Technology@lemmy.world•Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands.English
2·10 months agoNice. Mines an older Clara I bought about 5 years ago. I personally don’t have the use for a color screen, but for $10 I guess why not! Most books I read don’t have any images besides the cover
I installed KO Reader as soon as I got it and never looked back. Not as pretty as the standard Nickel (?) OS but more customisable.
I love having an e-reader. I read so much more because of it. Much more convenient, not having to worry about heavy books, holding open pages, no need to worry about proper lighting for reading. Light and small enough to bring everywhere. I will buy another immediately once this one dies.

14·10 months agoI love my Kobo. I installed KO Reader on it and have Calibre for managing my ebooks.
Get all my ebooks from z-library or Anna’s archive.
If you guys really wanted cheap EVs, maybe not having 100% tariffs on Chinese EV’s would help. You can make an argument about not letting the Chinese government into the market, but as it currently stands the US government isn’t looking much better.
Can’t wait to see the mental gymnastics subreddit moderators will perform to defend this!

But more seriously, MF DOOM (RIP) is one of my favourite artists, but he’s been covered in a few comments already. But one of my favourites from him is:
Getting paid like a biker with the best crank
Spray it like a high-ranked sniper in the West Bank

10·2 years agoI finished Alastair Reynold’s Pushing Ice a few months ago and it’s kind of close to what OP is looking for. Also a really good book!

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I've recently turned 20. What highly specific advice you, lemmy users, would offer me?English

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Where's a good place to read about people's interpretations of song lyrics?English
17·2 years agoGenius.com usually has annotations to explain song lyrics. Usually they’re guessing the intent of the artist though. Or are you wanting differing interpretations? I’m not sure if there’s anything like that.

91·2 years agoIf you have a decent blender, making smoothies is an easy way. If you don’t like the taste you can just hold your nose and gulp it down.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How many ingredients does it take to call it a salad?English
2·2 years agoAccording to Wikipedia:
The potato is a starchy food, a tuber of the plant Solanum tuberosum and is a root vegetable native to the Americas.
They are usually sold with the other vegetables in a supermarket because they are a root vegetable.
Let’s stop arguing and just enjoy fries instead

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How many ingredients does it take to call it a salad?English
2·2 years agoPotatoes come from a plants roots and should be considered a vegetable. And fries are made of potatoes. Therefore I say it’s a salad.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is a technology/gadget you refuse to use and why?
291·2 years agoI persisted with my wired earbuds until only very recently picked up some wireless ones and can say they’re better in every way. Unless you only ever use them while sitting still. Exercising, gardening, mowing the lawn, working on the car or in the garage, anything where you’re moving about really. Not having the stupid wire getting caught on anything or accidentally pulling your phone out is a godsend.
Audio quality is fine for 99.9% of people. I think some people are stuck on views from 5 or 6 years ago. The tech has come a long way.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What book are you in the middle of reading right now?English
2·2 years agoThe Endymion books definitely feel different and the themes show their age a little, but overall I think they’re still worth reading

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What book are you in the middle of reading right now?English
4·2 years agoSome people will say the rest of the series isn’t worth reading, but I enjoyed them all.


That’s why I always leave things for the day after tomorrow.
