", of course. You won't see the DOJ arresting anyone in the Trump family making the same kind of bets.

If this guy's lawyer is smart about this, they should ask for discovery on specific instances of insider trading that we know about like the Iran bombing bets made on Kalshi or similar platforms. It would probably be a quick way to get the case dismissed or at least settled out.

I wish Europe would just embrace the fediverse. The techno oligarchs are not your friends and most of them are invested in the US.

"In principle I like being a democracy. But the practice of it? Nah, I'd rather we do secretive bullshit."

Neat, I'll keep this in mind next time the liberals are in power lol.

Electron is the only cross platform gui toolkit...

If you ignore QT, GTK and everything else.

I'm so glad that Microsoft makes an awesome cross platfor--- wait, no, but they contribute code to--- hmmm ... Hey, what does Microsoft do to make apps more portable again?

It's stupid as hell to share any personal information with a company that is interested in spying on you and feeding your data to the nearest advertiser they can find.

Like seriously -- are people using their brains or what?

The term "unalive" is so cringey yet dystopian that I don't know whether to feel embarrassed or concerned when I hear it.
