Guarding against people doing shit that goes against common sense -- as well as Apple's "very explicit" warnings -- while using a third party battery that maybe might somehow malfunction, is an annoying reason for them to make a decision that costs me extra money.
Wow that's actually terrifying! The best part is while watching their cool video showcasing how terrifying it was, the WSJ exemplified why in part by jamming an ad right in there when I tried to skip ahead. Hope a full screen ad never blocks the view of someone skiing, it might end badly.
The AVP is not AR though. Regardless of passthrough and their "Spatial Computing" marketing. It's a VR headset that will black out, and not stop "augmenting", the moment the battery get's disconnected. If you're skiing that might very well be the difference between hitting a tree (or worse, another person) and avoiding it.
I pushed it on the subject and, to paraphrase, it claims to be similar to an LLM (in that it's trained on a large corpus and uses statistical models to determine which tokens to respond with) but that, unlike an LLM, it uses machine learning to continually learn from its interactions with people. According to Pi, that's the key differentiator between it and an LLM.
It's bad. I have a ASUS MB16AHP (claiming a brightness of 220cd/㎡, contrast ratio 700:1) and yeah, in a brightly lit room viewing can be difficult. It's ok under normal office lighting but you'll be out of luck if you have sunlight flooding in. I've been searching for a brighter option but most (all?) the current offerings seem to be based on the same or similar internals.
Still, it's a useful device while traveling – nice to be able to plop a decent multi-monitor setup out of a backpack. My model also has a micro HDMI port (and an internal battery) which can be handy if you need a temporary screen for a Raspberry Pi or a machine that usually runs headless.

The files don't need to be valid, just have the extension you want to associate, so you can do something like `touch _.mp3 _.mp4 _.m4a _.mkv` then select those files and set them all at once.

From when?!? What good is a relative timeline of events and your "current" thinking without a timestamp?
Digging though the source, it looks like this is from a few days ago.. "created_at":"2024-02-14T01:45:45.254Z"
