After all thats Reddi… oh wait,. … never mind

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I use a pocketbook since years now.

• crisp display
• eats every format you throw at it
• also bluetooth on board for listening to audiobooks or music. Means no mobile necesarry when going to the beach
• water resistant models, read in the bathtube
• send to pocketbook to receive ebooks via mail
• KOReader compatible with calibre to connect to your selfhosted server
• connection to onleihe or libby

We (3) use Touch HD 3 since several years now. As an upgrade (larger screen and side holding) we just ordered one Era in silver (16gb).

I started with a pocketbook 360, a 5 inch side holding reader. It is nice to see that they go back to another side holder version again, the 360 was, because of this, my favourite.

I went for the ASRock J5040 board, 16gb ram a 500gb m.2 as system using a PCI adapter , 2x4tb ironwolf as ZFS mirror pool, 350 W power supply all in the node 304 fractal case for 550 euro altogether.

Runs proxmox as hypervisor for VM or Container. 6 LXC running motioneye, plex, pyload with openvpn, syncthing, rclone cloud backup and openbookshelf.

Typical power usage is around 20W

That said it could also run on PicoPSU

Not yet. All of the LXC containers run on 2 cores of the 4 and 2gb of RAM and 512MB swap where reserved. I can address more power if needed.

As none of my services run constant on full power the low power of the CPU is not a problem. I serve only my home with it.

Oh that gave me a flashback, I owned one. My first computer while the rest of the people I know had “Commodores, Ataris , Sinclairs” .

I was the unicorn among in the gang. My parents paid an arm and a leg for it.

Some years later I traded it in for my first 128k Mac. I made a Fat Mac out of it by soldering 16 x 64k RAM chips for 1mb. Stacked 4 times for 4mb with seperate row select wires.

From my first money then I bought an Mac SE/30 and a thermo printer.

Good times.

Jep, low carb, no added sugars.

Select food that keeps the blood sugar from going nuts.

I live in europe and do a lot of holidays within europe:

• never ever drink water from the tap during holidays
• brush teeth with bottled water
• always carry a small bottle of sanitizer
• only eat well done cooked food

Never did it different, common sense.

This is a repost from my suggestion some weeks ago:

I use 1DM+ in browser view for those cases on android, view as “reader modus” shows the text only without the web stuff in it. The text is there but just overlapped by the nag.
