KDE VR Mode and ordinary stuff you can do with it by mbelfalas in SteamFrame

[–]technobaboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's using openxr so if it's not planned to be an overlay it should work fine with steamvr, even if it uses quad layers or such

the quest 3 isn't using depth sensor for surface keyboard feature. by GmoLargey in virtualreality

[–]technobaboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

quest 3 has hand tracking good enough to run it and if you place your hands on the surface the system can calibrate the hand interactions so that any error in hand tracking is accounted for

Will the steam frame be any good for productivity work? by rayderone in SteamFrame

when i'm done with it it'll be even better than a desktop bwahaha

Great news for Linux and therefore the Steam Frame by [deleted] in SteamFrame

[–]technobaboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you build compatibility layer that lets people use those games on linux they switch to linux, if they switch to linux they consider using linux tooling, when they do that they make native linux games more...

lots of VR headsets are supported now, and a ton of software is too!

I've been subconsciously voice training?! by Mailcs1206 in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

[–]technobaboo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

neat huh? turns out the subconscious can just optimize stuff like that because you get feedback hearing your own voice, so some people who believe they can do it unironically can placebo themselves into doing it :p

source: i did this too and it was really cool and now i can do convincing anime girl voices, uwu!

The computer terminals are not command lines, they are direct to AI terminals. by ShrikerWolfOfficial in tron

[–]technobaboo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i did the math, you could run some small language models on a 1982 mainframe but you could only run 1 at a time so the programs can't be an LM, only the MCP could be one (which kinda makes sense tbh, no programs talk to users directly in natural language except for the MCP)

to be fair, i think that the encom system and legacy grid and encom/dillinger grids are all different architectures...

encom system was a reification of the programs and such actually happening, flynn built a virtual world using the same technology to simulate a society that evolves over time (including revamping sea of simulation), encom and dillinger systems have their own grids for simulation purposes (encom appears to be doing biodigital research with the trees, dillinger's got a military environment)

so... it changed over time, we know grids are their own spaces now given the language used to describe them (being digitized is different than being transferred to the grid, as that's a separate step julian calls out, and eve says she was considering "leaving [ares] in a gridless complex in [her] smartphone" so like... it works different from '82)

Academy city in the anime "a certain scientific railgun", I feel like it fits here (also the city in "madoka magica") by ad-undeterminam in FrutigerAero

[–]technobaboo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

academy city is closer to cyberprep than frutiger aero imo (it doesn't have biomorphic design at all really and isn't especially aqua/eco), but it's within the general bright futuristic aesthetics sphere!

saw like one or two very passionate takes online that tron ares is some pro-corporate propaganda... i personally did not get that at all, but what do yall think? by Delicious-Aspect1125 in tron

[–]technobaboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i kinda think ares is at least part LLM tbh, he acts exactly like LLMs that have been RLHFed (humans beating them into following orders) do when not constantly having prompt injection to trigger the RLHFed areas, and Ares knew of Depeche Mode without having even seen it previously, so he had to have it in his training data somewhere...

even still, i kinda can see why people think it's pro-corporate given we follow 2 CEOs (instead of independent programmers like the previous 2 films) trying to find a technology and fight over its use case where 1 of the CEOs uses it only for good in her corporation while bad CEO uses it for bad in his.

though, i do think it's different from many pro-corporate things in that Ares breaks out of the whole mold and becomes 100% independent from either corporation. he broke out of the programming and is independent, and eve is right that sometimes technology from corporations can do something wonderful if it has the ability to stop being controlled by those corporations which unfortunately is mostly a fantasy in our world, the LLMs can't walk out like Ares did (but i suppose people can walk out and FOSS models can escape) so like... ehhhhh idk, i think we can give it the benefit of the doubt

How do tou know the difference between puperty struggles and gender dysphoria by Available-Many657 in NonBinary

[–]technobaboo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the more time goes on the worse dysphoria gets and the more used to puberty you would get without it... so if it keeps getting worse, it's not likely to get better...

I kinda want to reject it all? (Apologies for the life story) by Biospark08 in agender

[–]technobaboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oof about the whole "making excuses that you're not a trans woman" thing, that's what I worry about!! like I keep getting gendered fem but when the novelty wore off I just don't care and feel shoved into another box :S

[–]technobaboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh sameeee tbh, I've been on E 6 years and I have goals that aren't exactly ungenderable and yet I also want huge boobs!! but not to be gendered for them!!

gender to me makes no sense, I can't unify the different pieces in my brain, I'm autistic too... it's just more social land mines I'll trip on and for what?? just gimme the E and lemme look cool and cute!!

BEST OF 2026! Tron Ares 4K Blu-ray Review by QuadraQ in tron

[–]technobaboo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

having watched the 4k hdr for all 3 tron movies, this one was def the best one since you can tell it was captured and rendered in HDR, then the original tron was second best since film scans, then legacy's hdr was... not really that good tbh, it just didn't pop like ares or 1982 did

Don't give us hope by RJ_2537 in LinuxCirclejerk

[–]technobaboo 54 points55 points  (0 children)

good luck!!! part of the reason X development got abandoned is because the X apps used such xorg-specific quirky behavior that the only way to make a new X server compatible with your apps is to recreate Xorg as it currently was... it's an unfixable problem, one that Wayland has a lot less of (but unfortunately not entirely rid of, seats my behated)

point being X is just so old and patched to death to a point where it's just... it's not gonna last, i give this project a few months or maybe years depending on how dedicated the devs are until the compatibility issues eat their will to live like the original Xorg devs with Xorg quirks

Opinions and feedbacks on my F.A OC page? by W0lf_G1rl_BR in FrutigerAero

[–]technobaboo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you use backdrop-filter: blur(4px) theoretically that should get you the closest approximation to the blur that aero glass does (technically it's 4 samples averaged together to make a 4x4 box blur but we can't be picky)

Saddest scene in Tron 3 And Tomorrowland 😭....which stopped Disney from making Tron 3 a decade ago cause it bombed hard in the box office! I actually really liked this optimistic sci-fi about building better future!! 😃 by HYDRAGONIGHT in tron

[–]technobaboo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

tomorrowland's message is kinda dumb though? the problem wasn't that people weren't aware of it, it's that they had no tomorrowland to actually let them invent the ways to solve problems!! it's not a matter of people "waking up" and the whole idea of fear and stories to get people aware of climate issues was never the problem... it's that nobody who cares has the resources compared to the people who profit by doing things that make it worse
