Nostr Web Client

Just recently when I was sick I binged a few seasons on it in a week and it never got uncomfortable to hold. Also have a cheap wooden stand that I can place it into.

There's a free app that natively works to extend your macOS desktop to the tablet. Once I'm back home I can share a link. Most alternatives require some shady Mac app's that I don't trust. Unfortunately not open source though.

Before the Daylight Computer I read mostly blog posts and some longreads on it in bed but no books. I seldomly game and if I do it doesn't require performance because it's stuff like Fleet Battle with my roomie: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.smuttlewerk.fleetbattle 😌

Thanks! Yeah, that would be brilliant. And I get it... I have to admit I game more than I should on mobile using Moonlight, Xbox Cloud, etc. But for me, it’s less about performance (aside from low-latency video, encoding and decoding, which the Snapdragon Elite handles quite well), and more about having a 13" tablet in a telescopic controller for longer sessions. The smaller tablets would certainly fit this use case better. But if you’ve marathoned series with it, I assume reading or gaming for an hour or two won’t be the end of the world.

The macOS remotint stuff looks really, really smooth as well. See the video at the end. I can get this sort of performance with Moonlight + Sunshine on Linux, but not on macOS (not even when I was paying a premium for Parsec). Check out the final video playback at:

Ouch, I completely missed the display bump to 13” for Pad 3. There is no smaller option. This increases the weight significantly from my 552g to 675g. Beware of that.

Perhaps check out Pad 2 instead? It’s just a minor size + weight increase that won’t be noticed. For comparison: https://www.smartprix.com/tablets/compare.php?ids=pd17ng9egwr,pd174fz2j3l,pd1v4r1t6h7,pd10gw3u79q&ref=compare_page_add

At least in Germany it’s currently in sale with a free keyboard but with the older design: https://www.oneplus.com/de/buy-oneplus-pad-2
