It kinda makes sense. Nobody else is doing AR/VR in a terribly interesting way. The Quest is cool, but pretty lame for anything except playing rhythm games, PSVR is more of the same but hella expensive. I think all the other players WA

on of my favourite books is "Small Giants: Companies That Choose to Be Great Instead of Big" by Bo Burlingham. It's worth a read if this is something that interests you.

Your comment reads like psyops... trying to discredit the leakers.

I don't think this is something most "normal" people will do. However, I can see use cases in industry where grabbing a quick photo of some equipment etc might be useful, or in sports where for example cyclists could have a h

HOW MUCH? I heard about the fad, but holy crap thats a lot to spend on pedalling without going anywhere.

I have a Dell 1350cnw (which is a rebranded Brother laser). I bought it in 2010 and the damn thing is still trooping along today!

I think that "hybrid" is the worst of both worlds. If you attend the office you spend most of your time on video calls to people working from home. Need to run a workshop? You still have to plan it in a hybrid way using Miro and v

Same! Probably just the world torrent in the domain was enough to get it on a blacklist.

erm... reduce the number of traumatic, life-threatening situations by taking away the guns? Get your police force under control and stop trying to control peoples minds and bodies could be a good start?

If this interests you theres a great book called "Touching the Rock" by John Hull which has a similar real-life account of going blind. There is also a virtual experience based on the same book for the Meta Quest which is pretty i

I replied about this on another comment but have a look at "We Do Solar" their product is designed for installing on balconies but I guess there is nothing to stop you installing it where ever you like! (You might just need to add

Not sure if you saw but there's a great little German startup called "We Do Solar" who produce solar panels specifically for use on Balconies. My house has a flat roof and we'll be putting solar up there in the near futu

How cold is "cold" ? Here in the Netherlands we rarely get more than a couple of days per year with temperatures much below zero.

Still rocking my iPhone 11 Pro. Unless it has a catastrophic failure I'll probably struggle through until the iPhone 16 comes out. For the most part it works fine (although the battery is getting a little ropey!)

Everything I've read about the snapmaker suggests it's a "jack of all trades" and not really great at anything.

I'm in the same situation. I've been using a Prusa Mini for two years and it's a really awesome machine. I've made some tweaks along the way but I get consistent, high-quality prints in a reliable machine. I never have t

My 2010 MacBook Pro still lives on my network running as a print server for my old laser printer that no longer works with modern OS's due to the lack of 64 bit drivers. I'm looking into installing HomeAssistant and possibly PiHol

I've been daily driving various Macs since the release of the Mac Mini in 2023. I love the "it just works" promise of the hardware but honestly I'm not terribly excited about the software these days, especially all the c

These sensors are becoming increasingly popular in the home automation space, replacing traditional PIR sensors because, unlike PIR sensors they can still detect someone even if they're sitting relatively still (just breathing can be e

Just remember, a junior is someone who has little work experience, NOT someone who isn't qualified. If you hire someone that knows the work but just needs experience you will find yourself working with someone who is engaged and enthus

If this was me there would be about 50 entries of me opening the fridge door, staring for a minute and then closing it without taking anything out (also a fair amount of walking into rooms and forgetting why I was there).

I use Siri dozens of times a day via my headphones (mostly for music control) and Alexa at home to control home automation, play music and occasionally answer my stupid questions.

by hellweaver666 4y ago
This is horrible, in NL we have the "international version" of Alexa and we don't get any of this crap, just a basic voice assistant that can play music and control smart home devices.

I saw a demo the other day of a guy who had hooked Chat GPT up to some kind of voice assistant. The main benefit was that it supported chaining commands so you could say "turn on the light, then set the volume to 50% and then tell me t

I'm 41 and grew up with access to technology every day of my life. I won't use VR for more than a few rounds of beatsaber. The only way I would use VR for more than shits and giggles is if it was integrated into my standard glas
