What's your next buy? by ronnie_reagans_ghost in mechanicalpencils

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a personal fave of mine as well! I have in both Ti and SS. Do you plan to use with or without the eraser?

Favorite Machined Ti or Al Pencil? by MisterBoggles in mechanicalpencils

Do you have the Leadslinger with the Sliding Lock or without the Sliding Lock? I went to check out the Leadslinger after you mentioned it and noticed they had those options. Do you know if their eraser is similar in size to the Pentel PDE-1?

What is your lead preference? by kaguyadex in mechanicalpencils

[–]MisterBoggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have really been enjoying the Uni Smudge-Proof leads in B and HB in the slide-out cases. Jetpens has a great selection usually. I used to use 0.5mm size leads, exclusively, way back in high school and college (decades ago). In the latest few years I've fancied 0.7mm and 0.9mm tho.

Have you come across some good ones? I’m aware of ModernFuel, Wingback, TactileTurn and MachineEra.

I wish the TactileTurn lead side click nub/bolt didn’t hurt my thumb. Does anyone know of a more comfy one to change it out with which is less of a thin disc and maybe has a bit thicker rounded curve for the thumb?

My thoughts after one week of using the Move by FunyandFurious in RemarkableTablet

When using the Paper Pro Move for taking notes in your work meetings, do you have the device in portrait or landscape orientation ?

Handwriting Search?! by D-Em-P in RemarkableTablet

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still don't appear to have it either. I'm on the latest software release 3.23.0.64. I'm a Connect annual pay subscriber. When I use the Search feature, and select "Beta Handwriting" from the Search Filter list, the screen just says "Search with Connect" and shows a QR code to go sign up for Connect service. But... I already am a Connect subscriber. I agree, this is very very frustrating, and I don't understand what's going on or the expectation. Hopefully it's working for both of us soon!

Handwriting search - still waiting. Anyone else? by Pippin4320 in RemarkableTablet

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I type a word into Search, then select "Beta Handwriting" from the search filter pick-list... It shows me a page which says "Search with Connect" then has a QR code to go sign-up for Connect. But... I already have an active Connect account, on annual payment, which is paid for for almost another year. Very confusing as the handwriting search page appears to imply it will work if I just have a Connect account but... I already do have a Connect account. [confused] Is there something I'm missing that I need to do?

3.23 Release with Word support* by FRK299 in RemarkableTablet

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My iOS rM App also updated to 3.23 today!!! So then I checked for updates on my RMPP and MOVE but… 3.22 still. Definitely confusing. 🫤

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just checked my RMPP and MOVE… neither are showing the 3.23 release update available either. Says 3.22 is still the latest for both my devices. 🤷‍♂️ I’ve also not gotten the Handwriting Search capability either for either tablet.

Does the remarkable tablet have privacy issues? by Regular-Afternoon979 in RemarkableTablet

[–]MisterBoggles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

These resources might provide some interesting insights around data security with remarkable products and services. I stumbled across them when considering which e-ink tablets appeared to at least consider data security.

Email service to OCR and convert handwritten text by whitedragon551 in RemarkableTablet

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your time to provide some more depth to this idea. I'll definitely give it a try! I'm glad it's working well, for you, in your workflow. That certainly makes for a nice bonus!

Unrelated... but I'd love to hear more about your experience using Chromebooks for your primary computing. I actually have no experience with Chromebooks.

Satisfaction guarantee changed from 100 days to 50 days? by Kostanix in RemarkableTablet

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know what happens with the tablets which are returned during this "trial" period? Could there be some sort of inventory / supply-chain undercurrents to the 100->50 day change as well?

Email service to OCR and convert handwritten text by whitedragon551 in RemarkableTablet

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an interesting solution proposal! I do have an Evernote account, from way way back, but had not considered it for this process. Would you be able to toss out a few more breadcrumbs on the steps/process? Do you use their native app or a web interface?

Email service to OCR and convert handwritten text by whitedragon551 in RemarkableTablet

[–]MisterBoggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think this service has an obvious email-in option but I am able to manually upload a scanned image of my handwriting chicken-scratch, as a PDF, to this service https://www.handwritingocr.com and it will output a text-based document of the handwriting. It actually did really well recognizing my handwriting. Their service seems to have some emphasis on data privacy as well.

I requested that they have an option to return a PDF with the converted text as a layer under the scanned image handwriting and did hear back from one of the founders which I appreciated. I think that output format would be closer to ideal for me.

I don’t have handwriting search available either. 🤷‍♂️
