  8. In an interesting turn, when I updated NJ's tablet to make sure it used our DNS, it blocked usage pings to #Amazon. And that is excluding any such data from individual apps.

    This is marketed as a kids tablet, but it's really just a tablet with parental controls (which are needed).

    Well, they won't get her usage stats from home now, which is where the vast majority of her usage is.

  13. Nineteen books into the year so far and it’s time for one of those books that you have to read because people that read books tell you that you have to read this book! My next download onto my Kindle (other ebook readers are available) is going to be Crime and Punishment

  18. I'm guessing it's not really a bug in the Kindle as many tech forums have said. I'm thinking good old #Amazon is not properly updating #OneNote on older #KindleFire tablets.

    As a reminder you'll need to figure out how to allow the Kindle Fire to accept sources outside of the Amazon App store. There's tons of forums on how to do that.

  19. #OneNote #KindleFire

    For many Kindles out there OneNote is not syncing properly. It's probably the one app I use more than the Kindle reader itself. They got me hooked back in the Windows Phone days when the specs of that phone were incredible for the price.

    Anyhow, the work around I found is found in this thread here: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answ

    Basically you grab the latest apk from here onenote.en.uptodown.com/androi

    Install and reboot.

  20. I learned that you can use Amazon Appstore on regular Android devices in an article about how that will soon no longer be possible.

  21. #Kuroko also works on the #KindleFire HD 6 running #LineageOS 14.1/#Android 7.1.2.

    Self-compiled using #Ubuntu in #Termux.

    #GitHub for Kuroko (not my project ofc, I’m just showing off how it works on different devices):
    github.com/kuroko-lang/kuroko

    May try the 3DS family next, keep an eye out. ;3

  24. On my hour long walk to and from work I listen to #BBCRadio4 comedy shows on my #KindleFire (other eReaders are available) and I’m currently listening to Linda Smith’s Brief History of Time-Wasting and I miss her so much. The phrases “comedy genius” and “national treasure” are often overused but just don’t really do Linda justice

  25. The book I’m starting today is Book 2 in the DS Jenna Morgan series by @Diane_Saxon @BoldwoodBooks

    I loved the first in the series ✨📖

  26. Just got into a #Postmarketos desktop for the first time on my #Amazon #KindleFire 7 gen 7. Now to attempt to get a mobile useable DE on it.

  27. So, anyone have experience getting the #amazon out of the #kindlefire?

    Is there a lineage OS build?

    I guess I'll google it up and find out!

  28. I really like Amazon's UI on top of Android. But the #kindlefire is heavy enough that it's starting to trigger my RSI

  29. Once I set Silk to desktop mode, Google's in-browser reader is almost useable #kindlefire
