        @redenchilada WHAT IS IT WITH YOU PEOPLE AND DOING THAT. I don't go up to people with books and go "eeew inefficient tree based media".

          @ceruleanspark Books don't need batteries.

            @colfax I have never had an issue with my Kindle's battery life, but yes, this is true. I'm just not a fan of the storage density of paper media. I also like the "Instant access" functions. Being able to buy a book from the middle of goddamn nowhere is nice. Especially if you're not going to be able to leave anytime soon.

              @ceruleanspark Yeah, and their ability to delete stuff you've paid for is a nice perk too.

                @colfax They're not able to do that anymore.

                  @ceruleanspark Also not very keen on a massive database of what books I like being out there either.

                    @colfax That's not an issue with e-readers though. That's an issue with a couple of very specific ereaders. If you buy a non-networked sony and load it up with pirate books, then none of those things are an issue.

                        @redenchilada That is how I mostly get my books, yes. Occasionally I buy stuff from amazon on it, but mostly just stealing.

                      @ceruleanspark It's easier to just go to the library.

              @ceruleanspark But can you tear pages out of a Kindle and fold them into paper planes?

                  @redenchilada I carry a field-notes notebook just so I can do that with a $30 notebook.

                    @ceruleanspark But it's much more fun to give reading to whomever picks up your paper plane!

                            @ceruleanspark That would be better, actually. "This is an airplane\It is made out of paper\I wrote this on it"
