Koreader is pretty intimidating at first but once you dig into its features and know what's going on, it's pretty easy to navigate into the menus. It require some time to invest at first, but after that it's really "set and forget" with some lovely features and power to customise absolutely everything. I love the statistics wallpaper that shows you how much you read previous 7 days, per day, and the fact that you can set every book parameter as default, making every epubs looking the same, something I've never been able to achieve with stock Kobo, where I absolutely hated beginning a new book and discover huge fonts, weird margins, and tiny line-spacing, that I had to set again.

The joy of opening a folder and type / to search a file inside.


Seems like too much time was spent on the concept and website and not that much on the product. I can't help myself but always think those projects are too marketed and engineered to be honest. Film scan should be simple and straight to the point, we don't need this Apple aesthetics and ultra marketing.

"Designed by photographers, for photographers." Nice. Would love to see your pictures then.


I whole heartly agree, especially

Without any samples it’s hard for a $999 kickstarter project, considering a Epson V750 scanner costs much less than that but already provides great quality and supports more formats


Maybe a mirrorless, a Macro lens, and the Valoi adapter. This is what I use now after having painfully used a Flatbed Epson for years. This set up is fast and sharp. Best of both worlds.


Never used OS/2 Warp. Is the Document shredder icon the recycle bin ? Love it.


Yes and no. It was a permanent delete, no visible GUI with deleted files. But there was an actual UNDELETE command that could be used to recover files (or not)

Thank you for the explaination. Yeah, that make sense. Never tried to get back stuff from shredder but that must be challenging.


Punk is still strong. The internet destroyed Geek tho.


Fun fact, what is today perceived as a historical and intense rivalry between the Paris and Marseille football teams was actually completely made up and orchestrated by Bernard Tapie and the TV channel Canal+ (then recent owner of PSG) in the 1990s.


Great video about the lack of local rivalries in French football:

It was very tricky to get the effect on the 3DS but already way better on the New 3DS, so i can definitely think it would work flawlessly on such a powerful device as iPhone.


Debian. I’m not trolling, it’s easy to install, very stable, and KDE, while allowing everything to be customized, is awesome out of the box. It’s way more oldschool than what I’m seeing of Zorin there but for the oldschoolers the feeling of owning his computer again has no price. I’ve been a pop!os user too for quite a long time and it’s very polished, but too fisherpricish for a desktop to me.


I don’t think distros with older kernels should be generally suggested to newbies who can have a smattering of hardware. Unsupported hardware can be such a showstopper for new users.


Because some sellers don’t respect sales embargo and/or some clients have some privileges.
