I'm not sure what you mean about not buying hardware, my switch was $200. It's not a rental or lease. You might be thinking of console companies selling their systems at a loss, which is pretty common. They know they'll make

I'm in the SCA, the Society for Creative Anachronism. Medieval reenactment for fun. It's non-profit, run almost entirely by volunteers. Feasts, recreational combat, games, blacksmithing, brewing, crafts of all kinds. Nearly all of

It sure looks like they do, the company logo is on the side of the headset. It doesn't look anything like the nreal either. https://www.pcworld.com/article/1919392/spacetop-is-the-firs...

I love the concept. Hopefully they'll sell the headset separately someday, or someone will come up with an open source version of it. It'd be perfect for the cyberdeck community.

Very cool! I can't try it now, I'm at work. One thing that I know slows me down and drives me a little nuts is having to press shift to get the " < > etc keys. Does anyone have a workaround for that? Maybe key mapping?

That's kinda what happened to Radioshack. The orders from the top took the company in directions that main customer base wasn't interested in. It lost a lot of it's uniqueness and quickly deflated. I worked at one for a few y

Failing is how we humans learn! Through our failures, or the failures of others. It's normal, healthy, and OK. You like all of us have failed before, right? And you survived! It's what help make you who you are. Some decisions are

I got an HP proliant ML350 G6 for free, so I want to use that for my server. The problem is it has a firmware issue. It thinks it's overheating when it's not, and kicks the fans onto their highest setting. Software wise I want to

I've always found this subject interesting. I love the "learning how to learn" course on coursera (and I think Udemy). Does anyone know if there is information that would apply to an ADHD brain?

Vyvance works great for me, but it's over $300 even with my insurance. Adderol is the next best for me. It's $50-ish a month. My current life doesn't give me a lot of time to do the non-med things that help. Things like exerc

I find the "snip and sketch" tool handy. If you push the "windows + shift + s" keys it lets you draw a box around what you want a "snip" of. Then you'll get a notification you can click on that will bring
