Her remarks were straightforwardly true. A Jew, an Irish person, a Traveller and a Black person walk into a bar. Who gets racially profiled before they’ve even ordered a drink?

Yes Jews and Irish people and Travellers will likely experience racism at times throughout their lives. Only Black (or brown) people will experience racism just existing in a white society, just walking down the street, regardless of their clothing or their speech or their cultural practices.

It’s like, women experience sexism always. Gay men only experience homophobia in contexts where their sexuality is known. Visible minority status is a thing.

I’ve been enjoying Kagi, although it also proxies google and others, and you have to pay for it, and I was dismayed to read on Lemmy recently that the CEO may be a sea lion. So yeah, the search for good search continues I suppose

I was pleasantly surpsied by how much audio has improved on Linux when I came back to it this year with Ubuntu studio. Reaper or Bitwig are the way to go. Plugins are the main problem, bridging works OK apparently, but there are some decent native options too

Yeah, you don’t even have to jailbreak it, you can just install it alongside the kobo software, then you can keep both. It’s a bit fiddly to set up but not too bad https://github.com/koreader/koreader/wiki/Installation-on-Kobo-devices

Koreader is available from the Play store if you have an android phone, you can try it out first. Its very customisable, I spend hours tweaking the settings because that’s my idea of fun 😂

I’ve got a Hisense A5 and reading is surprisingly nice on it. Although this looks even smaller?

Also regarding the overall idea - just get a Kobo and put Koreader on it, then sideload any book format you like.

Hmm worrying. I switched to Fastmail too and use a lot of their ‘masked emails’. No problems so far, touch wood

Also Renoise (also not FOSS,. but good)
