> This guy really thought this and this are equally sharp.

Hello? That's the whole point? You are the one banging on about "perceived" things - here is Notebookcheck, telling you that despite how the subpixel array looks, the image is not grainy. But that's not convenient for your argument, is it?

> DESPITE THE MATTE COATING

So? People love sticking to established lingo even if it's wrong.

> And yet, you haven't managed to produce one matte screen that can match the sharpness of glossy panels, let alone exceed them in sharpness.

I did, but you ignored it because it's inconvenient.

> So does the Macbook Air, so I guess matte doesn't do shit regarding reflections?

LOL no it doesn't. This is how it looks outdoors. Half the screens is obscured with the reflection. And here is the Acer - not a hint of glare.

> Lol, that's why the Eve 4k with glossy was more sharp than the one with matte?

But... it isn't.

> By your logic setting the colorimeter 5 feet away from the display will give the exact same readings. Some "facts".

... how did you come to this conclusion?

> And who exactly is claiming that? Making up arguments because no real ones available?

Can link you dozens of threads on reddit where people keep droning on about this. Here is the latest one.

> You: All panels are matte by default!!! Glossy is just layer over matte!!!

So we've established from the article that it's a spectrum rather than binary. I explicitly mentioned that the "stripped" panel without the outer layer isn't the same as an all-out glossy panel with a glass layer, and that it falls somewhere in between. My argument still stands: to create an actual glossy panel, you need a layer of glass/hard plastic on top. Like MacBooks, smartphones, etc do. If you don't have that, your screen isn't glossy, end of story. It's just somewhere on that spectrum in between - and I've taken apart enough broken LCDs for hobby projects to know that not every one of them looks like this with the top layers stripped.

> EDIT: Oh yeah, weren't you claiming "perception" was snake oil? Got on that train very quick when you found "light matte" is close to glossy in that regard lol.

Except that's not "perception", that's literally a material with different qualities used and the article you linked states so.

This exactly!

Why do you need every soldier carrying and powering the detection-classification-perception system for that, when you can have one such system in the platoon, as needed, from which the track can be transmitted (aka. told) to you when and only when the guy who actually knows how to use it well determines it useful to give you this information.

Like soldiers don't have a hundred other things to carry and think about to fulfill their own specialized roles?

Was curious who developed the BCI, per article “The brain-computer interfaces that Shenoy’s team works with involve a small pad of sharp electrodes embedded in a person’s motor cortex, the brain region most involved in movement. This allows researchers to record activity from a few dozen neurons at once and find patterns that reflect what motions someone is thinking of, even if the person is paralyzed.”

Similar to neuralink and other BCI startups this is a surgical component imbedded through the skull. With companies like synchron which are developing a stent like BCI that is much less invasive surgery it will be interesting which becomes the go to form of BCI for the disabled.

> PITA in the neck

Was it a pain in the neck though

As someone that hated all the shit I had to hump in Iraq. This stuff would be at the top of the list to accidentally fall into a shit filled canal.

I'd be shocked if these things didn't fog up the moment an infantryman had to bound 50 meters.

The tech isn’t close to there yet. It’s an awesome concept but execution is waaaay way off.

Idk if that’s the only purpose; would be great for NCOs and combat officers. But yeah for Forward Observers this would be nuts, way easier to coordinate artillery and air support

AR doesn’t cause motion sickness. There’s no way it could.

Hell not bad, that's faster than I type!

You’d be lucky if you could even get batteries during Iraq/Afghanastan. I used to work with the AR/MR/VR teams that were laid off. Even though I was in the military, they wouldn’t listen to me when I told them tech like Hololens would never work in the field. And here we are 6 years later. But I was just a dirty contractor so what do I know?

Yeah but imagine if they were able to overlay sensor data on the display showing where radio signals were emanating from then the soldiers would know there's possibly a cell phone, person or remote bomb there.

Man, I'm baffled about how little perspective people on Reddit have. They're always complaining about AR/VR, AI, game streaming and stuff as if tech don't always get faster, lighter and cheaper over time

There's stuff that are dumb conceptually, like blockchain, but that's a different talk

Less lethal? Maybe we should give this military tech to police in the US instead of 50 cal snipers and immunity from the law

Who woulda thunk that strapping 5lbs of shit onto someone’s face would suck

It's more likely the military were interested in the tech so invested in checking it out.

ACTUALLY faster… Enjoy! :-)

Nothing to do with SOC but number of NAND chips on the board.

>“When Macworld tested with the Blackmagic disk speed app, the 16-inch MacBook Pro with M2 Pro in a 2TB storage configuration achieved a read speed of 5,372 MB/s and a write speed of 6,491 MB/s. The previous-generation 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M1 Pro chip and 1TB of storage scored a slightly higher 5,797 MB/s read speed than the 16-inch M2 Pro; however, it scored a lower write speed of 5,321 MB/s.”

Let’s see PCI-e 4.0 speeds too.

Oh look the Dell and HP laptops are ACTUALLY much SLOWER... So much for PCs have been enjoying faster speeds for years... Oops! You are still utterly clueless!

The army should have invested in Hololive instead of Hololens.

Less effective would be better.

I can’t see a thing in this helmet!

That mf had a lot to say lmao.

This is the tech we look back on in 30 years and are like "wow I'm glad the military funded this" like the Internet. These are the early building blocks building the foundation of tech we're all going to be using in 2040.

It's above the average typing speed at least

The only way to get rich in the Army is to be a civilian.
