Daisy Universe daisyUniverse

Over the years I've had such a pain in the ass finding out exactly how discord embeds work. I love doing web development in my off time, and one of the most fascinating parts to me is creating apps that you can just post a link to in your friend group and have them all instantly be able to see whatever weird thing you're working on. A while back that led me to creating fxtwitter, which required some pretty jank setup to make work

It's strange. Over the years it feels like nobody has actually gone through and documented all possible interactions between embedded metadata and what appears on screen when you use it.. people vaguely are aware that OG tags work, and sometimes creative folks experiment with oembed endpoints, but I feel like no one has ever gone out of their way to actually go through and list what does work, what works weird, and what doesn't work at all

So I'm gonna try!

Jailbreaking an Old Ass Kindle

Alright so I figured I should start a document to log the truly annoying as shit pitfalls involved in fully jailbreaking a very old kindle, in particular, this is about my Kindle DX Graphite, SN starting in B009. This one is 3G online, with no wifi, which makes things a bit more annoying to deal with...

Let me give you a mile high overview so you can see if you're on the right track

Install the Jailbreak. ['kindle-jailbreak-0.13.N-r18833.tar.xz'] (Update_jailbreak_0.13.N_dxg_install.bin)
Install USBNetwork Hack. ['kindle-usbnetwork-0.57.N-dx.zip'] (Update_usbnetwork_0.57.N_dx_install.bin)
