We are in the process of taking ADB wifi where it should. If QR code let's you down, a reliable fallback is pairing code. Also make sure you are on a network that doesn't block mdns, ADB relies on it to detect devices.

The scope of code and hardware to cover is dreading. I may find the courage someday.

DOOM uses the cross-product. The dot product is the "pure" and slow way to do it (slow if you don't have a floating point unit, Quake uses the dot-product).
