Okay this is so fucking cool.
I want a scheme for one with all the buttons. Gimme tactile!
Super cool project. FYI it does require converting your ebooks to a special format.
I suspected as much since it’s using an Arduino Mega - very battery efficient I’m sure, but very underpowered.
Epub, the most popular format, is a fucking website, not very efficient. And it even allows the author to set font size and stuff, i mean, use a pdf then.
Except that a PDF isn’t dynamic. You’d be locked to whatever the page/text ratio was on every unique screen size. Not to mention all of the accessibility you lose because you can’t use a dyslexia-friendly font or increase the font size for bad eyesight.
That’s all before we get into the performance hits. EPUB certainly has its place in the market.
Yeah, i mean, why does the author need to be able to influence styling that much in a fucking ebook? That’s why, use a pdf then, if you want to force styling that much.
Btw, there’s FictionBook. But some find it too limited?
It’s called paper?
This is amazing! Using LICs is pretty ingenious considering the pure use case of an ereader.
Fuck you i won’t do what you tell me
