how do you change its settings, like the aspect ratio, the dimming or the distance?

They have an OSD like in a regular monitor. You press the mode switch button twice to bring it and navigate using the ± brigness buttons. For dimming you hold the brightness rocker to start adjusting the dimming. For everything else there is an OSD menu like in a regular monitor. You bring it by double pressing the switch button and navigate with the brightness buttons.

how does it know where is forward in anchor mode? if you are sitting in a vehicle that is turning, can you keep it using as if nothing has happened?

It’s only 3 DoF without the eye add-on, so when you move, the monitor moves with you.

how do you do chores with it? I mean, what do you connect it to, and where do you place it so that it’s not in the way?

I just connect it to my Retroid Pocket Flip and put it into my pocket. Then I just enable side mode in the glasses, so it displays the image in the corner. And use my 8BitDo to navigate in the device.

what do you do to not get tangled in the cable, and to not get stuck on something?

The default cable is just very short :) It’s a distance from the glasses to my pocket with about extra 15-20 cm.

But it’s not VR. It’s basically an OLED monitor in front of my eyes. I can’t say it’s healthy, but I wouldn’t say it’s that bad.

I’m curious how public ownership is managed. Do they also have people in charge, but they can be elected? And what motivates their decisions?

From what I understand, with private ownership there are directors who make decisions based on profit motives. Which doesn’t always align with what consumers want. Which is bad, of course.

How publicly owned differs from privately owned? I assume there are no person who collects the profit, is it correct?

Ukraine. Of course, it could just be a local thing since it depends on your social circle. But the things my parents told me make total sense to me.

I’ve asked many people who were born in the USSR, and I think about half of them feel that the shit we’ve had since then is way worse.

It wasn’t perfect by any means, but I think we should have improved it with reforms instead of splitting into poor countries and giving all the power to oligarchs.

Interesting observation!

Honestly, I’d buy a phone with RK3588S, but $1,300 is overkill. I’d rather much prefer to downscale other specs to make it around 400-500$.

Here is the comparison with Tensor G4.

RK3588S is a bit slower then Snapdragon 865, which is 5 year old.

I think RK3588S is nowhere near Pixel 9 CPU.

Awesome progress! What Linux phones do you use?

I have a PinePhone Pro, but it’s quite low-end…

Great news, I also found Plamo a bit sluggish in the past! Will give it a go!

Welcome aboard!

Never got a virus or at least I don’t know about it 😅 But always install packages from official repositories or AUR (but I usually inspect PKGBUILDS for unpopular stuff).

I use Neovim, love their Lua direction.

Yep, and for anyone who curious why it’s not actually decentralized, I highly suggest to read this thread from someone who worked on ActivityPub:

I heard good things about lemmus.org

Won’t they just replace one CEO with another and increase their security?

I think for proper defense we need to unite against them.

Not defending the CEO, just saying that killing him won’t solve the actual problem :(

On Mastodon in settings you need to enable your account discoverability. Otherwise people will see you only if they know about you. This is weird default and my main complain about Mastodon :(

Pick any instance that suits your interests: https://joinmastodon.org/en/servers There is also this picker.

Can’t they change this status?

Ah, I can do it inside the client, thank you!
