Both cbr and cbz are just compressed archives - R for Rar and Z for Zip. The format has got nothing to do with how the images are displayed in a reader application.

If you want any reader to read a comic frame by frame instead of page by page, you’d have to uncompress the file, then cut out each individual frame and give them sensible names (eg. page_39_frame_03.png or somesuch) and then recompress.

Someone else in the thread mention software that can do this, but it might not always work as expected, when the layout is not straight-forward.

mc mirror is a pretty straightforward method of migration. Should work if the other end is S3-compatible.

Don’t question. Just download every game ever made on any platform. Click the link and don’t question.

Turbo Linux in the late 90s. It didn’t go well.

Later I gave Redhat a shot - 5.0 or 5.1, I forget. Stayed with RH and now Fedora.

I use Ansible to deploy a bunch of containers with intradependencies (shared volumes, networks and settings). One of the containers is homemade with the source pulled from codeberg. Variables are kept in a separate file and passwords in an encrypted one and the whole thing is in a private repo. It is quite flexible.

When I started out converting from compose, I literally asked Copilot for “this, but in Ansible”, which got me pretty far.

history | grep whatever is quite useful when you just barely remember a command or the files you used it on.

Obsidian looks interesting.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it seems like the challenges with Komga would be similar to those when using Mylar. I’ll probably just go for a spreadsheet.

That was my first idea too, but last I checked it didn’t scrape much other than English editions (using Comicvine AFAIR) and had no way of manually adding stuff it can’t scrape.

Scraping metadata. Wish/purchase/pull lists. Keeping track of multiple editions. Perhaps even scraping entire collections/storylines into manageable lists?

At the very least a quick way to use my phone to check if I already have a specific comic when I’m at the store.

Grist might be useful if I end up setting more than a spreadsheet up, thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. I think that might be too much work for my needs though.

Then it does nothing.

It sources (includes) any file found in ~/.bashrc.d/ so check that directory.

No, he’s not!
