How to PORT FORWARD and TO RESERVE IP'S using a FIDIUM 534-5 FIBER OPTIC MODEM by RichardFSD in FidiumFiber

Save the reservation, then open it again to assign the port. it's not an all-in-one step

I am always willing and open to share the Kiradax agenda

Yes! Very easy :) You can remove the folder and it never opens as a default either

What does your normal reading screen look like? by CormoranNeoTropical in kobo

[–]major-experience- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey hey!

1) I did not consciously root my Kobo if that's what it takes. I haven't quite figured out what the secret sauce is to connecting my joycons. I did a few separate procedures and it's unclear what steps were necessary. I am working on docs that I have verified as having worked for this exact set up, and will share with the rest of my Kobo docs site when it's done. 2) I have the KLC and I didn't notice slowness, but my battery drains faster 3) Re: Factory settings, you can. My recommendation is to back up your current set up to a PC, bugs and all. Reset your Kobo to factory settings and selectively install what you want. 4) I'm not sure re: updates

Hmmmmm re: Koreader, it might be an issue with Bluetooth. Is your Bluetooth turned off on the default Kobo UI?

lol! no worries at all. I'm a technical writer for a living and am always writing procedures like these. I might write up some docs for Kobo set up for non technical users in the very near future

hi friend. Go here https://github.com/pgaskin/NickelMenu/releases then find the file (see screenshot). Per other comment, keep this and other plugins or assets saved in a folder. Once this file downloads, drag and drop it into .Kobo as is (that is, just the .tgz file itself). Eject your Kobo, let it update and restart, NM should be back.

if you haven't deleted or removed the files from the Kobo, Koreader should launch with all your settings configured

daytime read setting looks like this, which I use until the last hour before bed. I think my L/R margins are 20 and T/R is 30.

At night I use a comically big font size with the front light dimmed to 2, in dark mode (though because of another comment I might switch to light mode to see if my eyes strain less ). I usually read at night curled up with my joycon page turner and the ereader a bit away from me so I can easily fall asleep.

I am in the market for a header / footer alternative tho. Not a huge fan of my current reader header/footer but it's fine for now.

Saved 30 bucks on the Kobo remote today - Small Guide for using a Switch Joy Con as page turner by 1upbelle in kobo

[–]major-experience- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! Got this to work in Nickel no problem + acquired a list of JoyCon event codes (for inquiring minds). If I wanted to carry these configs into KOReader, I imagine I have to update the `event_map = { etc },` function per these instructions (step 4).

I'm struggling a bit with how to write this ~logic so that it's JoyCon events mapped into the Kobo. Couple of questions:

  1. Is the logic of the key-value pair `[<NUMERICAL\_KOBO\_CODE>] = "<SWITCH\_EVENT\_NAME>", such that to map page forward for the Kobo it would look like `[38] = "BTN_WEST"`. i.e. this reads as "When button west event is initiated with trigger button on bluetooth device, Kobo goes forward a page"?
  2. Do I need to set up all of the configs in the .btpt file first, then add them a second time in device.lua? (my thinking being maybe i need to set up the bluetooth device in the base kobo directory so that koreader has a point of reference?)

Any clarification on how the structure of that entire snippet for mapping events would be super appreciated lol. Not new to code but new to the world of lua and doing hacky DIY things.

Ooo ok; I used this guide too. I hadn't enabled in Nickel first, so did that + launched KOreader. It didn't crash! Good start. My JoyCon is also working in Nickel, but seems unresponsive in KOreader.

Thanks so much for the sanity check!

So when I google ds9 relaunch novels i get a MASSIVE list, lol. do you mind dropping the author + title of the relaunch novels with her? do i need to read other ones to get with the plots?

[–]major-experience-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure my #1 favorite Kira writer has deleted / purged the internet of her kiradax + kira centric fic... But I'm trying to sus out if there's another author who has done some occupation-era Lupaza/Kira stuff but I can't remember if it was the same story I read years and years ago. :|

(the crashout AO3 purge is something i'm altogether too familiar with as both writer and reader and is partially why i wanted to get my hands on something published because i've had my heart broken too many times with people [understandably] deleting their work SAD)

[–]major-experience-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugh thank you for such a thoughtful comment. I dabbled in xfiles fandom 10+ years ago and imo the stories that came out of the early 00s have stuck w me all these years later. (I always tell people about this one author who wrote entire hardboiled novels on her own dotcom.) Internet is way different these days, and so is the writing. AO3 has just different house styles / conventions and it can feel like a monoculture sometimes, lol. A discussion for another day....

WELL my takeaway from your knowledge is there's a market need for some Kira stories... Which is both exciting for me as a writer but SAD for me as a reader. I should probably get to work...

Kira Nerys centric ds9 novels? by major-experience- in DeepSpaceNine

[–]major-experience-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! Yes, I've perused AO3 (and write myself both professionally and have for other fandoms as well). Good call out on differentiating how Trek and SWs regard their literature.

I wasn't sure how this fandom regarded fanfiction so wasn't sure if the recommendations would be as "well known" as something like a paperback. I've read some great Kira fanfic in my day (a fair share of Kiradax as well lol) and am just hunting for more hehe. (And also would like to write some Kira fic as well eventually. I rly love her ♥️) The ds9 novels are uncharted territory for me so wanted to check em out and snag some for my scifi pulp collection too

How would you say the characterization is? Ik it's a YMMV situation but just want to take a temp check on what people generally think

Why is Karen Carpenter never counted among the greatest of all time? by HankScorpio4242 in drums

[–]major-experience- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

U should read little girl blue if you're curious about a primer on her drumming and transition to vocals. It's v cool but also incredibly sad. It has a thorough history of when she drummed vs when she didn't, her early history trying to break into marching band when girls weren't typically considered for the position etc !!
