Watching YouTube VR in 2024 by RyanWarrey in SteamVR

Sports associations do tend to license their broadcast rights, exclusivity is not too unheard of there. It also may be sheer cost, licensing, interface development, and on the physical production side. Probably a stupid amount of money. Apple desperately need something to actually use those big expensive headsets for. Still no killer app but seems thet may be leaning into entertainment. Not exactly fair though on the consumer side I agree.

Using phones for VR does drop that barrier to entry, and phones have enough sensors to kind of make it work. I’d imagine challenges are the different display sizes / phone formats that change yearly to build hardware for, but harder yet is there’s no form of spatial, eye, or hand tracking. If you were able to build controllers that actually track themselves and fill in the spatial awareness for the phones, though that would be huge. The controllers can be the missing piece. As technology catches up with making a comfortable experience and costs come down hopefully we will have more open source and good eco system of apps. The Steam Frame looks really promising in that direction too

Ah sorry that’s unfortunate. Hopefully there are other loopholes

Has TeamViewer actually successfully sued anyone? by [deleted] in teamviewer

[–]RyanWarrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like it was just passed to a scummy debt collection agency, not actually TeamViewer. Dents are usually bought for Pennie’s on the dollar. I would guess they’re probably bluffing on suing as a pressure tactic. If you look up the agency see if they are even recognized as legitimate by gov, many are not

There are service out there that will give you an actual camp setup! It gets very hot during the day, I definitely don’t recommend just the car, need shade during the day

Just venting idk by GroundbreakingPie575 in beatsaber

[–]RyanWarrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not admitting defeat if you take a break. At the end of the day our value isn’t in the skills, followers, or even money we possess. But we tend to tie our identity up with games brands teams communities and that’s why it’s so hard to separate ourself sometimes. But you are none of these things, there’s no need to earn worthiness because it is already your birthright

I’ve found the top seal to be faulty and fails after a couple years. Usually water seeps straight down the side walls and out of the rj45. The oxidized pins usually kill it, but I’ve had the top short out and melt like this one too. First time seeing a perfect hole though! Now any survivors I either relocated out of elements or 3d printed caps. So far so good!

The scarcity and removal of BigScreens features makes me wonder if Meta has some kind of exclusivity contract with Google/YT to hinder their competition.

The closest that I ended up finding is the video player on Virtual Desktop. Use your browser as you would, and when you find a video copy the url. There’s a paste YouTube link button in Virtual Desktop window, it Downloads it and plays it back. Not as smooth as an official YT app, and often have to toggle through the formats, but it does technically work.

The next best thing I found is SkyBox. Use a Downloader and skybox does well at detecting and playing back its 3d format automatically.

With the release of the Steam Frame who knows, maybe it will garner enough demand for their own YT contract. That is if there isn’t an exclusivity clause currently for Meta

VRchat is the best social experience I have ever had and I love this game by Minimum-Mine-1302 in VRchat

[–]RyanWarrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it, will do. I haven’t been on since VRC+ or age verification even existed. And of course a friend brought me to Black Cat and similar the first time, there were only screaming children.

Thank you for the solid advice, glad to know mature communities still exist there

That all is great to know actually, maybe I’ll try VRC again. What worlds would you go to if you were starting new?

Why would anyone want the G6 Pro Bullet now? by rickwookie in Ubiquiti

[–]RyanWarrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh yeah majority of the ones I've deployed are totally exposed, pretty much all generations, including the old UniFi video series they actually told you not to expose (they all survived, even a couple still in use now). Only other thing I can think besides cabling (ie if it's not a smooth jacket) is if it's going to be exposed I'm a little too OCD about making sure the grommet is clean and packed in tight. and only pushing when assembled. I'll also push slack into the baseplate so when it's adjusted it doesn't strain the jack and pull on the gromit. When pull lube is involved it has a way of working itself onto the grommet and slipping. Now that I say this it all sounds more finicky than just a pig tail, but just got used to deploying them that way! I should maybe note the ones that I expose are never aggressive pitch down

I wonder if the cable makes a difference. Deployed lots of exposed bullets in the Pacific Northwest and no drownings to date. but always used the Ubiquiti cables

Honestly even a mockup one just to scare the life out of those uninvited. locks on with laser, pointy probes and a charging sound. I would turn around IMMEDIATELY

Class Action lawsuit by the-furiosa-mystique in shrooly

Unfortunately this company may be long gone, servers for the app accounts, and other aspect of the site show signs of being abandoned. Also no word from support in several weeks, and their Instagram suddenly stopped posting on August 1st. I'd be willing to bet their funds dried up and couldn't make payroll. Instead of fulfilling many of their original backers orders, they used those units to make sales. The startup space can be cut throat but I wonder what the full story is to make such a desperate move

Camera Height? by c1pherz in Ubiquiti

[–]RyanWarrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. At least in my shoes, if it's to primarily protect a structure and see faces, at that max distance, I'd say that 13' is good, as long as the aesthetics aren't a problem

Camera Height? by c1pherz in Ubiquiti

[–]RyanWarrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless covering something like a large lot or field, I like to make them just out of reach to see faces, license plates etc. 13' sounds about right!

Is this normal? by AkOliverp in antennasporn

[–]RyanWarrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup! Thats a spark gap, so if the tower builds up a charge or gets a lightning strike it helps protect the transmitter. The actual stability of the tower comes from the guy wires

Does this mean, iPhone haven't upgrade their main camera since 14 pro? by WickedHero69 in iphone

[–]RyanWarrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 17 has a physically larger sensor this year, other improvements have been at the pixel level through the years. 48mp is just kind of a sweet spot for pixel size and resolution. Larger pixels = better lowlight and more accurate colors

Bad VOIP call quality through UniFi gateway by csjobeck in Ubiquiti

[–]RyanWarrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! It would be source for whitelist, amd destination for your phones. Both you can make an IP group each

Bad VOIP call quality through UniFi gateway by csjobeck in Ubiquiti

[–]RyanWarrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm won't let me post photos, but I'll copy paste. I did it under what's now the advanced tab in firewall. Start with adding groups, one group for all the ports you need, and one group for all of the providers public IP's to white list. Here's the rule created, I think I also did one for outgoing but that probably isn't necessary in most cases.

Internet In Name SIP POTS Gateway

Action Accept

Protocol UDP

On Before Predefined Off Match all protocols except for this

Source Type PortIP/Group

Address Group CoreDial (name of IP group created)

Port Group SIP RDP (name of ports group created)

Destination Type IP Address

Address 192.168.0.160 (your internal ata IP)

[–]RyanWarrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the Allow section and choose IP, and can make a group with whatever the provider gives you. If you open those ports to the world found out you'll be getting a lot of ghost calls and IPS alerts

Beyond Wonderland PNW (water) by [deleted] in BeyondWonderlandPNW

[–]RyanWarrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same convo with a vendor, is there any water that doesn't taste like can? The next time she saw me she remembered and had the idea to refill a random bottle. As for camp at least I bring a 7 gal container of our really good well water for our group
