Re:Devs are missing the point of VR
on Monday October 10, 2022 @08:51PM (#33158192)
That NYTimes article recently did the same thing. Anyone that is serious about understanding the state of VR, but has no experience with VRChat is a huge red flag to me. You don't have to like the culture on VRC(I don't love it), but it is where most of the content and players are. In a way it could a good sign that VR is becoming more accessible, but it's still a bit annoying.

This is something I have been think about for the past 10 year as well. If we can get enough cheap power production, incinerating toilets seem interesting. And the growth satellite internet is a big win for this area.

I have lived on a street with a street car for the past 3 years and I disagree with your perspective. I live in a different city, so variables are probably very different in a lot of ways. I find large trucks and motorcycles as the largest disturbances in my daily life (I work from home mostly). The train absolutely makes noise and shakes the house, but it's predictable. I no longer set alarms and I can use it to run my errands. And it is way better for the air around me than cars.
Most of the US lives in a mono-culture for transportation and cars are pretty expensive.

Re:Dear Spotify, can we just get a table of songs?

Been using spotify since they launched a beta in the US (11 years ago?), but them constantly pushing services that are not music on their platform, and populating their recommended playlists cheaper-per-play songs, I am actively looking to move.

Re:Engineering a modern-day typewriter in which less is more

This is somewhat tangential.
My brother had brain surgery at a young age, and it severely effected his communication negatively. He had ten years of speech therapy, and through all of that he was writing things in word processors (maybe 2 hours every few days). If it was directed at you he would print it out and post it somewhere you would see it.
He even wrote "Rules for Chipmunks", and posted it at chipmunk eye level; when we started to have chipmunks coming into the house one year.

After learning that someone can get your cardiograph with a laser from 100 ft away, I believe the adversarial fight with privacy won't help us nearly as much as fighting for legislation.
Although I do think, as an american, we should rework the second amendment to include things like encryption. And change the 3rd amendment to privacy protection. I'm a little more worried about the people in my devices, than I am housing enemy soldiers at the moment.

I already do a little work in vr. I only work on one 1080 monitor in an Index. It's great for isolating yourself from distraction, but we have a ways to go for sure when it comes to UX. Pixel density, might be starting to get there, but it's still a compromise. I would guess it get there in the next few years with the big push at work from home, and all those Zuck-bucks funding development in portable VR.
