Is there a go-to book (or other resource) for people that have essentially never touched excel?

For some of us, the hope is to use AR/VR for productivity. It might sound mundane, but the hope is that one day slipping on a pair of glasses outperforms conventional monitor technology.

The three year warranty at Yamaha is way better than the deal I walked into last time around. They’re on my radar now for sure. Thank you.

If you really start looking for companies that pledge to support battery replacements for 5 or 10 years after initial sale… well, I haven’t found any. Meanwhile, my 20 year old manual bike is still good as new. Or go looking for a company t

I bought an e-bike some years ago, loved it completely, but the battery promptly failed. The company that sold the bike (SF startup faraday) promptly went out of business. — I want so much to hop back in the saddle… but I’m thinking about e

George, If Simula VR had been shipping on January of 2022, I would have ordered it over an Aero. If simulaVR were in stock and shipping today, I would sell my Aero at a loss and place an order. I honestly do have my fingers crossed that by

> we know already means it will not be a viable monitor replacement for extended use. This opinion is deeply subjective. I have a Varjo Aero, and I can use it as a daily driver (for productivity), no problem. The Vison pro looks to be

Hi Ladberg, When you worked with Vision Pro, did it have a device native terminal and/or a device native ssh client? What I mean by that is a terminal running under VisionOS, as opposed to getting terminal access by first connecting to

At the foundation of academic writing, there is a given: that you and the authors you are citing have made an effort to present factual arguments with citations when applicable. ChatGPT doesn’t do that. And so I think it should almost neve

Okay, You're right about video pass through. SimulaVR does have that. but... I've found two places (both embedded within video) that still references 11th gen intel, and zero places that reference a 12th gen upgrade. If there is

TLDR: I found things, yes. But they weren’t a fit for me. Things I found: ### SimulaVR [1] A linux native VR headset with an entire open ecosystem of software. On the plus side: they actually have an open source VR native window manager!!

I own a Varjo Aero. A comparably priced PC VR headset (after including graphic cards costs) that runs only under windows. I bought this setup for productivity – not gaming. I want to give a quick reaction to apple vision pro from that per

Different trial (attempted murder), but I too was on a Jury. At the start of deliberation, it was an even split. Towards the end of deliberation it was 11/12 in favor of returning a verdict of guilty. However... One juror opened up so
