I had to do a double take to make sure that wasn’t the space I thought it was :sweatblob:.

I guess it doesn’t run on the GPU tho. Huh.

Isn’t steam audio a spatializer? At the most basic level. Even without the effects not yet active?

This one still works for me on my Mac: github.com/r3ferrei/tidal… I have an active Tidal account tho, dunno if that changes things.

I assume it’s just that the volume of people actually communicating in public has increased. (Through normalization, ease of access, centralization, etc.) At least I hope that’s the reason. 😔

They went and removed “scheduled” eventually after all the clowning. 🤭

You should hit up Bigscreen for help. That’s a bummer to hear it died.

Their initiative is simply unworkable, uninformed and doomed to failure - but to say that makes you anti-consumer, hates games, a corporate shill. It's gonna fail but no matter... can't point out these things. Makes me bummed the living computer museum wasn't better supported... than this crap.

I guess this is the upper limit for VR headset prices.

It was definitely more fun when it was a series of companies/platforms trying to one-up each other during the week. :F: geoff’s enthusiasm doesn’t work for me anymore. Not in this new structure.

It seems like “slop” should be in the running for word of the year this year.

I have not run into that yet. But I see how it could manifest. I also see how it could manifest here just as easily. Remember that Bluesky will have federation too, supposedly, at least someday.

This is too real. My Index has been uncomfortable since the day I put it on in 2019. I miss my CV1. The Beyond can’t get here fast enough.

I just talked to some Japanese VRChat users about the great pug for the first time. It was weird and awkward. 🫨

It’s too bad diaspora was already taken as a social network name. It woulda been better applied to recent events.
