It’s getting cold and so I’m fumbling with my phone and other devices.

I like the idea of a large screen on my forearm, but I’m not sure how it would work. Maybe it would be cool?

I see some company tried in 2014 and probably didn’t get anywhere (see Arubixs Portal), and there was that infamous Kickstarter too

    I built myself a HUD using a VuFine LCD and a raspi Zero W. It runs a custom TUI I wrote for myself that provides an interactive terminal session surrounded by configurable text widgets.

    Currently, I have widgets configured to display the date/time, the weather (near-term and week), and CPU/Mem utilization. With the main display running my combined to-do/calendar app to help keep me organized.

    It’s tacky as hell, bulky and exposed wires, but I love it.

      This is the dystopian 80’s-cyberpunk future that I want!
