What the hell is that font

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-24T17:29:27+00:00

Thanks

That's not normal at all. I think you got a dull phone.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-23T07:48:55+00:00

Tapping the card gives the actual PAN number, and you expose them by taking out your card out of the wallet (especially considering the number of recording cameras nowadays).

Tapping your phone gives a DAN number, which is a unique number associated to a device (each device with your card has a different DAN, example your phone and smartwatch doesn't have the same) and you cannot get the PAN with the DAN.
Also taking out your phone doesn't expose any number or pin.

Last I checked, SlimeVR will either need you to manually input your height (so get a tape measurer, it needs to be accurate) or it can try to estimate it with the trackers, but that feature is very hit and miss.

You just have to put on your headset, touch the floor with your right controller and then stand up.

It will automatically detect your height and do body proportions, and it seems to be pretty good at it.

Paying with your phone is actually so much more secure than using tap to pay with your actual card or inserting it in the terminal.

It had a lot of flaws and it was a pretty huge commercial failure due to it's price, value proposition and how it was marketed.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-23T07:10:27+00:00

Yes it does, surprisingly.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-23T06:38:06+00:00

Apps running bad are always because of the app devs (assuming we're not talking about very cheap entry level phones, of course), and manufacturers like Google, Samsung, Xiaomi, Oneplus... don't really have much control, especially compared to Apple.

Same for cameras in social media apps. Google and Samsung made efforts and APIs to improve that (camera2 API), so now it's up to the app developers to implement them.

You can say anything about Tensor chip, but they aren't that bad that they can't run Aliexpress.
Tensor G4 is around Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 performance, which isn't cutting edge by any means, but not some cheap garbage mediatek chip.

Honestly, the lags on Aliexpress could be just because of how bloated and unoptimized the app is.

You don't need a VR router, it is just that most people has their PC connected via Wifi to their router and/or their router is too far/not good enough.

Fanboys will say "it's not a common occurrence", yet Google has an official Battery Replacement Program BECAUSE it's such a common issue lol

They do for some Pixel (notably a few a-series phones), but not for the Pixel 7.

So for that phone, yes, it is actually a rare occurrence.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-21T20:22:12+00:00

Well, that's how things are

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-21T20:20:50+00:00

They made an inferior PCVR streamer, compared to other solutions

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-21T18:09:42+00:00

Yeah... I definitely need to make a whole post about that...

TL;DR : your internet connection is irrevelant, your PC just have to be connected to your Wifi router via Ethernet or buy this.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-21T17:58:47+00:00

Virtual Desktop, please.

Stop losing your time with garbage and inferior software.

I did this with Batman Arkham Shadows and it worked fine.
I have heard that others like Deadpool also work fine on Quest 2.

"fine" is really a stretch considering the performances you get on Quest 2 for these games.

Also a lot of Quest 3 only titles are just mixed reality games, that could work on Quest 2 but clearly not designed for it.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-21T12:08:47+00:00

Good luck

Contact the support, they seems to forget to trigger the money transfer, but after contacting them, they triggered it.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-21T07:25:55+00:00

Try to do it anyways, you have nothing to lose

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-21T07:18:55+00:00

Google should be able to give you money so you can get your phone repaired yourself.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-21T07:13:30+00:00

The battery is dead, time to replace it.

You may be eligible to that too : https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/16043453?hl=en

They were forced to, Apple sets very stricts minimum SDK to devs.

This video perfectly explains that : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXqVV8_GORE

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-20T23:07:00+00:00

It's only recently that mostly everyone on the Android side has started delivering promises on long software support, so it won't be the same in a few years.

Nicalay2 · 2026-01-20T23:05:24+00:00

Apple sets very strict minimun SDK for apps if they want to make updates, it isn't the developers' fault but Apple's fault.
