Moon + Reader Pro V10.5 sync issues with Google Drive

Well I was lucky that my synchronization of my books in Google drive with Moon + Reader Pro didn't have any problems... The Newest update ended that.🤦

Update:

I've managed to get all but one of my tablets/ereaders working on the new scheme.

My Samsung Galaxy Tab A 6 7 inch (2016) on Android 5.1.1 that's still supported by Moon Reader. It has successfully linked with Google Drive but I'm getting a com.google.common.base.CharMatcher error when I try to synch my books. I've backed up the app, uninstalled the app, restarted the tablet, reinstalled the app and restored from backup but didn't work.

Do I have any other option beyond waiting for an update to fix?

Boosted as a pack in game for Xbox, an early game available for Xbox Live play and a Nintendo DS game, also covering a fan made sequel. This is...

MechAssault!

Sarna's Bad Mech series returns with this classic Inner Sphere Assault mech, designed as a Headquarters unit for the SLDF, produced in small numbers and even less survived the Succession Wars with a decent array of weapons for all ranges but could suffer from ammunition issues, a battle computer capable of handling brigade level forces and mediocre armor... That are not so much a problem if used for its intended purpose but the chaos of the Aramis Civil War (that caused the destruction of the factory in Caph) and forcing the unit to the front lines didn't help its survivability but surviving units got Helm Memory Core updates during the Clan Invasion... Here's the Cyclops.

The Many Voices explore a heavy mech designed by Kallon Industries based on the Black Hawk onmimech, with a speed of 64.8 KPH, 13 Tons of armor, 4 jump jets for added mobility, 12 double heat sinks to handle its all energy loadout makes it a tough cookie in the battlefield against the Clans, here's the Penetrator.

As the Star League procurement bureau looked for a replacement for the Crab, Blue Shot Weapons (sounds more like a Viagra Saleman) designed a medium mech to take its place but delays made the mech appear during the Amaris Civil War and even more delays as Blue Shot didn't have General Kerensky current shipping address. 🤦

The design became a House Steiner mech but production ceased because of the decline of the Succession Wars but restarted with upgrades from the Helm Memory Core to fight the Clans. With its mobility, jump jets and mostly energy weapons loadout make it a capable raider. Here's the Starslayer.

The Many Voices explore a heavy mech designed by GM to serve as an update to their Marauder design... But the fall of the Star League put this design in a drawer, not to reappear until the time of the Clan Invasion where it was produced as a countermeasure to Clan mechs like the Timber Wolf. Here's the Maelstrom.

Mechanical Frog continues his spotlight on planets in the Inner Sphere with a world with a pleasant climate, but with a water table too alkaline for human consumption or crop irrigation... Colonized by the rogue remnants of an AFFS unit after a conflict with the Taurian Concordat during the Reunification Wars that after a generation turned to piracy. This planet is for pirates what Galatea and Outreach were for mercenaries, a base for the scourge of the seas of stars since the times of the Star League, this is the world of Tortuga Prime.

The Battletech free short story for May 2026 "The Goliath Syndrome" by D. G. P. Rector is now available from Catalyst Game Labs store (also a new Shadowrun story).

From the Product Page:

WALKING AMONG GIANTS...

During Operation Guerrero, as House Marik stabs deep into the Lyran Alliance’s flank, Lieutenant Santiago of Santiago’s Steel Saints puts the Inner Sphere’s latest battlefield technology—battle armor—to the test. Against unarmored infantry, a battle-armor suit can make its wearer feel invincible…but BattleMechs will remind them how small and vulnerable they truly are…

So I do like the magnetic cover that comes with the B6 but I don't trust it to protect from a fall and it took a while after someone made the bumper case to make it with the snooze/wake flap and I finally received it from Ali Express.

It has a nice fit, reinforced corners, cutouts for the microphones, speaker, USB port and power button, the snooze/wake function works and comes in a variety of flap colors with a clear case so you can decorate it if you want.

Here's the link:

Wanted to read the newest series by J. N. Chaney and this time teaming up with Nicholas Sansbury Smith of Hell Divers fame. They bring a story of a couple of retired marines that survived contact with a mysterious alien species for one more mission... And things happen.

If you like action packed stories, this won't disappoint. Can't wait for the next book coming soon.

Science Insanity continues their own irreverent take on one of the most infamous Battletech factions, our favorite techno cult of murderous religious fanatics with an affinity for cyborgs, denonating nuclear weapons like fireworks and using LAMs like it was the First Succession War... The Word of Blake!

This video will cover the Jihad so everyone please get your Geiger counters...
