I love my deck because
But I was wondering what kind of uses other people have with it, as a non gaming machine?
I've been meaning to install ROS (Robot Operating System) on it, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
It's actually my main travel computer. I bring it to work with a Bluetooth keyboard and a little nreal glasses display if I need it. I find that the form factor reduces back and neck strain by allowing me to use different muscle groups. I changed the desktopofe controls to map to a bunch of keyboard shortcuts to make it so that I rarely need the keyboard. I mostly do coding and research on it.
At home, I continue my work on my hammock.
I have it plugged into my TV via dock and use it to watch illegal video streams from sketchy websites that don't have apps. Most often they are live sports streams.
