The equivalent of someone who makes minimum wage paying a $3 fine.

Except he won’t pay it, he’ll just borrow against his net worth.

They’ll keep it around for political prosecutions.

Can you order an RV a motor coach from Temu?

Buy VPN stocks.

So if there’s a big zero-day WordPress won’t have dev resources to patch it quickly.

This may or may not be the same as it ever was.

I’m still looking for a case that can hold a Pi and a 3.5” drive that I can set up at someone else’s house.

Yeah but you’ll want full gold plating and nitrogen-infused insulation for the best picture.

Not even going out of business, just them discontinuing the product.

Later in the development of aviation they would mount the engines on the wings and make passageways in them so engines could be serviced in flight.

I’ve built things like this.

I’m not disputing that VR is cool. I’ve tried it and it’s fun to walk with dinosaurs and visit the space station and sculpt in 3D. I’m saying it’s not useful. For a game console it’s great but it’s not a computing platform.

If you think “The technology isn’t ready yet” is shitting on it then you need a thicker skin

And saying “Just go back to college, get a masters in software engineering, and build the useful app yourself” is a perfect example of why it’s not ready yet.

I agree that using it as an unlimited display would be a great application. The only problem is that the device itself is too heavy for long-term usage, which goes back to the technology not being ready yet.

Maybe if all that you put on your face was a screen, and the rendering and power were offloaded to a desktop it could be made light enough to wear for hours at a time.

ETA: I haven’t had trouble with external monitors on Mac, and I’ve been running dual screens since 2002 when I grabbed an old 20" CRT from the garbage outside my dorm.

There’s the butthurt VR bro who shows up every time I point out the tech for VR isn’t ready yet. There’s always one of you.

And it’s obvious you didn’t read my whole comment because I said that it’s got games. But that just means it’s a game console. What I want is an application that does something useful and productive.

For example, these VR devices have the software and hardware to map 3D spaces. How about an app that lets me map my house and then see what it would be like to knock out a wall or add a window or something? Heck, realtors could use it to do virtual walk throughs of homes.

As long as people admit that the good isn’t perfect and that they’re gonna work to make it more perfect I don’t mind.

But Democrats passed the ACA and then decided that’s the best we could possibly do, and that anyone who wants more is somehow being more unreasonable than our current health care system.

It’s an ugly dud just like every VR headset because the technology for displays, processing, and batteries make them look like gigantic, heavy ski goggles.

Plus there’s no applications. Games are cool, socializing is cool (I guess), and porn is porn, but what can I do with it? It’s like releasing the first Macintosh without MacWrite or MacPaint.

convoluted set of settings

1. Attempt to open the app
2. Go to Privacy & Security Settings and give it permission
3. Open the app

Note that this is only with unsigned apps. You can download other apps and run them just fine as long as they’re signed.

Much confuse. Such convolute. Wow.

What if I told you the idea of a passport was invented about 600 years ago and nobody needed permission to travel before that

I’ve got an old Mac and use a cloud gaming PC to play games. It’s like $50 a month and works great when you’re near the data center.

Plus my laptop doesn’t get really hot while playing games and the battery lasts a lot longer. All while getting 4k 60fps gaming with ray tracing.
