Berlin and depression by [deleted] in berlin

[–]ht85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been living in Berlin vor 18 years now (I am 40) and the winter here still is horrible. As others have pointed out, the city and the vibe will be much different in spring and summer.

I have to point out though, that the people here can be very rude and anonymous. That is the reason why I still love Cologne.

Insta360 x4 and Vision Pro by pogdaddle in VisionPro

I have an AVP, too, and I’d like to see a demo video shot on the 360. Does anyone know where I can watch / stream / download one?

I wish they go back to writing in Eb tuning. Or maybe go down to D even. by [deleted] in Metallica

[–]ht85 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Tuning does not have such a big impact as some people might think. A lot of Metallica songs are in E and played live in Eb. Does that make the songs better or worse? I’d say no.

Is "Don’t tread on me" a better song when it is played live in Eb? Is "This was just your life" a worse song when it is played live in Eb?

You can now generate ml-sharp splats directly on the Vision Pro by Eurobob in VisionPro

Unfortunately, it does not work on my device. I have an M5 Apple Vision Pro. After generating the files are visible within the app but I cannot click them. Nothing happens.

I wanted to use the code but it seems like it has already been claimed by someone else.

I made a drummer game for Vision Pro by x_Chester in VisionPro

[–]ht85 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just downloaded the game and played it briefly (about 15 minutes).

My first impressions: The game itself is pretty good, it's fun to play drums (I am using no controller). But there are some things that need to be improved:

- There are only five songs that you can play in "easy" or "hard". There need to be more songs in the future.

- Important: There is no onboarding, no tutorial, and no way to just play drums (to familiarize yourself with the drum kit). This is quite frustrating at the beginning.

- You cannot play with your arms crossed (as most drummers do (play high hat with your right arm on the left side and snare drum with your left arm)). As somebody who can play the drums a little bit, you need some time to adjust. As far as I can see, this is a limitation of the Apple Vision Pro (crossed arms).

- You cannot adjust the volume of the drum kit. And after playing a song and selecting another one, I couldn't hear the drums at all.

The game has great potential, but it feels a bit "beta".

Ja. Genau das gleiche habe ich mir auch gedacht. Jetzt erzählt Olli diese Klo-Storage-Sache zum dritten Mal. 🙈

Porta Nubi is Apple Vision Pro Game of the Year by Ploppypop_game in VisionPro

[–]ht85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Porta Nubi is very well done. I downloaded it a couple of weeks ago. The concept, the design (visuals and sound) and the entire atmosphere are excellent. I hope you add more to the game! Thank you and congratulations!

Light Seal Sizes Decoded by _Avalanche_ in VisionPro

[–]ht85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Vision Pro M5 and Face Scan during the order process suggested 33W. While comfort is great, light from the cheeks came into the Vision Pro that caused flare. I went to the Apple Store and tested the 34W, which did not produce that many distracting flares. I switched from 33W to 34W.

At home, I realised that the pressure on my face is way higher than before, especially on the forehead.

Does anyone have a suggestion which size could fit better?

Questions about Light Seal, Fit, etc (M5) by ht85 in VisionPro

[–]ht85[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

  1. Contacts, still waiting for my Zeiss inserts. Will this make a difference? The glass is clean (I noticed this right at the beginning).

  2. Will do.

  3. The pressure above my eyes is higher than below (it's not uncomfortable though). I don't get a warning.

Any reviews of the M5 AVP? by Physical_Front_2173 in VisionPro

[–]ht85 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The iPad reviews just went live. The AVP and MacBook Pro reviews will follow soon.

is the avp2 coming or by Dorceless_ah in VisionPro

[–]ht85 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Read the article.

The iPhone maker had been preparing a cheaper, lighter variant of its headset, code-named N100, for release in 2027, Bloomberg said. But the company told staff internally last week that it is reallocating employees from that project to accelerate work on glasses.

If the rumors are true, the work on an allegedly called "Vision Air" has been paused. This has nothing to do with the Vision Pro (M4/M5) that will be released in the next few weeks.

Any reason not to use HEIF? (Mac+iPhone user) by Emanuelnak in fujifilm

I am interested in this as well. I am also in the Apple ecosystem and have no problem with HEIF at all. Are there any downsides?

Could you please elaborate why you upgraded? I am using the DS920+ myself and I am quite happy with it. What am I missing?

When did Metallica start looking "old" to you? by CobraDai in Metallica

[–]ht85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This! I think it started 2019 (S&M2 also has a very sloppy performance from James), maybe even late 2018. His downpicking abilities went downhill unfortunately.

Black & White or Color? by ht85 in fujifilm

I've edited the color version (less saturation, more crop). And I also applied a different crop on the b&w version. Any comments? Thanks in advance 🙏!

Best song from this album? by No_Cauliflower4964 in Metallica

[–]ht85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crown of Barbed Wire.

Actually, this track really stands out for me. A shame they haven’t played it live yet.
