It sounds like the OP's ones have a button that switches between transparent, semi-transparent mode, and opaque. I know a pair I've seen in the past was mostly transparent, but then it had an extra piece you could snap on that was

Well, AR glasses have cameras. Other than that I'm not really sure. I didn't even realize these had a 3D mode or other sensors, I thought they were just a pair of mirrored screens

They have a pair of tiny screens that sit right in front of your eyes and act like a very portable monitor. (Both screens show the same picture - no 3d effects.) I assume they get power and video both over USB-C, so they can be connected to

Holy fuck that's a terrible deal they offered on the $250 shares! Made up billion-dollar valuation aside, an 11% interest rate on a $24,750 loan means that it's never going to pay for itself and start producing a return for the

I wonder if the folks at Neo4j actually read the AGPL before tacking on their commons clause? If you're already making up a new license, then it should be trivial to delete the "no further restriction" section - but you have

You know what, I went back and checked it and apparently it does work now. Not sure why I thought otherwise. It's too late to edit my original post :(

Aah, yes, the USB-A side always provides power, no negotiation needed for that aspect. There is still supposed to be some level of negotiation before drawing that much current (often just checking resistance, similar to the USB-C "dumb

I have a Framework 13 and I've found that it's fairly finicky about what power sources it will accept. Anything 60W and higher seems to mostly work, but lower wattage chargers are much more dicey. The one trick I've heard wor

That reminds me of a while back, my phone battery was getting really low, like 1%. I grabbed a power bank and connected it, USB-C to USB-C, and for whatever reason, the two devices decided that the phone should be charging the power bank in

Yep. If I needed a new GPU, that's what I'd go for. I'm pretty happy with what I have for the moment, though.

Doom 2016 at 1080p with a 50% resolution scale (so, really, 540p) can hit 120 FPS on an AMD 8840U. That's what I've been doing on my GPD Win Mini, except that I usually cut the TDP down to 11-13W, where it's hitting more like

Meh. Feels like astronomical prices for the smallest upgrades they could get away with. I miss when high-end GPUs were $300-400, and you could get something reasonable for $100-200. I guess that's just integrated graphics these days. T

Yeah, FB marketplace is the worst for that. I end up putting up with it, though, because it also has a lot of legitimate buyers and no fees. I usually just give folks my home address and a time I'm going to be home anyways, and ask the

ebay charges something like a 12.5% commission. It's easily over $100 in fees to sell a decent laptop on ebay. So, the seller would have to be charging quite a bit more for that to work out.

Nintendo's problem is that this was fairly believable because it lines up pretty closely with their own past behavior. Nintendo regularly drags some of their biggest fans through the dirt with bogus copyright claims and other legal non
