Boox has official support to play store, while Barnes and Noble you need to search on Internet . I buy books at Kobo, it’s my favorite store now. It’s the only store that I can find decent amount of titles not in English. Do they have an e reader?

Yep there’s so many ways to get someone to quit

There’s only a few screen manufacturers so you probably can find which devices has the same exact screen. It’s had more resolution than my aging eyes can notice.

I’ve used a Barnes and Noble thing before, and my boox is much faster - obviously since it’s 2 newer generations. I don’t buy anything from Amazon. It’s more convenience than anything, they’re a rip off in Australia.

Probably not, I’m talking about the plugin I use. Remotely save, I think it’s called.

You don’t need a server, I use drop box. You can also do Amazon S3 which is more involved but not as hard as a server. And 5 more options.

That’s not so true of the Android app. I do have access to bytecode but changing bytecode to bring feature enhancements is not for the faint of heart.

And storage in their current android app is a major privacy breach.

True. The other day I uploaded a photo that should be portrait instead of landscape. I opened Nemo ( Linux file explorer), right clicked to edit image, fixed it, and automatically my note picked up the change.

Similar thing when storing a 1000 line json in the notes

Yep and the Android app is full of small things to improve, for sure someone would put in contributions for free

Wait does that too remove drm or should I keep using calibre for that?

Boox is the best, I’ve got to read using the app I want (moon reader), got to install whatever news apps I want

You gotta watch that short YouTube about a book called “cultural map”.

It’s gauging various cultures and how they handle different aspects of society. It doesn’t cover openly talking about positivity or negativity since it’s focused on business. But the framework is all the same.

For example it put in words things that everyone knows, like Frenchmen are confrontational, Japanese are very hierarchical. Then it goes into plot twist territory.

Could it be depression?

Anyways, would you be able to recall at the end of the day something nice that happened to you, even if small? Gratefulness is my personal path to inner peace doesn’t matter if big or small. And even if you decide to not take this path, you can use the memory of that good moment to 1 make it happen more often, or 2 invest your time/thoughts to make it even better next time it happens or 3 follow up and build on top of it.

There was this guy, I think a big shot from wired magazine, that would try to sit in a different chair every day, with the goal of breaking his habits, which was his way of getting new ideas.
