MasterPDF Editor is quite good. In the past I found the windows keygen works with linux version. You have to block it from accessing internet though, or it will phone home to verify. This was a while ago I used it, so my info may be slightly out of date. Here's one way to block it from having internet access, start with this command: bwrap --bind / / --unshare-net masterpdfeditor5

That's great that these MPs want to educate themselves. They could learn a lot. By "compel" I'm sure they mean something like "inspire" these people to come and share their experience and research with them in a respectful philosophical exchange. And by "defend" they are probably thinking of the clever Socratic traditions of inquiry.

Our Changing Climate

And Potholer54 for his intense climate change denial debunks.

Interesting perspective. Maybe you could find some good articles with more nuance to post?

There are a few attempts things like this. Here is one.... https://fedi.directory

Here is the study, "Assessment of Stoichiometric Autocatalysis across Element Groups", linked in the last paragraph of the article for your enjoyment: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jacs.3c07041

the /usr/bin/krunner executable is owned by the plasma-workspace package. It has a lot of dependencies. So yeah, you basically need a huge chunk of kde/plasma to run it.

A pretty similar Qt-based launcher utility (not quite so good in some areas, possibly better in some) is called albert, if you don't want to use plasma anymore.

Maybe check out Pop! OS

But, yes, nearly all linux software will run on any distro. And even a fair amount of windows software will run on any of them with WINE (or VirtualBox if desperate). Occasionally commercial software will get packaged in an "installer" format a particular distro doesn't know how to install. A fairly rare situation, for which there are almost always work-arounds. You can cross that bridge if you ever encounter it.

I also agree it looks like some kind of sedum (in a bit of a sad state), but just wanted to add that sedum is known commonly as stonecrop in some places. In case you're looking around in a garden store or something, they may be called stonecrop there.

What features are locked? I've only ever used the f-droid version, and haven't noticed anything blocked. But I don't use it much (unfortunately).

Never heard of Readwise. Interesting concept.

Not going to be nearly as convenient, but you can use google lens (part of Google assistant I think, or stand alone app) to quickly OCR a page into selectable text which then could be copied into a notes app or something. You'd have manually add a reference.

Anyhow maybe you can figure out a workflow using Google lens for the OCR copy/past part, that isn't too onerous, if no other solutions appear. Let us know! .
