The contrast improvement is welcome for sure, but it remains to be seen what difference 15% white reflectivity makes.

Previous Kaleido products are fundamentally flawed. I'd hoped they would bin it for something better rather than make incremental improvements. Think it's also debatable what value colour brings unless you are regularly reading full colour magazines, PDFs etc.

They were once, but no longer. BYD has surpassed them in delivered volume and proft since 2025.

Tesla's net income has been declining YOY since 2023.

I'm sure that it's right! I've no doubt gambling advertising firms will have been happy to see it over the line to get them off the hook. Hard to argue for a ban on gambling ads if kids (allegedly) can't see them anyway.

I've heard this so many times. That age gating in AUS was started by lobbying from an advertising firm is a gross simplification / distortion of the facts but a good example of how easily misinformation spreads on the internet. People love a conspiracy.

No doubt that it will be good news to gambling advertisers, but the push for age verification was already underway in 2020, well before government recommended an end to gambling advertising (2023).

It's a neat explanation, so an easy sell, but doesn't match the chronology.

But when governments do regulate (UK, AUS etc all) - people cry foul.

Only with an extension, at least in the UK.

Yeah, that’s fair.

I really like their pdf viewer. It can be slow on complex documents, but I find it much easer to navigate around compared to the one on Supernote and Boox devices.

Their ebook reader though.. that really does suck. It’s had basically zero improvements in as long as I can remember, despite B obviously being a core feature for many people.

There are images in geminispace, and audio, and (probably) video. It's just not inline. One of constraints of the protocol is that pages cannot load content without your express say-so.

The good thing about the Remarkable is that it’s basically just a Linux machine and you have root access. There’s a great community of folk building extra functionality and tools / apps for it.

It’s another good example of internet sentiment being far different to popular sentiment.

Polling shows around 70% supported it, though far fewer thought it would be effective. Pretty much matches my views on it.

Is an SUV needed for two children? I can accommodate my two children (and the dog if required) in my smallish hatchback.

Possibly, but it's not really sync anyway. You can pull and push documents, but there's no synchronisation.

Not worth paying extra for.

Writing latency on the current generation of eink devices is good enough not to be noticeable.
