So how long before something like a no confidence action or something can be taken to stop this? He’s speedrunning turning the US into a madhouse and I know the VP would be next in line but… Something? Anything more legitimate than just fighting fire with fire by various groups being uncooperative?

What a circus…

I have a complicated opinion of HTC since the vive was effectively replaced by the index when Valve created their own hardware.

On one hand I feel like the vive opened a lot of accessibility to a lot of people to try VR for the first time when steam adopted it as their primary hardware.

However the vive also had it’s own janky shovelware marketplace and when the index became first party hardware I didn’t look back.

A lot of VR games stopped supporting the vive but didn’t bother to update compatability to the index, effectively making them unplayable for me without extensive workarounds (doom VR stands out to me as a game I actually enjoyed but couldn’t play natively anymore when I switched and it didn’t seem like they ever updated it, open to be corrected.)

Like the oculus, I feel like the vive played it’s part in growing the VR audience but I don’t feel any loss as things move forward.

So thank you, HTC for making VR more accessible but you’re still seem to just be a corporation uninterested in making a quality product and more about making as much money as possible at the expense of everyone.

I don’t have any faith this pairing will make anything useful, Google Glass failed, Google cardboard failed, and pairings like Rift with Meta only exacerbated locking people into it’s Facebook ecosystem.

I’ll be happy if I’m wrong but I care a lot about this tech and feel like I can see where this is going.

Had to check your stuff for a sec, poe’s law…

I hate that I can’t tell the difference between genuine bad faith sympathizers and just some good old sarcasm these days, crazy times.
