What the fuck do you even do on a tall scree... Oh its basically a portable vertical monitor

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 days ago

I use dual monitors one on top of each other. If I had this I would simply stack 2 windows.

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 1 points 6 days ago

How expensive is it anyway isn't it just better to get a second monitor if you have to?

I mean, that demo model looks like a hot mess of ripples and artefacts from this angle.

Can you make it more ugly and prone to mechanical failure for no gain.

slaps screen

you can fit so much “AI” in this bad boy

[–] seven_phone@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

A lot of current laptop designs are leaving free space around the battery so more AI can be poured in at a later date, through a dedicated nipple presumably.

Bring back the trackpoint you bastards !

They didn't take the TrackPoint away, did they?!

Edit: They really did... Way to kill a brand guys. I blame every goddamn tech journalist who wanted it gone, fuck you so much.

We need track points on handheld PCs. Are they patented?

[–] FireWire400@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

No, as far as I know the first GPD Win had one even

I have a better idea: a laptop screen that is legible on a sunny day

[–] eru@mouse.chitanda.moe 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

so eink pretty much though the refresh rate is shit

[–] tias@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Funny you should say that because Lenovo made a laptop with an e-ink screen (as graciously linked by someone else in this thread) about a year ago. But it never came to my market, and I suspect this rollable one won't either. I don't think they're serious about selling any of these, it's just marketing gimmicks.
