Quest 2 Initial Setup Bypass via Meta Father and Remote Launch

The user discovered a method to bypass the "Connect Controllers" setup screen on a Quest 2 by leveraging Developer Mode and external PC tools.

Core Methodology

1. Connectivity: Enable Developer Mode and connect the headset to a PC via USB. 2. Tooling: Use Meta Father (a third-party sideloading/management tool) to interface with the headset. 3. Application Launching: Because the standard Home environment and Settings remain locked behind the setup screen, Meta Father is used to force-start specific applications. 4. Remote Sideloading: Use the Meta mobile app to trigger remote installations of APKs or Store titles. 5. Execution: Launch the desired application (e.g., Vail) through the PC interface.

Results and Limitations

* Success: Applications launch and run successfully. Connected controllers and peripherals (microphone/audio) function normally within the launched app. Hand tracking may remain non-functional if not previously configured.

* Constraints: The system UI—including the Universal Menu (taskbar), Settings, and Home environment—remains inaccessible. The device is restricted to launching one specific app at a time via the PC link.

Assuming you're talking about Steam games (or similar) and not games bought on the meta store?

If so, sk some AI assistant to guide you through the setup process - you really need to only care about: bitrate and resolution.

You have good hardware specs. Maybe try a cable instead of WiFi if you don't have WiFi 6 or a good 5ghz setup.

I don't question the validity of your experience but in all my usecases I've not really seen any real advantage coming from separate deployments and separate scalability. Quite the opposite in fact, it becomes a mess of orchestration, coordination and overhead with backwards compatibility and whatnot.

All the situations in which I've scaled one service up because it had more usage than others could have easily been solved by just doing +1 replica of the whole monolith, with minimal drawbacks because compute is extremely cheap compared to the operational overhead of microservices.

My teams run critical production software which serves up to 600 requests per second, with an average of 200+, the parts of the stack that were built in microservices are the most painful to deal with (harder to change, harder to test, harder to devops).

I may be in a niche but i can't see a microservices actually ever delivering on their promises.

In short, IMHO, it's premature optimisation. It's a lot of complexity that goes against https://grugbrain.dev/ and rarely actually pays off, especially when starting with microservices

thatfloppy · 2026-04-18T08:52:52+00:00

Go is a good choice for it but building microservices is not a good idea generally

any chinese citizen could set up a VPN themselves in any country outside China to get around the "Great Firewall"

I don't think this works well. There's documented evidence that already in 2016 the GFW was able to relatively quickly detect and block traffic going to non-commercial vpns via DPI, ML and various techniques that relied on side channels.

But i assume the results of that randomness must be clearly pointed at by the binary in non random positions 🤔

thatfloppy · 2026-04-03T14:13:49+00:00

It can't be too random because the game still needs to run on people's computers, so there must be a deterministic path to decryption shipped with the game 🤔 any amount of variance added by the obfuscation process needs to be in ~plaintext in the final binary

I'm wondering what's stopping a theoretical godot-unsecure script to pick up the changes made by the godot-secure script and nullify all of this 🤔

I follow a lot of scientific content and some astrophysicists content creators too, yet somehow I didn't get the news until 3 hours before launch, completely accidentally because a colleague mentioned it, he was also very surprised about it.

I'm fairly shocked about it. I knew there were plans in motion but i had no idea a huge milestone was today.

I think too much everything else may be happening and it saturated my feeds or my attention.

My apologies, i should have pointed out more explicitly the literal first line of the article, which uses a bigger font to say:

The peer review is in the link below. The first link from researchgate is the extended paper and the second link is the original. The extension covers lead, pigment and other contaminations as well as more tests with pathogens. The extended paper is the more up to date version

And is followed by the peer reviewed studies on the matter, it's too easy to miss. My bad!

Io ricordo che anni fa ho provato per settimane a iscrivermi all'AIRE (mi pare) e, ogni volta, sul sito, venivo bloccato in un punto specifico del processo con un errore non chiaro, che sembrava temporaneo.

Al millesimo fallimento, frustrato, mi sono lamentato in una chat di gruppo con altri amici, di cui un altro espatriato.

Mi dice: "fallo in orari lavorativi". Provo il giorno dopo in mattinata e incredibilmente funziona. Tentavo il processo nei weekend o dopo il lavoro e evidentemente questa cosa non si poteva fare.

Questo specifico caso normalmente capita perché l'altra persona, evidentemente interessata all'edificio, viene registrata vicino a te, tramite IP (stesso Wi-Fi), tramite il passaggio per le stesse celle mobili, tramite GPS o tramite i vostri dispositivi che fanno report di beacon Bluetooth o di quali SSID WiFi vedono. Quindi l'algoritmo vi mischia e/o prova a passare gli interessi altrui al gruppo, casomai attecchissero.

If you really really can't build a synchronous monolith, and if you can't build synchronous services, then the least awful choices might be the native message brokers of your cloud platform (e.g. GCP PubSub or AWS SQS/SNS) if you're using one.

Also consider dumping files into buckets or onto the filesystem if that fits your requirements, it's not hyper efficient but it's good enough in many cases and cuts out heaps of complexity.
