Yes, early 20s. Very positive experience, in and out of the doctor’s room in under 5 minutes. Took longer to fill out the paperwork.

And it first released a decade ago already (in a couple months)

Varifocal lenses are bulkier and restrict an already limited FOV. For my part I prefer how it is now with the headset maximizing FOV and using aftermarket lens inserts for vision correction, but of course that is much easier for me since I am the only person using the headset

I have a steel one, dishwasher every couple weeks cleans it out nicely

Options are good

Using the Index, SteamVR keeps throwing a display not found error for the headset. Tracking seems to be registering but the screens remain black. I saw some people say that replacing the trident cable fixed this issue for them, but I am doubtful since it just works in Windows. I tried the stable, legacy, and beta versions of SteamVR, all to the same effect. Also tried changing the amount of displays connected and what port the headset uses. I imagine it’s some sort of display driver issue (Nobara linux, wayland on nvidia) but I have not been able to figure it out.

I can’t get SteamVR to work in Linux unfortunately, it’s the primary thing preventing me from deleting my Windows partition

Agreed, tried to use Seal just now and it would crash (audio only from youtube). YTDLnis worked perfectly on the same video

Interesting, I have been able to use it for code no problem. They even support different language types to add colors automatically.

Logseq, kept up to date on all my devices with Syncthing

I have been using Thumb Key for a few months and while I generally like it, I have not been able to figure out how to remove things like the voice typing, pasting, and undo shortcuts. Every so often I accidentally hit undo while typing, which just erases my whole message irrecoverably since my other thumb hit the next key right after. I wish I could remove all those swipe controls on the side altogether since I never use them.

It’s a pattern that will feel more natural the more you use it

Fiber to the home is pretty neat. I could actually more than double the speed to 3Gb/s symmetrical for about $14 more per month, but frankly even the current speed is way more than I need. Will probably step it down a bit when my promotional discount ends.

Forgot to mention earlier, Steam is an example of a real world situation where I do actually hit around 1.5 Gb/s down

Certainly true in regards to real life use, but it’s a good way to check that there isn’t some issue on my end that’s limiting the speed I am paying for

Unfortunately doesn’t quite reach the speeds speedtest.net can hit, but still cool to have a tool like this

If you can finish the campaign on Master, you’ll be pretty decent in multiplayer too in short order. Also can recommend Frontier Defense, it’s a multiplayer co-op mode that reinforces good multiplayer skills and allows you to get used to the maps

They may be greedy but they are not stupid. Clearly they calculated that by just ignoring the issue and eating the lawsuits, they save money compared to trying to make an actual solution (whatever that would even look like in the first place)

Headphones are great but they aren’t speakers

Having lived in both, Canadian healthcare >>> American healthcare. Walking out of a hospital after they saved your life with a bill of $0 is very nice in my experience.
