LaTeX is a high-quality typesetting system; it includes features designed for the production of technical and scientific documentation. LaTeX is the de facto standard for the communication and publication of scientific documents.
@DenubisX I will definitely give the TeX route a shot before defaulting to InDesign. I'm a sucker for "easy", but I'm doing some research on ConTeXt and it might be worth the extra investment of time *and* it'll make the project much more interesting.
As for the Let's Plays... holy cow, that's a lot of videos. (And I've already started watching them.)
@DenubisX I have a bit of experience with LaTeX back when I took electronic notes in my math class (wouldn't recommend doing that) but I like trying new things, so maybe I'll try ConTeXt.
As for what I have available, I have both Adobe CC and a couple test boxes for Linux. If I can use the Linux software in a VM, however, that would be preferred.
I'm making a handbook for Factorio as my first DIY hardcover book project. The handbook will include:
- Start to Finish Walkthrough - Blueprints (with link to import strings and more prints) - Encyclopedia (basically a wiki) - Game History - Tips and Tricks
Obviously, the Internet exists, and the content of this book is easily found within a Google search, but I wanted to create a fun project for myself for the next school semester.
The Internet is the global system of interconnected computer networks that use the Internet protocol suite to link devices worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope, linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless, and optical networking technologies. https://tootplanet.space/media/ZRgTfI96rq1IWgVAAns
It kind of bothers me, tbh, that people will say someone was killed by cancer or pneumonia or "died of old age" but suicide is never "killed by depression" or other mental illnesses
I mean suicide is awful and wrong but in the huge majority of cases it's directly the fault of the illness and the words we use leave this big opening for victim blaming which is really awful and part of why people don't get the help they need
@trwnh Sure, there's that, but then I would be at risk of people impersonating me, claiming that my work is theirs, and they could even be reaping the profits of something that they didn't sow.
