got a digitizer and a pen too

2019-04-22 13:19:00 UTC  

ever wanted to watch a youtube video on e-ink?

2019-04-22 13:19:09 UTC  

well now you can

2019-04-22 14:24:01 UTC  

@foxhunt your only choices are to buy refurbished amazon kindles or Kobos

2019-04-22 14:24:10 UTC  

or get the chink likebook or boox

2019-04-22 14:24:27 UTC  

I already have a ebook readee

2019-04-22 14:24:30 UTC  

yeah

2019-04-22 14:24:45 UTC  

I was just wondering why haven't the chonks made any

2019-04-22 14:24:49 UTC  

they did

2019-04-22 14:24:51 UTC  

likebook

2019-04-22 14:24:52 UTC  

and Boox

2019-04-22 14:25:58 UTC  

The whole point of buying from the chinks is to get stuff cheaper

2019-04-22 14:26:33 UTC  

And looking from the prices they are not

2019-04-22 14:26:44 UTC  

they're cheaper than kindles and kobos

2019-04-22 14:26:47 UTC  

and offer more features

2019-04-22 14:28:08 UTC  

they are cheaper than if the same thing was made by samsung or apple

2019-04-22 14:28:27 UTC  

they seem expensive becasue nobody else makes them

2019-04-22 14:28:41 UTC  

they're competing against paper

2019-04-22 14:28:53 UTC  

and paper is one of the cheapest things on the planet

2019-04-22 14:29:05 UTC  

Not really

2019-04-22 14:29:33 UTC  

After the 6th or 7th book you brake even if you torrent the books

2019-04-23 04:08:42 UTC  

Chink eink is stupid

2019-04-23 04:09:09 UTC  

Amazon makes like no god damn money on the Kindles cuz they get a killing on ebooks and audiobooks

2019-04-23 04:11:55 UTC  

Just buy a used Kindle Paperwhite and pirate literally everything

2019-04-23 04:12:24 UTC  

Also color eink has been made but it hasn't been commercialized because it's probably pissing expensive and looks like ass

2019-04-23 05:54:18 UTC  

What would you do with a tegra note 7

2019-04-23 05:54:33 UTC  

It is old and doesnt seem to be able to run smoothly

2019-04-23 22:20:40 UTC  

flash lineage without gapps because google's bloat in any form slows everything down and then use fdroid

2019-04-23 22:21:20 UTC  

if you cant do that then do what they designed it to do at this stage and buy a new one. planned obsolescence

2019-04-24 11:06:21 UTC  

Would using an seedbox increase my download speed of torrents ?

2019-04-24 11:07:51 UTC  

if the seedbox has a faster connection than you do, maybe

2019-04-24 12:22:22 UTC  

the answer is *kind of*, but in my case its yes. I've had a feralhosting slot for over a year and I get more consistent download speeds from sftp to the server rather than torrenting

2019-04-24 12:22:46 UTC  

I use the upload far more than the download though

2019-04-24 15:04:40 UTC  

my method is pure unadulterated autism

2019-04-24 15:04:48 UTC  

so I have 50TB of OneDrive space

2019-04-24 15:05:29 UTC  

I download off my seedbox and put it there as cold storage and download whatever I need off OneDrive as the DL is fast as fuck

2019-04-24 15:10:55 UTC  

Nice

2019-04-24 18:47:29 UTC  

im going to china next week; i was planning to buy a tablet / laptop on-site; any good taobao recommendations?

2019-04-24 19:35:20 UTC  

I recommend you don't buy a laptop from taobao

2019-04-24 20:01:24 UTC  

go and check out the laptops at the physical mi stores

2019-04-24 20:01:34 UTC  

i was positively surprised when i visited one in shanghai
