Yeah I’m only talking about the Mac monitor. You’re right ofc, all the iPad-like windows are more customizable and there can be more of them. Only for my workflow that wouldn’t help much since all the windows I’m working with have to actually come from the Mac.

Isn’t it just the one screen that your Mac has but scaled as big as you want? You could probably change the size to small and get more space that way, but it’s not a different monitor if I understand that correctly. And you can’t change the aspect ratio. I might be wrong, but I remember being very disappointed when finding out about this.

I’d love to have this similar to the profile, where all the "inbox (all)" content is shown directly under these menu items

Regarding the monitor: the resolution is the same (apart from you being able to make it bigger, I think there’s still the same space) and there’s only one monitor available and that’s replacing your Mac screen. That seems to be an obvious use case, but in its current form it feels somewhat useless (unless I’m misunderstanding something).

I don’t think he’d lie about that. He wasn’t even asked about it, he said it himself without being prompted

I agree. I don’t think we’re there yet, but next time the they give people another reason to leave the Lemmy/kbin ecosystem will be even more appealing. Simply the app and dev community here is really exploding.

I wonder what he’s doing with it. I’d guess just regular work with a mac? Or sitting on the couch watching videos?

I’m not sure what this is trying to say and whether or not that‘s homophobe.

The latest podcast season of Land of the giants is about Tesla, I‘m finding that quite interesting so far: first episode

[…] a phenomenon known as vergence-accommodation conflict (VAC).

That’s because the brain is fooled into thinking that a virtual object is some distance away, when the reality, of course, is that the displays are very close to your eyes.

This is a very common misunderstanding, but "the displays are close to your eyes therefore you get VAC" is just wrong.

Yes, the display is close to your eyes, but there are lenses that move the focus plane further away. VAC comes from the fact that that focus is fixed, and looking at something close by would mean you’d still have to focus your eyes further away to see it sharply. There are (research) headsets with the displays just as close, but with something in them that let you focus on different planes (e.g. movable lenses).

Twice I think. I guess it highly depends on where you’re leaving it and how close it is to you. I got one in my wallet which I rarely have on me and that ones draining a lot faster than my keys which I always have with me. Also the more AirTags you have to more you have to swap, so it’s definitely welcome to do that as seldomly as possible.

Doesn’t do precision tracking though, so you don’t get the arrow and exact distance

Or just longer battery life with the current battery size

I was looking for something like this but eventually gave up and just put a regular one in the coin pocket

What would you wish for in a new version?

I think you convinced me to actually do it

For me it’s better, but not gone entirely

Ah nice, I didn’t know that was possible. Thanks :)

Apollo had that, right? I wouldn’t say it’s missing it as much as it was missing the default behavior of scrolling to the top. But if you want to make a feature request you can probably do that on GitHub

Indeed it is, thanks :) That was quite fast
