If you want a really small one I've been happy with this:

Wouldn't recommend for extended typing though.

Thanks. Do you only connect Dex + XReal + Keyboard with no mouse? I'm worried no mouse will be uncomfortable.

If you haven't tried it, especially if your workplace allows your phone to have access to some corporate data, DeX + a good pair of AR or just integrated display glasses feels like the future.

I run my S23 Ultra with a pair of XReal One's, and a folding Bluetooth keyboard (DeX let's you use your phone as a touchpad). It is really amazing in widescreen mode sitting in a coffee shop, reading through technical documents and answering work email. When I'm done, it can all fold up and fit in a (spacious) pair of cargo shorts.

I think Samsung has played the long game on DeX, with an eye towards their collaborative XR glasses with Google next year. As great as XReal has been, I am eager to see a "first-party" solution.

According to https://developers.cloudflare.com/turnstile/

A pay-as-you-go option for advanced features will be available in early 2024 for self-serve customers.

Users can continue to access these advanced features below our 1 million siteverify request limit.

So it seems it will be not so good for free users.

Does anyone with an AQI sensor in their house actually use it to control HVAC equipment, or is it just for monitoring? In a commercial HVAC control system, if the AQI sensor (or CO2/NO2) reaches [setpoint], a make-up air unit and exhaust fan (or similar setup, could be an exhaust fan and outside air damper) will turn on until the AQI value is below the setpoint. Is anyone using an AQI sensor to energize a relay coil to turn on their furnace fan to try and correct PM2.5 and CO2 levels?

In Korea, they sell complete systems that do this. Basically sensor and HVAC and/or kitchen stove fan. These systems are built in high-end new apartments.

This is a real pity. With this latest move it seems they just ate the new kid on the block. Akamai in my experience is not cheap, certainly not to the level Stackpath was. I saw big cost savings by switching from an Akamai CDN setup to stackpath.

As a Stackpath customer, I also received an email from Akamai welcoming me aboard. They provided a helpful where I could start a 90 day trial of several competing services ... none of which seemed like a like-for-like match, leaving me a bit confused. There's also no indication of pricing (typical Akamai). Seems like it's time to look for an alternative.

highclass · 2 years ago

May I ask how much you were paying Stackpath per year, as Akamai "welcomed" you aboard and I don't think they are doing that for all customers?
