Recently I came over the Grays GT-Eyewear at a local squash center, when playing a random game with a friend. I asked to try them on, and just the feel when putting them on convinced me to buy them, afterall, it’s pretty cheap anyways. After playing some sets I was surprised of their ability to keep fog-free. After about 30 sets with the glasses I can safely say that the design works. As for the sweat on the glasses, a head band combined with the natural distance they have from your face, it’s not an issue anymore. If I have one thing to complain about, it’s that they introduce a minimal curvish feel to the vision. This is most notable when going from complete peripheral view on one side to the other. Overall I am impressed and 200 kr well spent.

A colleague told me about a switch you could use when cloning subversion repos. git svn clone -s
The -s is a switch that makes git download and replay the commit history of the subversion repository typically resulting in a much smaller code repo on your local computer as it uses its internal structure instead of downloading all files as subversion does. Sounds nice, but takes forever in bigger projects. So far an import of a on disk complete 4 GB repo with about 2k commits has taken 24 hours.

The save was Asus homepage drivers. But Microsoft threw a curveball… If you don’t load drivers as the first thing you do, it won’t let you install. Refresh didn’t help, and I only found out by coincidence that loading the drivers first was necessary. Loading them after selecting disk doesn’t work. Lovely
