What's the best reader for KOReader? I'm in the market for a new one and would like one that handles everything a kindle does not.

To this excellent list, I would humbly add Bhavana: https://bhavana.org.in/

Hmm I couldn't get it to work with video chat so I should try again

To clarify, I had nothing to do with the making of this service. Discovered it last night, loved it, and decided to share.

So sad that netflix doesn't have it any more

This vaguely sounds like MIDI to me

I hope we get group video calls and video calls on desktop soon

Welcome to you who have come to zombocom!

"you won't kill me out of some misguided sense of self righteousness and I won't kill you because you're just too much fun"

I had the same thought

Yeah I agree. Zulip is really good. It's a nice mix of email+chat. I much prefer it over slack.

Unless (like me) you write your papers in org-mode too!

I agree. emacs-jupyter is great but I'm eagerly waiting for jupyter notebook server support since my work is on remote clusters now. For local use, it's pretty great.

Oh man, that's basically org-babel [0] but with working jupyter server support!

I recently discovered that Umatrix has something like this. One of the buttons gives you the ability to click to enable common subsets e.g. "GitHub" , "reCAPTCHA" etc.

This is so annoying! Do you know what needs to be whitelisted?

And sometimes you need eagles

I think they need to go through this: http://www.samosapedia.com/by_language/english

Great way to timepass btw.

Mine was unbearably slow even with Cyanogen installed. How is it working out for you?

From a single datapoint, senior citizens prefer speaking into the phone instead of typing out long messages.

I use Qalculate which is awesome and has similar features.

I have this one and the thing that sticks up pokes my wrist all day. I don't think a human tested it for any amount of time.

Is there one that can do matrix digital rain like effects?

Ugh, just hope it doesn't spark another "war against christianity" thing

Caravan is so great. How does fountain ink compare?

As heads up for non-Indians, they have occasional articles that are not purely focused on India.

Win tree style tabs you can autohide. Indo that to reduce distractions

Emacs org-mode HTML export + ob-ipython could do it for you, with some configuration...

Anecdata and not what you're asking but relevant.

I saw a talk by David Battisti (Univ Washington professor). He had attended a FAO meeting about climate change and agriculture.

It looks like it is increasingly hard to engineer wheat/rice varieties that can reach peak yield with rising temperatures. The outlook for say, Indian river production, is not good at all.

From what I remember, we are currently in the temperature sweet spot for rice/wheat production.

If someone knows a primary source for this kind of thing, please comment

Re: HW Acceleration

Is this going to work at all on Linux?
