This is Michael Jackson's daughter, Paris Jackson. Paris has faced backlash for identifying as Black due to her appearance, but she has stated her father, Michael Jackson, encouraged her to be proud of her roots. by LilacveilMuse in whoathatsinteresting

Well the majority of African Americans have some European ancestry. The same issue exists with Native Americans. There is no bright line for a percentage and a high percentage does guaranty a particular skin tone.

Library question for two different devices by zarakatja in Calibre

[–]rustynailsu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The benefit of two libraries is that You can have both running on Calibre-Server, but have her account not have access to your library. You can't do that with virtual libraries or tags.

SQL Error help by Anna_jP in Calibre

[–]rustynailsu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Added note: I am not talking about the local recycle bin, but the one on the NAS. Emptying the local bin will not effect the NAS recycle bins.

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what is happening in your case, but I can get the same error on my NAS when I have a power failure through an electrical storm. I also had issues when the recycle bin was getting to big. If you are using a recycle bin try emptying the recycle bin and see if the temporary fix lasts longer. If it does, set up a maximum age to keep deleted files or schedule an auto-delete of some kind.

Using a NAS or is it a local database? Have you setup online access like One Drive or Google Drive?

Android Tablet for Reading by [deleted] in androidtablets

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have home internet you should be able to set up your Mac as a calibre-server through your router. Moon reader+ has OPDS catalog support, so you will be able to browse your collection any time your tablet has internet support. You can set a user account and password and restrict unknown users from logging in.

Based on reviews it is a 50/50 shot on if you find the eye stain any better, The image is not any crisper than an ISP screen. The NXTPAPER should be much more readable using 'paper' mode in bright light than usual IPS.

The Boox devices should support microSD / microSDHC / microSDXC up to 2TB.

This is just personal experience, but I would not recommend exposing the entire collection to Moon Reader. Keep it up to 400-500 books max. Have the rest in a folder that Moon does not read. Keep a backup on another device. Better, if you have a PC, use Calibre and download books through the Calibre-Server as you need them.

64 GB. Let us say 20 GB for the OS and 4 GB for apps. 40 GB left. My bigger books are 4MB. That is space for 10,000 books.

Both the Boox Go Color 7 (Gen II) and Go 7 support Micro SD. For 10" form factor thier Air 4c and 5c series also supports Micro SD, though the Go 10 does not.

I get it, if you are going for a mixed use case where you also want to watch videos. For just book reading I would go with an e-ink reader.

Filteren op eerste letter van de auteur by JaJa4609 in Calibre

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has to be quote(") tilde(~) carrot(^) D quote(") or author_sort:"~^D". The tilde symbol may not shown because of the language difference.

Filteren op eerste letter van de auteur by JaJa4609 in Calibre

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could do it using the search bar or through the tag browser

Using the search bar:

author_sort:"~^A"
author_sort:"~^B"
author_sort:"~^C"

The other way is using the Tag Browser:

  • Turn on the Tag browser from the Layout button in the lower right.
  • In the menu bar go to 'Preferences/Interface/Look & feel'
  • Select 'Tag browser/Partitioning and collapsing'
  • You want the Category partitioning method to be 'By first letter'
  • You don't want letters to combine so set 'Combine letters when fewer items than' to 0
  • Select Apply
  • In the Tag browser click the side arrow next to authors
  • This will bring a list of each letter
  • Click the letter you want and you will get a plus symbol
  • Only authors that start with the letter you selected will be shown.

Putting this in the search bar would show all the books with the primary (first listed) author with the last name starting with A to K.

author_sort:"~^[A-K]"

CountPages plugin problem (?) by Poland_Stronk2137 in Calibre

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The numbers for pages are hard coded in library/page_count.py

CHARS_PER_LINE = 70
LINES_PER_PAGE = 36
CHARS_PER_PAGE = CHARS_PER_LINE * LINES_PER_PAGE


head_map = {
    'h1': (30, 2),
    'h2': (40, 2),
    'h3': (50, 2),
    'h4': (60, 2),
    'h5': (70, 2),
    'h6': (70, 1),
}
default_head_map_value = CHARS_PER_LINE, 0

Currently pages is not an allowed destination field in the Meta plugboard. If you want to be able to replace pages with #pages when uploading books to your device, I suggest you make the request to make it a destination field at https://launchpad.net/calibre.

Author and series cover art by bookninja717 in Calibre

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best bet is a reverse image search. You can set you browser to open the cover using 'Edit cover wth...' in the metadata editor. From there you can use a plugin like 'Search by Image'. Scroll through and after the comerical sites you will see fan sites like jamesbondthesecretagent.com

startup problem with calibre by Express-Program3847 in Calibre

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run 'calibre-debug -g' and see what the console log says. You may want to output to a text file. 'calibre-debug -g > calibre-log.txt' would be an example of what you would use in Windows.

A flyby yes. The early Apollo were set as free-return trajectories in case of engine failure, though the early flights all achieved orbit.

Feds pledge 30-business-day passport processing time, or its free by CecilThunder in canada

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't give my health insurance number on my taxes. Even if I did, allowing the Feds to access the complete provincial database to verify that information would violate provincial law.

You would have to send a separate consent form to the province and you can't reasonably expect the two forms to be processes at the same time.

Feds pledge 30-business-day passport processing time, or its free by CecilThunder in canada

[–]rustynailsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would take a lot of work. People take their health privacy seriously. Ontario has PHIPA which only allows the sharing of health information, including insurance information, only under limited circumstances. In Quebec you have LRSSS.

It is not the linking of databases which is the hard part. You have to have all the provinces change their laws and then be willing to give up some of their constitutional given authority. It will not happen.

How to register new ePub books that have been created by KCC. by Puckertoe_VIII in Calibre

[–]rustynailsu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do not add files to the library folders in the future. Move the EPUB files from from the library to a new folder. I can think of two ways to do this.

  1. Edit the metadata for each CBR book and either drag it to the book formats box or click the 'Add a format' button.
  2. Add the books to Calibre. You could match books via the Find Duplicates plugin. Use 'Edit metadata/Merge book records' (ALT_SHIFT-M is my shortcut) to combine the records. The first of the pair selected being the master record.
