A "decent battery" is bigger and more weight to carry around that plenty of use cases don't want or benefit from. It's not small for cost reasons. It's because it's a worse device if you force it to be huge.

The price is high, but only if you ignore how much tech is in it. A lesser but close dumb display from anyone else is thousands in its own.

The design makes perfect sense. You can trivially add an additional pack with capacity if that's your use case. The included pack does the power management and has enough for plenty of people without being in the way, and it's as simple as plugging in any source of USC-C power at appropriate specs to extend it.

The guys pushing "if you masturbate or use a condom you go to hell" and use hell fear mongering as their entire ideology?

So I asked, and you can't do captures to use for the backgrounds with the headset (I'm guessing they use better equipment and maybe some processing), but it does do "spatial photos and video". That was part of the demo in the store and they're really impressive. The 15 pro can also capture a 3D video that still looks cool, but has noticeably less depth than the captures with the headset.

I'm not sure the exact technical details, but there are a whole bunch of cameras and other sensors. I'm assuming it uses all of them combined to capture the 3D photos. But there was a lot of depth in the version I saw in the demo.

Imagine thinking you should be able to use the platform that makes "open source" their whole marketing pitch while locking you into their platform that they have paywalls on, then try to enforce restrictions on how modifications to their "open source" project are allowed to work, for free.

I want it like crazy. No chance I'll wear it in public after I pull the trigger.

I probably would throw it in my backpack on hikes to do some captures of stuff like waterfalls and nice mountain views. They're really nice and not something you can do with my regular camera.

So I didn't end up watching the whole show, but Neil Patrick Harris completely kills it with his theme song for A Series of Unfortunate Events.

lol Taylor Swift dating a player and just attending the Super Bowl (not doing anything) might genuinely bring in multiple million extra viewers.

None of this is "hacking"

The frontal lobe isn't "intelligence". It's executive function, or the ability to properly recognize long term consequences.

I'm not sure 18 is the number. You don't need to wait until 25, though. That's "fully developed", not "over the threshold of capable of making responsible decisions". Very few 18 year olds are.

I'm not sure if/where else they sell them, but every once in a while Costco has some Puma sweatpants that are ~$20 and a nice thickness/durability.

On kindle, if you tap the middle of the screen, then click the little Aa up top, you get formatting options. On reflowable formats, you can go to the more tab and uncheck the animation button. On ones that are fixed pages, it should be one of the only options.
