Titanfall 2 VR is a thing now, and I got it working on Linux. Everyday I am trapped staring at my VR headset like:

My hip-tracker malfunctions so often that I decided to make light of it by giving it sound effects whenever it happens. #VR #Resonite

Shoutout to Vivaldi for natively supporting custom CSS. Been on a customization spree and throwing some fonts and small visual changes onto my browser has been a delight. Especially after the recent design refresh, I've been altering little things to make my browser feel more visually consistent.

A zoomed in screenshot of Vivaldi Browser's web panel UI. The primary alterations appear to be the toolbar button being more visually distinct, the fonts being modified to improve legibility, and additional padding on elements like text to feel more visually comfortable.

Long due update; Repasted it myself with some PTM7950 and it's been consistently ~12℃ cooler than before. It also seems that it improved the stability since I haven't had any driver timeouts or black-screens in a long while. While I'm happy with the win, I'm more happy that I didn't damage it lol.

Windows 11 has this awesome feature where it just says "no" randomly

Oh I've also gotta present this diabolical EQ preset I crafted to silence the high-pitched buzzing my headset emits when my external battery is plugged in. I probably should just get a battery better suited for the power the Quest 3 requires, but still, would absolutely love to get away from this;

It feels very rushed too. Like, why is there two search buttons on the side column? Why does the sticker picker bring the app to a crawl? Why does the whole app randomly think the keyboard is open and shift everything around? The iOS app always felt a bit broken, but this patch seems to amplify it.

Screenshot of the Telegram iOS app taken from an M4 iPad Pro, showcasing the application presenting two search buttons to the user. The first search bar at the top of the screen didn't even adopt the Liquid Glass design yet, which further adds to the feeling of design inconsistencies.

Another screenshot of the Telegram iOS app taken on an M4 iPad Pro, showing the application randomly being split in half and creating an awkward looking gap from where the keyboard once was.

Reminder to head to your Language settings and turn everything off there. It'll allow you to discover posts and creatives who speak other languages outside the Following feed. I already did this about a year ago, but it magically toggled English-only again. Go check on your language toggles.

For anyone else having this issue, force-quit FL Studio and unplug any midi-controllers or devices you have connected. DO NOT unplug anything while FL Studio is open and frozen on startup, you will instantly experience a BSOD. Apparently something super low-level is breaking and causing this bug. 👍

Tip for those who use a billion overlay / SteamVR addons [me] — If you don't wanna spam your friends Steam notifications every single time you enter VR, start setting some of your SteamVR accessory apps to Private and no one will ever have to get spammed again~

On my other sets of headphones yes, but my main pair is an SHP-9500 and I tend to boost the low end just a bit to compensate with the sub-bass loss when listening. I also have this cursed equalizer to help when mastering, just so I can catch myself when I oversaturate the bass in my own music.

This dragon slips into said soul-space, and becomes a servant to a rare draconic entity to become something greater.

Somehow, Android 15 in the midst of trying to fix bugs related to Dark Theme repeatedly toggling off when you manually enable it, now managed to create a new bug where the schedule feature is just totally broken. I can only change it manually now. Thanks, Google. #teampixel #android15

The SteamVR community discussions forum is probably the messiest and disorganized online forum I've ever seen.

SteamVR General Discussions: One user created a thread with the title "r y s t", and the rest of the post reads "eageg". One user replies saying "cool". There are no other comments. Just a random user smashing their keyboard.

Y'all should come check out my world in #Resonite! - It's called "Essentially a Forest" and it's pretty, optimised, and most importantly cozy. Private Session or not, I'd recommend giving it a peep and sharing your feedback 🧡 #VR #SocialVR

A virtual photo taken in Resonite, the environment is a vast forest with a light fog. The sun is setting and the world is covered in a pretty orange hue. A creature lurks in the corner, pointing behind their back while their mouth is open from excitement.
