This was a little Tom On Fire clip about whether we should follow our dreams or follow the system. Kids are always told in school and the culture to follow their dreams, but many teenagers report that when they start to look into following their dreams they are guided right back into the same system everyone is pushed through.

Establish a FOSS ebook reader and possibly run a method of syncing those books.
Adding the server on top of the NAS.
First problem – the server is not always turned on. That is OK because I am a van-lifer and I will turn it on as needed. As an alternative, you can load this up on Linode and run your eBook server in the cloud.
Need to:
1.) Create the server
2.) Auto-run it on boot (this particular server is encrypted, so I need to decrypt prior to running the cron – setting a 5 minute time to decrypt the drive)
3.) Setup an auto-add books to the server
4.) Access the books from any device on the network
Install:
apt install calibre
apt install xvfb xauth imagemagick //imagemagick may already be installed
mkdir ~/calibre
mkdir ~/calibre/toadd
Create the share folder on OMV:
Go into the OMV service and add the media share with the user name and password
fstab:
//YOUR-IP/calibre/toadd /home/pi/calibre/toadd cifs user=YOURUSER,pass=YOURPASS 0 0
Add books to the library toadd folder and run the library database add command:
xvfb-run calibredb add /home/pi/calibre/toadd/* -library-path /home/pi/calibre
Start the server:
calibre-server /home/pi/calibre
Background Service (Starting Cron Job):
Use the cron job – The daemonize scripts I have done in the past failed after updating to OMV4. It might work, but last time I tried it, it failed, so I wanted to run with cron which I know works.
@reboot sleep 180 && mount -a -t cifs
@reboot sleep 210 && xvfb-run calibredb add -library-path /home/pi/calibre calibre/toadd/* && rm /calibre/toadd/*
@reboot sleep 300 && sh /bin/calibre.sh
Contents of calibre.sh:
calibre-server -with-library /home/pi/calibre
