That was pretty thin on details.

I've had a Fire 8 for a while now that I bought because it was cheap as hell, thinking I could subvert it to the side of good. To an extent I guess I did, but I'd still rather use an old android 4.1 7" that doesn't have a lock screen I can't get rid of, so I have one less swipe to read for a few minutes when I wake up in the middle of the night.

I wish I could make it work like that one, but so far no go. And you can't get rid of some of the Amazon bullshit, so there's that. It just feels like its sitting there waiting to fuck me over somehow so I don't bother.
