I also found a way to compile the Python code into C (using Nuitka) to make it more performant, smaller in size. And the AppImage version is also done, except there are still some desktop integration issues, AppImageLaucher and other tools can't integrate it for some reason. Will figure out what's the issue. https://codeberg.org/fossery-tech/burner-todo (more FOSS news in comment) #WeeklyNews #OpenSource #FOSSNews #FOSS #OpenSourceNews #News #Blender #Calibre #HeliumBrowser #Transmission #BitTorrent #Bleachbit #LibreOffice #Ollama #OpenClaw #BurnerTodo #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #OpenPGL #Browser #OfficeSuite #Ebook #EbookReader #WebBrowser #Torrent #Gaming #Game #0AD #Widelands #FOSSGame #FOSSGaming #TodoApp #ContentCreation #Productivity #AIAgent #AgenticAI #FosseryTech

Several years ago, I started creating an archival library "time capsule" from RSS feeds with #Calibre. Each feed is converted into an ebooks. I have amassed over 250K ebooks from RSS feeds from news feeds, various blogs, etc. and it is an ongoing process and project. Although I read my favorite sources daily, I haven't come close to reading the vast majority of them but I feel it is my duty to do this for some reason, esp the news. I wonder what the legality of hosting them on the internet somewhere is. They come from public RSS feeds.

While it is fun having the progress shown as 3500 / 13488 with The Complete Wheel of Time ebook, I wanted to enjoy the individual covers as well. Luckily Calibre with the epub-split plugin made that rather painless, just some metadata adjustments. Also kudos to TOR publishing for intentionally providing a DRM-free epub, making this possible (without having to remove it beforehand) #book #ebook #epub #Calibre #TheWheelOfTime #WheelOfTime #Pocketbook
