>We could stop it I strongly disagree. It's easy to utter this string of words, but it's meaningless. It's akin to saying if you have two hands you can perform brain surgery. Techn…

That's not the human norm though. Doubt an average human way of existing is literal torture for some obscure number of people. I think you're missing the forest for the threes with…

Ok fair enough but considering the Kindle ecosystem I'd rather deal with raspberry pi than with the Kindle stuff.

I removed the battery but kept the I2C chip/pcb, and fed 5V from USB port via a diode, on the PCB battery connections, seems to work fine. I actually installed a single wire from U…

Bricked it few times in the process of figuring out more stuff about it, but luckily mine has a UART pads and I was able to restore it every time. A bit more involved as it's 1.8V …

I removed the battery on mine, kept the battery chip and fed 5V into the battery terminals, from Kindle's USB connector, through a diode (so 4.4V-ish). Without a battery it needs s…

I took an even simpler route. After jailbreak and ssh I just made two scripts on the Kindle, one is triggered every minute, the other every half hour. Both draw the same image from…

That's what happens when demand is higher than supply.

Makes sense, life was brute-forced.
