Got an og Vive (699.99 cdn at the time came with headset, controllers, and base stations), playing the hell out of that headset just over a year in steam VR playtime at 2 - 4 hrs a day. I have played Half-Life:VR mod (due to the age of the actual game it is my worst port experience) Half-Life 2: VR mod, Half-Life 2 ep 1 and 2 in VR (absolutely amazing) Raft:VR mod (a few bugs and a few abilities missing from flat, but overall flawless) The Forest:VR mod(excellent), and let’s not forget Valheim:VR mod.

Quest garden can be limiting but you can plug your quest (air link, ?whatever? desktop, link cable) and pretty much play anything on steam, personally have 90+ titles under my VR library (no beat saber). You can check yt for people playing these flat2vr games

Thought I’d missed something, TY. Just give it time and they will integrate it if enough of us keep removing it

Copilot as well? I thought it was that recall thing that was part of explorer

With only 20 of 90 VR games available I’d say I was already fucked over and I am nowhere near the end… Thank you for the suggestions on how to over come the issues I have so far

I have faith steam will continue to improve proton to the point of “it just works”. As well, any new purchases of hardware will be Linux ready.

I must say Linux HAS gotten more user friendly over the last 20/30 years, and the GUIs have gotten more stable. My first Linux distro was red hat enterprise Linux, and then I hopped around to fedora, then mandrake and mandriva, a buddy suggested slack at one point, then I found Ubuntu, and now Kubuntu, I prefer the gnome environment but kde plasma seems to work better. Wayland is also long over due.

I will keep testing and one day I will be joyous. Linux is so close, just a few more years™.

I uninstalled copilot after an update installed it, on win 10

I can tell you my issues, so far.

Logitech G13 left hand kb - no drivers, Steam VR library 20 some of 90 some games come up in steam, Microsoft intellipoint trackball, only left, right, and wheel work but cannot program the other 2 buttons, no BlueStacks - simple to use phone emulator.

Haven’t gotten any further as if VR library is not available there is no point getting rid of windows, and I really want to get rid of windows. I just don’t have the drive I used to, to fix, look up hints, tinker with my os and reinstall new ones. It has to just work. I have Kubuntu installed on a 4tb sata ssd, rtx 4070ti super, Ryzen 7 3800, 32gb ram. In the last month steam VR made some strides as setting up was as seamless as windows, but as I stated I am missing 2/3 of my VR library

I have a microsoft trackball, black body red ball thumb driven, was $35 us/$99 cdn and I bought the first of 2 in 2000 it has not been supported for a long time. I saved the drivers to a usb and am still using the combined trackball today. The 1st tracball had 1 board die in it, bought the second the other board died in that one so I combined the 2 working boards and it still goes strong.

Still havent turned mine on, don’t want no surprises after a long day at work

Hardware breaks into a parody of whatever you are doing

Me - laughing and vibing

That looks like it, ty

Didn’t someone attempt to increase the storage of CDs by a similar multi layer tactic, tho not as dense, using different colour lasers to etch each layer? iirc it was just before or just as dvds came out

Babylon 5 enters the chat

Do they just enjoy wasting people’s disk space or something?

Short answer, yes

Mine doesn’t meet 1 req for win 11, I refuse to go into the bios and turn it on

Oh, the memories… but we were paying a slight copyright fee on every blank disk and tape purchased in those days, regardless of use.

I think I’ll try using OBS to capture a video tonight, granted its quality will be tied to the output but it requires no additional hardware. Then edit in DaVinci to get rid of the obvious mistakes i’ll make. I only have a 4070 ti super tho

I remember when I got my forst 120gb drive. I happily installed it on my win 2k and… bios didn’t like it, OS didn’t like it and read its capacity wrong. I forget if I used windows or linux but after I cut the drive into 2x60gb it worked great

That was my thought, or gather the names of these mass layoff companies and do not buy their next title or 2. Again, the devs are already paid
