  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Steam just made a big step forward with steam link, but previously the headset manufacturers were releasing Windows only link software.

    Also there are now open source solutions like ALVR.... But like most FOSS it can require some know how.

    (Or maybe he meant Meta is getting all his data anyways, why be picky)

    The Valve Index technically has Linux drivers but they're kind of buggy and difficult to troubleshoot

    Unless my info is out of date that VR steam link still doesn't work with Linux, it's Valve so it's a matter of time, but still...

    You're right. Steam link exists for Linux but doesn't connect to the new VR app. I agree valve likely has every intention of tapping this market soon though

    She doesn't have a quest actually, I have a hp reverb g2, which connects to steam vr through the windows MR software. So no matter how compatible stream vr gets with Linux I still need to have the wmr stuff available.

    Also I have a phone, so yeah everyone does have all my data despite my best efforts.
