Unrelated to TFA, this site is spectacular. I recommend any other HNer here to give a look to the posts in the "andinensis" section, where the author describes homesteading in a semi-remote area in Chile, and generating his own electrical power with a water stream that runs through his property.

It has been shared here before as well.

I think it does if the books are all in a same, unique folder. If they are scattered around your main/home books directory, it doesn't

I use the Project:Title[1] addon, I think someone else here on HN suggested it a few months ago. The only catch is that you need to update it manually each time after updating KOReader

I think this would make a very nice Youtube video, or ten. Quite niche, but interesting enough for anyone like me to watch.

Godspeed!

I guess this was a typo, but fits perfectly. Kudos!

I've been following this guy a couple of years now (as well as many other mentioned in the comments like LowTechMagazine, Simplifier, OSE, etc)

I always liked the WiFi catenaric (instead of parabollic) reflector for it's simplicity,though I think drawing parabolas shouldn't be that difficult either to get a more directional reflector

In my experience, you then need to activate it using real data from real people. I lent my data to a colombian colleague a couple of years ago, as he did not have a DNI yet.

Something I read here on HN some time ago and that can be of your interest: you can get specific Atom feeds from Youtube channels (only long format videos, only shorts, only live streams, only popular, etc)

Of note: Plasma Bigscreen was sort of revived and rejuvenated last year by a Plasma Mobile dev

The 101things radio stuff is super cool too!

You can read it in the Medium frontend scribe.rip, to avoid some Medium shenanigans. I do think bolding stays the same though, it seems to have lots of bolding. Weird style.

Hey, this sounds interesting! Is there any tutorial out there on how to make it work?

(2013) The $12 phone

As the other commenters, I liked the concept. I did the map, and got quite a few repeated answers.

I then did the ransom one, but I did quite well until I got definitely bored around round 70. I think 100 rounds are too much, at least for the daily game.

Nate Johnson, one of the devs at LineageOS, maintains some official and unofficial builds. You could go from scratch using a Radxa SBC, or try to get an older streaming device (like one of the previous versions of the Chromecast). Some of these older devices even got Widevine DRM still working after installing LineageOS, if you want to use a streaming service.

They should have partnered not only with Intel, but with Palm, RIM or whatever other then-giant to rival Android. Those two went their own ways with WebOS and buying QNX, so maybe they could have agreed to form a consortium for an open and interoperable mobile OS

Check on RSSGuard, I checked a few weeks ago after another reccomendation here, and the dev was working on importing the QuiteRSS sqlite db.

It seems he has already completed it? I'll try to migrate this weekend then https://github.com/martinrotter/rssguard/issues/1707#issueco...

Never implemented this by myself, but I've read in the past this post on using Prosody, by the guys helpong the Low-Tech Magazine blog to become a self-hosted solar-powered site.

Had to check, but it seems that KDE is "owned" (or legally represented and its trademarks owned by) a german nonprofit, KDE eV. Wouldn't there be a possibility for Riddell (or anuone in the community) to create a cooperative in Germany or any other part of the EU, just like the galician folks?

I use NeoLauncher for this same reason: sometimes I don't remember the name of whatever app I use once in a while (eg WLANScanner or Ning).

It's available on IzzyOnDroid, though I installed the GitHub release. It does have some bugs, every now and then it freezes and you need to go to the Apps submenu in Configuration to restart it.

There are a couple of Luci themes you can install

There's a playlist (xor a 5 minute summary video) of a guy going the Gingery route

It is! I remember using this (or SciDavis, a related project) a couple of years back in college. It was not as powerful as Origin 10 years ago, but it ran on Linux.

This is great for people who don't know nor want to learn to program.

Seems to work pretty well on Firefox for Android. Very impressive work!

Reminds me of the Nomadic Furniture book "cubicles". Here's an instructable showing something inspired by it.

As others here have already said, thank you for your book, and for having it for free on your website. After years of thinking about leraning to program, I finally started with you book a couple of years ago. It is so much fun, and it's been super helpful on my day to day job.

Greatly done by Standard Ebooks too, I guess for the aesthetic as well as for old paintings being in public domain.

You can check Open Source clones, inspired by, recreations of the engine, etc at OS Game Clones

I redirect to scribe, though that only works with medium posts

Thank you! I might give it a try to get some reading done on my phone
