Dark humor.

Happy to hear if there are glaring problems with this approach, but if you can assume files named with version numbers, you can use a script to always launch the newest...

#!/bin/bash
cd ~/Downloads
chmod +x $(ls | grep Appname.*AppImage$ | sort -rV | head -n 1)
./$(ls | grep Appname.*AppImage$ | sort -rV | head -n 1)

Or you could change the script to sort by file modified date and launch the newest.

edit: Discovered an issue with version numbering like .10 and learned about the sort -V switch that fixes it!

This is true, but it's worse to have two problems.

There are two ways to do a to-do list in Joplin: within the text of a single note or at the next level up, where an entire folder can be populated with full-fledged notes you can individually check off. The flexibility is really nice.

I used to love this and play every day... or multiple times a day, as I often couldn't wait 24 hours for all of my action points to revive. It really captured my imagination for a while. Gotta build those barriers up!

I think it's not a swear filter, but more like a 'potentially discriminatory terms' filter.

Nice try, Joe Pesci disguised as a cop at the beginning of classic holiday film Home Alone (1990).

That's kind of like saying The Beatles are a contemporary band because they released a single this year.

at least why are people not backing up locally then wiping in advance of any servicing?

Have you met people?

Not for every kind of book, I'd say but digital... 8.5 times out of 10. E-ink screens are amazing and just as good as paper, but having your books also available on your phone, and thus always in your pocket, is transformative. So, digital on a platform that syncs between devices.

The Android version of FBReader has been closed-source for a number of years now.

Assuming your phone is Android and your Kindle books aren't DRMed, KOReader.
