As much as i love the powerposters keeping this place alive. I also wanna know whats going on a personal level with my fellow lemmings?

What do you play? What hardware do you use? Anything interesting involving software?

This place needs some involvement besides snarky comments on the newest bullshit our tech overlords try to pull.

Like i distro-hopped to cachyOS and i’m amazed how well VR works on Linux compared to half a year ago.

But this post isnt about linux. Just something i(!) experience right now. Gimme your best Windows VR Games. Who cares. Make this community about ourselves!

    I originally got it because of the displayport passthrough, I had heard that one needed a pretty good wifi setup for wireless vr linking and that it tended to have lower quality, though that might be out of date, idk. That’s also why I’ve been using it through windows, as while I know a project that would let one use pico headsets on Linux exists, I don’t know of it supporting that feature, and the normal pico link app to use that isn’t something that wine seems to work on, at least from when I last tried it.

      @CarbonIceDragon Is it possible to run android application while DP is connected? If so, it may send streaming data to PC via wifi or usb.But i do not know how neo3 dp is implemented. Anyway it should be possible to capture usb messages under windows and implement driver for linux

        I’m not sure to be honest, I’ve literally only ever used the thing for wired pcvr, I’ve not touched the standalone android stuff the headset has on account of all the games I’ve wanted to run being pc based or at least running better on it. I wouldn’t be surprised of it is possible to create a Linux driver for that feature, but I have nothing even close to the knowledge and skillset, my computer skills aren’t too impressive by Lemmy standards I’d imagine and just installing and using Linux for most things has been taxing on them at times.
