We have tried a few. Been looking for more options where multiple people can play with one in VR; Panoptic is that. Lots of these are older titles for the ~2018 era of VR though (makes it easier to run them though lol).

View of "box art" of 6 games, in this order: Panoptic, Fruit Ninja VR 2, Subside, Alyx, Tilt Brush, and Boneworks.

It's been a lot of fun so far. It is "blowing up [my kids] mind". Certainly don't regret it!

Well, got lucky with the wait-list lottery, and pulled the trigger. The steam frame isn't perfect and a bit pricey in this current market. It checks enough of the boxes though for what I've been waiting for for more than a decade now 😅

A steam frame sitting in the box that is newly opened. It is a new to the market virtual reality (VR) headset released by Valve.

This is such a strong comparison.

this is the kind of design costume designers make to tell you who are the bad guys in a space movie

I get the feeling they are trying to emulate what Arc was after.

This is probably my favorite way to make mushrooms. They don't seem to really burn if they are fresh. I cut them up pretty small, let them cook until there is no liquid left then add a bit of rice wine vinegar. They soak it right up, and even if they are in a sauce you get little pops of vinegar.

Ooof! I actually had the opposite experience today. Swapped a bunch of records to switch hosts, and everything just worked. Spent the rest of the day checking stuff because I expected something broken somewhere.

Not directly. I have been in e18e discord for ages though so I knew everything I wanted to swap. Finding the time was the biggest issue!

Honestly all these things. The only thing saving me from getting it is just too much. I've been watching it since it was announced, but I still have a nice PC and tech prices are bonkers. Figure I'll hold out for the frame if anything.

Given the feedback, we decided to move forward and start verifying maintainers and projects in the npm ecosystem. Later on, large ecosystem projects could also become verifiers for their communities. Reach out if you're interested in these conversations! Here are the first 100+ verifications 🩷

Feel this! And I didn't realize which it was until like 4pm either. "Why did I eat so late....? oh."

Jacob Bolda @jacobbolda.com · 24/05/2026

Ohh yea that makes sense. So even if you were smart about handling it before, this step would break that 🫠

Jacob Bolda @jacobbolda.com · 23/05/2026

I presumed you could queue up a bunch of these for approval, right? With covector, we were sequentially publishing considering that, and I presumed you could push a bunch for approval. Might need a dirty publish, but would be fine in this context.

120

Jacob Bolda @jacobbolda.com · 23/05/2026

Or both, as in each in a different context, but not part of the same releases? Heh, that sounds kind of awful for a big monorepo publish.

120

Jacob Bolda @jacobbolda.com · 23/05/2026

Wow that was fast! I assume this will work in covector, but haven't had a chance to test it yet. Either way, love to see all the options crop up for this!
