Made this Vim rhythm game this past long weekend. I felt I didn't have any proper pressure to get faster at Vim motions while coding, so a rhythm game felt apt. Try it out!

Ive used firefox for a decade, theres only two features I want: uBlock origin on iOS (hard?) and PWA support on Desktop

Thanks for the kind words! As I briefly mention in my video, my teammate actually had guitar tabs going, with lyrics chords and even web scraping/search. I think a bit of refinement and better hardware and we'll get what you're looking for

I tried using lilypond actually but ran into an error that no one seemingly knew how to solve. Can try digging through my history if you're interested

Agreed! These glasses do look very normal - only tell is that at a certain angle you can see the green of the screen, and the part near the ear is a bit bigger (but easy to conceal with hair)

Thank you!

This would make the most sense, since MuseScore is notoriously litigious about usage and redistribution of their library/MusicXMLs, so a collaboration would be necessary to get a usable music catalog for smart glasses

If I were designing around this limit, I would put enough memory to be able to store a nice buffer of bitmaps in either direction and then do sends that don't change what's currently displayed. I feel like that memory probably exists, I just don't have access to the firmware sadly

Yeah, it's a big deal for sure, I was bugging Mentra all hackathon to try and lower it, and also reached out to Even for suggestions (which Mentra is implementing). Regardless, I made it work and next gen hardware, firmware and software are all definitely going to be better for bitmaps

I use stirling-pdf for this, ran locally with

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -e DOCKER_ENABLE_SECURITY=false --name stirling-pdf frooodle/s-pdf:latest

Lots of features, OP you should definitely check this out

Another huge time sink is rotoscoping, e.g. in my video I rotoscope the legs of the piano bench and its a cool effect but it took almost an hour for those few seconds. AI has come far here, but afaik there's no great, free workflow yet. Would love to Docker compose something on my computer, open a webapp, drag my clip in and export segmented videos.

For me, it's still easy to mess up for complex sections if I'm not peeking at the keyboard every so often. Its true that muscle memory takes over after you reach a level of familiarity but not quite to the extent of biking

A lot of the time is from the glasses themselves, but apparently Mentra talked to the Even CEO and next gen bitmaps will be much better
