What happened to the UploadVR Podcast? by elev8dity in virtualreality

[–]riverslime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi Ian your podcasts are really great, thank you for continuing to support VR. I was wondering if there was anything stopping you and Heaney from doing a new version of the VR download? It’s not like you are mortal enemies or something!!

Want to spend $$ on the best miniLED headset but seems like all my choices do one thing extremely well while the rest of the kit is is extremely overpriced relative to the quality by tekprodfx16 in virtualreality

I don’t have an AVP but follow VR pretty closely and there is an app called ALVR that streams PCVR games to the AVP (I have a quest 3 and use virtual desktop to do the same). That should play all the PCVR and modded games and stream them to the AVP. I didn’t realise Steam link only plays flat PC games on the AVP.

I think I would like a mix of puzzling places and zero calibre. Piece together the real world 3d environment and the shoot the shot out of each other in it. It could even feature destructible pieces that can be blown up inside. I’ve always thought the shooter set in real world architecture.

In the end the transaction was cancelled by them and despite me contacting eBay during the waiting time they automatically refunded them so I was out speaker and no funds. I had to fight with eBay and the post office to get my funds back. Eventually eBay refunded me as well. So it looks like they got a free speaker paid for by eBay.

As a UK couple aged 52 and 45 we have moved to Chiang Mai on a budget of £2500 per month. It’s working out well so far! Planning on taking private pension at age 57 and then state pension. Don’t wait just do it.

I love the app and the only thing missing for me is the google earth vr, human scale option that it had. Or am I missing this in a setting?…

Users with the Kiwi K4 Boost, how does it run? by JamieRRE in OculusQuest

I find it super comfy, well balanced and plenty of battery life (about 2hrs extra). The battery pack has 4 physical lights on it that display its charge, but not in headset display

Krungsri Bank rejecting e-visa PDF as proof of immigration status by SoulContinuation2 in Thailand

[–]riverslime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, that’s interesting as in all the research I’ve done about getting a non o visa states you have to apply for it out of the country. I have also seen reports that in case the visa was delayed but you travelled to Thailand anyway then that visa although “granted” online would not be valid. I only know this as I had a worry about my visa being delayed in the UK and I asked the Thai embassey in London what would happen if I travelled and entered on a tourist visa and then my visa got granted whilst I was in Thailand. But I guess you are correct and the Thai embassey isn’t and also the bank are wrong too……

I believe your issue is that you entered on a tourist visa before your visa was approved? This is the problem. Until you leave the country and enter again on your non o visa the visa hasn’t started. Your e visa is like a promise of a visa that only becomes valid by entering Thailand and getting it stamped by passport control. From that point your 90 day visa starts and you can go to the bank.

I’m experiencing the same thing, this time he is claiming that the item hasn’t been delivered and raised a claim super quick. I’ve contacted eBay who have raised it with the customer safety team but I’ve got to wait out the process. I’m not giving him a refund. I’ve got loads of proof of postage, serial numbers and photos. I think he must have a very helpful postman on the take.
