lmao i dont need critics in my thinking. radical left wing media already critizes us enough.

/s

Nah, regarding to your last paragraph: I dont think it will be that easy. Atleast officially.

These arent just .APKs like on Android. Like there is the whole VR/XR part which come with their own SDKs, runtimes and so on. While there are a few (mostly opensource) apps floating around which support multiple plattforms at the same tim like Quests, Picos, Play for Dream etc most of the Quest .apks are targeting very specifically the Quest platform and its hardware/softwarestack.

I also wouldnt call them “leaks”. These are just good old pira… game preservations. Apart from a few games with extra drm measures pretty much every paid Quest game got… preserved.

There is an unofficial porting tool floating around to get Quest exclusives running on eg Pico headsets. Heres a website which tracks the working ones btw: https://ppdata.uk/?tab=OVR+Ports&sort=Updates&limit=20&page=1

But i know a … friend who told me that some of these needed some very heavy lifting on top of the already heavy lifting the dev of the porting tool did to get running.

Would be a rather stupid move of Valve if they provided all the means to just pirate Quest games on the Frame. They want to make it as easy for devs to port their games to the Frame. But thats it.

But yeah, the seafaring community will probably find ways to port the quest games unofficially rather fast since the ground work is already done.

amazing writing. x11 will be dropped 2027 but dont worry yet because until then 2026 is happening. thanks, didnt expect that!

I have a LG CX and a AMD 6900XT. I just settled on some random noname adapter cable since i never could find reliable enough information on the net regarding VRR(irc you need atleast a rx7000 series amd card for that). Everything works on my setup except VRR. Atleast on the CX remote you can press the green button seven times to get an overlay that shows if 10bit, vrr, hdr, chroma subsampling, etc is in place. Helped me a lot when i tried to dial in everything.
Like 4k120 HDR VRR is perfectly possible with hdmi 2.0 bandwith. It will just be subsampled down to horrible 4:2:0…

fuck that guy.

the factchecking is horrible on that channel. there are so many videos with so many mistakes, misleading conclusions, important left out things, etc.

Fuck him.

Aaaaw, what a nice little feel good story for our boy pat who is now working on and promoting weird ass “christian” AI.

Nah, the last time i used insta was when it was mostly known for its infamous lomography filters. While this edit is intentionally horrible it proofs a point though. A subtle shift in the whitepoint to the warmer side and a few clicks to reduce the slight green tint in the potatoes would help wonders. Almost looks like flourescent light or photographed with a flash light. Either case wouldnt be ideal.

Anyway, i’m well aware of how hard it is to take good pics of food. I wouldnt have made that rather blunt and maybe hurtful comment if it was only about the presentation. Its mostly just a culture shock thing, i guess.

But enough of me and my “feelings”. If i ever comment or post again i will provide pics/recipes.

Same. Blocked .ml, blocked so many sublemmies, blocked certain topics and names and just a few users. With that its a pretty sweet experience. But when i visit logged out for one reason or another it gets ugly really fast.

Sometimes i get FOMO because a lot of .ml users post in a topic which i just cant see. But i made the mistake to unblock .ml twice and regretted it just in a few hours.

Most emulators for android work perfectly atleast if you have a regular bluetooth controller. On my Pico i cant map the motion controllers in android apps but the Xbox controller connects and works just fine.

good resource: https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Emulators_on_Android

Theres also WinlatorXR for Windwos games. But its just too much of a hassle to setup everything for my taste. But it does work. I think just recently the fork Winlatorxr-Cmod got released which can be beneficial in certain aspects. But idk the XR2 Gen1 in my Pico4 is too slow either way for the interesting games to emulate.

A bit Pico centric but most stuff should be easily applicable on the quests with a few adjustments too.

I’m mostly using Ironfox and Fennec to have two seperate Firefox based browsers. One for watching videos while i browse on the other. Tubular for Youtube is also pretty good since the youtube webpage is soo fucking heavy that the fan gets annoyingly loud.

Duckstation with retroachievements for PS1 emulation is my jam when it comes to emulation. PPSSPP is also pretty sweet but it just doesnt scratch my itch like PS1 games do. idk

Never went back to reddit. But i get it. My current blocklist on lemmy is longer than it ever was after 10 years of reddit. The relative amount of weird stuff on here is too damn high for a normie.

That poster a few weeks ago who said hes gonna block this community lives rentfree in my head. Because i get him. Nearly everytime i see a picture of this community posted in my feed it just absolutly disgusts me. Holy moly. It dont even know why? Its not high cuisine, but who cares? I’m sure its perfectly fine tasting self cooked food.
But something about it just breaks me.

Anyway. Keep it up. This is a nice little community and i could just post my own stuff if really cared. Feel free to delete this comment. But damn, i couldnt stay silent or just ignore it any longer. My poor european tastes are struggling to keep it together with these meals.

Game Sack tested the 3rd gen Everdrive and everything worked when he downgraded the firmware. 1st gen Everdrive didnt work though.

me after a whole bag of cheetos.

and the whole website is pressed against the left side which would be alright if we would still use 19" 4:3 CRTs at max.

Had my money on a 2027 release for the PC after the first trailer dropped in late 2023. Looks like i wasnt pessimistic enough even though i accounted for a console exclusive year and a rather big delay. Maybe by 2028 the AI bubble will have popped and GPUs are affordable again.

Most of the responses of the ministers(?) covered in the article seem to be pretty solid.

But then:

Responding to the arguments, the government’s representative, minister for sport, tourism, civil society and youth, Stephanie Peacock MP, acknowledged consumer sentiment behind Stop Killing Games, but suggested there were no plans to amend UK law around the issue.

“The Government recognises the strength of feeling behind the campaign that led to the debate,” she said. “The petition attracted nearly 190,000 signatures. Similar campaigns, including a European Citizens’ Initiative, reached over a million signatures. There has been significant interest across the world.”

She continued: “At the same time, the Government also recognises the concerns from the video gaming industry about some of the campaign’s asks. Online video games are often dynamic, interactive services—not static products—and maintaining online services requires substantial investment over years or even decades.”

Peacock claimed that because modern video games were complex to develop and maintain, implementing plans for games after support had ended could be “extremely challenging” for companies and risk creating “harmful unintended consequences” for players.

Handing online servers over to consumers could carry commercial or legal risks, she said, in addition to safety concerns due to the removal of official company moderation.

On the subject of ownership, Peacock claimed that video games being licensed to consumers, rather than sold, was not a new phenomenon, and that “in the 1980s, tearing the wrapping on a box to a games cartridge was the way that gamers agreed to licensing terms.”

“Licensing video games is not, as some have suggested, a new and unfair business practice,” she claimed.

Yeah, full on corpo spin. Fuck her.

It already rubbed me the wrong way how soon they sunsetted support for GCN cards. Especially since they introduced Vega 8(?) products in APUs till 2021 or something like that? Which means it should atleast still get support for another 2 years from here on now. Instead support ended years ago.

But at the time i could kinda see how they wanted to focus on RDNA. Still shitty but there was atleast some resemblence of a technical reason there. But now trying to stop support for RDNA because of the focus on RDNA is just fucking laughable.

Sweet. I didnt want to throw any shade towards the developer btw. Just in case.

Ugh, not available in my country because of stupid laws. My steam account is old enough to vote and drink liquor. But god forbid i could see the shop page of a game which wasnt rated properly.
