Beatsaber and VRchat are like the two things that I most often go to VR for. Occasionally I’ll do something else like some kind of gun game like Alyx or H3VR or whatever.
What I’m looking forward to most though is all of the VR mods for pancake games that have been coming out. I have an index but its been rather cumbersome as of late to play it, and I want to do something that is more independent.
Valve can say that its supposed to be a streaming device til they’re blue in the face, and that is definitely a major selling feature for me, but what they made is a Quest competitor, and one that doesnt send excruciating details of my wife, children, pets, and home back to headquarters. It also runs Linux! You can replace that with whatever you want with the knowhow!
I will be using the frame at work in the breakroom, in the woods, and I even read someone mentioning they use theirs for like YouTube while washing dishes and stuff.
Up until now, the quest “didn’t exist” for me, so this is going to be a standalone-first device for me with a pinch of desktop streaming.
In the queue for the 1tb. My credit card is on fire!
Switchroot is a thing
It just looks like a generic SD card reader, but with a top mounted slot.
This is the correct outlook on it.
Academically, artificial neural network algorithms are cool as fuck, even given their shortcomings.
Capitalist greed has weaponized them and done horrible atrocious things to “improve” them (stealing works they have no rights to in order to profit off of them, replacing humans who want to work, ruining the arts, etc.)
We never were, considering we are literally animals.
The answer is and should always be “never” if the possibility of using FOSS is available either currently or by hard work to bring it into existence - however, there are cases where some software is not available in any other capacity and offers a service that is otherwise locked down. So we deal with the necessary evils where we must until we no longer have to.
I feel like something like the xteink would be better suited to this class of device though
Do you think it runs at 1000w continuously? On any decent GPU, the responses are nearly instantaneous to maybe a few seconds of runtime at maybe max GPU consumption.
Compare that to playing a few hours of cyberpunk 2077 with raytracing and maxed out settings at 4k.
Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot to hate about AI/LLMs, but running one locally without data harvesting engines is pretty minimal. The creation of the larger models is where the consumption primarily comes in, and then the data centers that run them are servicing millions of inquiries a minute making the concentration of consumption at a single point significantly higher (plus they retrain the model there on current and user-fed data, including prompts, whereas your computer hosting ollama would not.)
Anything generated by an LLM cannot claim copyright, per supreme court rulings. So it is critical to attribute the portions of code that cannot be licensed.
I may not be a decent person, but I do have a discord channel called The Department of Degeneracy where we post dark, spicy, and doomer memes that would make grandma gasp and clutch her pearls.
“I’ve seen what makes you people cheer, your boos mean nothing to me.”
They think they’re beyond consequences and “it can’t happen to me, I’m the main character!”
Ok thats really cool. Can we get some screenshots in the README.md though?
Can we get some screenshots uploaded to the README.md?
I’m with you on that one
This kind of pedantery is peak autism right here (hello fellow autist)
Oooh I hope they partner(ed) with Liberux Nexx, that phone looks like its going to be an excellent flagship Linux phone.
Icefrog maybe?
