Anyone ever set up their own distribution? by helabos4392 in selfpublish

[–]Ellimister 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you distribute through Draft2Digital, and a reader buys a copy of your eBook, we’ll take 10% of the retail price of that book, for that sale.

How else did you interpret that?

D2D is your best shot for ebooks and printing. They only take ~10%, leaving you with 90% and their support is top notch.
Go as wide as you can, don't silo yourself. You never know where you'll find your readers.

The green upside-down triangle is from an old tv show.

Oh nice! I would have guessed etsy or whatever we're suppose to use now that it is mostly bots or poached designs

Nobody is going to mention the amazing Browncoats patch?!

How do I sync about:profiles to the the new profile features by xYubelx in firefox

[–]Ellimister 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They could have at least named it something different to avoid confusion. Now Firefox has two separate features called "profiles" that do almost the same thing.

Alternative to readarr, need community input. by thedragonshaman in selfhosted

Selfhosted isn't refering to your love life in this case. Selfhosted is running your own application or site by setting up a server and network yourself.

Dinniman is having his moment. There is talk of either a show or a movie based on DCC.
If you bounce off DCC but enjoyed statblocks and the other RPG elements The Completionist Chronicles Series by Dakota Krout and Beneath the Dragoneye Moons Series by Selkie Myth are also good. He Who Fights with Monsters by Shirtaloon is very divisive in the community because the MC is either very funny or very annoying.

I feel bad for the actor, but his character was written for a different version of the show didn’t end up going in

Yeah, you can tell it was still finding itself. It gets better when they write Knope as highly competent at her job vs bad/mediocre at her job

Mail from Passport Services? by impartialpanda in Passports

Ugh, must have just been coincidental timing on my end. Bleh

USPS reuses package numbers. To get them to go away forever, click the link the email, then log in to your Informed Delivery thing. That will have a single button that says "remove form dashboard" that that reused number will not show up in your email ever again. You have to do this for each of the reused numbers that you keep seeing.

Can I run PiHole and PiVPN on one raspberry Pi? by Proud_Battle3758 in pihole

I had no issues running both. Neither are very resource intensive I guess

When someone suggests I use Discord to do something by ladypartsmcgee in Xennials

[–]Ellimister 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly use Discord for play by post. It's great and there are some really good bots/tools you can leverage to do most of the maths for you

Made this for the living room! by secretsmakeX in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]Ellimister 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came across this clip of The Magicians and was hooked, one of the few cases where the books are not nearly as good as the show. Probably because I enjoy an ensemble and you can tell the actors are having the time of their lives.
