Love this! Was in my bookmarks as I had to make a couple of codes late last year to slow the ball in arkanoid, so it could be enjoyed by someone who couldn't keep up. Needed to use FCEU to find the ball speed info and some online references to the 6502 ASM instruction set for substituting instructions to keep the ball slowed.
The HP Elite lapdock works well with Dex on the Note8 and Note 10. Samsung SW used to just mirror the phone display, but some Android update allowed Dex over any detected HDMI connection and has been working well since.
But these days generally prefer to run Dex on Windows instead of carrying another device. Would love to see Dex on Linux happening officially. The workaround, although admirable, seemed too clunky to try [1]
Ah, interesting - it doesn't work at all on my S20 which was pretty disappointing. I've heard something changed with the update to Android 10 on these.
The DeX client on Windows is interesting, I tried it briefly since I still have one Windows machine lying around. I think overall I still prefer the idea of having my phone be the brains and docking to effectively dumb terminals though, provided there are high-quality docks out there I can use. That's also provided the phone/software is powerful and flexible enough though... DeX isn't that for my personal needs, but some of the upcoming Linux phones/DEs might be.
I can't tell if it's a feature of the screen or just the very dark nature of subway tunnels, but I really like the fact that the screen goes completely opaque on the bright blue screens.
Transparent screens could be useful in all sorts of scenarios, but I think tech demos too often ignore the fact that, most of the time, you want the image to be as clear as possible, which means opaque.
I wonder why no one suggested putting a very thin, transparent monochrome LCD behind one of these. It would allow darkening the background, as opposed to OLED's ability to emit light but not block it from passing through. Basically, you'd use two display technologies to complement each other.
I'd love to see transparent screens in windows, like, real holes in buildings and furniture that are usually filled with glass. This would be a step towards ambient computing.
My two batteries were both dead when I pulled it out of my closet last month. Ordered one on ebay, received it, charged it, put it in camera and then saw it come to life again.
Slid in a floppy disk and failed to write to it when pressing the shutter button on the camera. Didn't get it working and forget if I tried to format the floppy from the camera or not, if such method exists?
