I really wish companies would stop redesigning things ... I wanna buy the same shoes I bought in 2013, and I want the same devices I had in 2016, just with USB-C and updated guts.

The look of the OS didn't need to change, even if the setting list needed to expand or the security backend needed an upgrade.

Heck, I put extra work into making sure every PC OS still looks like the one I used in 2012.

    Turning? There was never enough fraud to justify any effort, less you consider gerrymandering and unfair polling practices, or other efforts to limit voting rights or fair outcomes.

    Well, I just dug around the whole market for a small eink reader, and determined I want an x4 with usb-c and a warm front light.

    I don't need a touch screen or any other non-sense. Just a charging interface compatible with everything else, a decent screen, and the ability to read in the dark.

    I have an old Boox Nova Pro, but it's screen refresh went to pot with an OS update, and I kinda stopped using it.

    I liked the idea of the Palma and have looked at other ~3inch devices over the years, but the Palma is too pricey and the rest have been about equal in price or junk.

    Was tempted to jump on the Bigme bandwagon with one of the recent releases, but I really don't need anything that fancy.

    The x3-x4 price range is about perfect, but what's the point of epaper with no light or USB-C in 2026?

    Bah, what are these people doing?

    Who wants to bet the Picco will tick all my boxes but the price will be like $160 USD.
