What a time to be alive…

Bigscreen Beyond

Yeah, it does look pretty nice, but no Linux support, especially at this price, makes it a no-go for me. :(

edit: well, shit, apparently it doesn’t do any proprietary bullshit and uses generic protocols, and reportedly works fine on Linux.
Might have to consider it after all…

It’s great, especially the controllers - there’s nothing else like it.
And, well, it’s the only headset making any claims about Linux compatibility, which is also a big thing for me.

But your concern is the exact reason I’m not sure I can recommend it.

Of course, Valve works on Valve Time, so the chances Deckard will release next month are basically the same as it releasing anytime in the next decade.

When it originally launched, I feared it would go the same way as Valve’s previous inventions in the VR

What the hell is she talking about?

Index still gets regular updates and it still doesn’t really have any competition at its price point (Quest with its ridiculous account requirements doesn’t count).

Just because Index was not a massive success due to its significantly higher cost doesn’t mean it’s a failure, and it’s far from abandoned.

I’m sure that’s not gonna get misused. /s

I’m not a fan of LLMs, but an app has absolutely no business deciding what input method I use.

This feels too similar to completely idiotic practice of blocking the copy-paste of credentials and disallowing password managers in certain apps/websites.
