I think you’re projecting a little. People act like this no matter the field. We swim in the tech pool, so we mostly only see the shit floating in our pool.

I can assure you the neighbour’s pool also has their fair share of floaters.

Any type of bread following the same standard will fit into a standard toaster.

Ironically in your example, if there were icons on the right side of the cogwheel, as the page moves down the icons scroll up.

Imagine a piece of paper. If you pull the paper down, you’ll be scrolling “up”.

Au contraire, I think they should be calling themselves DoW. No more “defence” BS. It is, and always has been, about war.

Billions of your money? Yeah that’s going to fund wars. War on the whole world, war on their own citizens, WAR!

Haha I was fully expecting this comment when I wrote it. Hi fellow c/fuckcars lurker 👋🏽

I don’t see any future for seatbelts, and forcing such an ugly implement in cars might lead to problems.

Seatbelts will kill cars if it persists there long enough.

Personally, a few reasons.

• I don’t need to run 2 containers and >10GB. I could just install and run in 10 seconds.
• My whole library and metadata is self contained in a single dir. On a fresh OS install I could simply point Calibre to the dir, and off we go.
• A rich plugin ecosystem, including deDRM plugins.
• I can just ignore the AI stuff (for now, at least)
• I’ve used it for close to 2 decades. Familiarity is definitely a factor. And yes, it’s still as ugly as it was 20 years ago. But once you’ve set your workflow up, the UI just kinda melds to the background.

It is one of the ugliest, most complex to configure, pieces of software I’ve ever used. It’s also the best ebook management tool out there. I love Calibre.

I was thinking more along the lines of, "let people pirate. Here’s a megayacht’.

Everyone has a price. Maybe a superyacht or two from Gabe’s fleet?
