I finally switched when I moved from Arch to Fedora and it’s worked fantastically for me. This is where the Linux desktop is heading now for sure.

I think they’re okay. I like their video content.

Gallifrey Base, sometimes 😌🤓

Definitely does a lot more than the Vision Pro does though, waaay more useful.

I think you can order prescription lenses with it. Maybe with the halo strap it might accommodate glasses nicely.

Needed to ditch the original strap and put the Bobo M3 strap on it, but once that was done it was the first time I was able to use VR with no weight on my cheekbones. Wildly changed how I felt about it as it was suddenly so comfortable I could use it for hours without discomfort.

I personally feel like the Quest 3 is the most comfortable headset I’ve ever owned (previously owned the CV1 and the Quest 1) and that for me trumps all of its issues with the lens/display setup.

I am desperate for Valve to succeed and really shake up the market but I think they’ll continue to make headsets that cost over $1K and just aren’t palatable to a wider audience. Hopefully Deckard is at the very least good enough to justify that price. I certainly have more faith in them after loving the Steam Deck.

I posted the article mostly for discussion, I personally have had a great time play AC: Nexus VR lately. But it does feel like the market is in a bit of a weird place right now as Meta/Apple are both pushing AR and non-gaming use cases, when the only thing these headsets have really been shown to be superior at is playing games.

Just become a gaming hermit that only emulates PS3 games and you’ll be fine.

Language learning: I tricked myself into building a daily flashcard study habit by using gambling as an incentive. I bought a box of Magic the Gathering packs and allowed myself to open one a day only after I had finished my daily flashcard study. According to Atomic Habits it takes roughly 50 days for a habit to be set in stone as part of your daily routine. A full box of Magic packs took me to day 36. Feels like a bit of an unethical life pro-tip, but once you’re over that hump of forming the daily habit it becomes a lot easier, so find a way to hack your brain and make it feel rewarding until it becomes automatic.

Aha! An answer. Thank you!

I think Memento is open source. It’s good for subtitles->Anki cards.

Some of the best advancements in Canadian social programs have been spearheaded by the NDP, pulling the Liberals to the left. The NDP have, on more than one occasion, held the balance of power and used it to support Liberal minority governments. Pulling support away from Carney in a leftist direction is in no way equivalent to what happened in the most recent American election. We don’t live in a two party system, and I’d very much like to see it kept that way lest we become more like the Americans in yet another way.

Finally some leftist critique of what’s been going on with the Liberal party lately. I feel like everyone got so swept up in the fervour of “oh my god, the Conservatives might not win a landslide this election, this is a miracle!” that they forgot that electing someone further to the right of Trudeau in an already centrist party is no win for leftists.

My devices are named after planets from Doctor Who: mondas, telos, skaro, villengard.

What a coincidence, I was just at a Megalopolis watch party last night haha. There were like two dozen of us hatewatching it. True kino.

I always like to say the fruits of FOSS labour are the common heritage of mankind. It belongs to all of us as a public good, created and maintained by selfless workers. (Nevermind the fact that most FOSS projects are based out of Europe anyways).

I think they’re fantastic. Ghosts is probably my favourite song from them.
