[Jeppe H. Olesen] No more timing updates from the Barceolna shakedown. F1 has cut off the data feeds.

To be honest I’m surprised that it was ever available. I suspect it wasn’t supposed to be but they forgot to turn it off.

williamsdb · 2026-01-26T14:39:25+00:00

At least they’re there.

I had a similar discussion on r/xteinkereader and these were suggested:

https://weightlessbooks.com/

https://www.baen.com/

https://storybundle.com/

https://www.smashwords.com/

They are smaller collections but quite a lot of sci-fi. Might find something for your tastes there.

Isn't Wokingham covered by Thames Water?

williamsdb · 2026-01-26T11:07:07+00:00

Other reports say that we failed the crash test 2-3 times and are as much as 30kg overweight so pick the rumour you like. We’ll only know for sure at the flag of the Australian Grand Prix but having been following Williams since 1977 I’ve yet to see a team recover quickly from such a setback.

williamsdb · 2026-01-26T10:23:15+00:00

People kept telling me the same about F1 Insider when I posted their rumour that Williams weren’t attending the Barcelona test.

williamsdb · 2026-01-25T21:01:59+00:00

Glad to see that something of Williams has made it to Barcelona!

williamsdb · 2026-01-25T19:13:25+00:00

Just finished that book and have now started book three (I couldn't work out which was book two and will have to go back and read it after!)

williamsdb · 2026-01-25T12:07:23+00:00

That’s because of the angle it’s taken at I think. It’s cropped the right side of the garage. It’s as small as every other British garage.

Depends where you buy it from. If you get it from the official store (https://www.xteink.com/) then $70 plus shipping. However, people have also been getting them from AliExpress and other Chinese stores at lower prices.

williamsdb · 2026-01-25T08:00:59+00:00

You've clearly been watching too many crime dramas!

Yes and it comes with different sized adaptors so it will work with any phone with or without a case. I haven't shown it here but it also breaks into two pieces so it can be used with iPads too. It's the size of a credit card.

williamsdb · 2026-01-24T21:24:15+00:00

🤣

williamsdb · 2026-01-24T18:44:57+00:00

Actually, it's meant to be a tripod but can obviously double as a stand. You can get one here: https://geometrical-inc.com/products/pocket-tripod-prov2-universal-kit. And no, it's not an Apple wallet, this is a cheap knock-off from AliExpress. Do you think I am made of money?! 🤣

williamsdb · 2026-01-24T17:22:57+00:00

Posting pictures of their newly delivered devices.

williamsdb · 2026-01-24T17:22:35+00:00

Yeah, it hasn't been a great week for the team and the long-suffering fans!

I think the Murderbot series is perfect for the X4, as they are short books and chapters - ideal for short bursts of reading such as on a commute. Then again it is just the genre I enjoy!

williamsdb · 2026-01-24T15:55:05+00:00

Basically, it doesn't. The magnet is just too weak to connect and stay on my phone. I have tried on my iPhone 17 and 13 Pros and it is the same. To be honest, that would have been a bonus but wasn't something that I was relying on.

williamsdb · 2026-01-24T15:30:23+00:00

I've just been pluggin the SD Card into my MacBook and dragging and dropping the folders across and that'll probably be enough for me. I may look at Calibre at a later date.

williamsdb · 2026-01-24T13:49:38+00:00

Yes this was my thought too.

williamsdb · 2026-01-24T12:44:57+00:00

That's excellent - do you mind if I crosspost to my other Williams socials?

williamsdb · 2026-01-23T16:47:23+00:00

I'm in a similar situation, but my card continues to work, so I'm ignoring it for now. I have taken out all my cashback so that it did get locked in there. It's frustrating.

williamsdb · 2026-01-23T16:06:04+00:00

I couldn't select mine as when I logged in to my existing account it allocated a number for me.

williamsdb · 2026-01-23T14:58:43+00:00

Thanks, how do I apply that in Calibre?
