the body at times is such a rudimentary way of regulating health, as increasing your body temperature to destroy the infection is like the emergency button

if you live in the bay area, youd understand who works in tech, and whose a tech bro, very easily.

thats why investments are inportant for long term. the problem we face as a society is that the majority of people cant afford to make these investments, as they are living day to day with their paychecks.

linux has 2 really good target audiences people using it as a near chrome book like experience, and ultra advanced users who want fine control of the system.

its everyone else in the middle that needs to play how much do i have to tweak in order to do what I want.

uses the Arm A76 cores, ao the smartphone SOC to compare it to would be ones using the Snapdragon 855 (e.g Samsung S10) but neuter its multicore perf becauae mobile uses both big and little cores.

tldr will run some games, but not all. still struggle street

which is the condition on whether a user wants to make it cheap, else you have to go theough the trouble of sideloading the requied stuff to turn the device into a mixedvr/piracy headset by cutting off the meta related services.

else the "cheap" option would be to go use older windows mixed VR headsets, or cheaper chinese options(e.g Pico Vr headsets), both having their own cost of using it, very similar to what you sign into for users who buy a phone, or a console.

they seperated facebook and made it specific to a occulus (meta) account. however at some point of having a meta account, there are methods of outright stripping most of the meta connectivity after granting yourself developer mode and sideloading changes.

its a standalone device that functionally is like buying a phone with a Snapdragon 865(for older quest 2 models). relative to what you're paying for. It's actually not that expensive in the grand scheme of other gaming devices, as its on par/cheaper than basiaclly all other mainstream gaming devices, and on the low end in terms of smartphone pricing.

Part of the reason why when people were saying they wanted competition to unseat x86, I didn't want it to be ARM based, because I knew 100% that ARM would jump in and do some shit to rake in more profit and negate all the potential cost savings to the consumer. As long as theres a single(or in the case of x86, essentially (but technically not) duopoly) that controls all the options for one of the options, then it's not a good form of competition.

its 2024, were waiting for Ai powered Lucy Liu bot

theyre hard to find because AMD sunset production of them. (despite the fact the 5700x3d and 5800x3d is functionality the same chip)

to be fair, the ally x is a revision of the same product. same chip. making some functional changes like that is similar to saying the steam deck oled is a new generation of devices.
