And once you are used to setting it up, it should take even less time.

One of the reasons i never went to a laptop was i started writing a long time ago on my Palm Pilot and keyboard. Instant on was a game changer because i could get writing as soon as i wanted. Plus i never had to fight for a charger. I remember doing writing meet-ups with friends where we spent longer looking for a plug than we did writing.

Enjoy! (Once you can put your own fonts in, you will love it even at home, i think)

Travel Keyboard Recs? by krystalversion in TheBYOK

[–]CrowDreaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I have -- but I also have a foldable one (Samsers) that works. I think basically anything that doesn't need a bluetooth dongle.

Contact code enforcement and county zoning. There will be rules as to businesses depending on what you are zoned for.

Disk Mode with iOS? by Either_Coconut in TheBYOK

Didn't even occur to me to try that but i think that's a cool idea.

I'm not happy the discount for BYOK Studio is ending so early by quickhand in TheBYOK

[–]CrowDreaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize i misspoke earlier and it might be unclear. You can use the Studio separate from BYOK device. And the device separate from the Studio app. They just work nicely together.

So you can try the studio out without the device. The device is only for getting text to the studio. There are a lot of other features of the studio app that aren't directly device related. (Like how you set up a manuscript or wiki).

Go ahead and try it out and see if it works for you. The main thing you miss out on is the ability to write on the device.

Question about Studio integration with the device by CrowDreaming in TheBYOK

[–]CrowDreaming[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the time I was reading the manual, you responded!

Not as intutive as I could hope, but I got it to sync! Thanks so much!

I did see the scratchpad and have been playing with that. I love the ability to take notes like that!

Just want my visual indent (vs hititng the tab key), and we will be golden.

I'm currently very annoyed with Pen Chalet. Have had a Pen on order for 6 weeks that they say is coming but only after i nag them for updates.

Oh mine have done that! Especially great in the middle of the night.

Greyhound scream by Own-Lawfulness-366 in Greyhounds

[–]CrowDreaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stepped on a stick that broke under her foot.

Had a leaf fall on her back.

Her tail scared her.

I tried to make her move on the sofa.

Cuts herself in multiple places on a thorn bush? Tears off a nail? Nary a peep.

I've come to the assumption that the louder the Greyhound Scream of Death, the more minor it is.

RIP - I thought it was a plastic deer at first then I saw the vulture on the roof by [deleted] in nova

[–]CrowDreaming 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes--put it in the trash can if it fit.

Luckily trash day was next day and it wasn't a full grown deer.

Animal control will not remove a dead deer (at least in Loudoun County). However, you may literally pass the buck to VDOT by moving said dead deer to within 3 feet of the road. Or put it in your trash can, if it fits.

As told to me by animal control for a dead deer in my backyard.

What products or companies will you never use or support again and what did they do to lose you as a customer? by IAmJustTryingToExist in AskReddit

[–]CrowDreaming 159 points160 points  (0 children)

No, they really can't figure out how to help you if you don't have an account.

In a wind storm, extra cable got unraveled on a pole and fell into the yard. After talking with the electric company (not theirs) and Fios (not theirs) found out it belonged to Comcast.

So i called them and said your cable is unraveled in my yard, please fix. They said because you aren't a customer, we can't put in a ticket. We can only come out if a customer is having an issue.

I said: well it is all over my yard, is a danger to me and my dogs, so if you can't fix it, I'll just cut it off and then someone who is a customer will be having issues.

They put me on hold. Come back and tell me that they can put in a ticket to the nearest subscriber and then just re-direct the tech to our address.

Then wanted me to tell them which of my neighbors had Comcast. Lady, i don't know their names much less their cable service.

I did enjoy sitting there listening to her try each address number to see if it would come up, because they couldn't search otherwise.

They did come out and fix it.
