An argument I frequently make about using an ad blocker is that I’d be more comfortable with ads if they weren’t so thirsty for personal information. I still stand by that, and I’m not completely convinced this satisfies that concern. Personal data is still getting slurped up, but now we have the privilege of trusting it’s completely anonymized.

Hey I found someone else with a mini! (Sorry, can’t talk, battery’s almost dead.)

I overcame one of my hardest by doing more for myself, by myself, than I would have with her around. I gave up a lot to be with her, and after the break up, I decided to embrace the circumstances and strive for success despite her. I did it to prove that my life would have ended up worse with her than it turned out to be without her.

With a mere 100 days left on my PS+ Extra subscription, an upgrade to Premium tier for the remaining time was just $5. That netted me both Saints & Sinners games for PSVR2 as well as a few others, including a 1 hour free trial of Demeo, which I fully intend to take advantage of.

Absolutely. Imagine how cool summons and area magics would be when they light up your room.

I never got into fidget spinners, but having parallax on my iPhone’s Home Screen probably had a similar effect for me. I’d just play with it every once in a while and enjoyed it. I’ve always been mindful of battery drain, but I consciously made an exception for parallax.

FF Tactics is a VR/XR dream port of mine. I’d love to see those battle arenas set up on my coffee table, with the ability to actually move the pieces around like chess.

I’m bookmarking this post because I’ll regret it later if I don’t…

So apparently parallax is quietly coming back? I’ve decided that’s now the thing I’m most excited for.

Why are they called gaming laptops when they don’t play the games themselves?

That’s too bad.

Had a cheeky peek at your comment history and it sure seems like you’re at war with reality, friend. You do you, but that fight is never going to end.

I’m not really a fan of Facebook, but I’m kind of wanting a Quest 3 because the cost of the AVP and other headsets just reinforce how much of a value it must be. Maybe it’s just early days, but the AVP just doesn’t do enough of what I want from a headset at even half its price point.

I do want to see what an AV (non pro) will bring to the table, but I think Meta is in a better position to impress with their next Quest headset now that apple has laid their cards on the table. They could sell a quest 4 at twice the price of a quest 3, add in whatever new technologies that might afford, and still be insanely more affordable than an AVP.

I’ve been in the Apple ecosystem for pretty much most of my life, and I’m all for what the AVP is bringing to the table. However, one VR enthusiast Youtuber I watched recently (Thrillseeker) put down the most compelling argument against the AVP I’ve seen thus far. The AVP does well what all the other headsets don’t, but the AVP also kind of sucks at what other headsets have learned to do well. At the price of the AVP, not only could you buy a Quest 3, but you’d have enough leftover to just build an entire VR Gaming rig to back it up. Then you’d have a setup exponentially more capable than what the AVP is offering.

Wish the DNC had told themselves the same before insisting which bed we lay in for another four years.

What is the population percentage of boomers, around 40%, per chance?

If Jon’s audience somehow got swayed into voting FOR Trump over some criticisms on Biden, they were never listening in the first place.

I think I would still stick to the current form factor. Repairability and comfort are of greater concern to me at this stage in my life than pocketability.

Oh I I have no idea if overcast will improve your battery life, I just like it. I think the UI is intuitive and the smart speed feature is amazing for talk shows.
