lol, literally got fwded two tweets by seperate anthropic employees that copypasta-d each other’s “sincere personal message” (both accenting how it’s “not a marketing stunt!”)… how dumb is this gonna get before it finally blows over?
x4 has backlight, the new ones (v5? x4.5?) dropped it again for some reason? i got an original for myself and the backlight one for my wife actually :D
a fair, didn’t read that properly! guess for tablet replacement that does sound nice, but for reading i think i’d still prefer something like the xteink (actually very curious if the size will be an issue but i always hate how heavy the paperwhite feels)
i have no data on it, but i’d honestly doubt you’d get much power savings when watching video?
also high refresh rate displays were stupidly expensive last time i checked. there is, after all, just a single company making them…
why would you run android on eink anyway? refresh rates are garbage for anything but reading and owning a distraction free device is one of the biggest upsides of ereaders, for me anyway
i did root my kindle (got it as a present) and even a terminal is horrid to use… actually just ordered an xteink and really looking forward to an unlocked bootloader from the factory ^^
p.s. also i just got an email that they released a newer version which seems to have a better soc (don’t read comics but if that’s a reason maybe they’re already improving on that) edit: and it’s still half the price, most of which is probably the display itself tbf D:
the german far right leader (female) is married to an indian woman and when asked about how that relates to her plans of deporting brown people she said her wife ‘does not count because she was adopted by a white family in switzerland’
i mean, they also run a populist platform aimed at poor people with a libertarian program to wipe out social assistance though, so why am i even suprised by the hypocrisy?
