You know… I totally forgot that I set that as my display name. No offense taken, obviously. I use a third-party Lemmy client so it never shows me that. 🤷♂️
Used or owned? I own one and bought several for my company and they’re not useless at all. They’re just limited in the AR/VR experiences you can do right now. As a computer, productivity, and production device, it’s far from useless.
Hah. I have to have my volume set to multiples of 8 because I got so used to doing bit conversions and using systems where I octets are used. Even DooM and the old DooM editors used multiples of 8 for things like floor heights and texture sizes.
Yes and yes. Currently I use Moon Player and that supports all the major formats - SBS (both full and half), OU (both full and half), 360 and 180 immersive, and fisheye videos too. It supports SMB shares through the Apple Files app, DLNA support, and work-in-progress YouTube support.
None of the people that own one that I know and none of the ones that we bought for our company use have had this issue. I’m convinced it’s from people setting it down on the front glass instead of using the provided cover.
I love how everyone that’s answering has all these hot takes and doesn’t own one when you specifically asked for answers from owners…
I have one. It’s awesome. The screen mirroring from Macs alone is worth it. The weight isn’t as bad as people claim but it is notable. Future versions will be better just by virtue of being lighter. I don’t use mine every day for productivity but I watch a lot of movies on it (especially 3D content) and it’s way better than watching on those old 3D TVs with the glasses. I use it mostly for recording spatial video for clients and we’re planning on buying more spatial cameras because of the success of that.
Gen 2 upgrades for me? Just keep making the battery life longer and keep making it lighter and slimmer, just like the evolution of iPhones and whatnot. Also, probably just a software update but a few of our team have one and it would be nice to share immersive environments/apps. Everyone is siloed in their own view currently.
Yeah… a tragic mishap is getting your balls stuck in your zipper because you had to pee so bad you tried to rip your pants off. This is a bit more than a “tragic mishap”. ಠ_ಠ
MySpace wasn’t a huge barrier unless you wanted to really customize and personalize your page. You could post dumb shit just by signing up for an account (which really only needed an email address) and then you had access to add friends and post to your wall/feed right away.
Not really. You needed to know how to use a web browser and that’s about it. Facebook really opened the floodgates allowing anyone to post whatever dumb shit was in there head for all to see.
I knew that the internet was fucked when MySpace came out and the barrier of entry was all but eliminated. When I first started using the internet, most of the info that was out there was from scientists, researchers, and people with an expertise in very specific subjects that had enough motivation to jump through the technical hoops of needing to join a BBS, host a website, or jump into IRC or another forum.
Once MySpace, and then Facebook, allowed anyone to post any dumb shit they wanted with an immediate way to spread that nonsense, it was all over. From there, corporate interests in how the internet could be used to control messaging and serve ads turned what little there was left into the same bullshit we’ve had since the advent of television. You can still find pockets of the old internet around but it’s mostly related to extremely niche interests.
Voyager. It shows actual usernames and not display names. You’re seeing my display name, not my username.
