@yogomagpie my job recently updated all our staff computers to windows 11.... hell on earth!!! as for linux, i'm enjoying it a lot so far. biggest issue i ran into while installing was not being able to find the special key to boot into the BIOS menu for my specific laptop (f12 lol) but other than that and a few things, it's pretty straight forward and customizable! best of luck!!!

i'm getting my assessment soon too!! it's so sick seeing how many cool interests you're picking up and learning, good luck with everything :)
hey frankie, i am early and very online (10 seconds ago)... your library has inspired me to make my own. although i have a question, are you worried about potential takedown requests? i didnt feel comfortable uploading some academic texts for example because it was super hard to find and i was worried about publishing companies' reactions
@limovars i fear takedown requests immensely! i know copyright nonsense is a big thing right now especially with the internet archive and z-library always on the verge of being shut down. i knew going into this project that issue might present itself but wanted to be able to give people access to these resources that have such high chances of disappearing given the state of the world rn.
@limovars didn't realize there was a character limit LOL but i am excited to see your library come together + am hoping for the best for both (and all) shadow libraries on the internet
aaron swartz lives on in our hearts. thank you so much for the reassurance, and i hope the same as well<3
@limovars will have to add his manifesto when i return home! have just discovered archive.org has been blocked at work smh
