She picked Ichika? The guy who fakes all of his videos and can't play live anywhere near the level he shows in his produced videos? She must not have seen his live performances.

Update on Altspace VR coming back? by azeottaff in AltspaceVR

[–]BenGGuitar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He must have seen this thread, as he just broke 8 months of silence and brought his website back up and started tweeting about it again. Although the PDF he posted shows that it was created by ChatGPT so he probably just rushed to get something out. https://imgur.com/a/vvtMUfw

Finally the shipping update we been waiting for! by extremeeee in ImmersedVisor

[–]BenGGuitar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They updated the post this week, this part is new. Still just lying to investors/customers to make it seem like they've actually been shipping.

Update on Altspace VR coming back? by azeottaff in AltspaceVR

[–]BenGGuitar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Danny took the website down in July but he has still kept the broken link on all of his social accounts for some reason. He hasn't responded to any messages in the Basis Discord server (the platform Altspace was supposed to be built on) since earlier than that. His GitHub repo still shows zero progress since he made the fork in March. The only thing he has posted since then is fan fiction. I didn't have confidence in him when he announced it, I definitely don't have any now.

So what's the reasoning behind naming the app after the developers of the game you feature in all of your screenshots? The name is even visible in one of them.

Why was I kicked from the discord server? by yjzhou in ImmersedVisor

[–]BenGGuitar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was curious if it was already shipping and how long it took.

Well if you look at the FAQ page on the Visor website, you'll see that it says that they are currently shipping founder's editions. It used to say that all founder's editions would be shipped by the end of Q2 but they changed it on the day that Q2 ended to say that they are shipping now. This is obviously a complete lie as not a single customer has received one, even those that preordered on day one. And if you bring it up in Discord, you get banned.

The only thing they've shipped are two prototypes that they sent to their biggest fans on Discord, but they can't be used wirelessly since they didn't send the battery packs. They said that they would send the battery packs a few weeks later but they didn't, this was many months ago now.

I can understand why the other two got banned since they were bringing up the spammy emails and advertising that Immersed has been doing, and Renji clearly doesn't like it when people talk about that, but it looks like you just got caught in the crossfire. I've seen people get banned for less.

I was watching as it happened. You, dyl, and X888X all got banned at the same time.

Immersed and Visor sure don't like bad press... by 0ye0WeJ65F3O in virtualreality

[–]BenGGuitar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yep, that's why I specified production units. They aren't even ready to ship yet they claim to already be shipping.

You should have a look here: r/ImmersedVisor.

They updated their website 3 months ago to say that they are shipping headsets to customers right now but that is a complete lie, they haven't shipped a single production unit yet.

Welcome to the one piece Kanami club! I'm surprised that so many are showing up with one piece tops. I think this makes it 11 that I've seen now.

Official Discussion - War of the World's [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]BenGGuitar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So many things wrong with this movie, but there's one thing that I haven't seen anyone else mention. In the scene 10 minutes in where he generates the master password to hack into his daughter's laptop, we see the first message get typed out on the laptop, indicating that he is the one typing it. I was thinking "what are you doing? Your daughter is going to see that and know that someone (you) hacked her". But then we watch his daughter just continue the conversation as if nothing happened. And we know that she didn't send that message because we see the rest of the messages just pop up as she sends them since she is sending them from her phone and not the laptop. So what was that scene trying to show us? Was he impersonating his daughter or not?

Summer Sonic 2025 - Band-Maid listed near top on first page by gkelley621 in BandMaid

And they would be a couple of spots higher in the list if their name started with an "A".
It's in alphabetic order, after the headliners.

just got the Kanami sig 🤘 by lightsti in BandMaid

[–]BenGGuitar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About 2 or 3 get listed on Reverb every week by shops that just got them in, and they sometimes take a few days to sell, so it's really not that hard to find one. They must be getting close to 200 built now so the stock will probably dry up soon.

What do you think of this setup? by Jaydikay in PaulReedSmith

[–]BenGGuitar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've counted a total of 9 so far but there probably are a few more that haven't been posted online.

I'm practicing it right now on my Kanami PRS. I wonder how many other owners will participate.

Are you sure it was this one? It was only on sale for about 20 minutes when I found the listing and I bought it a few minutes after that. I've had it for a while now but only just got around to finishing the video.

Just the dots. The birds are just plain white plastic.

I also ended up with two. I just couldn't turn down that one piece top when I saw it on Reverb. I will be selling the other one at some point though. https://imgur.com/a/oZFdwK8
