A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's really amazing how much power you can get for cheap in a small package these days. But yeah putting a battery on that wouldn't be practical, it's still a very efficient chip, but in absolute terms eats a bunch of power. So you'd need to be tethered. You could easily wear one of those mini pcs, but need a power cable. One of those could be dropped down from the ceiling, but still not as good as a mobile solution.
