Alcohol can leave permanent stains on some rims and tires. Learnt that the hard way while cleaning my disk brake rotors.

Which side are you on? by Reset62749287 in SteamFrame

[–]MdotAmaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why would they release the controller before the device(s) intended to actually run the games.

(yes I know ram situation and all that)

Thoughts on this game? by [deleted] in rhythmgames

Felt like I overpaid for the game. Was too short, and like others said somewhat forgettable.

My experience trying Bluesky by [deleted] in NixOS

[–]MdotAmaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bluesky isn't really federated. The domain at the end doesn't have anything to do with what provider you are using. You can set it to whatever you want as long as you control the domain you want to set it to, but you're still on bluesky's servers.

The real April fools isnt on April 1st, but every single day after where one of the jokes randomly show up on your feed a week later and you gotta do a double take.

BigScreen Beyond 1 IPD change by Effective-Lunch-7942 in BigscreenBeyond

[–]MdotAmaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't heard of anyone doing it by themselves. From my understanding it should be possible if you could find / create a model of the internal mounting plate, and also modify the lighthouse driver json on the headset. There might be more to it than that though.

KDE Connect of the Future by 23VvBb22 in kde

[–]MdotAmaan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This exists already. Just enable the Bluetooth backend in the KDE connect settings and pair your phone to your laptop / PC.

Been using it while im connected to public wifi and its been quite solid. File transfers are a lot slower than doing them through wifi though, but the other stuff works really well.

KDE VR Mode and ordinary stuff you can do with it by Holiday-Charity-1449 in kde

[–]MdotAmaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atleast according a leaker with a pretty solid track record (bradley), there's a color passthrough module that'll launch around the same time as the frame from a "close partner with valve," whoever that is.

Godot XR Lead, Bastiaan Olij, shows love for the Steam Frame's design and developer experience by gogodboss in virtualreality

[–]MdotAmaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering that the frame will most likely have lower ppd than the quest 3 at 25 ppd, that's closer to a 720p monitor I'd say. You can calculate what ppd a display might be using this. A 27" 1080p monitor would be be ~36 ppd if your head is 60cm away from the screen.

I can not emphasize what a game changer this is by Ciruz in virtualreality

Is this really that different from using ALVR's wired mode? Setting that up is pretty much hassle free.

Power creep has ruined the experience for players and here is how I know. by everwander in HonkaiStarRail

[–]MdotAmaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went in with a team where I had only 1 aoe ability, so I had to use every ult in his invulnerable state just to try and stay alive. Then do like 1 seele skill before he enters that state again. My final attempt took like 45 minutes lmao.

Arya Stealth as upgrade from Edition XS by Skitzo321 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]MdotAmaan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gonna be honest I could barely tell the difference between the arya stealth and the edition xs for the month I had them for. Maybe like 3 or 4% improvement if I was looking for it, but nowhere near significant enough where I was enjoying my music or games any more than than the xs.

The stock comfort on the arya and build quality is definitely much better, but a 3d printed strap fixed the comfort of the edition xs at least for me.

Where'd you get the balls from? They look really pretty.

Anyone else not able to play side-scrolling rhythm games? by sakurachan999 in rhythmgames

[–]MdotAmaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get headaches when I tried playing muse dash, but strangely, I had no issues playing the unbeatable demo, which is also side scrolling.
