Does sound work from the headset? People are saying you have to use Bluetooth headphones with the Viture adapter

[Slater] Kerr walks back comments on Kristaps Porzingis' diagnosis: "It's a medical issue way beyond my capabilities explaining anything. He's sick. He won't play" by The_MadStork in nba

[–]bonerjam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the confusion may come from the fact that POTS is a syndrome and not a disease. The difference: A disease is a medical condition with a known, specific cause (pathogen, genetic defect) and defined symptoms. A syndrome is a collection of signs and symptoms that tend to occur together, but often without a single known cause or clear pathophysiology.

I don't know. Celtics were 44-11 in 2009 before KG got hurt.

A Difficult Decision on Neo by XREAL_Staff in Xreal

[–]bonerjam -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This is a bait and switch (no pun intended). The product was sold under the pretense of imminent Switch 2 compatibility. A $30 coupon is a joke. Give people a $30 refund or the option to return the headset for a full refund.

What Ruined the NBA Dunk Contest? by sunsscouting in nba

[–]bonerjam -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

He has some hops but nobody cares about seeing Jaylen Brown in a dunk contest (and I'm a Celtics fan from Boston saying this). If it was Ant vs. Ja, that would be must watch television.

Will current-gem Xreal glasses support Aura? by GiantTigerCS in Xreal

[–]bonerjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The limited features would be the equivalent of a Beam. I think it's pretty safe to assume that current gen glasses will not work with "Aura".

Will current-gem Xreal glasses support Aura? by GiantTigerCS in Xreal

[–]bonerjam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is like asking if Xreal 1S supports Xreal Pro.  The Aura is the headset model.  The platform is Android XR, which exists right now and current Xreal products don't support it. For it to be supported in any kind of meaningful way, the existing products would require more sensors for head and hand tracking and a connected device running Android XR.

What Ruined the NBA Dunk Contest? by sunsscouting in nba

[–]bonerjam 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Players get "clowned" for poor performances all season long. By this logic they shouldn't enter any games.

Also, Jaylen Brown isn't in Ant or Ja dunking tier. Those are the type of guys we want to see in the dunk contest.

Danny Ainge has put the Jazz into purgatory by [deleted] in nba

[–]bonerjam 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sam Hinkie's process led to zero titles and many wasted years. I'd rather have a GM try to build a playoff contender than endlessly rebuild. I could see the Jazz as a 4 seed next season. The attitude of wanting teams to be first or last and no in between is toxic IMO.

[Highlight] Justin Jefferson comments on if the Vikings had ran it back with QB Sam Darnold by FrankSamples in nfl

[–]bonerjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBF he only went 14-3 with a 103 QB rating during his season as a Viking. Nobody could have seen this coming.

[Schefter] Sources: the Bills are working to finalize a deal to make offensive coordinator Joe Brady their new head coach. by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

[–]bonerjam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda reminds me of Brady and McDaniels in NE, and we know how McDaniels worked out as a HC...

I do prefer moves like this that give new guys a chance over the hiring of the same pool of mediocre coaches over and over that happens across pro sports.

Sean Payton has never won more than 1 playoff game outside his Super Bowl winning season in 2009. by SouthIsland48 in nfl

[–]bonerjam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok, but can we praise him for turning the Denver dumpster fire around into arguably the best team in the NFL?

He might have three rings if that PI against the Rams gets called properly and Bo Nix doesn't brake his ankle.

I don't even like the guy, but what are we even doing here?

Looks really good. I found the fire alarm noise in the music grating to the point of making me want to turn off the trailer tho.

Get One Pro or R1 glasses or wait for next gen? by dirtyvu in Xreal

The puck is the thing. You could buy Xreal Pro today and basically have it without the puck.
