I’ve written about Chinese tech startup Chuwi a number of times in the past, mainly because they’ve been making some pretty solid Windows machines at very, very low prices.

The following story isn’t a script for a bad Hangover sequel, though Hollywood should definitely adapt it for the big screen. Remember that incredibly cool motorbike helmet that took Indiegogo by storm exactly two years ago? The Skully AR-1 was supposed to be the coolest bike helmet ever, featuring an advanced heads up display complete …
