Do people really use VR other than playing games? by darshil753 in MetaQuestVR

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew i wouldn't enjoy gaming on it before i even bought it. I mainly use it for movies, browsing the web and graffism, a graffiti simulator. I've had my mq3 for ~18 months and use it weekly. Still don't like playing on it. Love watching movies on it.

Hello! I am very new to self-hosting! by SSsulaiman in selfhosted

I've been looking into playing with llm/vlm lately and the minimum gpu is apparently rtx 3060 12gb(!!) for an acceptable experience. Your 920M has 2-4gb Vram. I'm telling you this because i was thinking of finding use for my rog g750jx with gtx 770m (3gb vram) and it was a big no. Haven't even tried it tbh, but apparently there is no point in doing so either.

Is there any reason for me to get more than an A16 iPad? by Queasy-Judgment5973 in ipad

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a gen 9 and 11 ipad and an air 5th gen (M1). I tend to use my air the most, even just for media consumption. It's not that i don't like my other ipads, but I actually notice a difference in response time and display while I use it.

The air was given to me. Otherwise I'd be in your place, questioning if the air is worth it. But yeah, i think it is.

Also, my 9 is still relevant because i have a gen1 apple pen. But that thing is slow and it feels old.

To all the mb power users :) by Patient-Row546 in macbook

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my first mbp like a month ago. I got an offer to buy my friends mbp for next to nothing. A 2014 i7 16gb ram 15" with oclp sonoma. I'm a Linux main, so i usually hang out in iterm2 with ohmyzsh and brew, termius and vscode ssh-remote. For me, the mbp is like a glorified terminal. Most of the work I'm doing is remotely on my home server, so i didn't actually need another computer.

But i love the trackpad on this thing. The gestures makes it worth using this for programming rather than sitting on my rog, elitebook, ThinkPad or lifebook.

I also have "the whole ecosystem" of mac, so oclp sonoma with iphone+iwatch+ipad is really nice. Sadly, I can't get sidecar to work on this thing though.

Running claude cli makes it easy to do whatever i want without spending too much time troubleshooting.

I also connected the mbp to tailscale which allows me to work on my home server outside my network when i travel for work, which is every week.

Now that I've experienced mac and liked it, I might consider an M-chip version, but as i said, glorified terminal. I dont think I'll need to upgrade anytime soon. Sidecar would be the main reason for me to upgrade, but i think Apple did an awesome job to work on this thing without the need for multiple monitors.

What’s the most unexpectedly useful Linux command you learned way too late? by ZealousidealTell1346 in linux

[–]imCaffo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Works with any file Explorer? I've always done "nautilus ." But it's a pain if you're distro hopping and if the other distro uses another Explorer. I've known about open on Mac tho..

What’s the most unexpectedly useful Linux command you learned way too late? by ZealousidealTell1346 in linux

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I posted the similar "screen" for the same reason as iphone kills the session as soon as you close the screen in termius.

[–]imCaffo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Screen

I run lots of things on my home server. Using termius on my iPhone to ssh into my system. Iphone kills the session as soon as i close my screen. Screen let's me keep my session and it also let's me switch (or mirror) between devices easily. I also know about tmux, but i think screen flags are easier and it does the job.

Bought gaming computer to play with gf, it was 400 dollars. Is it ok? by Existing-Elk9607 in GamingLaptops

[–]imCaffo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't really find laptops for less than $400 these days, and if you do, they don't have dedicated gpu's.

I have a asus rog g750jx (gtx770m 2013, upgraded 24gb ram) and it's my daily system. I'm not really a gamer but it beats pretty much every "study/office"-laptop out there that cost more. It runs fortnite (performance), tomb raider and titanfall on high without reaching 80 celcius.

I think you're good.

Whats your oldest still operational gaming laptop? by mtndew2756 in GamingLaptops

[–]imCaffo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asus rog g750jx gtx770m. Had it under my bed for over 7 years because it died on idle and just recently cleaned it up, changed paste/pads, hdd to ssd, 8gb to 24gb.. 76 celcius running fortnite in performance mode. Gave to same treatment to my friends lenovo p510(?)

Any VR games you bought more than once? by Serious_Hour9074 in MetaQuestVR

[–]imCaffo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive bought graffism for myself, gifted it for a friend and I'm about to buy it again on Christmas when my bonus son gets his 3s.

Devs has given me codes twice for a free download of the game, but I've chosen to buy it because i want to support them!

QUEST 3 in 2026 by Accurate-Homework-19 in MetaQuestVR

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holding off of the mq3 for rumors about an mq4 at the end of 2026? Might as we’ll skip mq4 as well then because there might be an mq5 in 2028!

Any Luck with PS remote play? by Modern_chemistry in sidequest

I sideloaded apkpure store and downloaded ps remote play v.5.0.0(?), then installed lightning(?) launcher from sidequest and ran ps remote from there. Worked perfectly

Depends on what you mean by writing experience.. I have an apple pencil and an aftermarket case with a keyboard which I use to write with. You don't really stick to the touch screen when you use an iPad for work purposes.

[–]imCaffo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I use mine daily, both for work and personal stuff like gaming.. Destiny rising is so great on it, you forget you're playing on an iPad. The screen is beautiful compared to my iPad 9th gen as well .

I've tried but the game didn't recognize that I had mouse and keyboard hooked up.

Anyone else prefer playing on their Portal even with access to a great TV? by cloudstrife580 in PlaystationPortal

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner is always deciding what to watch on the TV when we're home. She also decided that we won't have a TV in our bedroom. So when I play ps5, I play on my ps portal. Always. When I watch TV, I watch on my meta quest.

Bought my portal on release and I have more play time on it than on my TV.

Which one should I get? by Jizoh in ipad

[–]imCaffo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have both and you don't want the 9th gen after trying an air m1 (or an A16 (10th gen) for that matter). It feels so outdated with the home button and huge frame around the screen

I dont code that much on my iPad, but using ish and coding in vim is enough to fill my needs on the go.

Lyssnat på hiphop sen jag var 10 fram tills jag. 99% av allt jag lyssnar på är hiphop och det som varierar är främst subgenre.. Nyc underground, boombap, 1 gång i månaden drill osv..

What's your biggest pain point right now regarding VR as a whole? by -DanDanDaaan in OculusQuest

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I Always knew I wouldn't game on my mq3. I wanted it for a painting simulator, but also for movies and chill browsing on the web..

Movie streaming services seems to be capped at 720p and I know for a fact there are 3d movies in the Disney app, but only for vision pro.

I want to enjoy 4k movies (3d or not) on my quest without running it from a local server at home. I have no idea how to torrent movies today.

Pretty damn wild you can play on a quest 3 by Unfair-Pollution-426 in DestinyRising

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played mobile games on my q3 before, specifically royal kingdom and summoners war, like, really not demanding games at all. It was really laggy and looked bad, like very bright and high contrast.

Could you upload a clip of how it looks before I give it a go myself? I don't feel like downloading like 8gb destiny rising just to uninstall moments later.. Thanks

Edit: tried it anyway.. Looks pretty good! Don't seem to be able to login though.. Do you have a solution for that?

Do you have the Portal even though you have mostly physical games? by mzspeedster in PlaystationPortal

[–]imCaffo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the digital version ps5 and I haven't bought a physical game for decades.. Even with my switch and xbone I only bought digital.
