#winterbreak — Public Fediverse posts

We live in cold New England. As we've aged, the winters have gotten harder on us. We decided years ago that, instead of buying each other yule gifts, we would spend the money on a winter getaway (some time in Mid January to Mid March or so). The goal is to get somewhere warm, and sunny. Ideally on the ocean, but a lake beach or a pool would be good. Also, a hot tub is really a necessity these days due to my spouse's legs doing ::waves hands vaguely:: weird things.

We used to go to Florida and stay in cheap motels. But then I found cruises were a really great deal. So we took many cruises out of Florida, until Florida decided that they didn't want our money any more (we are a queer couple, my spouse is trans).

Then we shifted to cruises out of northern ports. Advantages being we could drive to the ports, or catch a bus that will take us there. So we could afford slightly more expensive cruises because of the savings on air fares. But those days are coming to an end, too. We're on a fixed income, but the cruise prices have gone up.

So now I'm digging around again. Looking at Tucson, Arizona (a bastion of LGBTQ+ folks) and Las Vegas. Sunny, hot, pools, hot tubs… AARP has travel packages for me. They're still a bit more expensive than I wish, but I can't have everything. We'll fly in, get transport to our lodging, then just lay by the pool and maybe go out a few times for dinner, maybe shop at a market (if I can find us lodging near some sort of market).

It'll definitely break up the winter for us. Years ago I wouldn't even have considered Vegas as a place to go. As I age, though, things change. It's … weird.

So if y'all have thoughts on places in/around Vegas (we don't drink, we don't gamble, we will literally be laying by the pool reading or playing quiet board/card games in some spot in the hotel) or Tucson that might work well with some proximity to, oh, I dunno nothing too adventurous, I'm all ears.

Here is suspicious quiet in the other room. I ask the kid what she's doing. She responds "Guess!"

The options are many, but none are reassuring. Schrodinger's cat is definitely dead. The question is how mangled it is.

Second #k12 snow day this month, third if you count yesterday for my weekend #AdultESOL job. Only three days of classes with students this week, then #WinterBreak.

We have a long list of things to get done during the break; we'll get a head start on them today.

Need to prep for classes (#ESOL and #CyberSecurity); update some writings; and make some videos for #teacher #EducationalResources.

那和我的PW3同属第七世代产品 越狱方法是一样的
先登出中区账号换成海外账号（因为中区账号会隐藏掉作为越狱入口的商店）
然后接着按照 #winterbreak 的stepbystep图示教程操作就行
https://kindlemodding.org/jailbreaking/WinterBreak
搞完之后我的建议是单独建一个文件夹用来放给 #koreader 直读的epub和pdf格式，在ko的设置里直接指定这个文件夹为主目录很方便

终于把我的 #kindlePW3 越狱了（用的 #winterbreak）
装了 #KOreader 用来直读 #epub 文件
为了自定义屏保搜到了一个tumblr博客

库库存了几十张

Just performed a #jailbreak on wifey's #Kindle Paperwhite from 2012.
Worked like a charm. I'd wish for other software projects with that well written docs and well tested software.
Well done, #WinterBreak!

And as long as I'm messing with one set of media devices (https://mastodon.social/@GamesMissed/114676687198531218), I finished my most recent novel on my #Kindle Voyage last night, and installed the #WinterBreak jailbreak this morning in-between other tasks.

I got a hand me down 2015 Kindle Paperwhite from my daughter—is that a hand-me-up?—after we upgraded her to a new Kobo Libra Color.

I used #WinterBreak to jailbreak and got #KOReader installed and it’s a nice little reader that syncs easily with Calibre. No Amazon involved.

The Kobo Libra is an extremely nice #eReader with great integration with Overdrive/Libby to get library books, but if you’re looking to get something on the cheap and save some ewaste, I can recommend jailbreaking a kindle

I performed some overdue de-enshittification yesterday evening. Worked like a charm. Currently playing with KOreader (it’s good!). I followed this tutorial: https://kindlemodding.org/jailbreaking/WinterBreak/ #Winterbreak #Kindle #Jailbreak #Ereader #ByeBezos

Ich habe kein Plan, warum ich das gemacht habe, aber ich habe jetzt einen gejailbreakten #Kindle. Weil ich es halt kann.

I WinterBreaked my Kindle. Now, what? 🤨

#Kindle #Hacking #WinterBreak

Succesfully set my Kindle free using WinterBreak.

#amazonKindle #winterbreak #jailbreak

I had already liberated all my Kindle books months ago and was about to sell my old Kindle Oasis in light of Amazons recent decision to disallow downloading ebooks for reading in non-kindle software.

However, just in the nick of time I found a recently released jailbreak that works on the device. I then installed Koreader which offers a vastly better reader experience with easy access to alternative book platforms including my self-hosted server.

Just ran across this and thought it looked like fun for #milwaukeans and others in the area! https://www.winterbreakmke.com/ #milwaukee #winterbreak

PSA:

I jailbreaked my Kindle Scribe yesterday. Turns out there's a vulnerability in all kindle firmware versions across devices, (not including the color e-ink Kindles, but that won't be for long) there isn't a patch released yet, so we have a new jailbreak, called WinterBreak, released this new year's day. Works great! (although I'd appreciate if KOReader gets pen annotation support for the Scribe)
