It’s not enough to just support SteamVR. You also need device drivers, which nobody provides for their headsets on Linux except Valve for the Index and Vive. (Oh yeah, and Oculus had Linux drivers, for the DK1 and DK2, which stopped around when they got picked up by Facebook.)

On Linux your other choices are ALVR or whatever’s supported by OpenHMD (positional tracking with OpenHMD is either experimental or missing)

I like that the Android app is open source and available on F-Droid and that self hosting is an option, so I pay for premium so I don’t have to deal with the hassle of self hosting while I support the developer!

Mobile phones are a disturbance, scientific research shows. We need to protect students against this.

Wish the Guardian would have looked into this at all, researched a bit to see if the data backs this up. I couldn’t find much conclusive evidence of a significant impact. For example,

Doesn’t say anything about school-provided computers. But paper should not become obsolete, students need to practice digital and physical writing. Can’t always count on technology being there for you.

Wikipedia is not itself a source. It’s a way to get a summary of a topic and to get the actual sources

He’s not a politician and has shown no interest in being one, so why are people talking about this? So tired of seeing his face all over Lemmy/KBin

I said “mobile site”, as in the website, on a mobile browser.

Why the fuck would you do all your grocery shopping for a month all at once? Do you not live anywhere near civilization?
