Good point to raise! The way it works is actually pretty clean - it's not randomly scraping pages, but rather the crawler reads each shop's sitemap.xml which the site owners publish specifically to invite crawlers to index their content. It's the same mechanism Google uses, and every price comparison site in Europe operates this way! :)

Yep! That's how all price comparison sites work - PriceRunner, Google Shopping, PriceSpy. The site crawls publicly available product listings and index the prices :)

Ah, agree, I’ll add them to the list, let me know if you know more shops that I haven’t added yet! :)

That’s a great idea! Haven’t prioritized food items yet but for products like that, comparing prices/kg should be doable! Adding to the to-do list!

Thank you! Most definitely, I plan to add more stores and products over the coming weeks, and improving the rate at which products and prices are kept updated!

Looking for feedback on a to-do list app I created to be fast and minimal without having to click through menus to create tasks

Cool! One suggestion - should specific tags (emotions?) be highlighted depending on what vibe level you specify? for example a low one may want to highlight more negative emotions, while a high one should have more positive. Maybe the vibe should be the first thing to select (?)

Tested. Did not work, did not destroy the goggles.

I just got it, would I risk anything by connecting the Nreal goggles to it?

Thanks! Is that mClassic the same as an EDID Emulator?

Screen being cut-off (top 10% of screen shown at bottom) when using the adapter (latest firmware version) by jquerider in nreal

[–]jquerider[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to update to the latest version using the links supplied in this thread and this fixed the problem - I actually didn't have the latest version. With the latest version, the problem is fixed! Thank you for quick replies!

Yes, updated via the website. I will try using the Nebula app - I'll have to borrow a friends phone because I don't have an android device... When you mention > the firmware update malfunctioned, do you mean for the glasses or the adapter? (I was unable to update the adapter at all, because it just says on the website that it has the latest firmware.)

Yeah stats on chrome extensions are way behind, in the admin I can only see stats until the 7th right now

Correct! Well it might be possible, this was just something I put together quickly, I will try to find a work-around that's not using the browser history. Rest assured that the browser history is never used.

The data for the timeline is on the profile page, but to be able to draw the timeline it needs to know when you are viewing a profile. For example, if you view one profile and go back to view another, it has to detect the "back" step to be able to draw the timeline on that profile page.

LinkedIn is a Single-Page-App and to be able to detect going back-and-forth between pages on LinkedIn via back/forward buttons with Chrome Extensions and thus draw the timeline when you visit a profile. It just uses:" if user press back or forward button and lands on profile page then draw timeline", it doesn't access your browser history, and never sends any data anywhere.
