Came that for that, how is this different (not necessarily better) than KDE Connect which I already use daily?

Neat, I'd happily tinker with one but that's quite a demanding setup. From what I can tell from ManusVR and similar haptic devices there is no consumer driven cost dropping curve, unlike screen resolution thanks to mobile phones,

Controllers do have grip values, and one can measure the distance between index and thumb (for pinch).

Well what's arguably even more horrifying is according to "Estimated average energy efficiency of bitcoin mining hardware" no significant changed happened since 2014. I imagine we went from CPU to GPU to ASIC in couple of yea

Out of curiosity, do you have an estimate on that?

Very interesting, I'm wondering how that would feel in XR! I already have quite a few demos with manipulating files, e.g. Immersive file browser (via remote WebDAV directories) https://video.benetou.fr/w/rHZTnX5MnH

> jump on a call with the reviewer Have you ever done that with new contributors to open source projects? Typically things tend to be asynchronous but maybe it's a practice I've just not encountered in such context.

The Cable that Changed the World (2024) is pretty nice on the topic. Shows us how, again, most of the things we consider "new" or at even revolutionary most showcase how historical ignorance.

FWIW I didn't say Chatcontrol was good. I'm saying there is a fundamental difference between a potential law versus an existing situation.

I'd watch that show ideally with few base rules though, e.g. - the problems to solve must NOT be part of the training set - the person using the tool (e.g. OpenAI, Claude, DevStral, DeepSeek, etc) must NOT be able to solve problems alo

Does the analogy hold though? We had "free clothes" for years, decades now. I don't mean cheap I mean literally free, as in $0.0 software. Cheaper software isn't new. Also there are still clothe designers, fashion runway
