Zotero plugins for the PineNote

With the release of Zotero 8, it's possible to run Zotero on Pine64's PineNote. I've found Zotero to be fully-functional, albeit often slow, and sometimes triggering an OOM when working with particularly large PDFs.

I've been working on some plugins to make Zotero more usable on the PineNote (and other e-ink devices like it):

• Center PDF - automatically center each page of PDF in the reader when navigating using the up/down buttons
• Paged Snapshots - navigate web snapshots with the same up/down page buttons
• Vertical Toolbar - does what it says on the tin
• Focus Mode - fullscreen Zotero to fit more text on the screen

ABR Background Videos

An ffmpeg command that produces abr video assets suitable for silent web background video. I'm using shaka-player to stream the resulting files.

I went through several iterations of this, and other variations could work as well. I believe this produces all the assets needed for cross-browser compatibility. Safari needs mp4, and iOS Safari (at least the version my old MacBook can simulate) will only play HLS, even with shaka-player.

Enabling hibernation with full disk encryption on Pop!_OS 21.04.

I am recording the steps I took here to enable hibernation on a default Pop!_OS installation with full-disk encryption. I have written my commands as a single executable script in order to better understand how they all relate, but they probably should not be executed this way. Use this guide with caution and only if you understand what each command does.

I did all of this on Pop!_OS version 21.04, but swapfile hibernation is still working for me as of 22.04. I expect that the following steps will work for that as well, but I haven't tested it.

Using a swapfile

This is the simplest method if you used the default Pop installation, since it does not involve resizing any encrypted partitions.

module.exports = async (tasks, n) => {
    const results = new Array(tasks.length);
    const executing = [];
    let index = 0;
    while (index < tasks.length || executing.length) {
        if (index < tasks.length && executing.length < n) {
            let task = tasks[index];
            let taskIndex = index;
            task = task().then(r => {
                const i = executing.indexOf(task);
