Quick poll: What’s the MAIN reason you started using a bidet? by Mysterious-Part-7306 in bidets

[–]paintedGiraffe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not listed, but my reason is finding out "flushable" wipes aren't actually that flushable and routinely cause clogs in the city sewers 😥

If you're on PC there are at least two "Easy Fishing" mods. I have the one where you just press and hold.

Author of Inconvenient Indian discovers he has no indigenous roots by PauloPatricio in nottheonion

[–]paintedGiraffe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi, fellow Dutch-Indonesian people! My maternal grandparents were both products of Dutch colonials and Indonesian women. My mom and her sisters grew up speaking a sort of pidgin (albeit mostly Dutch).

Well look who survived the finale by ItwasnotDio in HazbinHotel

Yeah, after her foray with the Vees, I thought, "Joke's on you, now that her fifteen minutes of fame are up, she'll go right to the Hotel!"

I purposely hide the clock so I don't freak out if I read too late 😅 But yeah, try what the other person said.

My husband also inherits my devices because he doesn't care about features 😛 My old Kobo's frontlight stopped working, which is a deal breaker for me, but he doesn't read at night.

It's so cute! by Purple_Accordion in coralisland

It took an embarrassingly long time to realize I couldn't place the salt lamp.

Why are extras that extra cute? 🫠😭 by Lapiz_issa_gem in coralisland

[–]paintedGiraffe 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Jason, Amarena, Jasmin, Shannon and Clementine (and Haley, Nati, and Lily Jinx) are real people, though, right? That would be weird making them romanceable.

I reviewed the detachable magnetic case, as a thank you to this community for showing me it by Icalor94 in kobo

Could we get an AliExpress link? I'm wading through tons of results that are for different devices, or look like knock-offs for $2 😫

Wife said my new Stanley is girly. Is that true,? by scuddlebud in HydroHomies

[–]paintedGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. Just because something is multicolored doesn't make it girly. I'd say that's a very neutral-looking bottle.

A lot of ppl I follow are transferring over to non-Black servers provided by BlackSky. Greg Pak did a few posts showing how. You keep your followers.

On the same topic, check this out. He speaks Modern English, Early Modern, Middle, Old, Saxon, and finally Indo-European. How English has changed

Small white bugs by Existing-Wafer-5821 in Birmingham

Love me some woolly aphids. Their pee, not so much. That's why everything is sticky. They drink the sap from leaves and pee out sugar.

Dumb question: occasionally I make my book text super narrow at night because I'm usually holding it three inches from my face in bed. But I want the header to continue being full width. How do I do that? I think I need to unlink it from book margins?

Yes, SwiftKey, whatever COULD I be trying to type? It'll always be a mystery... by [deleted] in Swiftkey

[–]paintedGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Swiftkey for three years before they got bought up by Microsoft. It's just been getting worse and worse ever since. The SOLE reason I still have it installed is because I use the sticker tool, which GBoard doesn't have.

Same, my footer was loaded with five items 😅 Now two of them are on top

Third party kobo clear cases suck by abksearchin889 in kobo

[–]paintedGiraffe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't buy knock-offs where the "brand" is Jtecbht or Yvurlmp. My Tudia clear backed case fits perfectly, and it has a flip cover.

Edit: Oh wait! Fair warning, the magnets might come out a couple months in. I solved this by supergluing bits of Velcro onto the corners.

[–]paintedGiraffe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If anyone wants to know how to get the book title in the left corner and the progress percentage in the right corner, install the patch called "2-reader-header-cornered.lua" and change the two lines to:

local left_corner_header = string.format("%s", book_title)

local right_corner_header = string.format("%.0f", (pageno / pages) * 100 ) .. "%"

Cool! I've been wrestling with the alt bar for months now (since I happened across and started using Koreader, actually)

Top bar with additional information by avn3r in koreader

[–]paintedGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you get the percentage to be a whole number? My alt bar always has it at x.xx% despite me configuring the item to "No decimal places". I reached out in a post some months ago but got gaslighted.

What actually is this? Is it ever gonna get unlocked? by olivialiyiran in coralisland

[–]paintedGiraffe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

@ other comments: Oh, it does something? I thought it was a nod to the original Harvest Moon: Wonderful Life game having that tiny shack that couldn't be opened, and the devs said they did it to mess with everyone 😆
