    I wish they showed videos with a human model or the retractable mechanism. At first glance the visor seems large enough to cover the face, but based on the HUD simulation I guess i…

    To be fair the ~150MB is for the CEF scenario (when chromium gets bundled); and eventually they want to introduce a shared CEF runtime across apps.

    If you want image nonograms (as opposed to randomized nonograms), you can try Nonoverse[1]; I made it for the same reasons. [1]: https://lab174.com/nonoverse

    Nonoverse[1], a nonogram puzzle game. I’m prioritizing user experience and QoL features, I’d like to build something calming and user friendly. I recently added support for user ge…

    I hope they are working hard on the xpro4! Retro styled cameras are only gaining in popularity; the competition is increasing, but Fujifilm has a big head start. And still many con…

    Surprisingly, there were DRM games praised for good UX, only these were hardware releases. When Switch 1 launched, it got re-releases (eg: Diablo 3) that were: 1. complete editions…

    I guess the modern day equivalent (technology that’s relatively new, unsafe and unregulated) would be electric scooter polo? I found no sign of a sport like this though. I think ki…

    I guess we don’t know what the agent would do after seeing these warnings and a request for extra action. Perhaps it would stop and rethink, perhaps it would focus on the fact that…
