🤢

All that effort and an extra thousand dollars to do what any standard laptop can do already

TIL there's a "googlebook" (not to be confused with google books, an unrelated service, lol)

Seems like it's an Android desktop to replace ChromeOS which can run Debian VMs

yay! google invented wsl, sorry i meant gbsl i guess...

I will note that you will likely get condensation. When I had it directly placed on the heatpipes between the GPU and CPU, it puddle water.

To counter it, I added a copper block between the pipes so it can draw it away from the pipes so the cooler can take it away.

Honestly it's kinda overkill.

oh, i see, thanks.

People sensitive to PWM get headaches when looking at PWM screens. Screens which use DC dimming do not rapidly flicker the display to reduce screen brightness.

You can read more by searching the web. Just search DC dimming and PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) screens or display.

Why is dc better than pwm?

The ROG Phones have had this for a while, it doesn't do much

Cool thanks, I had no idea something like this existed

Not exactly like this since I bought mine in Taiwan. But something like this

Do you have a link to where I can find something like that? Sounds interesting and I may want one.

Graphene targets Pixels exclusively (for now) and carries a custom signing key that allows the bootloader to be relocked. Their head guy, Daniel Micay, also happens to be extremely paranoid. This is part of why Graphene is so goddamn hardened.

Lineage covers a far broader spectrum of devices, which means the install process isn't as streamlined.

GrapheneOS upgraded to 24 with a click/touch, i need to manually update LineageOS :\

I bought a watercooler version that was originally designed for a phone. It works pretty well, but mine is running at 100W.

I put it on the heatpipes for my laptop running local LLMs.

+1 for koreader, just bought a used Kindle and installed it with Zen and it is perfect for reading on the 6" screen. Can't attest to manga/comics on it but it's a great reader.

I really like koreader for manga. It's designed to support eink so it has a really clean interface thought it can feel clunky in the menus. Even so, it's really customizable and open source!

As for a small screen, I'm not sure what else can help, but I understand the plight. Personally I feel the ui staying out of the way goes a long way.

I really like this app. It also works awesome with local text to speech engines like Sherpa onnx.

Lately I've been self-hosting my books with Audiobookshelf and using their app for epubs, PDFs, cbzs, and m4b files, the last one being actual audio books. Before that I was using Lithium for epub files and it worked quite well.

Calibre converts easily.

I use FBReader. It can process CBRs. It reads ePubs and pdfs just fine too. I've been using it for years now. It has a lot bad reviews though. Alternatively I use Librera, it also processes CBRs and CBZs.

Seems gimmicky. A Peltier device running at less than 3.5W (because that is shared with the fan and status LED) is probably only moving 3.5W of heat off the phone body, and then the fan appears to be blowing that heat right back onto the phone body. Plus, if you use this with the magnet pad, you probably aren't even making good thermal contact with the phone body in the first place. Probably not a coincidence that the press release of an article spends all its time on how little power it draws and how tasteful the LED is without any mention of temperature impacts

This looks like exzctly the kind of solution I might need, thank you so much

I think its a dead project unfortunately, but maybe someone will fork it.

Seenva will detect text and frames and use smart zooming to make comics readable on smaller screens.

Episteme.
