@volpeon deservedly so I guess. Atleast the Vid is funny. neocat_laugh But "Only Gamers know that joke" Tbh it might be a fine card but even at MSRP the value is not there. If the inflated prices... even worse

@mia I will certainly not be at LBM sadly. But tbh my most concern is not even the german publishers tbh. They do not offer that many Novels so one could feaseably add the data by hand.

The english ones are a different story though.

@mia You could really do that for me? That might help me out maybe. All I wanted to accomplish was to have a high quality database for Light Novels so it could be used with fedi stuff like bookwyrm. So idea was to contribute to an open dataset

@mia Yeah tbh I should really ask them for the data. Thats a good point. J-Novel Club has an API to get all that info so that was a piece of cake for a contributor lol.

So I guess just straight up asking the likes of Yen Press and Seven Seas might not end to bad.

The idea was just to grab the data and then donate that to inventaire. I would have tried openLibrary first but they only really have a mailing list if you want to ask stuff so....

I do have quite a lot of stuff already atleast: https://codeberg.org/stefan230/Light-Novel-Database

@mia The next I wanted to tackle for a long while is building a scraper thingie to grab some useful data of of publishers Websites when it comes to Light Novel.

The first try kinda worked but getting the data in shape was much manual labour

@mia Maybe if I have the time and boredom to look at it. For now it works well and does correct math

@mia i dunno actually. Like I have no clue. It was what worked for and the GUI is responsive (other than TKInter which would bog down really quickly)

There is so many horrors lurking in the code just cause I do not know any better and have no real clue of python lol. Pretty sure there is literally thousands of lines that could be replaced but it works and fast even

This is my atrocity: https://codeberg.org/stefan230/Konosuba-TRPG-Character-Sheet-Program Still proud of it.

And everything is better than the LibreOffice Calc sheet I had before

@mia I almost ended up using TKinter for the GUI but it was just shit to use. Why is this recommended for python again?

Tbh QT-Designer made the GUI-Part somewhat easer but coding part more difficult

@mia You would absolutely positively shudder at my python and QT monstrosity which I built to have a program that calculates character sheet for a niche TRPG. But it works correctly atleast. Very proud of what I managed
