Lemmy doesn't seem to have any popular woodworking subreddits, so I thought I'd post here. Just deleted my reddit account and want to contribute some content here!
The Apple headset does look a lot more lightweight and comfortable than most of what we have today - but even then, I just don't see it.
Even if they got it down to the weight and bulk of actual ski goggles, that wouldn't actually be comfortable for long sessions compared to sitting at a computer or watching TV (or even using a smart phone)
And ultimately you have to ask what the actual benefit is. The VR/AR industry seems (baffingly) to be moving away from games and towards social/business use cases (the Apple headset baffingly seems to be mosty selling itself as a laptop replacement). Everything we saw them doing with the Apple headset in the demo would be more comfortable and easier to do via more traditional mediums.
And don't even get me started on Meta who wants us to start working and shopping in VR...
VR has amazing potential for games, but it seems like just when we started to realize that potential with HL:A, the industry just gave up on it. Now-a-days, all the new titles are arcade games optimized for the quest, and hardware developers seem hell-bent on selling these headsets for everything except games.
I could see wanting something like what the Google Glass was supposed to be as a "wear everywhere" headset, but even then it'd be a niche thing for tech enthusiasts
Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it...
I like the desktop app, and the community - but the content is still a bit sparse. The nice thing about reddit was that you could find content for literally anything and every time you refreshed there'd be new content to view. It's obviously not nearly so busy here, but hopefully that will improve with time.
In the meantime I've been juggling this and Mastadon to get my fix lol
If you're feeling overwhelmed, turn off biters. Honestly - I don't feel like they add much to the game in the first place other than an excuse to build weapons and walls
Once biters are off, there's no pressure - just take your time and tackle one step at a time. Don't worry about creating the most optimized farm humanly possible - embrace the spaghetti! It's part of the fun!
When you find that you need a new resource - just treat it as it's own separate project. Just like in real life, complex tasks get a lot less stressful when you treat them as a collection of small, simple tasks
A Marimba I built last year - took me a bit over half a year to complete. 61 keys made of Padauk, all hand-tuned, on a frame of Red Oak and Walnut (lemmy.ml)

Do People Actually Want to Wear a Headset All the Time? (www.wired.com)

How do you not get overwhelmed?
I love how in rimworld the prawns do their thing. Running around with the main character is taxing. How do you not get stressed?
