There is a new #jailbreak for #Kindle that include the latest models. It is called Véra (https://kindlemodding.org/jailbreaking/Vera/). It is also very easy to apply, nothing like the old times.

It includes a package manager, called KPM, that makes the process of installing software (such as #KOReader) trivial.

Jailbreaking a Kindle and then installing #KOReader is such an upgrade!

KOReader's Zen plugin is the open-source answer to Amazon's Kindle monopoly
I **definitively** have to update my #Kobo #KOreader and install this #ZenUI

@dandb I also have a Kobo and highly recommend Koreader as the actual application to read/manage your ebooks on it! Using the stock reader was tedious and slow for me - #Koreader is faster and is highly customizable :)

Anyways enjoy your Kobo 😁

LLM truncation in KoAssistant/Ollama is causing my prompt to be cut off.

The Fix:
1️⃣ Move from large models (e.g., 26B) to mid-size (e.g., 12B) to free up VRAM.
2️⃣ Create a Modelfile with PARAMETER num_ctx 32768.
3️⃣ Rebuild: ollama create model-name -f Modelfile.

This balances intelligence and context, letting your RAG prompts actually reach the model! 🚀 #Ollama #LLM #LocalAI #KoReader #OpenSource #RAG #LocalLLM

Struggling with LLM truncation in KoAssistant/Ollama? 🛠️ If your prompt is being cut off, you're likely hitting VRAM limits.

The Fix:
1️⃣ Move from large models (e.g., 26B) to mid-size (e.g., 12B) to free up VRAM.
2️⃣ Create a Modelfile with PARAMETER num_ctx 32768.
3️⃣ Rebuild: ollama create model-name -f Modelfile.

This balances intelligence and context, letting your RAG prompts actually reach the model! 🚀 #Ollama #LLM #LocalAI #KoReader #OpenSource #RAG #LocalLLM

Articles to be read go onto my #readeck. My #ereader has #koreader installed, with a plugin for readeck integration. Articles to be read automagically appear on my ereader, and when finished get archived in readeck 🥰

@marick @tikitu

Ha, glad it worked out!

If you want to have highlighting that you can sync from your kobo to your computer, you need to install #KOReader onto your #kobo, which is supposedly pretty easy. I haven't done it yet. I just use the built-in reader "software" and manually back up my kobo's storage every couple weeks.

enviei un primeiro traballo cos elementos principais a #simpleUI , a interface para #KOReader https://github.com/doctorhetfield-cmd/simpleui.koplugin/pull/471 . Nas próximas semanas, se aceptan a colaboración, enviarei o traballo completo. No meu lector funciona correctamente, pero hai cadeas de texto que proceden directamente de KOReader, teño esa impresión, así que igual teño que adaptar a miña #tradución para que concorden. Emporiso, creo que «Highlights» está traducido de formas diferentes dentro de KOReader, pareceume que mistura Notas, Comentarios, Destacados, Resaltados,... Isto non ven ao caso, pero coméntoo porque pareceume que é así.

:neofox_book:  :fedi:

unha característica moi útil en #koreader é a de poder crear un código QR a partir dun texto seleccionado.

• seleccionas un texto no libro que estás a ler
• premes na opción «Xerar código QR»
• aparece en pantalla o código creado
• escanéalo co móbil
• …creas unha nota, envíalo por correo, publícala no fediverso, … todas as opcións que aparecen no teu dispositivo ao premer na icona «Compartir».

Nun momento pasas un texto do lector ao móbil, se precisar bluetooth, mesma rede Wi-Fi, nin conectar un cable. Podes probar a escanear esta mesma imaxe que publico e verás que contén o texto citado (é seguro, non te vou hackear, palabrita :sorrisosloth: )

Thanks to @_elena mentioning SimpleUI recently, KOReader on my jailbroken old 2015 Kindle Paperwhite just got a lot prettier and easier to use. It was also easy to add to KOReader on Android. https://github.com/doctorhetfield-cmd/simpleui.koplugin

➡️ #Readest als E-Book-Reader für iOS (synct mit KOreader)

➡️ Zotero #MCP Server, um mit Claude auf Zotero und #Obsidian zugreifen zu können

Incredible amount of amazon telemetry and ad services when a kindle is added to the network.

Luckily once you set up koreader and only need LAN for file transfers, after registering the device (unfortunately required), its as simple as blocking the device connections to WAN within the openwrt luci network traffic rules (if you have an openwrt router that is).

Special day today: the home screen of my jailbroken e-reader informed me I hit a 100-day reading streak. This week's average reading time has been 42 minutes a day 🥳

I owe it all to #KOreader and #SimpleUI - somehow having visible metrics motivated me to pick up my #Kindle every day.

I wrote more about it on my #GoToSocial account: https://aseachange.com/@elena/statuses/01KR0PEJEZ00Y7506QFE60TKA3

If you are interested in doing something similar, the website https://kindlemodding.org is a phenomenal resource.

Noche de aprendizaje..

* Jailbreak en Kindle e instalar #KoReader
* Instalar #BookOrbit en el Synology
* Consolidar toda la coleccion de años en eBooks en una misma libreria ( en proceso )
* Aprender a convertir archivos KFX a EPUB en #Calibre
* Sincronizar libros via KOreader en el #Kindle y descargar en el #iPad
* .. y muchas cosas mas.

As stupid as it sounds needing "tips" to read a book most of these are pretty good. Maybe this myself and to some extents this lady are dumb dumbs but yeah man #Dune is a book I had to put effort like real effort to get into but I feel the juice is worth the squeeze.

The only other "tip" I would recommend is have a way to easily look up words. Either "in app" (#KOReader English-English Wikitionary is a life savor for this) or some other external means, because if feels like every other page I am like "Okay is this a 60s scifi term, a 60s term that meant something different, the author using a fancy word, or just a made up Dune word.

Als Reader-Apps beschränke ich mich auf #KOreader (Hardware) und #Readest (iOS, Desktop). Alle nicht-kompatible Hardware wird aussortiert (Kindle, Tolino/Kobo, Remarkable). Lesestand wird über KOreader Sync Server synchronisiert.

NeoDB now works in #KOReader as a plugin.

You can rate, comment, share highlights, make notes and crosspost to Mastodon/Bluesky without leaving your e-reader.

And it works offline, and does upload later when back online.
