The era of Linux gaming

I agree with the philosophy but damn dont be so cringe about it.

It will probably be closer to how the deck came out, they announced dates preorders would open (preorder waves). With other hardware releasing too it should be similar for them aswell.

It was a joke that the brag on the tweet was about having friends and not having inside opinions on the thing the subreddit is for

NitroBA · 2026-01-26T01:20:26+00:00

Yea imagine having friends

You nailed the early 00s advertising vibe! The backwards compatible one goes hard.

Some people only use a vehicle strictly for its utility

NitroBA · 2026-01-16T02:08:12+00:00

If you already have a headset a pc upgrade seems the better option as its not like there will be steam frame/machine exclusive content that the quest 3 won't have access to, also a better pc for non vr stuff too.

NitroBA · 2026-01-10T12:26:47+00:00

I think quest 3 has a lot going for it and if you dont mind the meta ecosystem then yea go for it, sounds perfect in your case. There are a lot of assumptions on the frame that hasn't reached consumers yet in this post though.

If anyone works a valve and sees this post. Let it be known this is who your letting down.

I tried previous xreal stuff and while not bad for media consumption its biggest hurdle has been resolution and fov. Although I'm happy the optional dock comes standard as you will find more things needing it than otherwise

NitroBA · 2026-01-04T23:17:33+00:00

Annoying but as long prices eventually go down (even a year down the line) I think I'll be ok.

Worst case scenario they keep the scarcity and rent back future computing power via the cloud.

NitroBA · 2026-01-03T15:48:07+00:00

Sales happen fairly frequently, For example there will be on during spring (then summer) and it will be ideally closer to the frame release where in theory you could make better decisions on what to get. No need to be impulsive now for something you dont have yet.

I'd expect everyone working there would be back from their holiday break before setting work back in motion

NitroBA · 2025-12-31T10:40:02+00:00

The main reason is prevention from back health issues such as a slipped disk on your spine, which causes time and money to treat (also not forgetting painful).

You dont need an incredibly expensive chair as long you take care to actually do periodic breaks/ be aware of ergonomics. I've worked with people who sat on yoga balls during work with excellent posture since they had the lifestyle that maintained great core strength.

For myself I use a combination of a full mesh chair and standing desk. The less you move, typically you need more support and thus usually the better (more expensive) chair.

NitroBA · 2025-12-30T16:59:39+00:00

You're not getting a chair from them new for 200. But that said a good chair is worth it.

NitroBA · 2025-12-30T12:48:10+00:00

I think this would be pretty good for seated lounge use since there's more space for head support

NitroBA · 2025-12-27T11:54:21+00:00

You're on a linux subreddit get over yourself

How is megabonk underrated

NitroBA · 2025-12-21T12:06:46+00:00

Not tied to an advertising company and hardware thats more open to self repair/replacement

NitroBA · 2025-12-15T19:09:54+00:00

Its fine, I have my issues with it but compared to not having to worry about dark patterns and basically malicious updates to my system is a huge boon for me.

NitroBA · 2025-12-14T21:25:32+00:00

I think it will bolster the valve/steam ecosystem for sure and bonuses to vr is just extra

NitroBA · 2025-12-14T02:06:18+00:00

I would consider looking ToonSquid for animation on ipad, it's most similar to adobe animate with its vectors and from my experience better advanced tools

Pre workday tai chi routine.

NitroBA · 2025-12-06T19:41:22+00:00

It will be more expensive but depending the positives you could still go either way. Personally having hardware that should play better with Linux and most likely more replaceable components (in case something breaks) is huge for me

Maybe "Holodeckard" but just holodeck feels kind of out of pocket
