As I was repurposing and old PC's power suppy to power my Rpi and some other devices. I thought what if this thing can revive my old kindle. I got the little tabled out of its box, plugged it and left it there for about 2 hours.
Same result as always, battery seems to get fully charged and no response. This time, I removed the backplate, disconnected the battery and connected it back.
Ten years ago my kindle 4 got bricked for no apparent reason. Now I'm getting it jb :abunhdhappyhop:

Neat piece of software.

The only thing that makes me wish pups didn't grow up is when you hold then and their body's muscle tone suddently drops. The rush of emotions I get. :abunhdcry:

I always wondered why anti-aliasing is such a big deal. then I realised my astigmatism wouldn't let me see the problem.

@SteelWool it is also the word for fabric.

I really wanna do more stuff with the chroot in my kindle. but I think I got enough features as it is. Relaying on my Rpi to do the package management and compilation is what keeps me from diving into the depths of the cross-compilation abyss. As the kindle runs an X server, this sparks a bit of curiosity.

@SteelWool Yes, any beefy-pc should be enough to act as the mainframe.

Any old or obsolete computer should be repurposed as a dumb terminal.
