You now are locked in a wicked battle of the wits with your own personal nemesis.

The biggest news is that Slashdot is still alive.

On BTRFS you could use deduplication to make the prefixes take up approximately no extra space. But that requires you to run a deduplication program every once in a while.

Its compression feature can also save some space and decrease load times.

But the impact of this stuff isn’t that big. Much easier to just go ext4 and be done.

No, VR works on Linux. One of the easier ways to get it running on something like Meta’s Quest 3 is Valve’s Steam Link. And older tethered headsets like Valve’s Index work as well.

And there are even open source solutions like ALVR to work with streaming headsets.

How do you get from it literally running on SteamOS to not “ready for a full OS”?

You don’t have to replace your boss. Just help them organise stuff. A healthy (in capitalist terms) company is steadily growing, making management more and more complex.

Maybe they want to get a promotion themselves. Having someone already available to pick up their responsibilities gives them better arguments for their own promotion.

Don’t agree. There is so much interesting stuff happening in astrophysics. It’s hard to choose one.

Vera Rubin going online is already giving us a huge boost to detecting near earth objects.

And neutrino astronomy is pretty much still in its infancy. There is still a lot to learn.

We’re finding older and older objects every month. A potential bio signature has been found on Mars. We discovered our third Interstellar visitor. The next stage of the moon mission is about to launch people around the moon in the next few months. The crisis in cosmology is getting bigger and bigger.

Astrophysics is in a great shape.

Have you told your boss (or his boss) that you want to lead a department? Most bosses I had would have been open to such a suggestion and worked out a path to that.

Otherwise look for a job that specifically offers a leadership position.

But it’s still a full fledged ARM computer running SteamOS including full desktop support. It’s just a matter of time until you can put a mainline Linux distribution on it and have it do whatever you want.

My guess is that Valve market it as a streaming-first device because they don’t have as many VR titles in their catalogue that can run on it as Meta has for the Quest. It’s a safer bet not to rely on devs porting their lighter games to the Frame.

And if they do not manage to get Alyx running on it comfortably nobody will blame them because they never promised it in the first place.

But it is not an exclusively tethered device. Never was. It is a full on gaming PC. Just not one with the power to run newer games. But it’s plenty powerful enough to run all of the Team Beef ports. And besides playing those and lighter flat games I will enjoy playing around with a fully functional Linux OS on a VR headset.

My guess would be a mix of embarrassment and a feeling like it’s too hard.

I just printed out paper tokens and laminated them.

Nice!

Sounds like something that would be well suited for integration into umu.

Yeah, but the Frame is one of the few headsets that will enable us to use this stuff directly on the headset.

That’s still much better than not doing any exercise.

Frick, my desire to have a Steam Frame is rising daily.

A few years ago I created a small pen & paper roleplaying game for my kids to play as dinosaurs. They very much wanted their dinosaurs to be feathered. The kids are alright.
