I only read ebooks on an e-ink device, in my case it's an Amazon Kindle. I would love to have a more open device but from what I've seen the only really open e-ink device is the Pinenote which I think is just to big for me to use as an e-reader. Also, while the Kindle works I will keep using it, since I was able to install Koreader on it and just keep it offline(I really hope that we will be able to transfer books from our pc to the Kindle without wifi with Koreader in the future).

I think it would be a waste to get a new device just because I dislike Amazon and would like a more open device. If I stumble upon the "perfect" e-reader for me I will probable give this one away and buy a new one.

I've never read books on a phone or a tablet.

I think they're talking about the Guten Tag quote. If I remember correctly that is what you hear when your spy is in disguise and starts talking with an enemy soldier (I don't remember the chain guns so I'm guessing this is from a different game).

Hey man.

I hope that whatever happens with you and your wife, that you'll be happy and have a bright and good future.

Ahh I see. I'm not using that so that's why I didn't see it, thanks for the heads up :-)

Yeah I did that and found plenty of Fossify apps but not the launcher. I also tried to update the repositories and search again but to no avail.

I also searched Duckduckgo and the F-Droid website but did not find it like that either.

Do you have a link? I can't seem to find it on F-Droid.

Yeah, Osm is really good where I live, actually sometimes better/more up to date than Google Maps but finding businesses is more difficult.

I resolve this for my self by going to the website of the business, finding the address and putting it manually into Osm. Yes it's more work but it works and is worth it for me.

I once read that they planned on a sequel but then the terrorist attacks on the world trade center happened so they cancelled it.

Something about not wanting to make fun of terrorism anymore.

Wow I checked out Breezy and it seems it's exactly what I have been looking for in a weather app. I've been using Clima for some time now but it was never really a good fit for me. Thanks for the recommendation.

Caps lock because it doesn't do anything like enter or other keys might do and if I see the light blink then I know that the computer/keyboard is not frozen.
