Crickets is a good alternative. Especially when sprinkled on avacado toast.

Thanks for the link. Yeah, my server is old. COPS is old, but still works great for me. .

Calibre has built in server, but while running server (last I checked) it locks the db so you can't do much with the Gui, can't add books etc. Also I'm already running a a web server with php so it's more efficient just to slap the COPS web app there rather than run yet another server.

"In the non-violent condition, however, participants with higher scores in Machiavellianism had a higher increase in cortisol" - linked study

So people trying to be manipulative bastards in 'nice' games increase thier stress? Interesting.

Unfortunately the source study appears to be paywall and not yet on sci-hub, so don't know what specific games they used. As to how they define Machiavellianism, I assume something toke this:

"In the field of personality psychology, Machiavellianism is a personality trait characterized by interpersonal manipulation, indifference to morality, lack of empathy, and a strategic focus on self-interest." - Wikipedia

Similarly I use COPS (php calibre front-end)... But with no users or auth. If you can guess the URL you are in! Exciting.

Currently have six apps installed and periodically jump between them. But for some time now I have unexpectly found myself mostly using Voyager. I just love poking the eyeball?

Aves is really good. Used Simple Gallery Pro for years and it was great. But switching to Aves is painless for me.

AppStream makes machine-readable software metadata easily accessible. It is a foundational block for modern Linux software centers, offering a seamless way to retrieve information about available software, no matter the repository it is contained in. It can provide data about available applications as well as available firmware, drivers, fonts and other components. This project it part of freedesktop.org.

It works in the current Firefox for Android beta version.

If just annotating, I'd also suggest Okular. It's pretty good at notes, highlighting, etc.

The free version of MasterPDF (as available via AUR) is fully functional, but it will add watermark if you modify any PDF page contents (and maybe other conditions).

MasterPDF Editor is quite good. In the past I found the windows keygen works with linux version. You have to block it from accessing internet though, or it will phone home to verify. This was a while ago I used it, so my info may be slightly out of date. Here's one way to block it from having internet access, start with this command: bwrap --bind / / --unshare-net masterpdfeditor5

That's great that these MPs want to educate themselves. They could learn a lot. By "compel" I'm sure they mean something like "inspire" these people to come and share their experience and research with them in a respectful philosophical exchange. And by "defend" they are probably thinking of the clever Socratic traditions of inquiry.
