Hold the IP, harvest cash - by license or court, eliminate running costs. Presuming Weta has not open sourced all of their processes, they’re basically now a patent troll for anything previously developed.

I guess printing a correct headline of “sued for copyright infringement “ isn’t click baity enough. Because that’s all it is. Dbrand is lucky they haven’t been sued by the board manufacturers for creating an unlicensed derivative work (which is what the case art is, just as the photo of a sculpture, even stylized, has been deemed derivative - especially when the reproduction is intended to represent the original).

Indeed. I find having the interface with the flicking nub above where you just push in. It feels more organic; a more natural motion.

One reviewer mentioned disappointment that it’s still a full 11.7" long and 2" thick. I realize that some people are not built for that kind of size, but I enjoy the heft and find the ergonomics of the original pleasing. I find that it stands out among smaller equipment and any substantial reduction would limit the versatility and, quite frankly, my overall enjoyment.

Wait…they sell games, too?

It ticks the boxes - not Amazon, stylus, and eInk.

You’re going to need an os, even if it’s just embedded to access a file system and manage resources.

I bought one and it kinda sucked. I wanted a digital library for the tens of thousands of pages of references I use at work, and a sketch pad would be a bonus. It’s a cool device but the screen is just too slow to be useful and the application space for android and drawing is…thin.

You can get a reliable plug and play printer for as little as $500-600, though it will take 15-20 hours, if you’re technically minded, to learn to get the files to print. The material will be around $30-40 at retail prices (it’s generally only sold by the kg).

You can likely send the files to a print house and get them printed for just $100-200.

(Someone will claim that the $99 Ender and a roll of $9.99 genetic PLA will work. They are technically correct in the same way that your grandmother can edit photos for free by setting up Arch Linux on a $100 PC from Goodwill.)

Isn’t that a Boox? eInk, stylus, android, can buy direct.

When I worked in an office I’d head out to my car and lay the seat back for 15 minutes of shuteye.

Dew points of 90-95F? JFC that’s nuts.

I married my wife because she was the first person to teach me to laugh at myself.

And they’re probably still there. I haven’t gone back and looked lately, but I did the delete whack a mole for about three weeks until my account was empty save for my up/down votes. It’s still empty.

But I looked up something a couple weeks ago and went to the Reddit link …and one of my comments was right there in the thread. There were others I could find via google, but not search on Reddit. They’re only there in context.

Yeah, but can you do it offline/without an active internet connection - the preinstalled windows Netflix app can.

Most of the things you say are missing are installed by default, though some require you to know how to use the command line. Which reminds me…how do you install the Netflix app on Linux? I’d like to watch some shows on my new laptop while I’m on the train.

They’re wrong, of course.

You don’t have to enter a license key.

“I own the only patent - I will license it for just $10/square inch.”

And that’s a short story about how eInk never got commercialized.

You guys are using apps?
