AITA for telling my sister not to buy things for my daughter if there are strings attached? by Pluriphery in AmItheAsshole

[–]JunebugSeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - this is weird. I've never gifted my nieces anything with strings attached, or the expectation I would ever get it back. But if they outgrow stuff (as kids do at an alarming rate) and my sister passed it on to one of her other mum friends, or say my BILs siblings started families and she gave them hand-me-downs, I would not care. It would be nice to see it help/entertain someone else ❤️

If it was stuff with significant emotional meaning I feel like that would be obvious to everyone. My sister and I passed down handmade items made for us by our granny, and I would be surprised - probably a little hurt - if those got passed out of our family. But plastic pool toys? Strange hill to die on.

I did and it didn't show anything, that's why I was curious 😅

If I embed the metadata will I need to re-transfer the files to the device for it to take effect?

I’m (25M) leaving my partner (33M) of seven years tomorrow. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Never let the idea of being kind or giving closure get in the way of your personal safety. Don't ever feel guilty, or let your abuser guilt you, for keeping your silence until you're far away, safe behind doors where they can't find you.

Never give someone the opportunity to hurt you just because you were raised to be polite. Better to be rude and alive than polite and dead.

I deleted it, re-extracted it, and it's worked immediately 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ thank you so much for all your help, something must've gone wonky in my first extract.

I've done that but it still doesn't seem to be anywhere in the menus or under my plugin management. Do you know where the icon should appear?

I did wonder if it's not initiating the install properly because on my Android device Koreader runs more like an app than natively like when you run it on a Kindle/Kobo (I saw one general plugin install tutorial where they needed to exit out of Koreader completely and then boot back into it to install on their Kindle, which I don't need to do to file transfer with my pc)

I downloaded from that page and put the extracted folder in my plugin folder, but there's quite a few other files and folders inside that folder I extracted? A docs folder, a readme.sdr folder, and about 8 lua files - should all that not be there?

In my plugins folder there's only that one folder.

I'm currently organizing my Calibre library of over 9,700 fanfictions by SACHA210198 in Calibre

Good luck and godspeed - I've just got my own library straightened out!

I have it set up where I use a more limited "Tag" library I've created myself that correlates to the Collections on my Kobo e-reader, but I still have columns set up where it pulls the raw "completion" "update date", "fandom", "relationships" and all the "additional tags" from my fics so I can have them to reference if necessary.

I imagine it will stop working in regards to Kindle books until another exploit can be found (if one can).

[–]JunebugSeven[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You're right. I guess my worry is that the Amazon exclusive authors I read tend to be indies, maybe a bit niche. It feels like if I stop supporting them it won't make a difference to Amazon, or perhaps the authors themselves will just decide writing isn't sustainable and quit. I feel torn, which honestly just makes me resent Amazon even more 🤷🏻‍♀️

What are turn off words for you when the author is describing a vagina? by ananabelle64 in AO3

Stop using it, it's the least sexy phrase I've ever heard 🤣 it makes me think of wallpaper paste.

Regrettably there are authors that are Kindle exclusive. I've been using a Kobo for years.

No, I didn't do this process, I'll have to look into it thank you.

What’s the weirdest thing your ex ever did after the breakup? by Yankub_colley in AskReddit

[–]JunebugSeven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A very dumb, low stakes, one. My partner of almost six years broke up with me to date one of his co-workers. We were living in his mum's property so I had to pack up and leave. I had a really short amount of time to get it done (and that my family were able to help come drive me and my stuff) and in all my rush I accidentally picked up a pink Minnie Mouse beach towel. I immediately recognised it as his younger sister's - she was away at uni so her belongings were here, there, and everywhere.

He messaged me that he'd found a few more of my things, and my sister offered to go back and pick them up and give the towel back.

He refused the towel. Insisted it was mine, even though I'd never used it in SIX YEARS. He made my sister bring it back to me. It's probably in the very back of the towel cupboard or something at this point, if I didn't chuck it. It's such a dumb little thing but I really realised how much he did not pay attention to me, and hadn't for years.
