From what I remember reading when I was looking into this along time ago, the issue is managing to freeze and later thaw everything quickly enough so cell damage does not occur. Due to physical constraints, one can freeze a mouse or a rat k

I had absolutely no issues with hosting my own mastodon, I pay $7 dollars a month for a VPS with backups. I'm the only user that can register on my instance so it's just me. I'm `@aj@s.aj.immo` and I can follow and have conv

A couple years ago I came across a deleted Reddit comment[1] and I wished that I could read it so badly I messaged the op and asked him what he said. He didn't remember, and I was hoping so badly it would've been restored after I

I came here to mention this. I access HN via my rss feed on my iPhone and it's always a bit jarring contrasting with the rest of my themes.

This was me immediate concern when I read that paragraph. I have been closely watching this company since they first announced the headset and I really hope this isn't the beginning of the end.

Who else has used a vr headset for programming? That may be my biggest use case for this. Currently I need to deal with low fidelity headsets connected to my MacBook and it's hard to read code that I'm writing with the quest. I re
