If current progress with MicroOLED panels continues, we should expect 5000x5000 displays that are small enough for use in a glasses form factor with light field displays. This will significantly help with the reduced effective resolution. T

They're comparing apples to oranges. The $80,000 military VR headsets of 1989 absolutely did not use OLED or OLED light field displays. They've only recently been available from manufacturers at any price with their current pixel

That's nothing. One of the biggest injustices with Google Cast is that capturing system audio on Android is a whitelisted system-only permission and only Google Cast (and a couple system apps) are allowed access to this. Somehow screen

The SM950 can be had at $300 for 512GB with 2.5/1.5 GB/s sequential read/write and 300K IOPS. RAID together 6 of them in parallel and you'll have something with better specs and storage than the 2.9TB module ($46K) for j

He included an unlicensed H.264 decoder in his app. He could have avoided this by either using Chrome's built-in APIs[1], utilizing Cisco's free H.264 implementation[2], or simply paying the license fees himself. Google and Cisco

Does this run afoul of any privacy laws? Once you give your device to the e-waste program, it is no longer your property so I could imagine that this could be construed as illegal tracking somehow by the e-waste companies. There are also sp

You just hook up your existing DAC to the USB-C port instead of a 3.5mm jack, and the rest is just software. It's not like they need to use special circuitry that isn't already in your phone. All phones in existence already have a

USB-C has an analog audio output mode (audio adapter accessory mode which uses the device's internal DAC), so you won't have to do that. There will eventually be passive USB-C→3.5mm cables for use with analog-only headphones.

It was glEnd() when this was submitted. Someone erroneously changed the title afterwards. Is there some unspoken rule on HN that all proper nouns need to be capitalized? This doesn't seem fair when iPhone and jQuery can get exceptions.

Fundamentally, selling software for your users to run on their own devices is pretty close to zero cost. It's literally just the cost to get it to their device, and that's it (disregarding payment processors, support, etc.).
