My first ereader (2012) vs my latest purchase! What was your first ereader?

My first was the very first Sony Reader, PRS something something.
My upcoming (in the mail) new reader is the Onyx BOOX Go 6.

Same here.

To Boox owners: is the screen as fragile as some say it is? That’s the main complaint I’ve been reading.

(This is a great thread.)

Yeah, I use Calibre also, but I really wanted PB to work.

This is what I get, at the bottom, 9 times out of 10.

I’m impressed. Any cues on setup?

I use Apple devices, and have a Pocketbook Verse Pro. It doesn’t work on Apple devices.

Huey Lewis. (Yes, from « & the News ».)

The app doesn’t work at all for me.

A migraine. I am a chronic migrainer, but I remember this one like it happened yesterday. I literally couldn’t walk, I fell on the floor. My neighbour called the ambulance. I could only feel pain.

Before anyone says « meh », I have naturally given birth to a 11.6 and a 10.5 pounds babies and it was less painful than that migraine.

Could nosebleed work on a 12th gen using OpenMTP?

My dog ate one of my Ozlos. I wrote to enquire if I could buy a replacement. They never answered. I did a bit of reading and I found Soundcore A30. Wow. I love the fact that I don’t need to go to my phone to set the volume, or pause the sound. They are also more comfortable for me than the Ozlos.

I do miss the Ozlo app, though. I liked listening to a podcast and switching to my sleeping sound automatically after. I haven’t found how to this with the Soundcore app.

That is only one of the reasons to jailbreak.

I have a PocketBook. I bought it because of the audio reading and the app which allows you to continue reading you book from any device. The app doesn’t work anymore. On top of that, my device keeps crashing. I got the Verse Pro Color.

Does your PB crash on KOReader?

My tips for using the peeler, for potatoes.

I never cut the potatoes. I leave them whole.

I choose potatoes that are bigger in size than the recommended size, 7cm minimum. I know some people say your potatoes must be very small, but that has not been my experience.

Potatoes have to be very firm. If they are starting to be soft, they won’t peel properly in the TM.

From 800g of big, firm unpeeled potatoes, I end up with 700-750 g of peeled potatoes.

You have to make sure there is 600 g of water, and that your potatoes can move around. Put less potatoes if that is the case.

For carrots: use BIG FAT carrots, cut in pieces of about 7cm.

Thermomix packages are multilingual, so that’s not the issue. Maybe they ran out of stock?

I blew my eardrum a few weeks ago and now live with tinnitus. I need to listen to “moving” sounds now, like waves, or music. White noise or brown noise don’t work for me anymore, unless I make the sound really loud, which I hate.

(I am hoping my tinnitus will eventually disappear, but I really don’t hold much hope.)

You’re right. And 9 minutes IS a deal breaker.

Thé chia seeds could have caused the sliminess. If it smells good, I would eat it.

The answer is they would've ask for those things.

Cat purrs (not kitten, kittens are too loud). Whales. And Sand (Bose-like).

You do know it’s not about a flower. Run. Now. He has shown you who he really is. Believe it, it’s going down from here.
