John Wilker 👨🏽‍💻Ages ago when we were closing down our coworking space, my friend gave me his old Kindle Keyboard. It wasn't charging. I wanted it as a display piece.It's been on a shelf for all this time with the “Your battery is dead" screen. So I decided to see if I could bring it back to life just so it'd be a living display piece.The old battery was... oof. A little poking and opening it back up and boom! new battery works.

Bongolian<a href="https://mas.to/@crimsonfall" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@crimsonfall</a> I believe that Amazon's <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Kindle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kindle</a> has a lot to blame for this — on both ends (garbage in, garbage out). If the author allows the book on Kindle, or some other e-book publisher, ti's far easier to get scooped up into the generative <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> slop machine. It's still possible to get books published as hard-copy only (either contractually or by self-publishing).<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Amazon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Amazon</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ebooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ebooks</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/aislop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aislop</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/gigo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gigo</a>
