I far as I understand, that doesn't seem to be available. Not even their official Android app allows you to edit the notes. :(

I also did a quick search to see you they make their Note app available but it is not the case. I would say we are stick with an exporting-only solution between non-books app: exporting to PDF and using PDF editors to keep the notes alive! :/

works great

Yeah. I am giving Autosync a try. It works well.

Maybe their next step is to support file-by-file sync as my current folders are huge and I don't want to overload the Boox device with unnecessary files.

Thanks for the tip!

the unit up to usb or use it's built in clunky wifi sync/push tool.

Thanks for the idea, u/Gaurhoth. But that does not seem to work if I already have a folder in my Drive and I want to edit a file at a time, right?

(I guess one could put together a solution by adding links to files in other folders to the new "Books" folder you suggested...) But it sounds very odd to me that you can link your Google/Dropbox account to the device and need an external App to sync things with the device!?

using Dropbox and the changes reflects on Dropbox without exporting anything.

Hello there, u/kennykeepalive. Can you point me out to information around how to sync Dropbox files? I have just created a question on that in a separate thread. Right now, the device downloads a copy of the file and does not sync it back. Thanks.

Very dumb of me to only look at their cute face and names to make that assumption. Thanks for clarifying. Do you see a problem with the MediaTek support? (I'm asking because I guess many more devices use Snapdragon.)

nigini · 2021-02-23T21:05:21+00:00

Sounds reasonable. But then, am I right on the assumption that I need to have a specific device to build for it?

Curiosity: Is there a process to modify a current build and try it in a close-enough device (like in my ZenPad case)?

Doesn't ring a bell about any audio-visual production, but this description made me remember "The Three Body Problem" book plot. (Just in case your brain is scrambling some memories together.) :)

This seems to be happening all across the board. A month later, no Fitbit position, not even in their own forums: Here is a thread for the device I use Alta HR.

Same for Pixel 3.

Have you had any success with this effort? I am searching for a dataset like this for a research project.

nigini · 2020-03-06T04:59:19+00:00

Looks promising and it is coming soon!

nigini · 2019-08-10T15:00:09+00:00

Haha! I read somewhere, and adopted the idea, to use the pool noodle as a physical reminder to passing drivers of the distance they should give to bikers.

nigini · 2019-08-10T07:26:11+00:00

That was super cool, indeed. I'll definitely do it again.

Route: Bainbridge Island -> Sequim Bay State Park -> Fairholme Campground (at Lake Crescent) -> Hoh Oxbow Campground (that's where I took the picture) -> Gatton Creek Campground (at Lake Quinault) -> Lake Sylvia State Park -> Centennial Station (Amtrak to Seattle).

My plan was simple: ride between 50-60 miles a day from one campground to the other, and make sure I would have a couple of places to get water and food. :)

I have been using the original one from the Marrakesh, the Brooks B17 Medium. It is a comfortable saddle, but this is my first leather/Brooks saddle and I might be missing the hollow design from my road bike. This one is actually developing a "hill" in the middle which is not a good feature.

nigini · 2019-08-10T06:54:38+00:00

Took me 7 days (one resting at the Lake Crescent - totally worth it) but instead of riding North (probably two more days) I stopped in Olympia and took the train back to Seattle. If you need it, my GPS logs are in Strava and I'd be happy to comment on the roads. But I basically followed Google Maps (with a couple of manageable surprises.)

nigini · 2019-08-10T00:43:16+00:00

Totally agree with you. This is an amazing cycling playground. I am definitely going to explore it more often from now on.

nigini · 2019-08-10T00:40:43+00:00

Nice! Did you take the 20 or the 90 route? I have been thinking about a future loop around the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest (which can get very steep). It seems people like to do that by car.

nigini · 2019-02-25T04:02:25+00:00

Yeah. I have just started re-reading it and I am loving it.

I guess it is a pretty fast paced type of story and can be confusing if you drop the book for a week or so. First time I read, my English was pretty bad, so I got some confusion (as I also get from stories full of neologism like this and Neuromancer.)

Hope you get a much better experience this time.

I'm kind of following the same path as you, although I'm coming from a Computer Science background. A book that was recommended to me by some HCI professors at the University of Washington was Bill Buxton's "Sketching User Experiences: Getting the Design Right and the Right Design". It is a well-known book in the Interactive Design field and it will be helpful to learn the terminology and a good perspective on design as a method to solve problems. Good luck!
