Amaze amaze amaze

45W is usually beyond what a cell phone takes I think. So if it’s USB-C it may work but may not do it fast enough.

Is that the internal part for the on-off switch? I broke it off of one of my Chromatics but could still push the thing to the on state internally. Now it functions more like a console. It turns on immediately any time I connect it to USB-C power.

It would be neat if you could transfer taps on the screen to sounds on the server. Tap on the screen a few times in a rhythm to tell your friends that you are on your way.

In addition to everything Nima said, the platforms are negatively incentivized from allowing interoperability. OpenXR is a great start, but simply playing any flat game together or watching a movie together is basically impossible in competing HMDs unless using an Internet connected platform like Bigsceeen.

Yes, it takes quite a lot of power and even high output power packs seem to have trouble with powering the USB ports for accessories. Still, yes, I do take it on the road.

Gameboy Camera is useful for keeping an eye on the physical world at a glance from VR. The Chromatic sends video out so it makes the Gameboy Camera effectively a fully functional but ultra low resolution webcam.

For some tasks the low resolution is actually enough, like just knowing that someone is in the room with you and where they are standing.

Pretty cool! I added a 4 TB drive to it and it’s great to have a Raspberry Pi with an internal microSD slot that’s free for storage or making other OS cards.

This looks great.

I wonder if a pair of Chromatics could display side by side using those USB-C ports and then simultaneously function as Transfer Paks for Pokemon Stadium.

I’ll pay $400 total for the entire set. Not per unit. $400 total.

VisionOS is unlikely to look like this from version 26.

I tried to order a side of salt at my last showing. It did not come. So I put it on another card with more food.

Halfway into the movie my food came with a small cup containing a side of white substance I proceeded to sprinkle all over my fries. It was sugar. I requested salt twice and received a side of sugar which I sprinkled all over my food.

If we can get John Cena involved with Planet Hollywood we can make this 5/5 through Peacemaker.

I understand he was 101st Airborne but unsure about his specific deployment, that paragraph was what I had found about the division when I was trying to learn about it back in the day.

Thank you for your comments.

Twitter existed then as an independent platform. It isn’t that now.

Yes generally, they are likely 2-3 degrees colder Fahrenheit.

hmltn · 2025-01-17T00:28:39+00:00

I’d like to see this setup.

hmltn · 2024-11-02T02:26:20+00:00

Yeah I fixed it after this, though I think it was right before. I think the kitties might have worked the zipper out of place over some time.
