It'd be cool if all work came with royalties instead of just wages. Like what if the code I wrote a decade ago was still bringing in a few bucks here and there :P
@bazylevnik0 Ehh, in my experience the cardboard stuff was very lackluster. It's the cheapest option but also the worst for VR, and given a Pico 4 can go for like 500 bucks it's pretty comparable to the cost of a plane ticket but unlike a plane is a one time cost for attendees and unlike cardboard has some solid baseline VR functionality.
It's cheaper and maybe more accessible to host a conference in #VR and get everyone to buy headsets rather than airplane tickets to another country.
Manufacturers should have some sort of out of the box config you could bulk order and send out to people
@cmdr_nova Also most AP instances don't pull posts from other instances and just wait for data to be pushed to them. Even if botsinspace deletes their local copy of data anyone that was interested in it would still have a copy on their instance.
This week is more writing than code and is brought to you by the "Cool Runnings" themed energy drink I bought at the Chinese grocery store by my house. That place has all the Good Stuff™️

Like when he says he's "skeptical of taxes" one way to think about that is if he--and only he--had paid capital gains tax at the normal rate of 20% on the money he made last year, you could cut every taxpayer in America's tax bill by $100
I'm genuinely so excited to not have to worry about RAM all the time. It's like a weight lifted off my chest.
@skryking Kinda? When I'm out and about I usually use my Viture Pro XR as a head mounted display. It doesn't really do XR/AR sadly, it's pretty much just a monitor. One hell of a monitor though!
@tychi That last bit is super cool. Have you looked into customizing the keyboad bindigs for the gamepad? I found the defaults lacking and ended up fixing some bugs in this python script I found which lets you remap them.
@benbrown A standard way for RSS feeds to advertise urls you can subscribe (fiscally) on with standard UIs in readers to pay for subscriptions could have been a cool future to live in.
@tychi I never use it for gaming BTW. Just development and the odd video watching. 😅
@tychi I did Chimera Os for a bit but got fed up with it being made for gaming rather than dev. Currently running a barebones EndevourOS with a niri-based wayland setup I've been slowly putting together. I'm loving it! It's really just VSCode / Element / Thunderbird that are eating an unreasonable amount of RAM compared to everything else on my system 😅
I caved and got the beefier GPD Win 4 with 32GB of RAM so I can stop suffering from OOM errors killing applications several times a day. TT_TT
LOL at first it couldn't get past the LUKS decryption after rebooting but it might just be the zen kernel that's being weird
Having a relaxing day so far so gonna play the "update my system packages" roulette and see if it gets worse :P
Yeah, I silence notifications by killing Mako with systemctl 😎👍

why name a microchip some boring nerd shit like 6502 or 8086 when you could call it Socrates' Daimonion, The Whisperer in Darkness, Bit Muncher, or The Sand In Here Does Math

"Not Invented Here syndrome"? Oh, yeah. I'm familiar with that. I call it something different, though.
