Is there an historical reason why female formal dresses have a huge variety of styles compared to male ones where the only acceptable style is jacket with pants? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Yeah I posted my question a few hours before that was posted, very cool!

Sorry man, english is not my first language so sometimes I make mistakes.

But I searched online and it seems that it's not totally wrong to use "an" in front of historical, especially in informal writing.

Best RSS Reader for Linux? Bonus if it has PDF/epub export in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Wow I'm already using Calibre but didn't know about that feature! Awesome, will look into it, thanks!

Yeah I thought about the print to pdf feature, hopefully though there are better alternatives. Thanks for the suggestion I will check the extension!

Right now I use Read You on my phone to get RSS feeds and I read articles on my browser but I want to cut the time I stare at my phone throughout the day so I came up with this system:

Once a week I will look at all the feeds I follow on my PC RSS reader, select the ones I want to read during the next week and save them / export them (possibly in PDF or ePUB?) so that I can put them on my old Kindle (that has no internet access) and read them only using the kindle during the week.

This will drastically reduce the time I use my phone to first scroll and select articles and then to actually read them. Looking at a screen all day for work and also looking at a screen (phone) in my free time is not good for me and I want to change that.

If no RSS reader has that option, does anyone know of another program or firefox extension that would let me "export" web pages as pdfs or epubs?

Most people want to be special or unique but what are things in which no one wants to be special or unique? (lemmy.ml)
 

I'll start with: medical conditions, everyone would prefer to have an average well known and curable disease than a special case or a unique one

Kindle's screen is partially frozen with the screensaver, the rest of the screen works normally. Already reset it and factory reset it, does anyone know if I can save it somehow? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] linucs@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah I've already jailbroken this one. I'll probably replace the screen as someone else suggested, there's a very nice ifixit tutorial

First of all, I know this is not the kind of questions that usually are done in asklemmy but I don't know where to ask, sorry folks.

It's a 5th generation kindle and I really loved reading on it. :(

Bonus question if the kindle is doomed: best e-ink reader on the cheaper side? I don't want anything super powerful or fancy, I just want to load my collection with calibre and read on it. - bonus points if it's a libre and or open source friendly.

How easy is it to switch back to windows? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Thanks, appreciate it!

[–] linucs@lemmy.ml 12 points 5 months ago (4 children)

I know it's not what you're asking but switching back is truly horrible, I have to use w11 at work and I hate every second of it. One drive shoven down your throat, Xbox stuff wants to install something everytime I update, installing stuff from random exes found on websites (I know the store exists but it sucks if your needs are not "I want to install candy crush"), changed something in your path variable? Reboot! Wtf? I really hope microsoft abandons windows in favour of its cloud apps for people who need it and lets Linux distros rule the desktop world
