So I have been living with my Colorsoft and great enjoy it, but the one thing that I absolutely hate are the built in templates, mainly because I believe them to be too dark (like the dot page -- the dots are so flipping huge and dark that they interfere with my writing). Since Amazon isn't going to let us install our own, and since they seem to not have any desire to improve them, do you all just live inside of premade PDFs with a million pages in them?

I recently tried an AiPaper to try out and their templates are delightful and you can add to them (shocker).

So what are you guys doing for templates for things like better dot paper? I currently just write with a blank page always. Which is boring.

Same setup in my house with two TVs. Both connected to Sonos Beams. If I reduce the volume to zero, I can’t use the tv remote to increase the volume. I have to go to the Sonos app and get it up above zero to get the tv to be able to control the volume again. My Sony tv doesn’t have this issue - just these two TCLs.

Anyone know what the issue could be?

I am having an issue and I think I may just need to factory reset this device and start over. I'm running NickleMenu, KOReader, Bookends, and BookFusion on this, and it is *slow*. I mean, I tap a page to move forward and it will take a moment to do it...not snappy at all and I don't know what could be causing the slowdown.

I am not sure what I'm doing wrong as I see all of these amazing transformations. For the month of June, I was on 3mg of Reta with the last week being 4mg. I started back at the end of march. I've lost 15 pounds since march, but a whopping 1 whole pound this entire month. All the while, I have been forcing myself to eat the right amount of protein and calories, walk 3 miles every day, Lift heavy 4 days a week to maintain muscle, and my weight loss has been glacial. I still have at least 20-25 pounds to lose. But it's just not coming off at any rate I'd call decent.

I'm at 208 now. I am eating 1800-2100 calories per day, which should be well under maintenance, particularly with my activity level. Barely moving the needle so I don't know what to change next.

Would love some advice because this isn't going anywhere near what I'm seeing others get in this place.

I have missed two weeks of shots…was at 3mg. Should I restart at 3 or lower?

Through a series of unfortunate events, I find myself with a bottle of Tirz instead of my Reta and I'm wondering what I should do with the Tirz. Do people stack these? I bought a few bottles from a friend and didn't realize one of them was the wrong one. I realized it before I reconstituted it, but am tempted to try using it. Or should I just figure out how to swap it? Any advantage to stacking?

I haven’t been able to get ahold of the guys that installed my lights and need some repairs. If you know of anyone, please hit me up.

1. In a perfect world, I would have either a button or a voice command where I could tell my car "hey, we are about to go into a car wash, please do not freak the eff out." I assume there are a bunch of settings I could disable and then have to reenable...is there an easier way? It tormented me driving through.
2. I tried scheduling charging -- what I want is this: "Even if I plug you in at 5pm, I do not want you charging until 11pm when rates are down." And I want it to stick.

Would appreciate the group wisdom.

I installed qwen3.6-27b in lm studio on my Mac Studio. I then hooked up continue in vs code and pointed it at the endpoint.

I then asked “what model are you?”

“I am Claude by Anthropic”

“Really? I thought you were qwen3.6”

“Actually, I’m Kimi, an ai assistant developed by Moonshot AI! Not Qwen3.6 (which is from Alibaba)”

Now I’m totally confused.

Hi all. Best model for coding and writing? Trying to save the tokens on Claude for when I really need it.

I have an Alaska lounge membership. The website seems to indicate I can use escape at phoenix airport, but the escape site doesn’t mention Alaska at all, so I’m dubious.

So I’m gold and my last two flights the FA has not acknowledged it nor offered me a drink or chocolate. Has that perk gone away or am I just drawing bad cards? My wife, also gold, equally snubbed.

Not a fun interview. No sense of humor. Felt bad for Tim trying to engage him as a human and not a political robot.
