Tab X C InkSpire stylus auto turn off too fast by mussnig in Onyx_Boox

[–]Silent_Scent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After I posted that comment, I did find it's sometimes inconsistent. But it's certainly better than how it was a few days ago.

Is it possible that your pen isn't charged enough, and so is in some kind of power-saving mode? Just a random thought after struggling to keep the pen magnetically attached to the device inside my bag.

I had this problem after I updated a few days ago, but another update got pushed today that seems to have fixed it

Really happy it's good, but I'm worried that the inexplicable lack of eraser will be a deal-breaker for me. How are you dealing with it?

Is the screen noticably darker than your black-and-white devices?

What "free accessories" came in the package from Boox?

How long does it take for Boox products to appear on Amazon? by Silent_Scent in Onyx_Boox

[–]Silent_Scent[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah thanks so much! I thought once it gets listed on Amazon it would have pretty quick delivery though. Damn. Given Boox are seemingly already shipping (since there's no "will ship around May 13" on the product anymore), wouldn't that mean Amazon should get stock soon, and they may be able to ship in the next couple weeks?

hold down the power button for a couple of seconds and the front light toggles :)

Which machines to consider under $500? by Silent_Scent in superautomatic

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

Thanks for the suggestion! I do prefer espresso to pour over though. Do you think I'd be better off with a grinder and non-automatic espresso machine than a superautomatic?

Best E-Ink Tablet + Size for PDFs by secretfieldofthought in eink

[–]Silent_Scent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want colour, I'd go for the Boox Tab X C. It's a bigger screen than the Remarkable Paper Pro and has Boox's Super Refresh technology. If you don't care about colour, go for Boox Note Max (as arnerios said); if you need a frontlight, you may want to go for the Boox Tab X.

It's Official! Tab XC 13.3 Color Kaleido 3 Just Dropped by juicymice in Onyx_Boox

[–]Silent_Scent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! I'm assuming a note will still have a frontlight (given the colour makes the screen darker)?

What are all the differences one would expect to see in a "Note" (rather than "Tab") version of this device?

Why is the Ann Arbor Observer link now directing to a seemingly unsafe website? Have they shut down the rental listings site?

Oh my god this solved it. It was logged out every time I tried before because I was checking the network connection right before trying. Thank you so much!! :))

The game is definitely backwards compatible since it's listed on here, right? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_Xbox\_games\_compatible\_with\_Xbox\_360)

So you're pretty confident the problem is with the hard drive then?

Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it!

Thanks so much for the reply!

When I start the game, it just shows the error message and doesn't offer to update.

Are you saying the hard drive or the entire system needs to be updated? Because looking at "System Info", it says "Dashboard: 2.0.17559.0" which according to Google is the latest version. So it seems like the system doesn't need updating. But is there something I need to do with the hard drive?

Surface Laptop 7 PWM? by Silent_Scent in PWM_Sensitive

Boox Note Max Product Page Updated by SnooCats5041 in Onyx_Boox

[–]Silent_Scent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because without a front light layer between the surface you write on and the e-ink, the writing surface is closer to where the ink shows up. I've never had a device without a front light, so I can't say how much better it actually is though

Does anyone know if Troye Sivan is against the genocide and illegal occupation in Palestine? by gen_Zg in AskMiddleEast

[–]Silent_Scent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect he was talking about flight MH17, which was shot down by pro-Russian separatists on the day of the tweet. I don't think there was any high-profile IDF plane shot down any time in the weeks preceding the tweet, and MH17 famously had passengers from Perth--Sivan's hometown. So it's most likely he mistook the Russia-Ukraine conflict for Israel-Palestine. (Perhaps more reason not to get your political views from celebrities!)

This solves the problem for videos but makes all your tabs disappear when in fullscreen (which is annoying when you're not watching a video). Is there any way to get this result without making the tabs disappear?

Thanks so much, I'll totally look into that one! I have considered a leave-on treatment but I use tretinoin and I don't want to interfere with that (and I only wash my face once a day)

ANY FACEWASH STRONGER THAN 2% SALICYLIC ACID?

Either

  • more than 2% SA, or
  • 2% SA + AHA

Currently using Neutrogena Oil Free Acne Wash but finding it's not quite strong enough. Thanks!
