Yeah it does sound like a massive pain 😅 so I can totally see the logic in "outsourcing" that DRM removal work to people running Windows/macOS who don't need to fiddle with wine!

@nicksellen ooh, I've also had some experience with adobe DRM - did you use calibre (with plugins), or something else?

Girlfriend drew this :)

@nicksellen @redoak @michel_slm @wooster sounds good to me!

It's been heartening to come across so many #blacklivesmatter banners across documentation sites for web development tools. A huge number of developers will be hitting these sites countless times daily to look things up during work — I've been one of them!

To highlight a few:

I love this. I think it solves the problem of #bookmarks for me. Links to handy tools can live in my knowledge base, and links to blogs that I don't want to forget about can go in here, surfaced in my browser start page every so often.

Fascinated by this #emacs package for controlling #spotify...

Unfortunately, I can't seem to get it working. Not sure I'd use it regularly even if it did work, but I'd love to give it a spin!
