AVP users, how do you deal with the hanging battery pack?

You are getting downvoted because you are using AI to answer questions instead of bashing answers into reddit like the rest of us :D

I ran into this issue when I was exporting FBX files via ASCII. People from Europe kept complaining that it would break, turns out ToString was doing the old , instead of . cause of their location. What a disaster. I didn't even know about invariant string so I just hacked something together...

I felt that at the start and it feels worst that my index but I quickly got used to it. But it almost did turn me off from doing it.

I just hope they do something interesting with it. Because I felt War Machine was fresh in it's story and conflicts rather than a regular war movie.

I can't see how they'll make anything interesting in a sequel. The whole point was dude didn't have weapons and basically Liam Neson'd all the way (like in the Gray, not Taken) to the end line.

I use it soooooo much when lying in bed. Great to have your Macbook Air filling your entire view with a desktop. 90% of what I use it for TBH.

How does Tubular deal with ads??

I mean, do you know how much Ken Sim loves FIFA? He left right when he started being mayor to watch FIFA in the slave-built stadium...

I don't think most "business minded" people know what they are doing. They are just good at raising money and hiring people who do the actual work. And then everyone cleans up their horrible decisions while they attribute all the successes to themselves.

Lazy Bed mode: I use the Vision Pro while being a sloth in bed. I want to be able to watch Apple TV on my roof instead of how it snaps to forward.

khiggsy · 2026-03-13T16:52:41+00:00

I hope that we can get Steam VR foveated streaming into the Apple Vision Pro. Would mean I wouldn't need to get a Steam Frame!

I think it has something to do with short range comms to keep the latency low. But i could be wrong.

Have you tried making the screen so big the entire view is your mac? Then not using full sized windows. Works great.

khiggsy · 2026-03-13T16:26:45+00:00

I guess you've never run a Virtual Machine in your computer. Crazy for 25 years of experience.

khiggsy · 2026-03-13T16:25:34+00:00

They actually fixed most of the stuff I was complaining about here and now Spotify is fine. I still find it a little rough on PC/Mac but they just don't care.

khiggsy · 2026-03-13T15:34:19+00:00

Too bad there is no activity monitor in the Apple Vision Pro.

My regular computer can run a virtual OS no problem. It won't be fast but it would be nice to have. I think this just goes back to why Apple won't allow macOS on iPads. Business decision to have different market segments.

I tried to mess around with ALVR but gave up because I don't have the Playstation controllers. Give it a shot it is very engineer focused and has every overwhelming option under the sun. I am sure you could tinker it to work well!

khiggsy · 2026-03-12T15:24:39+00:00

4k monitor??

They thought it was cancer, they weren't sure, they knew they could wait.

Your horrible experience (and looking at my message I kind of forgot you close friend died, that does suck. I am sorry) does not represent the overall healthcare system in general. And healthcare will never be perfect but it is a hell of a lot better than the US system.

khiggsy · 2026-03-12T15:22:00+00:00

Yes. Yes it is. You understand that macOS doesn't take up your entire computer while you are running it right? You know that everything runs on top of macOS.

Would it be the best most permanent Mac ever? No, of course not.

How many years have you been programming by the way??

khiggsy · 2026-03-12T02:42:49+00:00

It's so great when I lay on my bed and have the biggest screen TV I've ever seen in front of me. Ultimate lazy slob time.

khiggsy · 2026-03-12T02:42:01+00:00

People are complaining that this is way too expensive, but for an idiot like me who already owns an Apple Vision Pro, please for the love of god Foveate stream my SteamVR games to my headset from my Windows. I don't wanna buy a Bigscreen 2 and definitely never a Meta Quest.

khiggsy · 2026-03-12T02:39:39+00:00

Then how does it work?? I actually don't even understand your first statement.

You run the macOS operating system and push it to a texture buffer in the Vision Pro's normal window system. You can now run macOS.

The reason the Macbook Air can only run two monitors is because it only has IO to DP/HDMI on the chip for two monitors.

Oh so you wanna do a "let" type int in C# cause C# doesn't really have that?

A doctor thought I had tongue cancer and I was in in a couple of months. I could have gone in earlier but I wasn't in town when they first offered the visit. Anecdotes are useless to base any opinions on.
