Yes, because infrastructure, subsidies, education and social spending still need to happen and not paying your taxes will erode those things long before they stop a genocide. If you don’t care about getting in trouble with your government, there are more effective things that can be done.
Mind you, I’m not saying vision pro is not promising or useful. I’m saying, that in a corporate environment, it’s very hard to find a business case where you’ll be able to justify the >3500€ price tag to your manager.
The best business case I can think of right now, would be for development teams that want to get started developing VR apps. Likely that’s also what all of these companies bought one for.
But you state a lot of things as fact, so I should ask, have you used one at all?
Unfortunately I have not. It hasn’t been released where I live yet. The closest I have gotten is my Quest 3.
You dismiss “editing videos” as if that’s not an incredibly useful to be able to do that.
It is really useful. But if you’re already editing videos professionally, it needs to be an upgrade over what you’re using right now. An upgrade big enough that it makes back the cost of adjusting your workflow and the 4000€ investment.
Classical VR use cases like simulators and 3D design are better served by competitors. Most of the software runs on Windows or Linux, and you’ll likely want the most ludicrously powerful graphics card(s) you can fit into a computer, which an M3(?) chip is notably not. Also proper controllers are generally useful for professional VR applications.
But at least it’s good for productivity, right? Wrong. For productivity purposes, it’s effectively an iPad Pro with an infinitely large screen, awful battery life, that is somewhat bulky to transport and costs at least 4000$ by the time you have a keyboard and a reasonable amount of storage. And all of that for a device on which you, as of now, can effectively only write emails and edit videos on.
player_hand and dealer_hand are only [DECK_SIZE/2] in length, but in initialize_decks you write zeros into them unti [DECK_SIZE -1]. Since the arrays are located next to each other in memory you end up overwriting the deck array.
Considering MRTs use 1.5-7 Tesla, I can’t imagine microtesla will be doing anything, unless you have a piece of metal in your head. Maybe it’s an ear infection or a migraine or something like that gets worse from the cup pressure. If it’s a problem, ask a doctor.
Can someone give some context why this is so heavily downvoted? Is the content misleading, or is it just that people misread the title as anti-vegan?
My favorite VR games so far have been vertigo 1 & 2. Half-lifish shooters, but with weirder humor. I think they’re PC-VR only though.
Looks to me like they’re trying to build something like office 365, but open source. Mostly by wiring other open-source components together I think?
This is probably a better starting point, unfortunately the text is in German: https://gitlab.opencode.de/bmi/souveraener_arbeitsplatz/info
Here are some corrections:
Blockchain has nothing to do with P2P. Blockchains are federated ledgers that can’t be changed later, unless the majority of federated servers decides to. P2P means that two devices communicate without a server in the middle. Maybe you meant federated?
Blockchains can absolutely be hacked. You can gain majority control over the servers, in which case you can rewrite the blockchain as you want. Alternatively you can gain access to accounts/wallets by hacking the software that users store them in or by social-engineering people to give you their keys.
If proper end-to-end encryption is used, there is little security difference between server-based and P2P communication, but it’s much more inconvenient: You cannot save sent messages on the server for later retrieval, so if you’re trying to reach someone who’s currently offline, your device has to wait until they’re back before sending the message. Also if you use multiple devices, keeping them in sync is very complicated, because they have to be online at the same time.

That’s not something you can tell from the numbers given, because it depends on their total spending, not their losses. Maybe they spent 50B/year and made 40B/year back, leaving them with 10B in losses. I that case reducing the spending by 20% to 40B would make them even
