The Ratta Supernote A6X2 Nomad is 329USD, cheaper than the devices you found. The A5X2 (bigger) is 505USD though.

Devices I've owned:

• reMarkable 1 (boo subscription!)
• reMarkable 2 (boo subscription!)
• Supernote A5X (happy with this one)

I currently own the Supernote A6X2 and I'm super happy with it. I use it almost every day to diagram stuff for programming. I also read technical books on it. The Supernote A5X (the previous version) was also very good. I just ended up liking the smaller size better.

My favorite feature is that Supernote does NOT require a subscription! The device also has plenty of other features. You can read PDFs and ebooks, of course. You can even install the Kindle app on it, though you can't install any Play Store app. The palm blocking is good. There are gestures to help you write faster. There's a shape tool. Different pencil sizes, highlighters. Paper backgrounds. Hand writing recognition. And you don't need to buy replacement pen tips!

Supernote cons vs reMarkable:

• The Supernote isn't as polished as the reMarkable. The Supernote definitely isn't bad, especially the newer A6X2, but it does feel a notch below reMarkable in terms of the build feel.
• If you really, really, REEEEAAALLY want to pretend you're writing with a pencil and paper, then the reMarkable will be closer to that. Writing on the Supernote is just different. It's more like writing on a notebook with a pen.

I went to one of those corporate places for an oil change ... This fell off sometime on my drive home from work.

Exact same thing happened to me. Ever since then, I do my own oil changes.

Although, there's definitely a startup cost. If you're tight on cash, then I wouldn't recommend it.

I guess the splash shield isn't essential for driving... although, you should probably get it back on at some point. It'll keep the elements out of the engine a bit. Getting water down there will probably lead to corrosion in the future. Not to mention rocks that could dent things down there.

It shouldn't actually be too hard to put it back on. It's usually just held on by plastic screws. You just need to buy replacement screws (a few bucks) and find a screw driver. The hard part would be lifting the car high enough so you can crawl under it. Then just line up the holes and put the screws on.

Watching this post. I still don't fully understand how Usenet works.

I don't use a phone case. I already think phones are too big. Adding a case makes the phone even bigger and even bulkier. I'm usually pretty good at not dropping my phone.

Yes, usually, because I actually did drop it recently. 😅 Although, the screen is fine. It just has a little love tap on the corner. It's got character now. It's got the "worn" look.

Well, clearly this is gonna be something that every republican will oppose, right? Riiiight? The government tracking citizens with a database?? My conspiracy theory neighbor bitches about this all the time. He's gonna oppose this, right?????

I think we’re forgetting the basic fact that we make music because we want to.

Eggs-fucking-actly

Yeah, Reaper is surprising! It's in the Arch repos and Flathub.

I would have been happy if I had to build it from source or download a random deb from their website. But, damn. It's on Linux and easily installable!

Huh. Californian here, I usually only hear people say "village" when talking about towns in poor countries. (I don't agree with this.)

I also want a Linux (not Android) phone. Are those stable yet?

Open Source, permissive! Do what ever you want with my code!

No, not like that!

Mommy, that source available project is claiming to be Open Source™️! 🚨 🚓

I only have 1 project left on GitHub. It's a tiiiiny bit popular. Not huge, but I have a decent amount of stars on it. I know some people use it in automated work flows.

I've actually been thinking about how to get it off GitHub for a while now. Any tips? Ideally without breaking everyone and pissing everyone off? Or at least with minimal disruption...
