To give you a real unbiased answer as someone who’s actually used the headset, the Quest 3 is the best VR headset you’ll get for the money. Pancake lenses are amazing, performance is really good, software has gotten ages better since launch. Meta throttles the chipset a lot, with QGO (an app) you can meet or be just under PC quality on most games, but the base headset is fine by itself.

As for games, there’s never been a better time to hope in. But I’ll be honest my Q3 is practically a beat saber machine at this point. I haven’t found another game to be as enticing. Pistol whip was meh, I couldn’t get into B&S or Asgards wrath, Metro Awaking isn’t my type of game. It’s really up to you to decide how valuable VR is.

All it takes is a couple investors and that all goes bye-bye.

Very few people have had their car purchasing decisions influenced by Musk, that’s evidenced by Tesla being the top 3 best selling EVs in the U.S. in Q2. Their sales will decrease as competition increases. You could make the argument the lack of competition is what maintains their sales.

This is why they’re leaning hard on FSD, it’s the only thing that could realistically make them stand out once the EV market matures. We’ll have to wait to see if V13 delivers (was supposed to release in October…) in order to gauge their future as a company.

They’d have to implement ads eventually anyway. Companies do have budgets, and the money to run Threads has to come from somewhere.

Make one :)

Are they stupid? In fairness, I don’t know how they’re making any money at all. I’ve never seen anyone interact with the discover feed and therefore see ads. There really isn’t a way to monetize Snapchat without killing it off.

I’m not even reading that article because, no. But I’m all for an award system here on lemmy. All money goes to the instance hoster and the user gets badges, maybe a highlighted name. The most gilded users get entered into a giveaway every month or so for something like a T-shirt.

That’s allows for the instances to sustain themselves and gives users more incentive to post, without stupid subscriptions and promoting content farming.

There’s no way they used Gemini and decided it’s better than GPT.

I asked Gemini: “Why can great apes eat raw meat but it’s not advised for humans?”. It said because they have a “stronger stomach acid”. I then asked “what stomach acid is stronger than HCL and which ones do apes use?”. And was met with the response: “Apes do not produce or utilize acids in the way humans do for chemical processes.”.

So I did some research and apes actually have almost neutral stomach acid and mainly rely on enzymes. Absolutely not trustworthy.

Yes, I tried the mastodon app probably about 4 years ago before I knew what federation was. I could not figure out how to sign up and ultimately gave up. There needs to be an app/website that explains it well and guides you through the process.

And honestly both bluesky and mastodon do a poor job if this.

Twitter allows porn now, no?

I swear this was supposed to release tomorrow

Wow, shocked! If asa releases on Xbox it will be horrid. I quit after 30 hours of dealing with crashes and performance issues. That’s just single player, official servers crash every 1-2 hours and roll back, deleting tames and wiping your inventory.

Yet some still defend wildcard as if they don’t have nearly a decade of experience working on this game. It’s obvious upper management is the issue , but I’m not supporting this crap again.

It’s as much on the customers as it is on the workers. Why continue supporting companies that don’t pay livable wages?

Lots of jobs will pay for a degree.

Should a self-driving car face more rigorous tests than actual human drivers? Honest question.

Unfortunately it isn’t what I wanted out of this game.

Loading screen to land on a planet, loading screen to leave my spaceship, no seamless entry into caves or buildings. Planets and space having boundaries. Can’t use my spaceship to traverse.

Glad people enjoy it, but I was looking for something more akin to NMS or Star Citizen.

Yes that’s true.

Are you intentionally making bad faith arguments?

No, lets keep this civil my guy.

She is a social media manager, onlyfans is social media regardless of the content that is usually posted. As for the reason I brought up Facebook moderation is, what do you think is usually posted there? Minion memes? Photos from trips? Well those moderators are often subjected to beheadings, rape, and other very graphic content. Do you think that was explicitly stated when they got hired?

Of course, Facebook isn’t exactly the premier ‘good place to work’, but this is common throughout any industry that takes submissions for the populous. And I am not making any arguments whatsoever on whether or not she should actually have to see “comments from people talking about how they wanted to fuck me and my co workers.”.

She is not publicly facing on OnlyFans she manages the account. So her being a woman has absolutely nothing to do with your last sentence. Of course I won’t debate your personal opinion, but she isn’t being forced. It’s a job within her job description.
