The ‘small caps’ really gave it away to me but I wasn’t familiar with which book - thank you! The Death books were always very humanizing in an interesting way, His scenes were always my favourite.
Sounds like they meant that for chat GPT…
So, dude makes art on the internet and wanted to use his output to create a revenue stream for himself? Shocking, how dare he. Randall Munroe got popular doing xkcd, and now he’s written books just to further make a name for himself. A damning indictment.
It’s like he’s a real life Zaphod Beeblebrox, only far, far worse.
Good evening. Tonight’s nightmare/night terror is brought to you by erev@lemmy.world.
Stock android without an unlocked bootloader will not give you access to the hosts file, and there shouldn’t be a firewall you don’t know about. Can you run a vbox or live USB on another machine on your network to see if it will see the server?
I just saw you already answered about the same gateway and mask. Hm. I’m thinking there’s probably a janky setting on your router, that’s the only place I can think of that might have a poorly configured or unconfiugred firewall. Especially if it works on the cellular using the VPN.
Good luck with it, I’m sorry I don’t have the exact answer!
Edit - just saw your edit. Computing is like that sometimes! Glad you got it working. 👍
You could try changing your host server’s IP address and see if it still has the same issue (maybe it’s added to a hosts file, or perhaps you installed no root firewall?) Can you ping 192.168.68.106 from your server? Not sure if ICMP echo traffic would be blocked by Android however.
Do both your server and phone have the same gateway/subnet mask?
Reminds me of when I aliased ‘man’ to ‘rtfm’
No, unless you consider manual csv.
There is a Web app that runs nicely in Firefox.
Unfortunately I have tried FOSS for this too, but have only been able to get all my boxes ticked (pardon the expression) using TickTick - I love it, but it is of course premium and proprietary and
“clipped” - you just reminded me of that episode of House, where the clinic patient (tw: gross) has been using his toenail clippers to trim his nose hair, and he developed a fungus.
PSA - Buy a trimmer specific for that purpose.
Not cromulent enough.
If it doesn’t have to be FOSS, I got the paid-once version of Today Weather, you can choose multiple data sources and it works with lots of countries, includes radar, windy.com, pollen count, Sun and moon rise and set, air quality, and is very pretty.
You’re looking for the Python interpreter as Python does not compile (unless you want to get pedantic about .pyc files). Here’s probably your best resource - https://opensource.com/article/20/8/python-android-mobile
Mvp comment there. I checked mine and I am in the US, on a phone I originally bought on credit. I do not have that app installed. Go figure. 🤷♂️
Definitely worth checking out your app list to make sure. I wonder if it accidentally came downstream from AOSP into the alt ROMs, and that’s why it’s not in my stock, proprietary, US market, flagship Google pixel device.
The least annoying reader on Android I’ve found is moon reader pro. It feels a lot worse to me than maple reader on iOS though.
Try Librera from F-Droid. I only wanted a pdf reader, and got that and an epub reader/ebook manager too. Apparently it’s also good for music manuscript too but I haven’t used it for that.
Not what you asked for, but if you’re interested at all in digital audio books, I cannot recommend highly enough Chirp Books. They use a flash sale kind of model, and sometimes the author you’re interested in has their books at 90% off for like 30 days, and it cycles on rotation. You do need their proprietary player app to listen, but you can download the audiobooks to your device for offline listening.
For actual ebooks, you could look into your local library, and what schemes are available for ‘digital lending’. Some platforms exist that let you loan movies, games, stream music and download ebooks using your local library card.
