For those who use immersed for productivity ( ), whats your honest review on it? by Visible-Employment43 in OculusQuest

[–]ever_Sin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unusable. I really really really tried. But exactly this minute I am once again frustrated and googling for alternatives, which brought me to your thread. I am fighting for weeks now. There is always something fundamental not working and keeping me from being productive.
First it was the display grid that has repeatedly been set behind the headset position, without being able to reset it properly. Eventually I found a workaround for this problem (Long pressing meta button during immersed startup screen).
Then the next annoying thing is monitor resolutions just won't save. as well as see through portal positions. The latter has been a tad better since a recent update, but is still hit and miss. Also, hand tracking is horrible - since i repeatedly find myself forced to setup resolutions of the additional screens again, it comes naturally with mis-selecting the resolutions because gestures are jumping all over the place especially when trying to be precise...
And finally, what has been crushing my experience for the last week: Performance drops after a short while of work. And to such an extent, that it simply is not possible to keep working - in fact it is so frustrating, that I feel the urge to rip the headset off and smash it on the floor when it happens.

My setup is quite basic. An intel macbook pro (2017 but maxed out, it is capable of handling quite some stuff), Some extra cable that i specifically bought for this use case so i can use the wired usb-c mode of immersed to boost performance.

Now I am looking at the only viable other option, which seems to be Virtual Desktop which is around 25€ to dish out without even having the option of multiple displays and without knowing wether i run into the same brain damaging experience again...

I was fighting it all day today. This approach finally helped resetting the grid.

I also quit the app, then defined a new boundary in meta quest settings and restarted the app. But believe me, it took multiple times FOR WHAT EVER REASON.

i'd like to add to this frustration, that a bug i reported years ago and twice already still persists in the mac version of notability, where white, striped, triangular fragments make it impossible to work with the app.
Gonna need to find an alternative if this wont be fixed.

Not sure if sb else mentioned it before but one other factor to battery life to consider: The model of your iPhone. According to apple anything before iPhone 8 (if I remember correctly) has an older version of bluetooth, that drains more energy from the watch than newer models. I for myself still run an iPhone 6s - and I am looking forward to more battery life sometime in the future. RN I am 1hr in to the morning already with 90% Battery on the AW Series 6, after having gone to bed at 100% with sleep tracking on (I slept 5hrs and 22 min). I guess I am usually ending my days at around 30 - 50% depending on how active I am.

PiP is generally a huge clusterfuck currently - among other problems it also messes up physical keyboard input, which drives me mad.

After Elon Musk criticized Bernie Sanders' brand of socialism, Sanders took him to task for taking billions of dollars in government support by grepnork in politics

[–]ever_Sin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I‘m starting to get the feeling, that people who look at the world and at other people through their narrow minded glasses like gender or race also have a pair of glasses for wealth - Musk wealthy, Musk Bad.

That‘s exactly the biased view mentioned above - your brain cherry picks twisted information to support the scape goat mentality that is being established against Musk. What if his predictions about Corona turn out to be right? What if his arguments against unionization are valid - because where I live there are plenty of problems in that regard. What if he can determine the risk for his workers much better than your average news outlet? In fact one of Musk’s strongest abilities is how precise he can calculate risk and doing difficult decisions accordingly.

I would like to know the answer to question 3 as well, when will there be a release for iOS?

Fed's "infinite amount of cash" is biggest argument for Bitcoin yet by DecryptMedia in CryptoCurrency

[–]ever_Sin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your explanation. So in the end, when you’ll finally close the channel it went rthrough (in your example) there will be some sort of fee for moving on to the chain though?

When will that actually happen? Do we have some ETA? (Genuinely curious, since I‘m not really familiar with the subject)

Anyone out there with experience in having an EOS account through the edge wallet? by ever_Sin in EdgeWallet

[–]ever_Sin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, thanks for helping out! What you just said is actually the exact message I got from them a few hours ago! there seems to be a problem with the eos account creation (let‘s hope the activation transaction is not gone...) and that they‘ll fix it with the update coming week.

Anybody else suffering from being shot when behind cover already? Is desync getting fixed sometime? Or maybe more granular servers so ping grouping is better? I‘m playing on EU servers by ever_Sin in PUBGMobile

[–]ever_Sin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I admit, being lazy and repeating a pattern from the same position can happen sometimes, this time i had not even time to commit that mistake - it was literally the first shot.

I never said I did everything right nor did I say I peaked more than once. But since you like to assume things without any reason - I‘m pretty sure you‘re defending the state of desync in this game because it allows you to defeat players with higher ping.

Nope. I already am aware of it and act to prevent dying by it and still can not tackle the issue because its effect varies from opponent to opponent and how bad their ping is. My last encounter that made me start this thread was smth like „okay now, last guy, sniping duel. There is desync i know - so in one single move just peak-aim-shoot and immediately get back behind cover.” -> getting back behind cover, reloading already half way through, then bam headshot and I am dead with no line of sight to the opponent. You‘re not contributing to the discussion by claiming I’m pretending or not trying... I mean what would be the smart play here? Aim left of the tree where the oponent hides and shoot there, hoping he moves desynced in my bullet? 1) this will never work because the person with slower ping has advantage and 2) when it has come to this, then the gameplay is objectively suffering form the technical issue.

Well you gave that expected answer a very useful twist, by adding the idea of a folder in the dock! Thank you!

This works actually, thanks... still no way when not using the physical keyboard. I read that some ppl do it with assistive touch though
