The goal: See upcoming events from various NYC venues in one place, possibly my Google Calendar

The problem: Bars and venues all use different sites and apps to manage their event calendars, forcing me to check each venue's website individually. It sucks!

My best guess at a solution: Find a way to convert the venue's websites/calendars to RSS, then use IFTTT to convert the RSS feeds to Google Calendar entries.

1. Is that the correct solution?
2. Does anyone know the best way to convert these sites to RSS?

Here are the calendars that I need to convert:

• Barbes

• Rockwood

• Union Hall

• The Skint This one actually has RSS, but it combines multiple events into each RSS entry

• Starr Bar

• Jalopy Theatre

• Art Cards

• Art Net

• NY Art World

And one newsletter:

• Nonsense NYC

These venues already use Google Calendar, so I've successfully imported them:

• House of Yes

• Union Docs

• Branded Saloon

• Sid Gold's Request Room

Thank you Software Options!

I frequently use Calibre to convert academic papers from PDF to epub, so I can read them on my tablet. But the conversion often results in weird formatting artifacts.

I'm aware that in the Conversion tool, there's a Search & Replace section, where I can list various expressions that will help me remove things like page numbers. This post has some helpful expressions for that. For example:

\d+<br>\n|\d+\w<br>\n|\w\d+<br>\n

Does anyone have a list of more expressions that they use when converting academic papers from PDF to epub? Especially any good expressions for handling footnotes?? I would love to get a bunch together, save them, and then simply load them every time I have to do this.

Thanks all!

The Doogee Smini is about the size of an iPhone 13 mini, however, it has an IP69K rating, an info display on the back and a customizable button on the side.

Already up on Aliexpress!

I've used these sites in the past to get around article paywalls, but for weeks now I haven't been able to get past the captcha. I fill it out correctly and it just reloads. Anyone else having this issue? Know a good alternative?

Good compact phones died with the iPhone Mini.

I like going to karaoke bars with my friends, but so many songs have problems:

• They're fun for the first 2 verses and chorus, but then they keep going, or
• They include some really long instrumental break in the middle, where I just have to kinda tap dance

What are some karaoke songs that don't have these problems? Looking for songs that are

• short: Below 4 min if possible. Maybe even below 3?
• no instrumental break

Thanks Lemmy!

Here are some resources for finding compact phones w/ custom ROMs:

• The official Lineage devices page The search tool lets you filter phones by desired screen size (and other features!

• Hackable Phones Includes a section on the best compact phones, and lets you search by size

Inspired by this post: https://lemmy.world/post/6597113

At this point I'm not even picky about which custom ROM I run.
What I'm looking for is a phone that has a very small form factor and there's any custom ROM that officially supports it.

Ideally, with a 3-4" screen
Must be <5"
Must be officially supported. (for unsupported builds, I know of a few options already)

Are there any? Thanks for any suggestions or help!

Not clear that this is done via Flipper, but I wonder. What does everyone think?

I'm looking for something like the Logitech Craft. Is that the only keyboard with this feature, or are there others?

I'm aware of the cantina bars on Disney properties like Oga's Cantina, but are there any unofficial Star Wars themed bars anywhere in the world?

It's been a beloved universe for so long, you'd think that somewhere in the world, someone would have dedicated a bar to SW. Especially during the pre-Disney years when it wasn't so litigious.

Anyone know of a SW bar somewhere?

They're not actually "compact" but they're the closest thing we have in Android world.
