Camera designs have physical limitations if you value a certain level of quality. For smartphones, this puts manufacturers in a bind. They want to make their smartphones thin, too thin for decent cameras.

As a long-time Eve Online player, it didn't surprise me that the space simulation Elite: Dangerous is also populated by many nerds. Unsurprisingly, there are quite a few tools out there for the game. Among them is a copilot that aims to improve the game with the help of AI.

A TV doesn't fit in our bedroom, but with a projector, we could project movies and shows onto the sloped ceiling. At least, that was the idea that came to me when I saw the Black Friday deal for the VOPLLS 18000L. Is the projector worth the 64 euros?

I deliberately tried the Meta Quest 3 with skepticism and thankfully sent it back. But over the years, I've bought a piece of hardware here and there that I've practically never used. This list only includes devices that I didn't return.

VR mit dem Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge hat mich im Jahr 2016 nicht begeistert. In den neuen Jahren seitdem muss sich doch einiges getan haben, oder? Ich habe mir eine Meta Quest 3 bestellt und mich wieder in die virtuellen Realitäten gewagt. Leider ohne Bilder, ich habe vergessen welche aufzunehmen.

Wer ernsthaft Gameplay von Konsolen aufnehmen oder Streamen will, der macht das über den PC. Elgato und AVerMedia dürften die bekanntesten Hersteller von HDMI Aufnahmegeräten sein, aber auch die teuersten. Gibt es Alternativen?

Would I actually use a 3D printer, or would it just gather dust in a corner after a few weeks? Can I even handle it? These were some of the questions I asked myself last year before Christmas, before letting my girlfriend gift me a Creality Ender-3 V2 Neo.

In my last post, I mentioned that I bought two joysticks for Elite: Dangerous. From Winwing, an URSA MINOR Space for the left hand and an URSA MINOR Fighter for the right. But how do these €200 joysticks hold up?

Joysticks, or HOTAS/HOSAS systems for flight simulators, come in all price ranges. However, the systems only start getting good from around 400 euros. With its URSA MINOR system, Winwing has now lowered this price barrier, making previously expensive technology affordable. But is it any good?

For the last few months, I've been using Obsidian for task management and notes. It worked well, but it didn't feel right. Even though I'm a nerd, sometimes I just like having a pen in my hand. Is the Kindle Scribe the best of both worlds?
