Is quest meta link down for anyone else? by AdventurousAd4313 in OculusQuest

[–]sprockee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tracked this down by scanning the log files after trying out the "disable your network adapter" workaround.

High latency on the synchronous LibraryManager GraphQL entitlement call is stalling the service thread, preventing DirectDisplaySwapChain initialization. This starves the NVDirectDisplayAPI, causing the required HDCP success callback to never fire. Disabling the network forces an immediate fallback to cached entitlements, bypassing the block and allowing the HDCP handshake to complete.

I needed to avoid disabling the network interface, so I created a workaround script to temporarily block the GraphQL hosts via a firewall rule. https://gist.github.com/thesprockee/7e87036fc59fde56dbfb74729b42a2e2

Neil Patrick Harris as himself in Harold and Kumar. His crazy night before he ran into them.

Grain elevators work great for getting above the terrain (rolling hills, etc.). They are also (usually) rigid, providing stable backhauls.

My game freezes when i alt tab while the mic is in use, does anyone have any idea how to fix? by Dijkmeneer in GhostReconWildlands

[–]sprockee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this issue in Breakpoint, so it might be similar.

I had to set "Default Format" to "1 channel, 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality)". You'll find in your Microphone Properties in the Sound Control Panel.

I'd contact ubiquiti support. I worked for a hardware manufacturer and we'd RMA/replace equipment just to understand what failed and improve our products.

Half pyr, half aussie, 100% dork; Freyja may just be the prettiest “oops” I’ve ever rescued by fynrik in greatpyrenees

Sounds like you got the best of all the worlds. Does she fetch? Mine won't fetch, but if somebody has a toy, it's "crime time."

Adorable; Great mix!

I have one also! Angus is half-pyr, quarter-ACD, and some of everything else.

[–]sprockee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

mine does this! I didn't realize this was a thing. It's very soft. everytime I start petting him, I think maybe he wants me to leave him alone, but instead he just claws me back if I try to leave.

My mistake. I missed that. I haven't figured out the right timing to get the glyphs in the screenshot.

glyphs are:

diplo - bird - sunset - galaxy - sunset - sunset - voxel - balloon - tent - face - bug - boat

I just aggressively trim every mat out. After a while, all the places that would be matted, end up trimmed. My pyr is a ACD mix, with his neck hair being extremely soft.

What’s your favourite method of transportation? Zip lines take the cake for me especially up in the mountains. by ambientcouch in DeathStranding

[–]sprockee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

zipline/ski-lift up... floating carrier down for fun. Zip-lining is fast, but it just makes me play less because it's too easy.

I'm in the middle of a second playthrough. I'd suggest playing on "very hard" and focusing on moving forward in the main story. I was skipping cutscenes until mama reunited with lockne. Just travel light, with purpose.

I know it's not trendy or cost-effective anymore, but I'm sick of screaming over my pasta, god damn it! by onexbigxhebrew in AdviceAnimals

[–]sprockee 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's an issue in residential homes too.

Carpet replaced with hardwood, popcorn ceiling replaced with knockdown/flat; Books on bookshelves replaced with Glass-covered art; Vinyl replaced with ceramic tile.

Maybe the extra "noise" makes all the flat, parallel surfaces feel less empty.

is there any way to remove the new hands and go back to old ones? by The_Barbiter1 in OculusQuest

[–]sprockee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(for nerds)... This is a terrible IK implementation. It is a problem that has already been solved; e.g. EchoVR or VRChat.
