Key quotes
· 4 pulledThe Nano Texture performs wonderfully anywhere where light used to be a factor and used to force me to shade my screen or avoid the place entirely.
Coding and working outside is now feasible: browsing the internet, writing in Obsidian; all delightful.
Black text on white background (light mode) is considerably more readable than white text on black background (dark mode).
Overall a massive step forward for outdoor computing.
