I'm curious to know how you used to read before ereaders exist ... Did you stick a black sheet of paper on the cover of your books to avoir scandalizing poeple ? :-) Or just maybe at that time people were less scandalized, or just more tolerant ...
I'm quite amazed this suggestion led to remarks, as if the idea was coming from an alien. The possibility to display the current book cover as sleep screen on the Kindle is known to be one of the top requests from kindle users ( https://www.reddit.com/r/kindle/comm...requests_that/) , and it's the main reason (and probably often the only reason) why some people jailbreak them ...
@HarryT anyway, you're right, the idea of DIY is not a bad one, thanks ! |
You must not live in the Southern US.
I read what I like and let others do likewise. We have some very conservative people that do judge and some will get in your face about.
I remember attending a Blue Grass Festival in 1989. One band started playing Dixie. Half of the audience stood up and took off their hats. Some of them then started haranguing those of us still sitting down. Emotions run deep in the Deep South.
