Giving you a heads up as a Onyx Boox Nova 3 owner. These devices are poorly supported. You'd get maybe a year of "updates", meaning the bundled apps are updated. But after that you are on your own.

It's a brilliant e-reader don't get me wrong, and I'll take it over a Kobo or a Kindle any day. But go in assuming that you'd want to keep it offline.

Spyro 1-3. First game set the mood. Second game refined the formula, last game had fun with it. Still play it to this day.

Because years ago I made my PC password with Capslock on since a warning would show.

So genius 13 year old me said, "hey even if someone knew my password, they'd never know how it was inputted."

So my actual wake key is capslock.

Only my PC uses this old password method now, everything else is passphrase+uniquekey

Like google+lemmyworld

Depends the OS.

Windows its Space

On Linux shift since space will fill in the password field with spaces

Need iOS support, and the ability to send many files. Looks cool though.

My reason is that it’s extremely buggy. I find it looses the plot if you are moving more than 1 file at a time, and it often can’t find paired devices even if they are on the same network. Plus it’s over bloated with no default configuration. I.e. I just want to send files. I don’t want it to act as a mouse pointer. And disabling it for each and every device is tedious.

Granted it’s better than any other alternative apps I’ve found. Which is why it’s installed, even on my iPad.

API changes, I use to use Infinity for Reddit and it was good. Then they killed it effectively.

So I moved to Eternity for Lemmy until support dropped. Now I'm on Voyager.

Good apps design keeps me using a platform and I like the slower pace of Lemmy. I still use reddit for time to time especially for smaller communities. But do my part here.

I too install Linux Mint, though Fedora Silverblue and Kinote is another good alternative.

You can do this with 10 but not 11. Tested on both a VM and hardware.

I too do not understand social media. The best I get is it’s about people shouting into a void and hoping someone else heard you to interact with it, by repeating it, liking it, or shouting back at you.

Hashtags are the only way to organize these posts and you need to add them or no one else will hear your shouts into the void.

I am doing my part 🫡!

 

What killed it, well after reviewing some PS4 gameplay I noticed that it was having audio issues, like it would allow some sounds but not all. It was almost as if it was receiving a 5.1 audio output but was missing the centre channel. Even though the PS4 was set to stereo.

After trying various cables, configs, and boxes. I narrowed it down to this box. Not sure what killed it, whether it's just old, or that it's been powered on for over 5 years straight. But its long service will never be forgotten in the hours of Netflix and Disney Plus it passed through to my recorder.
