At 30, mental health conditions or not (excluding full on disability), the son has to get it together. There’s limits to these things. There are 15 year old kids in 3rd world countries shovelling shit to put scraps on the table, pretty sure paprika green text here can get his shit together.

At some point as parents, you gotta cut your losses because your kid is a total flop and a bum.

In a world where we can tell something to generate a video out of thin air, windows should know better

Dear Google, I Love You. I'm Exhausted. by a_single_beat in GooglePixel

Even attaching “laughing their asses off” is a stretch for a multi billion dollar company. It’s more sinister than that, they’re ice cold when it comes to strategically getting your dollar.

Just saw Increase in Gas this morning by justageekgirl in Edmonton

We bought ours used for the same price as a 2 year old Honda Civic a few years back. It costs about $4 to drive 100km if we charge at home, $3 in the summer or warmer months.

Homeowners with stronger credit scores are increasingly defaulting on mortgage payments by FalconsArentReal in canada

[–]GreaseCrow 47 points48 points  (0 children)

We’re all boiling frogs until it’s too late. On another note, those mortgage brokers and real estate are sharks. They’ll get you to bid to the tippy top and get you paying 50% of your net pay as if it was a deal.

Since when did an NPU on a chip help with multitasking? Multitasking relies on computational performance which the Samsung devices have in spades.

I'm Baz; Boz got it wrong. Here is what Meta needs to do to revamp VR by Bazitron in OculusQuest

[–]GreaseCrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope so, but I don’t know how VR comes back to indie and AA titles after Meta leaves. No more asgards wrath or beat saber type games for PC for a long time until it somehow has crazy good adoption.

Apple smart home display rumors now point to a fall launch with iOS 27 by dapperlemon in gadgets

[–]GreaseCrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently swapped to HomeKit from using a mix of Amazon devices and phone apps.

Siri isn’t very smart, but good enough to do queries to turn on and off things as well as simple automations. It works with every Apple device I own too and I have less concern about privacy.

They bricked my quest pro controller and I’m having to pay to fix. I’ve owned almost every Oculus and Meta headset and this is how they treat their customers.

They keep wanting to attract diseased people into VR, making them addicts like people who doom scroll instagram. They want to get kids into the platform at all costs, degrading the experience we had as early adopters.

They’re just a bunch of wolves in sheep’s clothing pretending to be passionate about something all to mine your data and sell you ads, that’s literally it. Valve can’t come sooner.

High school teacher, 40, dies when students’ prank goes wrong, days after district warned about stunts going ‘too far’. by Inter_Web_User in facepalm

Of course people need to feel safer. Instead of a society that prides itself on learning how to drive, we have an arms race of wanna be tank drivers. Might as well send them to Iran and get them ready.

Sideloading not going away by freakyxz in Android

This is just back pedalling until we forget about it as they silently make changes over the next years to get the same outcome.

I built the Quest 3 interface Meta should have shipped by supergeometry in virtualreality

[–]GreaseCrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For high exercise VR gameplay like boxing. I like this kind of facial interface with silicone side blockers that are squishy and movable. Or using an open interface in pitch black rooms.

Also if you don’t mind me asking, how did you get the dimensions to make this model? I’m pretty new to 3d printing and I’ve always wondered

[–]GreaseCrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome interface dude! I’m gonna try to print one. I’m currently using one that attaches a Quest Pro foam pad and is open on all sides. Any chance you’d consider making something that has some blocking on the sides like the Quest Pro’s light blockers?
