    The only thing I hate is how sometimes a document compiles perfectly fine on one machine only to utterly fail on another. On the two machines were I had this happen I have Texlive installed so that I wouldn't have to look up missing packages. Maybe this is a version mismatch error? I have no clue.

    Also I had an old document I wanted to compile which used a '\begin{justifying}' tag. I can't get that tag to work anymore and had to replace it with just '\justifying'



  • I managed to do it somehow without a kindle but it was an absolute pain in the ass. For my first few books I had to download then using a specific old version of the kindle desktop app so that calibre was able to remove the encryption. Apparently the encryption used by the newer kindle desktop app is different.

    For my next books that suddenly wasn't enough and I had to use an old android app version in an emulator and get the books out of the hidden app storage using adb.

    I'm never buying an ebook of amazon again if I can avoid it
