Comment on I ditched my laptop for a pocketable mini PC and a pair of AR glasses — here’s what happened
Ulrich@feddit.org 6 days agoYou’re not wrong but this is a distinctly different experience. Some these AR glasses allow you to have multiple giant virtual displays instead of the tiny ~14 inch one.
Although I would argue that it would make more sense just to plug the glasses into a laptop.
But also you can use your preferred keyboard and mouse (with more space for the mouse).

The point is that this is a fake assertion to push a product.

Whats a fake assertion? This thing doesn’t need to completely revolutionize the industry or replace existing products completely to be viable and useful for some. I personally think it’s a neat idea even though I have zero use for a portable device outside of my phone. I seriously can’t comprehend why people seem to be getting outraged in the comments here over something that has zero effect on them or their life whether it exists or not.

Lemmy lately has been on an outrage fest it’s getting kind of exhausting. Topics in just about everything I follow are almost all outrage with out critical thinking.

Yeah, I don’t get that either. I assume that they’re thinking that the author must be trying to sell the glasses or something.
I’ve written numerous comments before talking about the challenges and pitfalls of building almost identical systems on here, and people didn’t downvote those.

I can work at my desk using only my laptop. Do I want to, and is it my actual setup? No, and no. My laptop is plugged into my ultra wide screen, my mechanical keyboard and my mouse. That’s what he meant, and that’s what I found interesting.

How is it fake?
