- derwiki 16y agoNow I can ssh from my Kindle. miles++
- tetsuo13 16y agoFunny that the third and forth octets of the IP address shown in the Kindle screen shots are obstructed given that the IP begins with 192.168.
- miles 16y agoI'd rather not give away too much info about my internal network (though you're welcome to the first two octets ;-) Even non-routable IP address info can be useful under some circumstances. Probably should've just blanked out the whole thing.
- silentbicycle 16y agoYet another reason to learn ed: "Since the Kindle keyboard lacks Esc and Ctrl, stick with simple text editing tools like cat and ed/ex instead of nano and vi..."
- davidw 16y agoI like my Kindle a lot - I just got one - but the screen is really too slow to be anything other than maddening for any sort of remotely dynamic application. It'll be really interesting to see what happens... I like the screen a lot more than LCD for reading, but I also would like to have a more generic device. I also suspect that not being able to hop online every 10 minutes is a good thing in the Kindle though, in terms of sitting down and really reading.
