Real answer: there are a lot of stupid people in America. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@sfleetucker

Yup! I added my own numbers because theirs were black on black debossed.

Got a new NAS. Made my own mod before I even turned it on. 😹

Well, and in Britain, “pants” means something completely different. Wonder which version they’re intending to use? 😹

@th3j35t3r

Still going 10 hours later, but I’ll need to watch the last two hours just to be sure!

@Smersh

So…is it a hoax? Or is it real? I’m asking this because there are conflicting articles.

@Kurtroedeger @PurpleDragon

Well, that’s true! 😹

@stueytheround

Cyan and magenta!

@MotherDucker

Note that I’ve owned my Oasis since it came out and the only issue is (expected) battery life degradation. Other than that, it’s been perfect. I wanted the Colorsoft to be perfect too, but it clearly isn’t.

@Kurtroedeger

Flushed out or fleshed out? 💩

@th3j35t3r

JFC. 🙀

For those who’ve been considering…. The Kindle Colorsoft has a major manufacturing defect. Not sure if it’s hardware (likely) or software (nah) but it’s annoying. If you can check the screen out in-person before purchasing, I suggest you do so. Or buy from a reputable dealer that offers a no questions asked return policy, like Amazon or Best Buy. (Look at the yellow streak along the bottom of the reader just above the bezel.)

@janallmac @AlphaCentauri

Yup! I’d share it with you! That way you’d only have to pay half of whatever you were going to pay!

@AlphaCentauri

What I’d love to see is a rich, silent, angel partner. Someone with enough money that paying $5000 a month is literally a rounding error to them. They don’t want influence. They don’t want special treatment. They just want CoSo to survive long-term.

@Fiikus_goddess

And Annie got one too. 😹

She’s staying downstairs on strike.

@AlphaCentauri

I wonder if there’s a way to increase community funding engagement without taking money from brands - which is effectively advertising no matter what you call it or how much you limit it. Brands are going to brand. It’s their sole purpose of being.

…having a fugue right in the middle of a sentence? 😹

@AverageCitizen @stueytheround

Well, it’s interesting to say “yes” for different reasons, too. Maybe you want to give brands the freedom to post but you don’t want them to be spammy? But any brand post is spammy by definition. It’s not technically an ad but it’s still someone trying to steal your attention with a brand related post. To me, if that’s all an account is, I do not personally welcome them here.

@InvaderGzim

Well, and CoSo has always been anti-advertising. If a company like NPR wanted to be a “contributing member” they would do so only for platform support, not for editorial priority. But yeah…not really sure how moving from a town (in your analogy) to a city would make things better, unless it helped us move the needle toward self-sufficiency. If we got a Stephen King and a million new users tomorrow and not a single one paid, would we be better off or worse?
