It’s so cool I want to die 😩. I would never use it but it looks great.
I saw a wrist mounted thing the other day, and I was thinking a modern touchscreen version running Linux could legitimately be great with a good mount. This would be perfect for that. You only need a wrist mount that won’t make your arm sweaty…
That’s an impressively designed bit of kit.
Guess I have to go barter with the architecture department to use their 3d printer…
is it touchscreen? looks great
Yes, it’s a touchscreen.
cool, is it compatible with different DEs?
Get out of here!
(Edit: Yes, of course. It’s Linux.)
@kde@floss.social @soulscircuit @kde@lemmy.kde.social that’s so cool
Nice idea, using 2 batteries instead of one. Now to see if it can be hot-swappable
For the clockwork pi uConsole, which is a similar product and also uses two batteries, that seems to be the case
I kinda want one of these.
@kde@floss.social @soulscircuit @kde@lemmy.kde.social omg I can imagine that becoming a perfect DJing computer paired with Mixxx and a Pioneer controller
I was thinking this would be a otg deck for traveling. Adding ports galore (hdmi,dp etc) and being fully cast ready - you could dock it anywhere and take everything with you in a small form factor. Working in handheld mode on the plane, then casting/hooking to your hotel room tv with a BT keeb would be a dream. Given the customization inherent, this could blow Samsung Dex out of the water.
@kde@floss.social @soulscircuit @kde@lemmy.kde.social that keyboard, complete with the laser pointer button, looks very familiar! Nice job squeezing it into a new housing. The trackball too 👀
@kde@floss.social @soulscircuit @kde@lemmy.kde.social ok yeah i want this
@kde@floss.social @soulscircuit @kde@lemmy.kde.social “this action is not allowed.” So much for following…
@kde@floss.social @soulscircuit @kde@lemmy.kde.social when I, Gnomian, can love Plasma :raspberrypi:
Imagine bringing a calculator to school but it turns out its just an entire desktop 😭
