      The fun part of that is you have to charge the ipad first. And Then you can charge the pen using that new ipad charge. I’m charging this thing twice just for one charge basically. No wonder i don’t use it.

      Lemmy uses markdown for formatting. If you’re unsure how to do something, you can look up “how to x in markdown.” For example, a DDG result for “how to embed images in markdown”:

      https://www.markdownlang.com/basic/images.html

      That site has lots of other markdown tutorials if you’re inclined to browse. If you want to experiment with the syntax away from the public eye, there are plenty of editors that will show you live what you’ve created. Many options for doing this locally on your system exist, but so long as you’re not working with sensitive data, I like this online option:

      https://markdownlivepreview.com/

      Also, some (but certainly not all) Lemmy clients have buttons that will generate the right syntax for you.

      This is a positive implementation, esp. when away from pwr sources. The pencil came with a tip for cord charging.

        A company the size of apple should be able to come up with a more sane charging situation, such as maybe a spot it magnets to at the edge of the iPad to charge? Then you can use the iPad while the stylus charges on the go

            I honestly was not! I’ve not paid too close of attention to the consumer hardware space for…about 6 or 7 years or so now
