My Flipper Zero. I can force myself to use it and I actually do use the 125khz emulation. But thats it. I feel like I'm wasting it by not hacking with it.
As a side note your gaming laptop wouldnt need to update all the time if it was left on to update. Gaming laptops IMO always suck and desktops are better.
Yeah, neat idea, but if "hacking" isn't already something of a hobby, it's going to just sit around. As mine has.
Same, though in my case my sole use is the IR. Replaced so many random little remotes from random little light up things.
My nephew wants a flipper0! so badly. When i looked into the hardware I found the stack5 cardputer to be more interesting, modular, and cheaper $30 vs $160. I figure $30 is about the right price point for a prank toy (thats all he wants it for) that will get forgotten in a few days, then I can use it myself once its abandoned.
The problem is the space. I can't have it plug all the time and I don't have a desktop
Also I forgot to mention that it forgets my settings on Spiderman and how I settled it with the TV. So many small things that I don't have to worry when I'm using the Xbox
Its because you are unplugging it. Your Xbox only has to worry about displaying to that TV. Your laptop.has to manage when its plugged in or not, and then determine settings based on that. Its why a desktop is generally better for gaming that does not require travel, cause you set it up and leave it, much like your Xbox.
I only have space for 1 "Rig" and a pc cabinet is probably too heavy for my shelf hanging on the wall underneath my bed (my TV is literally on top of me, I sleep under it) also I have so many more games on Xbox 360, one, X... Makes sense why the X is the one always plugged).
I'm just warning you because all the Xbox shit is getting integrated into PC. I dont think Xbox is gonna be here in standalone console form in 15-20 years. They're already interchangeable right now.
Why couldn't they add barcode scanning to the device? Cheap and useful.
Or even a camera? I could use it daily in the IT world for pen testing and video/ picture proof.
It would not add much cost...
Even Wi-Fi is cheap as hell... Yet it doesn't have it.
