I’m planning on getting back into VR, and I definitely prefer having lighthouses (also linux). Is there any HMD that I should be looking at, or is the Index still a good all-rounder?
Yeah, the Index is still you're best bet unless you can afford the Bigscreen Beyond. Also, if you go with an Index, I strongly recommend you buy used or refurbished as new models are still $1000 which is not worth it anymore imo.
I think GameStop was selling them for around $600 a while back for a full kit. You could probably go cheaper on eBay or something, but there's always a higher risk factor there.
The only 3rd party I can find connected to this is Have I Been Pwned. Are they not reputable? Or is this not who you're talking about? Genuinely curious as I was thinking about trying out Mozilla.
Emu VR is a game that gives you a virtual room that you can customize like crazy. You can play all your emulated games, watch movies, listen to music, etc. It even has multiplayer! Just recently they added support for user generated content (UGC), and the community has been adding tons of stuff. Even if you don’t plan to play,...
Coincidentally, I spent about two hours last night just finding pictures I could use for posters. Then I downloaded all kinds of user made content, and haven't even gotten into doing anything with it yet. I've only actually played one game so far. Lol

A few days ago I downvoted someone's comment, and the next day I happened to notice every single comment I've ever made had at least one downvote. All from the person I dared to downvote the ONE time. I straight up asked why they did it, and they seem to think I'm an "obvious" troll account that "apparently just exist to...
True, but if they hadn't seen it was me that downvoted them in the first place, they wouldn't know who to stalk, and I wouldn't have to call anyone out at all. Really though, I can still see both sides here. I'm just bitter it happened to me. Lol
Who's freaking out my dude? My point was this wouldn't have happened if THEY didn't know who I was. You and others make some good points about some how this happens regardless, and how there are upsides to seeing who downvotes you. I honestly wasn't aware this was a common thing until now. It's why I asked if this has happened to anyone else. Chalk it up to me being a bit naive.
Fair enough. I tend to think downvotes are warranted when it's not adding anything to the conversation and/or are somewhat hostile. Not that it's worth anything at this point, but the downvote was because I literally just explained myself on the very post they were responding to. People are just putting words in my mouth at this point just because they want to disagree, and at some point it's easier to downvote that to repeat myself.
You see? That's literally not what I said. I seem to have struck a nerve with you here and I'm not sure why. But go ahead. Give me my downvote that I apparently care so much about.
That's why my price hasn't gone up yet. I guess I didn't remember it being a lifetime thing. Also, I'm not superstitious, but I'm going to go and knock on wood now.
What the actual fuck? One downvote is all it took and this dude thinks I'm a troll. (Make that two, lol) If anyone else is reading this, I'm very real and this is my main account. Lol. Jesus Christ.

Do any of you fine gentlepeople know of a good way to alert a person in VR that you want their attention?
I am trying to get back into VR. It's great cardio....
Meta Servers Broken, All Quest Headsets Unusuable (www.uploadvr.com)
This is resolved now, but it's still ridiculous this could even happen. A good reminder of how "open" the Quest line is Zuck.
What do you think about privacy services like Incogni?
I’d like to purge some of my info from the interwebs, and was considering trying one of these services. Does anyone have any experience with them?

That Portal 64 demake we liked so much has been kiboshed by Valve: 'They have asked me to take the project down,' creator says (www.pcgamer.com)
Honestly, a bit surprised by this. It wasn't even on Steam. Hopefully switching to an open source SDK will get this back up.
