I am so confused why you’d trade the OLED screen for the XReal glasses which seem like an extra complication for no upside.

You should try gaming on the XReal glasses - or any of the recent XR glasses for that matter (the Viture XR Pro being my favourite). In terms of both ergonomics and experience, it's next level.

What makes the Viture XR Pros better (to you) than XReal glasses? I'm open to trying a pair for my steam deck.

Side question: are those glasses any good? I almost got myself a pair

If your head is on the smaller to medium size. And avoid v1 of xreal, even if you find a good deal. Their hinges are super weak. They said they fixed it in subsequent models.

This isn't all that different to how I use my gaming PC - it's off in another room, with a monitor that is plugged in but almost always off (I don't think Windows will boot without at least something plugged in?), Steam set to start on boot, and then I entirely use it via Steam Remote Play from my main PC.

Are NUCs with batteries unserved market? Just thinking of them as concept. How popular would they be?

Linus Tech Tips editors spoke briefly on how they’re bringing Mac minis with them to events to edit on the go.

I didn't know Mac Minis had good batteries in them. How many hours do they last on full load?
