My 2018 MacBook Air finally gave in to a Flexgate issue. It’s happening for the second time, and my repair guy quoted me $260 to fix it.
It felt pointless to throw money at a recurring problem, especially when it’s because of Apple’s design flaw. So I opted for a new 2020 model with the M1 chip.
While I waited for it to ship, I tried to make a secondary monitor out of my other devices. First, I used the Samsung DeX mode on my Rayneo Air 3s Pro smart glass series.
Then I tried my Meta Quest 3S. I couldn’t use the headset’s Remote Desktop because of my blank screen, but its browser app was all I needed to resume my workflow.
I discovered a whole world beyond my own where I could do and be anything. Here are some of my favorite activities to try on the headset.
