severely underpowered camera

Bruh, the first iPhone didn't have a camera

I have a lot of shot to say about Steve Jobs, but he knew what asthetics he wanted. He would loathe the current trend with phones having a camera bulge. Look at all the iPhones released under him, look at the back of them. If they had a camera it was flush with the back of the phone.

I have never been a good speller, and this app nor my phones keyboard do spellchecking.

I mean, spellings of words change all the time. Hell, when I was in school you'd lose points on papers for spelling "doughnut" as "donut", but now that shorter version is concidered a correct spelling and is no longer tagged by spell check.

We as a society can literally will this spelling to be concidered correct through shear usage.

sigh

Believe me a lot of us are fully aware of how stupid this shit is. A lot of us are fully accepting of the LGBT community and welcome them with open arms. It's incredibly exhausting watching floroda (and all other deep red states and the fed) doing stupid shit like this because the theater of doing it wins them brownie points with their voters.

It's all good man. Different people have different wants and needs. Your hands are a bit full with other stuff so setting up an ereader the way I have with mine is just too much om your already full plate.

Have a wonderful day and I hope you can find a good solution for yourself.

The process isn't hard or time consuming, but I understand, this sorta stuff isn't for everyone. I'm just a huge proponent of "this is my device it'll do as I say"

I have a Kobo n437, I swaped the internal sd card with a 32gb one and installed InkBox/Quill OS.

You'll need a bit of linux skills to use a bigger storage solution to its full potential. The project is currently on hiatus as they port the OS over to the pine64 e-reader.

Worth noting otherwise, currently pictures in epub formated books don't load (at least on mine don't know about other models) so youll want to convert them to pdf.

That entire company was like that. Any minor issue, misunderstanding on their end only, or just their own wild incompetence on display always had both companies entire chain of commands on the email list.

I have a long list of complants about this publicly traded company's dangerous incompetencies.

My most satisfying email was when some project manager at the business partner company asked me why I wasn't in a teams meeting to let their team test their software on our machine. This was an email basically everyone in both companies was on. My boss, his boss, that guy's boss, all the way up the ceo, and her boss and her boss' boss, etc.

I replied all with screenshots and an email that basically read "hey, you kicked me out of this meeting now twice. I can't be there if I've been removed".

I got an email back a minute later where she only replied to me with a sheepish "no i didn't"

No, I know, but there appears to be a collective shame here over him. At least from everyone who knows better at least. This moronic con man with the IQ of pudding somehow won, again, but this time with the popular vote. And there's not just the embarresment that he is, its also the long term damage he's doing to our reputation. I don't live that far from canada, and I have personally noticed the dip in the number of canadian plates I see around here, and it hurts. I have more to say but I feel like I'd just be ranting.
