Oh it works great for me. In fact a lot better than the Rift did with its dedicated trackers.

It's also handy to just pop it on and not have to set it up. I often bring it to the office and I've given a demo for friends, it's much harder with lighthouses.

And the cost of them is just insane. If they were 100 bucks for a couple it's fine.

Yeah that pattern is called "Pentile" or RGBG. Very annoying indeed on screens where you look right up to the pixels. And it reduces the number of subpixels by 1/3 so the resolution really suffers.

The PSVR1 had a real RGB panel but sadly the PSVR2 moved to pentile.

  • Inside-out tracking so you don't need expensive lighthouses
  • Wireless connection

Yep this is one of the reasons I kept deleting my account even before the whole spez drama.

Too bad they don't do OpenPGP like Yubikeys do. I still need that even more (much more!) than Fido2. Sites are so slow adopting Fido2.

I don't use it for email but I use it for SSH and my password manager ("pass"). And yes I know SSH can use Fido2 natively as well but there's many embedded SSH daemons that don't support that yet.

Luckily Yubico is still around but I'm betting on them going down the drain (subscription models etc) soon because they were taken over by a venture capital firm :(

Even all the telemetry?

I really hate dealing with group policies (and I work in enterprise endpoint management, I prefer more modern management). AD/Group policies can only be updated on site or VPN, and they're only really instructions for registry settings anyway.

But I'll try that out. I don't have a windows server though, nor do I want one. But I guess I could use gpedit.

I have LTSC 2021 officially (MSDN) and I have to say I'm not very impressed. You still can't turn off the telemetry crap. There is still a windows store. There's a bit less bundled scamware but beside that it's a bit overrated IMO.

Yeah that slogan really captured very well the intentions at the world economic forum.

I know it's not what they officially stated but it really captured (they since walked it back and said it only was meant to "describe emerging trends") the intentions of what happens when they all come to Davos and divide the world between them.

But I don't believe "as a service" models are more sustainable. They will just enable more rent-seeking behaviour meaning we will get even less for our money. The incentive to deliver will be even lower as they will get paid anyhow.

I didn't think it was super creepy but I thought the voice was so overly enthusiastic and overacted and soooo sugary. bleh.

This won't work for me unless that can be customised and toned down a lot.

The audio from the AI also seemed to cut out a lot during the demo. So it does appear like no shenanigans to me.

Wow... TIL there are actually people that believe North Korea is an amazing country.

It depends on your prompt/context size too. The more you have the more memory you need. Try to check the memory usage of your GPU with GPU-Z with different models and scenarios.
