Very Hymn of the Acxiom vibes

The major benefit is using KOReader instead of Amazon’s reader. Main benefit of that is configurability in my opinion. I’m new to full-time use, so I’m not aware of everything it’s capable of, but it’s already way better. My headline features are direct connection to Calibre over the network, and the lack of any marketing to me whatsoever. My nice-to-haves are arbitrary lockscreen images, Wallabag support (have yet to explore this, but looks real fun), and the built-in RSS reader.

Other than that, jailbreaking gives me the ability to fully disable ads and OTA updates.

Everything else is pretty much toys and eye candy. KOReader is the main thing from what I can tell.

Recently bought a kindle at a thrift store, which was perfect as it was on an old firmware, perfect for jailbreaking.

Now I’ve got a nice e-reader, never gave money to Amazon for the pleasure, not even using their software now. Easily the best $8 I ever spent.

I am pan, and have been with all sorts of people, and I have this one ancient, infallible technique that always guarantees a good time:

Listening

I’m dead serious. It works wonders across the entire board, regardless of gender, sexuality, body type, ability, or equipment configuration. Whoever your partner is, communication is your most valuable tool. Whether verbal or non-verbal, listening to what your partner has to say about what they want and how they feel will always tell you what to do.

Pro tip for the milk-dunkers meetup we’re having here:

Usa a fork stabbed in the cream to keep your fingies milk-free!

Yes, I dunk them in milk. They’re awesome that way.

Makes me think of the time I was running a stripped down laptop motherboard as a server for a while. Was given a laptop with a broken screen, but it had a wired NIC, so I pulled the screen off, along with any other component that wasn’t necessary, and shoved it behind a TV where it was close to the router. Ran on that thing for years before being able to afford better equipment.

An underrated feature of the laptop server: built-in UPS!

My favorite part is that it keeps getting bigger as you continue shaking it, eventually resulting in a big-ass cursor that can’t be contained in one display lol

…What? I was bored…

idk, do you add, for 4th party? Double to 6th party?

Ooh, or square?

Closed. It’s a double-master apartment, and activity from the other bathroom gets echoed and amplified through my bathroom.

Same here. lemm.ee refugee, wanted something similar in regards to federation policy and admin vibe.

In comparison, lemmy.today is a bit slower, but I’ll take slow and extant over extinct any day.
