Sure does, and I hate it. If they add more ads, I'm going to cancel nitro and move elsewhere.

No. I don't like short form video content. My attention span is longer. I retain information. I want explanations and datapoints, not silly memes or reactions.

Also I don't want more apps on my phone, I don't want more companies mining my life for data. I don't want more privacy scandals. And I don't want any more Chinese government involvement in my north-american life.

8GB of RAM wasn't enough for me to use in either person or professional contexts in 2006. My work laptop has 16GB and I'm constantly running low on RAM when I'm working with spreadsheets and relatively simple Photoshop projects. I'm not talking about games or compiling code either.

I would not be looking at systems with fewer than 16GB of RAM for any user for any reason in 2024. And for myself I would not be buying any systems with fewer than 32GB of RAM.

(My personal desktop has 64GB and so far that's been sufficient but I have nearly capped it out when running substance painter, blender, unity, etc.)

So it really all comes down to the software you use. But my advice is to consider 16GB the absolute minimum.

Hah okay yeah I remember that thread now. That was... 12 years ago?? Time flies.

I'm gonna need an elaboration. What?

I reported an extensive list of bugs for this release. I can't handle teleport movement, or snap turning, so maybe some of the bugs related to me disabling both of those. I posted them in my review of the game too.

Feels very under baked to me.

I noticed this a couple days ago. It makes me so happy. I specifically requested this about 1 months after the Quest Pro launched (so November '22, a year ago) on the steamVR feature request subforum. And then again when the Quest 3 came out. I pointed out that Meta had meshes within the Oculus software that could likely be used, depending on licensing.

It takes tremendous bravery. but also, support from family and friends. it's learning a whole new set of performative skills, but speedrunning it.

A close friend of mine just had her mom do her nails before a weekend long date with her (long distance) boyfriend. I thought that was such a sweet and subtle way to show support for her. Mind you, the couple I'm talking about are in their late 30s.
