Which Google lens work? And take a picture of each page and feed it to the Google translate engine. It might be the easiest way.

You skipped over the part where you attempt to plug it in, flip the USB connector attempt again, flip it again, and finally it goes in.

Coincidentally, I speak English, French and Japanese, and am learning Spanish (and I learned German and Sesotho in the distant past). I cheated, however all except Spanish were learned at least partially by immersion in places where they speak it.

I have had nicks in my windshield due to gravel thrown up by vehicles traveling in the opposite direction.

Without the manufacturer’s drivers, I couldn’t even print a page of text.

It’s a Brother B&W laser with integrated scanner. About 6 years old, so it should be fully supported. We can’t view toner levels or scan from the printer (press a button on the printer to start a scan and have it automatically accepted by the computer. I have installed the separate driver for this functionality, but it isn’t working).

We haven’t yet tried some features like double-sided printing.

I installed Mint on my wife’s computer last week, and we have had problems getting the printer to print, and then to scan. I’ve installed the manufacturer’s driver a couple of times and it seems to do those functions okay, but some features still don’t work.

Following on what you said, it’s also true that for a long time it was difficult for women to get published in the science fiction genre. Many of them relied on male pseudonyms (i.e. Andre Norton, James Tiptree Jr.).

But OP was speaking specifically about fantasy books, and not specifying only bestsellers.

My guess, with no data to back it up, is that both men and women enjoy writing fantasy and science fiction, and many of them are good at it.

But writing science fiction often requires a science background, and historically there are many more men than women who have that. It is certainly becoming more balanced, but the difference is still there.

So women, who generally don’t have as scientific a background, turn to fantasy where they can create their own worlds.

There’s also a difference, because our elections typically have only a few races on them. In other words, at the federal level I only vote for the candidates in my writing. Typically four to six options.

In a us election, there can be a ballot containing choices for many different levels, including judges, district attorneys, and so on. Not to mention they might have several referenda on the same ballot too.

I could see that being much more complex on paper, making electronic voting attractive.

I have started using Tux Guitar. It’s an open source version of Guitar Pro, and can read Guitar Pro files.

I second this. It also teaches without using rote memorization. Better than any other books or videos I have ever seen. I have been supporting LT with a monthly donation for several years now.

I find Drupal just as easy to set up as wordpress. Most shared web hosts have a script to do everything for you, including installing updates. In fact, I find Drupal’s administration more logical and easier to manage. (I may be biased, since I spent 10 years developing Drupal sites.)

The other advantage is that, unlike WordPress, Drupal themes and plugins (the Drupal term is “modules”) are almost all open source and free. I find that WordPress has lots of plugins that give you the basic version for free, but then want to upsell you to a paid version.

I know someone who is allergic to garlic. Sometimes I wonder how sad her life must be.

Not only that, but many of his books are freely available epubs with no DRM. You can read them and decide if you like his style before going on to buy the others.

deleted by creator

You are right, but I’m not sure if the intelligence was built into the command to recognize it as a root level deletion.

rm -rf --no-preserve-root /

Looks like it started appearing in various flavors of Unix and Linux around 2005.

If it were on an old installation of linux, it would delete everything on the file system, from every disk attached.

Modern Linux systems require an additional flag to explicitly stay that you want to nuke your system.

I like Jitsi, but when I record a session it always silently aborts after about 40 minutes.
