Using an Old and Jailbroken Kindle

Reading is important, but finding the right device is hard. For years I was invested not only in Kindle devices but also in the Amazon Kindle e‑book library. The ease of getting books and reading them seamlessly on a Kindle kept me locked in for years. Once Amazon bought

Sticking With My iPhone 15 Pro Max (for now)

After trying the iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro, I’m keeping what I have. This isn’t a post about me not upgrading or saying that I’m done upgrading to fight against materialism. I’m deciding to keep the iPhone 15 Pro Max because it’s the phone
