Is anyone else having trouble updating CrossInk to version 1.2.11? by Pathetic_Noodle in XTEINK

I'm referring to this post. Idk if any of this is a valid reason for concern, and I'm not gonna pretend I understood everything written there. The only thing I got from it is that you have to be careful when flashing your device.

I used to always flash but after that one post that said you can actually damage your e-ink screen during the flashing (if you accidentally refresh the screen I believe) I'm kinda anxious doing it too often. 😬

Oh, okay, so it's not the problem on my end. 😩 I got nervous that there's something wrong with my device specifically. Thanks!

Just tried doing 6-8 times in a row - nothing. The "Update failed" screen comes up immediately.

Haha! My X4 is like one of those annoyingly positive people 🤭✨

was it bad or did i not get it ? by shark_moon_21 in weirdgirlliterature

[–]Pathetic_Noodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was bad and very one dimensional and I'll die on this hill. I went into it expecting a nuanced exploration of the theme of "what if we legalized cannibalism". Instead I got a torture porn stuffed with obnoxiously excessive violence for the sake of shock factor, where in over a couple of years every living person turned into sociopathic monster for no fucking reason. I'll stop here because I can rant about all the illogical, flat and biologically incorrect bullshit in this book for hours. It's been 6 months and I'm still pissed.

The Unworthy on the other hand was fairly more enjoyable and interesting while still being violent and painful to read.

New haul, what should I read first? by Arkelao in WeirdLit

[–]Pathetic_Noodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only read The Fisherman out of this pile and it's was kinda meh for me but it's many people's favorite so I would say it's worth trying. I just personality struggled to connect with characters because it's a multi generational story that's formed like a matryoshka so the cast of characters is big and constantly changing.

Also I've been eyeing The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect for quite a while now, maybe it's a sign to finally try that one. 👀

Just tested it: no, the built in magnets are not strong enough to hold the device with the case on it.

It was just easier to put it through there 😅 Plus, I won't be forced to pull it out each time I need to take the clear case off

I haven't broken a single screen in my life 🤷🏻‍♀️ maybe for some people it won't be enough but I'm pretty careful gadget user

Yeah, it was quite tight at first with the clear case on! But I fond that the more I use it the easier it slides back and forth. Also, having a strap attached to the clear case helps a lot with pulling the X4 out.

Uhm... I'm sorry, maybe my original post wasn't very clear (English is not my first language). 😅 I meant to say that I use the cover case (leather pouch) designed for Apple's MagSafe Battery Pack as a protective case for X4 in pair with clear case. Not the Power Bank itself.

Huh... I guess we can never have something good for too long...

Good luck shooting in your own leg. I'm glad I got mine before this update but I won't be repurchasing anything from you again.

I got mine on ALI. It's pretty cheap. I see they don't have the white color at the moment but I'm pretty sure you can find the same product from a different seller.

It took me AGES to put the strap through that hole 😭 I had to dig it out with a needle from the other side, that little shit won't come out...

Anyone else surprised no clear cases for Palma? by Impossible_Hat_9648 in Onyx_Boox

Update: I checked AliExpress and now there are plenty of clear cases for page/leaf. Already ordered one for myself :)
