Don't trust, verify. Right? Well, I have yet to verify the Jan 3 Times article really exists.

HTC (at least some of the sets) also use OpenVR. I still recommend a Vive over the new Oculus for this reason. As for linux, I don't have first hand experience with linux VR. I love linux, but I keep Windows around just for games. Since Valve is funding/developing the OpenVR initiative, most games which use it are on Steam and of those, it looks like most are Windows only.

Valve Index, Varjo, and others use Valve's OpenVR standard. Anything using OpenVR usually requires that you have Valve's tracking lighthouses which you can purchase on Steam. As for Linux, I know OpenVR is Linux compatible and some games work on Steam for Linux, but I haven't tried it. I really like what Valve is trying to do. All the hardware is mix and match. If it works on OpenVR, then you can mix and match headsets/controllers. It's modular the way hardware should be.

...and the Varjo sets are supposed to be a big step up from the Index, but I haven't tried them. They use the same open standard and tracking system the Index uses.

There is environment specific technical ability. One might be good at troubleshooting C builds and not Java. Perhaps a standard environment should be used, like a VM image, where many agree it's sufficiently configured for building a specific source language. You might find wallet devs aim to get it to build on that standard environment.

At nostr:npub1j9kttlc86w63emmldd4h74rekyqpksqup6p9trhp5gjsf374qlyszvuswx we have a difference about when to mark a wallet as "failed to build from source" aka "ftbfs".

The one position is to mark products as "ftbfs" if after spending some hour or two the build still fails.

The other position is that maybe with more effort it would not fail, so marking it "ftbfs" is more a sign of lack of knowledge and determination than a failure on part of the wallet provider.

What do you think? When should a wallet be "failed to build from source"?

FTBFS should not be dependent on lack of technical knowledge of a builder or lack of detail documentation. Perhaps it should be an aggregation of results from multiple attempts from multiple independent builders.

You have to take unspent pennies and put them into the ACH transfer where they are destroyed to create new unspent pennies. Makes more sense than how it actually works.

If the RESTRICT act passes and a "foreign adversary" relays my note, do I go to jail forever?

Depends. Is this a forever choice, or a choice for dinner? Salmon is much easier to gather.

There is a noticeable reduction in clown world exposure when I view nostr.

Apple is gonna be in big trouble with CSW.
