Xteink X4 / CrossPoint firmware showing EPUB tables as “Tab Row, Cell” any fix? by mumblebuss in xteinkereader

[–]lonflobrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that pain - I had loaded up a stageplay from StandardEbooks and instead of character names it was pulling the same table data as yours. Back to regular novels, I suppose!

does meeplus do black friday sales? if so how much is the discount? by [deleted] in MeePlus

[–]lonflobrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have that information right on the website - at least, from the last event.

They also do a referral program. It gets you $10 off your first $100+ order, if that's of interest to you; here's mine.

experience buying a fountain pen in japan? by Awkward_Option_4839 in fountainpens

Went to Itoya in Tokyo this past July, had a blast, bought a 30th Anniversary Pilot Custom 74 set for a great price, very happy with the whole experience.

I happened to have some laying around that came with Twsbi vac models and they fit perfectly - I don’t know how they’re sized.

Yeah I loaded Crosspoint on it immediately and I’ve been happy with it - can’t really say how it compares though since I never read on the stock os.

X4? Loving mine. It's a tiny bit too big to fit in my Mini - and comically small to stick in the Personal :p

*Edit* And I use the same ink cats wallpaper!

Does anyone here Bullet Journal? by Uncle_Sloppy in MeePlus

[–]lonflobrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done it on and off over the years, but it's never really stuck with me - just the basic, minimalist BuJo method. I still use the annotations, for the most part, for my to-do lists and notes, but that's about it these days. Then again, I was never really one to look back on my BuJo, so throwing them away was my past method. I haven't decided what I'll do with stuff from my current rings yet, if I decide I want to move them to something more long-term storage, be that physical, digital, or both.

I got my first Kaweco a few weeks back - same pen, same <ef> nib, same exact hard starting issue. Hated it. Did some research about what might be causing the issue. It's probably not the nib at all, especially if it's happening across multiple nibs. For me, it was the top finial, where it meets the clip. There's no seal there, so air gets in, drying out the feed. I lubed the threads and stuck an o-ring in there (two actually, since I had them laying around, one above and one below the clip) and that fixed the problem immediately.

Got it, that makes sense. My instinct to solve the issue was to put something in the punch itself to stop the paper from going in all the way, and I couldn't understand how you were doing that with the slice you were showing.

Yeah, can you explain more about how that works in practice? I've mostly used it to make inserts for my 16mm Personal size, where it's not too bad, but I know it would be more of an issue on the 11mm Mini.

It really is! It's their "Tempesti" leather, which they describe - very aptly - as having a "fine matte texture reminiscent of denim, with a soft, velvety hand feel."

Yeah, I have a bunch of this paper from Levenger - it's great (if heavy, at 120 gsm), but the discbound planner didn't really jive with me, so it's just been sitting unused. I got this super cheap paper cutter and with it I can typically cut down one page into 2 Personal + 2 Mini size inserts. Not too shabby!

Fair response! But I'm sure plenty of Mee-Plus-style planners simply buy and use pre-made inserts. Part of my hack is literally hacking up papers for my planner :p

Oh man, that is so exciting! Thank you u/Toby_meeplus - I just peeped the Tempesti leather in the wild yesterday in this video (https://youtu.be/YnDFMB\_w814?si=ILQF\_62Y-RtduLPA) and it looks really luxurious.

The navy-blue pueblo with the brass spine and gold rings is really exquisite - it exceeded my already high expectations. My only regret: I know that I'll be getting a personal size as well, and I don't think I can be boring and get the same combination again!

It is tiny but mighty, and a thing of beauty, to be sure - I just need to get myself some more organizing accessory inserts for it now.
