  • I recently threw my HP printer scanner in the trash. It worked fine until I decided to stop paying monthly for ink and they bricked the cartridges and because the ink was dead I couldn't use the scanner. Fuck HP.

  • I don't think they had any other choice than to make the eye tracking great. They don't make GPU hardware and the hardware they do make can't possibly handle the processing power its resolution requires. Other headsets have understood this limitation and weren't trying to design an OS. Again apple has no choice here. They don't have desktop machines to provide input to the headset and they are way too far up their own ass to allow input from a PC.

  • I thought the same thing. Apple doesn't make GPUs, VR gaming at the crazy resolution this headset uses is going to take a high end desktop GPU but Apple's desktop line up also doesn't have the GPU power it needs and also doesn't support installing discrete GPUs. This headset has no possibility of being used on a PC so a lot of work went into finding ways to limit the GPU workload.

  • I think if other companies threw price limitations out the window like apple did they could have easily made something similar. Also the fact that you still need another headset to play the best parts of what VR already has is ridiculous. It's $3500 TV with no inputs.

  • For starters this is possible on other devices. The specs of those devices may be slightly lower but the "spacial computing" is possible. Secondly what meaningful work could anyone get done pecking away at their VR KB?

  • This is dumb. Anyone installing this is giving absolute full control of their PC to riot and their Chinese owners. This level of control will do nothing to stop the most popular types of cheating from capture cards and AI. It's a huge sacrifice with zero promise.

  • Yeah. Seems ridiculous to imagine buying a headset for $3400 and then needing to buy another headset to actually play games and even if you could find a way to pipe input from a gaming rig, you still have no controllers. Once again we see Apple ignoring established standards at the expense of their customers and selling it as gods gift to the world.
