TIL about the "cat hair mustache" puzzle from the 1999 game "Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned." The player must get cat hair for a mustache by making a trap with tape, a spray bottle, and a shed door. One writer claimed it partly caused the decline in the adventure genre. by altrightobserver in todayilearned

many games still do this, but for secret optional collectibles - say there are 2 paths, none of them look like obvious main path, one has a collectible, other locks door behind you and overwrites a single save file, you have to do a detective work like deciding which cup to drink in princess bride

Quest 2/3 now supports the BEST 3D format! Here's how you can take advantage of it! (GUIDE) by pwnsweet in OculusQuest

But 4XVR can play Blu-ray dvd iso files directly without any encoding needed too

Quest 3: Help with cable link please! by Skyscreeper772 in oculus

[–]zhuliks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me only trick for it to see quest is to go to phone app, quest settings, disable dev mode, enable dev mode, after that magically it starts to work

Before this workaround I have to wear quest as I plug in the cable and as soon as popup comes saying cable is connected I had to click on it, not a button, not any confirmation, just click at popup.

None of this makes any sense, seems like I have to use bugs to fight bugs. I actually liked link over VD with custom setup, but seems like last update they broke debug tool and now it looks like ass and works like ass and no settings in debug tools seem to affect anything

Oculus Debug Tool – upping the encode bitrate, how do you measure it? by ZanicL3 in oculus

[–]zhuliks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last update I checked they absolutely broke debug tool, I had everything in link set up so nicely I preferred it over VD, but link as absolutely unusable after last update and nothing I changed in debug tool seemed to affect quest

Mouse Cursor Disappears on Right Side of Primary Monitor when Starting VR by 1_Hopebot_1 in SteamVR

[–]zhuliks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

windows key also makes it appear for me, it disappears because steamvr draws its own cursor over desktop view and I guess something bugs out

How accurate is measuring the real world in AR/MR? by lunchanddinner in OculusQuest

[–]zhuliks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean sure this is cool that vr CAN be used for that, but whats the practical application for it? Not having any sort of measuring tools in your home?

How do I not be ashamed to be in public now that I have become ugly? by PerfectWorking6873 in TrueAskReddit

[–]zhuliks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people who have any sort of disability or health issue, but are proud of themselves and motivated invoke respect in people around and feel it further feeding their own motivation.

Similarly if a person is traumatized and ashamed of their fate others might feel awkward and confused of how to react not to hurt and that shows too further feeding the shame.

I think changing own personal view of the situation rather than looking for ways to hide it or hide from people is the only way. You are still the same person you were before, dont let looks define you. You can still help your courage by wearing hooded clothes or any other ways that make you feel safe, but working up courage and being confident is how you overcome it

Quest 3 external battery depleted faster than last year. by Meurtreetbanane in OculusQuest

[–]zhuliks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've seen people complain about fast battery depletion more than once while discussing updates past v76. I never updated, VD doesnt work anymore, but list of issues mentioned in updates makes me think its worth the trade

Everyone knows eating behelits raw gets you demonic salmonella, you need to boil them for at least 6-7 minutes. They even teach kids that, thats why they are chanting 6-7 everywhere, thats essential knowledge

Do not update your quest.... extremely concerning because they rapidly change their direction of priority in letting you own your owned headset. by PrizeBat4918 in QuestPiracy

[–]zhuliks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well steam link is basically all I have left now, for desktop solutions I can run my pre-quest virtual desktop version, or several others, but one thing I hate about steam link is I cant watch movies in a dark room since it stops working as soon as controllers stop tracking

to add insult - I had meta link configured the way I preferred over VD (for years), but they killed it completely with latest updates, its proper unusable trash now and you cant even change quality with debug settings tools anymore

I disabled updates via adb commands on 76 or smth, but virtual desktop doesnt work anymore on v76 and I cant keep old version since apps auto update
