Keep bickering ya’ll ; it’s all better for us people who want to get work done. Apple made it more serious and even shows they actually support some of the Vision of Zuck. Let all big corps come in and compete for whatever their vision is.
I just want holodeck hardware and software with weeklong battery life. This is getting is closer.
One of the things that the Apple announcement will do; because it supports all iOS games and apps, meta (and other android eco system vendors) cannot not offer that. Things are going well. More competition please!
- abc_lisper 3y agoYeah, In Apple's vision, FB/Social is still just an app. For FB, social is the world. Like a matrix transposed. Still Apple can do all FB wants to do.
- Rebelgecko 3y agoAre the iOS games just in pancake mode, or are they doing something clever to make them 3D?
- anonzzzies 3y agoSeems pancake but you can place them anywhere in ‘space’. As I use VR/AR only for productivity (more/bigger monitors, less irl space), I would really like to have all android apps from the play store hanging in AR/VR space as pancake ‘screens’ I can organise. Now that Apple announced support for all iOS apps and games, I cannot see the rest being able to just sit and not follow for android.
- doctoboggan 3y agoI don't know much about the apple metal stack, but theoretically all you have to do is duplicate and offset the camera and render twice.
- anonzzzies 3y agoAt least Apple proves it’s possible To expose all their apps just as is; they have been saying in Quest forums for years this is ‘impossible’ and the app has to be tailored for it, even just as a flat screen hanging in VR. Impossible, or couldn’t be asked? The latter surely?
- zacte 3y agoI think it's a good idea letting people get used to 2D apps in VR. Apple could've done more to first party apps to use their 3D space because they clearly showed us it works with the butterfly, dinosaur bit. I guess it depends on the developers now?
- germinalphrase 3y agoSo I’ll finally be able to play Civ as a tabletop game?
- baby 3y agoI played Catan in VR, AMA
- activiation 3y ago> I just want holodeck hardware and software with weeklong battery life. This is getting is closer. I thought the battery last only about 2 hours
- anonzzzies 3y agoYes, but more companies competing makes that better.
