Yep. I’m over Meta no matter how good a future product is. I’m going to try PSVR2 and hope the cable isn’t a bother, while some compelling cordless open comes out by a competitors.

I have a touchy screen running Linux. I only ever accidentally use it.

I have mugs that have lasted decades. Like... how often are people losing mugs? Hell even my travel cups have been on 3 continents.

VRChat as a concept is really good, but in practice the platform fucking sucks. Everything is tied to worlds, you can’t have world-independent objects you can take everywhere,

Nope. I got an email today saying I was getting a “Grade B Quest 1”. I inquired as to what they meant. They said it works but has cosmetic damage. Literally I sent a flawless one in

I thought it was neat until I watched some Japanese porn. It was well produced and I actually felt like I was in the action.
Then I looked down and it scared the crap out of me. I’m getting the uncensored version next time.

I would send it in. There’s a good chance you’ll get a Q2.

This guy vr's. I've enjoyed a couple 3d movies as well, but sim racing is definitely where it's at.

Seems like the best way to get more people into the meta verse is to remove more people from it

Reply to comment by Cosmiccomedian333 in PS5 Console Bundle With Two DualSense Controllers Releasing Soon by chrisdh79
So did the OG controller drift within like a year or something? I'm only asking so I can gauge mine out of curiosity. I've had these 2 DualSenses for about 6 months now and I'm gonna see how far it goes.
I've always been skeptical of peoples anecdotes about drift sometimes because as long as we're not talking about joycons I feel like it comes down to usage only because the last time I got drift was on my dualshock 4 that I left to gather dust and even then that took 3 years to start drifting. started buying controller pouches ever since.
Regardless, I do believe that as long as you're not bashing the controller against a wall It shouldn't drift due to prolonged use but wear and tear is also a thing so I don't really know where to stand here.

I'm upset that I turned on my Oculus Go, which I paid actual money for under the understanding that it would not require a Facebook account to function, and learned that it will now require a Facebook account to function. Even to just side-load 360 photos from my drone apparently.

I use my quest 2 all the time but not for games. I use it to watch Plex on Bigscreen. It’s awesome

Reply to Apple Reportedly Working on Touchscreen Macs, Including MacBook Pro by Avieshek
I carry both a macbook and an iPad. I use my ipad for one purpose and one purpose only: note taking. If my macbook could do that I would neither spend a few hundred dollars extra for an ipad, nor would I carry the extra weight around.
Usually apple is good at implementing good designs. Hopefully this will make my dream come true.
