  • Precisely. Headsets for simracing, flight sims or any other immersive entertainment—yay! Headset for an everyday task (recipes while cooking, weather display or whatever) that could as well be solved with putting a phone or a tablet on a stand on your table—why? And it gets worse if there are multiple persons who’d want to use that information display.

    Only use case I could imagine is having a huge high res virtual screen for productivity while travelling. But the Apple Vision is way overengineered for just that. For immersive entertainment I’d rather have Varjo for the price.

    With Celsius it’s all nice and round numbers unlike the mess called fahrenheit:

    0°C—black ice, snow, be careful on the road and you probably want to wear gloves and a hat
    0…10°C—a bit chilly, but you can leave your hat home
    10…20°C—pleasant, but not quite tee-and-shorts yet
    20…30°C—nice summer weather
    30…40°C—holy crap it’s hot!
    40…50°C—are you fucking kidding me?
    50+°C—my proteins are starting to denature…
    100°C—good sauna
    110°C—finns think it’s a good sauna
    120+°C—finns think it’s getting a bit too hot in the sauna. Italians tend to vaporize in sauna (speaking from experience)

    0…-10°C—a pleasant winter weather
    -10…-20°C—getting a bit frosty
    -20…-30°C—finns think it’s a pleasant winter weather
    -40°C—vodka freezes. Russians and finns agree it’s getting a bit frosty
    -50°C—getting a little hard to start your Uazik in the morning in Siberia due to engine oil solidifying
    -60°C—researchers in Antarctica all agree it’s getting a bit frosty and someone should close the window

    Set up Tailscale as exit node to your local network.

    Make sure that your network is not standard 192.168.0.x or 192.168.1.x IP address range, but something like 192.168.101.x so you don’t have IP conflicts when accessing from a friend’s house or workplace wifi.

    Set up Nginx to redirect your home server IP (eg. 192.168.101.5) to the correct port for your dashboard like Heimdall or Dashy.

    That’s it. Works like a charm for me if set up this way.

    Addendum: if you have trouble on Android, disable MagicDNS.




  • Control. Liked it despite being in 3rd person view up until the mezzanine fight an hour or two in, then realized that the enemies are just dumb high DPS bullet sponges, the PC is a low DPS squishy and fighting from a cover or any other tactical approach I’m used to doesn’t work.

    EDIT: There was also a spellcrafting mod for Skyrim where the endboss was immunebto all magic and would teleport away as soon as you got too close while summoning a bazillion powerful minions. At level 50…60 it was litwrally impossible to figjt the bastard. After many tries I just console killed the bugger and was done with it.



  • family is everything, child need them

    My favourite part is when the conservatives start talking about all children absolutely needing mother and father. Not just parents, not a parent, not a family; mother and father specifically. Yeah, sure, now what about the millions of single parents? Shall we start forcefully assigning a new spouse of opposite sex to them the day after their current spouse dies, divorces (if we keep that as an option, that is), runs away or whatever? All pregnant people who are not in a relationship are immediately married off to a random person of opposite sex? No opt-out. Because think of the children!
