I’m going to latch onto another part of what you said rather than focusing on trading or manifestation. What in the world do you do for fun? If you’re trading in any way that has the chance to make you a profit you’re already commits multiple hours a day to this if not a few hours a week (honestly you shoudn’t really be trading right now, you should, if you’re able, be saving most of your money you’re trading into an etf and just let it sit and accumuluate, but that’s beside the point), on top of learning dispatching (which I don’t know what you mean but that’s my own ignorance), and studying. Literally what do you do for fun that doesn’t put your money on the line? What do you do that makes you feel good as a person? Because I can tell you what’s on the other side of all this grinding you’re doing without having any time to enjoy yourself, and that’s depressed and burnt out, if you’re not already there.

I’ll checkout Calibre-web. It seems like it does a lot of what I need it to do!

Yeah, I get what you mean. And thanks. I’m going to give the rereading Project a chance to respond to my message, but after a few days I’m going to move forward. I’ve already gutted the AI features, I just need to fix what yanking that out broke and then fix the ui.

I mean, that’s a good point, but it’s a fundamental part of the Fee part of FOSS. I don’t “see” myself doing anything 5 years from now but it doesn’t necessarily mean it wouldn’t be worth the effort. But you also have a good point. They do seem dead, and I don’t want to add another dead project on top of the others. But I am pretty serious about having calibre-like thing that won’t incorporate AI. Does that mean I should start a new thing, or quasi-robinhood calibre into a new thing. I don’t know yet, but I do get your point.

Thanks for this and I see arcalibre too. I’m a bit worried that neither have updated in a number of months now, but I’ll see if I can help out there before continuing on with my own thing.

I loved Calibre before all the AI stuff. I’ve decided to fork the project and gut out all of the AI features. I’m tenatively calling it Calibre- (Calibre minus) just for the giggles. Not sure if other people care about this or not, but an AI-gutted calibre is coming.

I’ve never been much a video tutorial person for this kind of thing. I’ve learned (and continue to learn) on a combination of trial and error, looking at the source of other peoples’ websites, and W3 Schools. Here’s the documentation/tutorial stuff they have on CSS.

That being said, I’m happy to do it for you for no cost (I’ve already got my plug with a Jellyfin server)

I’ve gotten into website making. Like old-school personal website making, not the boring corporate template nonsense. It’s really been a joy to go back to html and css (and JavaScript sometimes, I guess) and make something

I don’t think I’ll ever be done with the internet. But it’s becoming clear to me that the kind of internet experience that I want (no ads, free and open source software, minimal mega-corpo investment in said software) will necessarily require more from me (more technical understanding, more configuring, &c).
