I’ve been a MS products fan since Windows Phone, Cortana, and OneNote stole my heart. I loved the great features that Windows 10 and Edge provided out-of-the box. Bing provided better results than Google for some time.

But Phone was never accepted by the market, and with it, Cortana faded away. OneNote hasn’t kept up with the market, and they somehow broke the cursor on mobile. Sticky Notes lost compatibility with Dark Mode. They started pushing ads to Windows start menu, and embedded ads in Edge Collections.

Microsoft makes great software, then fuck it all up. Oh well, back to Linux.

Context?

HE LED AN INSURRECTION! How the hell are we falling for it a second time?

It’s a little bright at night, that’s why I use dark mode, inverting the “paper” and “ink”.

I did a lot of research and ended up buying a Kobo for my wife who was looking to switch from paperback. At the time the Clara HD was the newer model in the size and feature family she was looking for. I made the choice based on e-ink quality, wide compatibility of formats (including public library rental), and price.

Keep in mind that Amazon keeps device prices artificially low by pushing ads to your screen. I have had four different Kindle Fires over the years, and hate how intrusive the advertising is on their devices.

After spending a year or so jealous of my wife’s Kobo Clara HD, I bought myself the then newer Kobo Libra 2. Then she was jealous of my Libra and bought herself one, and gave the Clara to our kid who is a bookworm as well.

We love our Kobos.

The cost of freedom i guess

I’ve tried a few for ios and landed on Bean.

So they’re gonna focus on auditing rich people and corporations, right?

You look great. You’ll crush it!

Heiankyo Alien. It was the cheapest game in the store, so that’s the one my parents let me buy. For a long time it was one of only a couple games I owned–that one and whatever it shipped with… Tetris?

Groomers.

No. I would stay here to work toward improving social programs in the U.S.

That’s neat part, we don’t care.

Perhaps some people would stop punishing their own bodies for the benefit of their employer.

It’s mixed at the tap. At a soda fountain thw water, CO2, and syrup are stored separately and mixed at the tap. Flavor difference is likely the result of a different ratio.

I’m doing my part!
