Ebooks: Ereader or phone?

I do most of the reading on my quite old Kindle Paperwhite.

When Amazon changed the rules about downloading your own ebooks, I installed KOReader on it.

Love the customisability I get, and integration with Calibre. I now sync my library and progress with my phone (where I also have KOReader installed) using Syncthing.

I've also switched from Goodreads to Hardcover (there is a KOReader plugin for it).

I prefer to read on the Kindle because it has 0 distractions and it's easier on the eyes.

FFmpeg to Google: Fund Us or Stop Sending Bugs

Reply in thread

If ffmpeg was not an open source project, and somebody submitted a super obscure ai surfaced bug

The bug would be fixed exactly never

I fail to see how funding them would change that

Sure, if we forget about specifics for a bit, in general terms it does sound reasonable. And they should be sponsoring ffmpeg anyway as they are using it.

However some bug reports should just not happen in the first place

The writing is kind of all over the place, so it's hard to say for certain.

El and Kali and all of their brothers and sisters were changed using Henry's blood.

Kay was assuming they could make more like them using their blood. They tried with Kali but failed. They know El is more powerful than Kali, maybe rivaling Henry. Thus, they hope they can make more using El's blood. They don't know for sure, but it's their best bet.
