That’s exciting - I’ll be keeping a close eye on this as it’s likely what will make me switch to Linux for gaming in the near future.

HORI has been around for a good whole, and they make what are arguably the best aftermarket Nintendo switch controllers.

The horror is in the fact that the system forces these kinds of choices on people. Any system that forces people to consider suicide to avoid bankrupting their loved ones due to medical cost is barbaric.

True, but Göteborg has its own areas to avoid. Hjällbo comes to mind…

Thanks! Sounds like decent progress hady been made in this area already. I’ll keep an eye on this project so that when 24H2 drops I’ve got a way to avoid turning my headset into e-waste.

That sounds pretty promising. I know the headset camera-based controller tracking will be a pain to implement, but at least there’s some hope for people that plonked down 600+ bucks for these devices. Some, like me, just a month ahead of the eol announcement…

I think this is still the most played game on my Switch. I need to stay far, far, away from this if my productivity is to survive.

I’m looking forward to this. Lego games always seem to deliver on capturing the spirit of the original work while adding some (often much needed) levity and charm. Having played HZD and having struggled to get through Forbiden West, I am looking forward to their take on the franchise.

High pay means nothing when the cost of living is even higher. Making 20 bucks an hour sounds great until you have to pay 3000 bucks in rent each month.

Wasn’t the original quote by Nigel Powers about the Dutch?

The video also includes this spin. Sounds like they tried to do an interesting retelling of her recruitment into the Carrington Institute, making her a double agent or something. I’m intrigued.

I’m happy to hear England’s argument is crumbling before their eyes. These statues belong in Greece.

“Fighting solves everything” - These guys are really out there thinking they can punch the genie of social progress back into the bottle. If this were a parody people would say it’s too ridiculous to be true.

It’s a shame some of the cool features such as the eye tracking and HDR are going to get lost in the transition. It might still be worth it to replace many of the soon-obsolete WMR headsets on the market, but only if Sony adjusts the price of the headset accordingly.

That’s an astute observation and you’re probably right. Doesn’t rule out someone f’ing up IRL but it makes the whole thing less believable for sure.

This looks like an average road in the Netherlands. The only thing that seems odd is the lack of a bike lane, but otherwise this is pretty mundane over there.

That’s so cute. Also funny to see how the grey color is dominant, but even the grey kittens get some of their pattern from the spotted patent.

I am still thankful our parents woke us up and put us in front of the TV to watch the live broadcast of that happening. That was a watershed moment in post-war politics.

I know. I’d just like the market to be more than a defacto monopoly with Meta selling 85% of all headsets. Especially given their privacy track record.

The HP Reverb G2 v2 was the highest resolution headset on the market for a while. And it comes with the same headset solution the Index uses.

Sure. It has some flaws, such as the hand tracking accuracy not being as good as some other headsets (some people felt the inside-out tracking wasn’t as accurate as traditional lighthouse based approaches, but it’s still plenty accurate for pretty much any game I’ve played with it) but at the price point this occupied when new there was really no better value for people that wanted a headset with as little setup as possible and absolutely fantastic fidelity and resolution.

It’s a true travesty that Microsoft can just axe the entire platform with no way for users to continue using their still perfectly functioning devices.
