Yeah it would be nice if wifi direct was in the app itself, but it only uses the network you're connected to. So if you local send with one phone connected to the other via hotspot (just like wifi direct) then local send will send directly and be faster. When I tried with my laptop and phone it was about 30 MB/s.

Thanks now I'm using FUTO. Very nice design for a FOSS app.

Well as a search engine it's very limited, try to think of it more as a text generator. It's much more useful to create letters/documents, organize thoughts, create code etc.

Thanks for the heads up about the issues. I'll probably wait for 10.9.1 too.

Well I did notice it's been hotter lately

I'm lucky to be in Asia since I can easily use redmi phones here (doesn't work well with USA carriers). 3.5mm is still really useful for me, but if there's no more options I'll probably get a 3.5mm to BT adapter.

Open a document and hold down on the page number then drag it to the position you want

I have a cheap no brand of this and while the camera quality is not as good as a phone, it's pretty convenient and faster for bulk scanning.

If you're talking about OSS scanner documents, you can add pages anytime.

It's a media center, you can play your local files or you can use add-ons like the official jellyfin addon and connect to any jellyfin server.

If you're comparing the official jellyfin client apps to kodi, then kodi looks much nicer with more features but requires better hardware. It should work on on your Mac fine but depending on what android tv specs you have it may be a bit slower than the jellyfin client.

Kodi doesn't have a server feature like plex does where you can serve media to other devices. A more direct alternative would be jellyfin, which even works well with kodi as the media player.

 

Beamshots and Comparisons

I just got a Convoy H1 519a 4500k for about $20 as a first decent headlamp, it's really great for the price with a few weaknesses.

The H1 is easy on the eyes and the TIR is nice and covers a wide view. Compared to my S2+ which uses 519a at 4000k the difference is noticeable (see photos in link).

The UI is cool as it's the first ramping light I used, but it ramps a bit too fast. Compared to the S2+, the H1 has some advantages like shortcuts for strobe/turbo/moonlight/batt check, while on the S2+ I just disabled those since I didn't want them in the main rotation. The button also takes some getting used to since you hold down the button (not half-press) for secondary functions.

The body feels really nice and sturdy and not as heavy as expected when wearing it with a head strap. More compact than the S2+. I got a magnet from Convoy and glued it to the tail which was super easy to do, just a bit messy. After removing the excess glue with alcohol, it looks great. The head strap is pretty hard to put on since you have to force it into the rubber loops, but once it's on it's very secure.
