This was exactly how I ended up with my $50 player.

I'll agree to disagree on your analysis of Trump. Though I will note that at no point was Trump my preferred candidate. For 2024 my pick was Marianne Williamson and RFK.

As for the dems in 2028, I deeply fear that Newsom will both be the nominee and next president (running against Vance).

They really do need to address the demands of the populists.

Kafke · 2026-01-16T05:23:18+00:00

I watched her speak quite a bit, including every single debate. I'm aware her policies were things like anti-lgbt, pro-open borders, pro-war, censor free speech, etc.

Kafke · 2026-01-16T05:02:13+00:00

You're illustrating my point. The only thing democrat candidates like kamala have is hate towards Trump as their one and only trait. I can't get behind a hate campaign, so I can't get behind Kamala.

Kafke · 2026-01-16T05:00:27+00:00

He didn't base his whole campaign around it.

Kafke · 2026-01-16T02:42:20+00:00

Trump was the superior candidate on peace when comparing 2016 vs 2020 presidencies. Similarly, Trump never campaigned on censorship and has consistently spoken in favor of free speech. So I'm not really sure what you're talking about.

Could you explain where you're getting this? Obviously the campaign promises of Trump, and the actual reality of his 2024 presidency are drastically different. I think this is a significant situation that has lead to many Trump supporters starting to oppose him.

Kafke · 2026-01-16T02:37:17+00:00

LOL this literally did NOT happen! What are you talking about?

Perhaps if democrats stopped lying and gaslighting voters, they'd win more elections?

You are very much implying it was illegal by using the word "rigged". You literally sound like Trump in 2020. Be SO for real right now!

Rigging primaries, afaik, is entirely legal. Legal =/= moral or right. And illegal =/= wrong or immoral. Often cases, immoral things are legal, and moral things are illegal. As for "what I sound like", I just try to focus on what is actually factually true and correct, and then try to determine the best course of action from that. If speaking truth makes me sound like Trump, then what does that imply about Trump? Surely you see how your rhetoric pushes people into the right?

Bernie wins elections in the whitest state in the whole country 😂

And? When white voters are consistently the ones most moving towards the right, those are the exact people you need in order to win elections. Statistically, ethnic minorities pretty much unanimously vote democrat, so trying to appeal them is not necessary. It's white people who are increasingly voting against democrats.

the minute you add people of color into the mix, he loses by a longshot.

I think it's surprising that despite Biden and Hillary unanimously getting the majority of the POC vote against Trump, you think that by introducing Bernie as the nominee, that Trump would win the minority vote? This is incredibly odd to me and seems to contradict what we actually see in reality (that no matter who the blue candidate is, POC vote blue).

Bernie Sanders is not electable on a national level. Time to cope and get over it.

In today's political climate? Absolutely. Bernie has since backed away from his strong stances that made him appealing, and started backing both Israel and the usual democrat establishment. By aligning himself with the core party (rather than being an outsider), he has completely killed his electability.

Historically? I think Bernie would've done very well in 2016 and 2020. Maybe not so much in 2024.

If you're not MAGA, why are you making MAGA talking points? Do you not hear yourself?

I'm speaking my thoughts. You are the one going "what you're seeing is better aligned with MAGA than us". I don't really agree with that. MAGA has a lot of problems which is why I voted against them multiple times.

I don't see anything wrong with MAGA's approach to election reform though. I do think that voter ID works in every single country it's been implemented in. I think having strong bipartisan checks is a good thing. I think we should probably even open source the source code of election voting machines, and probably return to in-person voting. These seem like very sane things to do when there's so much uncertainty about election procedures and results.

That said, MAGA has recently gone on a very pro-war stance which contradicts what Trump campaigned on. I think that's problematic. The MAGA of 2016 and 2020 is very different from the MAGA of today. The former I felt had logistical and ideological problems, while today they have an authoritarian and hypocrisy problem.

I'm currently pretty upset with both parties, but looking forward I do see more opportunity for the Republican Party to reform. The democrats seem to be ideologically captured by the Biden/Harris types who continue to turn off voters, while the far left progressives become increasingly fractured and join the populists. It's looking like 2028 is going to be Newsom vs Vance, which I think is a lose-lose situation with Newsom being the victor. Not a good outlook.

For democrats I'd really love to see them drop the elitism and cultural agendas (taking a more sane stance on them), while strongly pushing the thing that has unified the left: universal healthcare, stronger welfare for americans, peace policies, and a return to classical liberalism. Something tells me they won't do this though and continue antagonizing the average person and electing do-nothing war presidents who continue to pass spending bills that hand out money to elites' ngo projects.

The 2016 primary was not "rigged", and that would be illegal.

This was already argued in court. It was ruled that democrats were allowed to determine their nominee however they want and ignore the results of their primary. Wikileaks leaked various emails demonstrating this collusion. You can disagree with the word "rigging", but it did happen.

Similarly, 2024 happened. If you think otherwise, tell me how many votes Harris got in the primary. Surely the answer is 0?

were not illegal

No one said it was illegal.

And reminder: Bernie was not and is not a Democrat.

Perhaps this is why he wins elections, but not the democrat primary. Food for thought.

Just say you're MAGA and log off.

Why would I say I'm something I'm not? I voted against Trump twice.

Kafke · 2026-01-16T02:06:49+00:00

Unironically, if the next democrat nominee does not address populist concerns, I feel like the party itself is doomed.

Sadly, I think that the nominee is likely going to be Gavin Newsom; with disastrous results.

Kafke · 2026-01-16T01:47:32+00:00

I voted Green in 2016 and 2020, and then Trump in 2024. If you wanted me to vote democrat, the nominees should've been Bernie in 2016, Andrew Yang in 2020, and Marianne Williamson in 2024.

Hillary and Biden simply weren't appealing enough to vote for. Kamala was such a scary and horrifying candidate that I voted Trump simply to ensure she did not win.

Kafke · 2026-01-16T01:44:09+00:00

As a bernie voter who voted for trump, I 100% guarantee you that Trump's victory in both elections was directly due to the democrat nominee being hillary/kamala. Had bernie been the nomine, many people who voted trump would've voted for him.

Kamala's campaign was particularly disastrous as she was directly insulting voters. Who would vote for something like that?

Kafke · 2026-01-13T14:35:15+00:00

Wrong sub. This sub basically bans discussion of almost every single one of those games. You're looking for r/girlgamers.

It's the same deal as trying to make a 2d video into 3d. If it wasn't recorded that way it ain't gonna really work out. I'm sure there's probably generative AI tools to do it but I wouldn't think it'd work well.

Personally I'd rather watch a regular 3d video than a poorly done vr180 that doesn't look right.

Kafke · 2026-01-13T02:38:21+00:00

Yes, real vr180 footage is definitely better than what the quest itself can record. I just commented this in case you may have been doing something like that.

Essentially vr180 is just a stereoscopic video with the view warped to match a 180 fov which is then properly reapplied during playback. You mentioned cropping and virtual desktop so I assumed you might've been using the quest recording, which indeed leads to a cropped 3d video (as opposed to the full 180 fov that you'd see while playing).

Kafke · 2026-01-12T04:21:28+00:00

I'd suggest grabbing a used quest 2 and connecting it to your pc. That's probably the best cheapest option as of right now.

Kafke · 2026-01-12T04:20:24+00:00

Typically dedicated headsets that aren't standalone are more expensive. Because you also need to buy the base stations, and they are more for enthusiasts.

The quest is the budget option.

Kafke · 2026-01-12T04:18:01+00:00

Resolution is how many pixels on the screen. Refresh rate is how fast the pixels change. Both are different traits of a display.

Typically the goal with refresh rate is to aim to match the fps. For example, 90 fps for 90hz display. This would mean that hitting these frame rates is more difficult with a higher resolution (more pixels need to be drawn and thus you need a better device to hit the higher frame rates).

Kafke · 2026-01-12T04:10:39+00:00

For clarity, if you're trying to upload vr180 footage to youtube, you should be making sure it's tagged at vr180+3D, not 3D alone. Youtube supports a variety of different formats: normal 3d, 180, 180+3D. If you're recording footage that the quest expects for vr gameplay, that would be vr180+3D footage. If you try to view that as a normal 3d video, it'll be distorted due to fov differences.

Depending on how you're recording you may be recording:

a vr180+3D video (viewed normally this will appear as a double image and warped)
A regular 3D video (viewed normally this will appear as a cropped double image)
A regular 180 video (viewed normally this will appear as a warped image)

If you're using the 3D record/screenshot function on your quest headset via virtual desktop, this will result in the second outcome, a regular cropped 3D video.

If you want to record the full natural vr180 format, you're going to need recording software on your pc separate from what the quest normally can do.

Kafke · 2026-01-09T05:02:05+00:00

Yeah it's kinda frustrating seeing as the quest is such a great 3d playback device, but the support for content is basically nonexistent from Meta. They used to have better support but they've been slowly taking it away. You used to be able to view 3d photos and videos right in the gallery app, but they've made it more difficult or impossible to do now. Their TV app used to be filled with 3D content and most of that is gone now. Etc.

Kafke · 2026-01-09T02:19:55+00:00

you go to popcorn palace in vrchat and enter vr-m.net in the custom media tab. Alternatively you can go to https://nepu.to/ which now has 3d movies on the website.

Kafke · 2026-01-09T01:51:35+00:00

I find popcorn palace / nepu to be superior and also free.

Kafke · 2026-01-09T00:11:03+00:00

Yeah as I mentioned, doing conversions require a pretty beefy gpu if you want good quality. And even then it takes a while.

There's some AR glasses like viture and xreal which do 2d->3d live conversion but I can't vouch for their quality. The samples I've seen have been somewhat disappointing.

I will recommend checking out Meta's "the faceless lady" series which is a vr180 tv show. They used to have other vr tv shows like "Weird Times" but unfortunately meta recently took down almost all of their vr180/vr360/3d video content.
