It's a pretty weird subject: the document that has been mentioned in the press about that requirement doesn't exactly say that Google app are required, it says that when you do an "Android" it must always comply to Andro

I don't really know how CPUID works, but I'm guessing it can be trapped by Linux. So I think that a first "stupid" implementation would be for Linux to report in CPUID intersecting section of CPUs on which the process is

Yup I completely agree with you. Quest 2 is an awesome game console because of the immersion. I expect AR to be as gimmick as it has been on smartphones (though I'll probably find a game or two that will be fun for few hours), but pass
