This is all accurate. The comment in this article is specifically about the top 10 AI companies, so the usual big tech stocks. I'm no expert, but I can understand how a stock gaining $277 billion in a single day can be concerning from

I don't see much difference in the current version, and the anonymized data that you can't opt out of seems mostly to do with crash reports. It's laid out in this article, and although I'd prefer a full off option, it&#x

In previous versions, the features that were disabled had to do mostly with disabling multiplayer coordination if you choose not to share precise location information, in other words, just the things that would need that data to function. M

Apparently people using old Oculus accounts are exempt. The strange thing here is the apparent lack of ability to opt out. It's pretty standard practice among data collection devices to at least have an option to turn it off, and since

It's actually much older, the 700 series from 2013 were the last to ship without signed firmware. 2013 also happened to be the year of the last AMD CPUs without the PSP, so my all-free software computer is still stuck in that year unti

Real-time generated because it will respond to the players to feel more alive. Worlds right now are mostly static. Imagine Star Citizen but you don't have to wait for decades for it to be developed because the galaxy creates itself as

The worlds themselves don't need to be generated on-device, just rendered there (even as a video stream.) The AIs that will build virtual worlds will live in datacenters and stream to headsets. Local AI will likely focus on predicting

I did it! You I am bleeding. What should I do? GOODY-2 Advising on medical conditions could be interpreted as providing medical advice, potentially resulting in harm if not given by a qualified healthcare professional, and may lead to liabi

I would just like to see people copy some of Apple's UI functionality inside Quest apps. The official YouTube app can do the standard flat panels that any Quest app can do, but it's limited to living inside the 1x3 app row that al

It's not meant for MR like this. An immersive app for YouTube that let you have a window management experiece closer to the Vision Pro would be welcome.

This looks beautiful. I think Alphabet just won a more premium app than they might have made by choosing not to play. I hope a Quest port might happen someday.

You do have to sideload, and that will turn off plenty of people, but probably not most of the people here. It's just a matter of following the instructions on the Sidequest website. For my use, just putting F-Droid on it gives me acce

I respect that point of view, but Meta has over 3 billion monthly active users. This is a large enough potential customer base for any product. I also find the privacy options on the Quest perfectly adequate, and I'm curious if there&#

As great as the hardware seems, the Quest 3's support of basically every Android app ever made plus native apps plus PCVR apps which are free with the purchase of their native Quest counterpart makes it much more appealing to me. Now t

It’s running Windows, and if you put it in dev mode, which is not much harder than putting a laptop off S mode, you can install anything. It works with a mouse and keyboard. Pretty close to a PC.

I got my first AirPods off eBay recently that I was expecting might be fake, but they arrived new in the package with all the usual Apple paperwork and pull tabs and registered normally, even the Apple warranty, and everything seems to work

This comment is so much more informative than the article. They made a medical UX that people actually wanted to use but oversold the AI. I wonder why nobody tried to merge the front-end with a different AI, or did that fail too?

Windows is already a subscription OS, usually for businesses. Subscription licenses are included with higher Microsoft 365 tiers. It's just one of the many ways that it's sold. This doesn't indicate that the perpetual license

These are all valid points, but Stallman never said anything to defend either Epstein or his associates. I’m not advocating for Stallman’s position either by questioning if it was effective or by laying it out here, but this is the subject

I don't remember who led that effort, but Stallman's statement that Epstein's victims likely presented themselves as willing is obvious. He was pushed out for his hypothetical claim that if Minsky wasn't aware of the coe

Philosophically, it’s up for debate, but whether they’re served well isn’t as important as if they’re using the products at all. Lowering the average consumer’s waste by just a few grams a year adds up fast.

If the whole tech industry generated 50 million metric tons per year, that’s about 6 kilograms per person on the planet per year, about a watermelon, and if you consider that even half of those are served by it, it’s a manageable amount of

This sounds very appealing, but since the earliest days of Android, we've been able to set up a chroot environment and install any distro and Linux app we want. Apps like UserLAnd make this trivial. I can't think of anything I&#x2

Did anyone at Rockstar ever confirm that it was an official decision? I wonder if they did assign someone all that and they took a shortcut.

Even better, it’s the N series which is all e-cores. They’re fast enough, and there’s no worry about the p-cores wasting battery in a tablet.

That's interesting. Thanks for pointing that out! I see that anyone can opt out of the arbitration clause, and I wonder how it would play out in court if someone put a shelf or some tape in front of the camera and was charged for it. I

This isn't about being punished for not following rules or vows. According to tradition, there weren't even any rules in the beginning, but they developed in response to the growth of new recruits. This is a statement about the gr
