Using your Kindle as an e-ink monitor

3.5 fps, Paperwhite 3
@adtac_

step 1: jailbreak your Kindle

mobileread.com is your best resource here, follow the instructions from the LanguageBreak thread

I didn't really follow the LanguageBreak instructions because I didn't care about most of the features + I was curious to do it myself, but the LanguageBreak github repo was invaluable for debugging

Dummy extension to prevent elision of "http" / "file" / subdomains from the omnibox in Chrome. Use this instead of the "Suspicious Site Reporter".
// This is a dummy extension that prevents elision of "http" / "file" / subdomains
// from the omnibox by impersonating the "Suspicious Site Reporter" extension.
// Do not use this if you use the "Suspicious Site Reporter" extension.
//
// Usage:
// 1. Create a directory, e.g. "prevent-elision-in-locationbar"
// 2. Put the content of this file as "manifest.json" in that directory.
// 3. Visit chrome://extensions, choose the "Load Unpacked" button and select the directory.
// (OR use the --load-extension=path/to/prevent-elision-in-locationbar flag to load the extension)
// Result:
