The website suggests there will be eye and hand tracking, but I could not find any mention of head tracking. Will the head be tracked in 3DOF or 6DOF?

To the extent that you are saying that specialized services can be built upon a generalized infrastructure and that people can benefit from that, I agree! But, the commenter I take issue with said that it's good actually that we are ju

No-one is better off concentrating power in a centralized authority with the scale and (lack of) accountability of Facebook. Specialization doesn't come into it, although it is worth observing: your comment presupposes that in order to

Sorry, but that's exactly what is wrong with the web, and what we strive to "fix" about it when we build decentralized alternatives to centralized infrastructure. It is a systemic failure that most users must "fail over&

Fun fact: after the DAO had essentially folded, the $PEOPLE token folks were left holding could be traded for more than 10X the value it cost to go in on the DAO. To this day, it still trades for ~10X its initial value on Uniswap: https:&#

I hear what you are saying. I'll offer you: people have built some great experiences with jQuery, and people have built some terrible ones with React. In the end, what makes the work product great has more to do with the team than the

Anyone who claims one language or tech stack is going to become the be-all, end-all of how we build things on the web is either naive or selling something. I've gotten a lot of mileage out of ignoring grandstanders and focusing my time

I enjoyed the rhetorical journey the author took us on, personally. I wonder if you read the whole article, since the author specifically calls out performance as one of the factors.

To me it is a canary signal that I have the option to self-host. Most likely, QoS would be better from ente's hosting and I would be inclined to take advantage of that. An open source server can be audited and offer an off-ramp should

This is neat. I love that you are fostering a publishing mindset, and not just showcasing a glitzy 3D magazine for folks to gawk at. There is a steep hill to climb before a 3D web really lands in a way that fosters an ecosystem of content c

Thanks! That is more than I expected. FWIW I tried to install Valorant in a VM recently (because I'm tired of installing the root-kit anti-cheat on my main PC in order to play it). It simply fails to launch the anti-cheat, and so doesn

Which games do you play that require anti-cheat schemes? The last time I checked, many such games explicitly do not support running in VMs and you risk being banned by obfuscating that you are running the game in a guest OS.

It is funny: there are essays in this thread, authors clearly breathless to explain the utility or lack thereof of NFTs. Yet your two sentence explanation is the most comprehensive. NFTs enable the possibility of a market that is orthogonal

This project is cool, and it is cool to have alternatives to Electron for cases that call for something like Electron. Something that is also cool is that Rust runs really well on the web (via WASM), which opens the door to building project
