yep, is because Arch (basically because qt5 upgrade...), and with the issue on it: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63051
$ calibre
Fatal Python error: PyQt5.QtCore: Unable to embed qt.conf
[1] 13321 abort (core dumped) calibre
At that moment, I didn't have time to workaround on it :(

I'm using Linux and trying to find a e-reader recently. Here is what I tested on Arch:
Calibre: Failed to open
Okular: Ugly, cannot modify margin
bookworm: No two-page view, only scrolling-mode, and scrolling-mode cannot get the reading progress
zathura: too simplify resulting in not know how to use
lector: cannot recognize epub......
Buka: cannot open the book. (I don't get the logic flow, create a list first, then import the book, then crash)
Until I found Foliate, it support two-page view w/ progress bar, it support epub will in different language (I test en_US and zh_TW), fast lookup (gtrans, Wiktionary, Wikipedia), good UI, ...etc

Yep, when Chromium ate up all the memory, it just hang the whole OS, waiting for OOM killer about 10+ min, then the cursor can be moved again, then freeze again...
CITE: Relative to the official numbers, we estimate that GDP growth from 2008-2016 is 1.7 percentage points lower and the investment and savings rate in 2016 is 7 percentage points lower.
