Saturday, July 21, 2018: 11:00 pm (Booth): fread.ink is an open-source operating system for electronic paper e-book readers based on the popular Debian GNU/Linux. Why are these devices interesting and underutilized? How have problematic laws like the DMCA impeded progress and what did it take to get a modern GNU/Linux system working on one of Amazon’s devices? This talk will attempt to answer these questions and show you how to start hacking your own paper display devices using fread.ink. Marc Juul
