This newish Kindle feature compensates for my terrible memory

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-15 12:00:18

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Like anyone who hates picking out new books, I absolutely love a good series. A lineup of three to five books off a single decision is just efficient. Yet, keeping storylines straight between installments isn’t always seamless. To that end, Kindle Recaps might be the most underrated tool on my e-reader. The feature quietly solves a very real problem for anyone who juggles long series, busy schedules, or a brain that just can’t keep every plot twist straight. H

PopSocket grips might be closely associated with smartphones, but they work surprisingly well with most e-readers. That’s because they let you prop up or securely hold any big-screen device with just one hand, making them a handy tool for those looking for a little more convenience.

Sometimes Software Is Done, or Why Hugo Why

I didn’t sit down this morning planning to write a grouchy blog post about Hugo. When I first used Hugo I loved it. It was fast. It was simple. It just worked, as much as any software does, and it solved a real problem. It was done. But people kept working on it. I’m sure that it has been improved in countless ways. But along the way it has gotten bigger and more complicated, and has broken backwards compatibility repeatedly. I am only inspired to write a blog post every few months. It take

My phone is an ereader now I got a Kobo in 2016 after borrowing my mom's old one for a year before that. It probably is responsible for getting me reading again after high school. I used to be an avid reader, the sort of kid who would have to be told to put down the book and go to sleep, and who would then creep slowly to the bookshelf to pick it up again without arousing suspicion after the light had been turned out.

‘Injustice 3’ is Coming—What Will DC Do With It?

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-10-17 09:00:02

Nearly 10 years ago, NetherRealm released Injustice 2, the second game in its DC superhero fighting series. (And it’s the third superhero fighting game, beginning with 2008’s Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe.) After continuing and rebooting the story of Mortal Kombat, it seems NetherRealm is going back to superheroic punch-ups, as Green Lantern and Aquaman voice actor Phil LaMaar reportedly told a fan at a recent convention a third game is happening. This will come as little surprise to anyone pay

At San Diego Comic-Con 2024, Paramount teased our very first look at Star Trek: Strange New Worlds‘ third season with a clip that proved to be rather baffling. A contextless gag that saw Pike, Chapel, La’an, and Uhura seemingly permanently transformed into Vulcans, the clip immediately sparked discussion about the Vulcan crew’s sudden racially prejudiced treatment of Spock as, well, the extra half-Vulcan among them.
