when I worked at GE Healthcare, we had hundreds of hololensii and I never saw them used for anything other than playing Tetris and other games

Agile Vector posted:i kinda liked bagging. the front manager was decent and when we got self-checkout the few people that dared use them were easy to bag for at their cautious pace I feel this in my core. I was a bagger in my early teens and the mental sorting algorithm I built to bag groceries is forever seared in my brain. I can bag groceries today and fall right back into it

rotor posted:Sun mice and the little calibrated metal plate you had to put them on these ruled because they came out at a time when optical mice were absolutely unheard of. the place I worked at doing helpdesk as a teenager had sun machines because they interfaced well with our ancient AS/400 and Oracle system. the day those mice showed up in the round of sun machine upgrades, they blew everyone’s minds. they also let me take home like 5 Sun pizza box machines because ~90’s internet and data security~ I wish I still had them. ALSO a big part of my job was going out in the shop and swapping the rubber keyboard covers on the as/400 dumb terminals because they would get shredded up with use and without them the keyboards got irreparably clogged with weld dust.

I went to college in that wonderful time where floppies were still super prevalent, but files had gotten big enough that they often didnt fit on floppies, and USB flash media didnt exist yet, or at least didnt exist at a price that a college student could reasonably afford. ZIP disks were literally everywhere

I worked in my colleges computer labs (remember computer labs? lol) and every single computer in every lab was fitted with an IDE Zip drive, and I dont think I saw one failure the whole time I worked there. The IDE hard drives on the other hand? We had a stack of those as replacements

The worst part was most CD burning software of the day had a little graph for the buffer and you could watch it empty out. You knew that thing was gonna be a coaster before the computer even did

android has held onto headphone jacks way longer than iOS. just get an old anroid phone, stick your various apps on it and do that. I’d argue that all touch interfaces are functionally the same and the only reason to chase older iPods is for the touch/click wheel, which does absolutely rule. if I could bind my AirPods to my old iPod classic I’d absolutely do it.

depends on the use case. for gaming, color accuracy isn’t super critical. if you’re color grading in premiere or something, then yeah, you need the accuracy
