linucs

I always hear that a normal computer user would never install an OS and that is the main reason Linux has not a higher market share. But I guess what we mean by that is that a user would never create a live usb, access the boot options and boot from there to install the new OS.

Is there a hard technical limitation when it comes to create a tool that installs a linux distro from a "normal" windows exe file, provided that the user first disables secure boot and fast boot (which are things a tool with admin privileges should also be able do on first run)?

Does such a tool already exist?

I feel like there's something I'm missing, forgive my ignorance

Any era is welcome but I'm especially interested in modern history.

I know that having just one book which talks about the history of the whole world would be difficult but let's see if you guys know something (series are welcomed suggestions too).

Am I oversimplifying stuff too much?

Recommend me nice things to learn, bonus if there's a deck available

Right now I use Read You on my phone to get RSS feeds and I read articles on my browser but I want to cut the time I stare at my phone throughout the day so I came up with this system:

Once a week I will look at all the feeds I follow on my PC RSS reader, select the ones I want to read during the next week and save them / export them (possibly in PDF or ePUB?) so that I can put them on my old Kindle (that has no internet access) and read them only using the kindle during the week.

This will drastically reduce the time I use my phone to first scroll and select articles and then to actually read them. Looking at a screen all day for work and also looking at a screen (phone) in my free time is not good for me and I want to change that.

If no RSS reader has that option, does anyone know of another program or firefox extension that would let me "export" web pages as pdfs or epubs?

I'll start with: medical conditions, everyone would prefer to have an average well known and curable disease than a special case or a unique one

First of all, I know this is not the kind of questions that usually are done in asklemmy but I don't know where to ask, sorry folks.

It's a 5th generation kindle and I really loved reading on it. :(

Bonus question if the kindle is doomed: best e-ink reader on the cheaper side? I don't want anything super powerful or fancy, I just want to load my collection with calibre and read on it. - bonus points if it's a libre and or open source friendly.

4 ways of using it come to my mind:

• Place hands on the inclined outer handles and do a pull up with arms open wide
• Place hands with palms facing the wall on the "inner" handles and do a pull up with arms at shoulder width
• Place hands with palms facing my face on the "inner" handles and do a chin up
• Place hand on the handles which point out of the wall and do a pull up / chin up (sorry don't know in this case)

Are these excercises different for the group of muscles they target? And if so, how? Is there any ranking among them from worse to better?

Also if I can do chin ups just fine but I can only do negative pull ups, which ones should I choose?
