The resolution thing is actually almost solved IMO. I used my Quest 3 in AR mode almost every single day and the screens are perfectly fine for reading text or having a video on in the background.

Yeah there’s still some screen door effect but it’s really only noticeable when I look for it, it disappears in normal use.

And I genuinely can’t think of a reason you would need 1000hz displays. Human eyes start to get steady motion at like 50-60 and 90-150 is when the normal eye starts to hit the limit.

you’re a network engineer and the glasses show you on every port which device is connected

Unifi equipment already can sorta do this! The little dot pattern on the screen is an AR code and you can use the app to see this. It’s pretty cool actually. I’ve never actually used it for real work though, I just look at the dashboard on my laptop and find the port that way.

It would be really really cool to be able to just touch the physical port and be able to change the settings in real space with AR glasses though.

Tandoor also supports aliases. I have mine set up so it automatically converts units into imperial (metric) because that’s how I like it.

It just makes me laugh because they have a “!” At the end of their name. It just looks kinda goofy, kinda like when influencers have sponsored posts and they include the “™” in their copy haha

That being said, PopOS! is actually a great os.

A few years ago Walmart released a line of gaming computers and the ars technica article I saw was titled something like “Walmart released gaming computers and the prices aren’t awful”.

I copied and pasted the title verbatim and the post got downvoted a ton and all of the comments were trying to give me shit for the prices not actually being good (I feel like they were in line with normal prebuilts but oh well).

The Internet is a weird place. And to be honest, since I left reddit and have been on Lemmy I feel like people here vote with passion instead of based on the content of the post/comment a lot more than reddit. Its one of the only complaints I have so far.

First, you should probably lessen with the therapy speak. This is a personal thing but the commodification of therapy is actually a huge problem that we should talk about. But I digress.

Second, maybe clarify this up a little bit? Are these people your roommates? Your upstairs neighbor? Downstairs? Next door? I genuinely don’t know who you’re talking about.

But (I’m assuming these are your up or downstairs neighbors?) I had a buddy who was in a similar situation where even the microwave beeping would cause the upstairs neighbor to thump on the floor. He just had to complain to the apartment complex a bunch (basically every time it happened, as it happened) and eventually they got it sorted. The upstairs neighbor stopped being annoying and moved out shortly after.

In an apartment you will hear your neighbors and it’s unrealistic to expect them to be perfectly silent all the time.

Ubuntu Server supports Windows Active Directory. I haven’t used it for anything but authentication (and authentication works flawlessly) and some basic directory/share permissions but theoretically it should support group policy too.

It’d be cool if there was a mainstream FOSS alternative though (there might be, I’ve done literally 0 research), but this works okay-ish in the meantime.

But for management of the actual production servers at work I use a combination of ManageEngine (super great and reasonably priced) and Microsoft’s Entra (doesn’t work well, don’t do it)

I actually just switched my tablet from a galaxy tab S8+ to an iPad pro. I use it for work a ton too so it needed to be able to keep up with me, and the iPad is enormously better in basically every way (except side loading which I don’t do anyways) than the Galaxy tab.

Plus its not even like the Galaxy tab was cheaper. It was like $200 less than my iPad and my iPad has cellular which is incredibly nice.

Where? I haven’t heard of any rail lines that don’t have a human operator onboard or somewhere in the loop?

That’s because they’re called “teams groups” not “teams for teams” ;)

Honestly thats just a user problem, not a Teams one.

Just limit it to files and forms and stuff like that, and explain to users that the teams folders, SharePoint, and the files on their computer are all the same.

Idk I like outlook. Its more feature rich and reliable than any other client Ive used. Especially since basically every company uses Echange for email.

Edit: I should clarify, I dont like outlook overall. But thats more because email in general sucks. Outlook is the best out of all of the email clients though, especially for power users.

The only thing that’s been keeping me on OneNote is the handwriting stuff. I keep trying to move to Obsidian cause I like it but I take notes on my iPad constantly. As much or more than on my computer.

And I really like how OneNote will take my chicken scratch and use OCR to turn it into actual text.

Graphene doesn’t support any of my banking or MFA apps, at least last time I tried it.

Aren’t all Xbox games on windows now? Either through steam, the Microsoft store, or gamepass?

Oh yeah my bad, I read “lockdown” and “shutdown” lol

Your biometrics work the first time you log in after a restart? That seems insecure to me.

Lenovo sells their thinkpads with Linux too. And they’re absolute tanks.

My quest 3 is already plenty good for PCVR so it’ll have to be really good and honestly idk if I trust valve to make a really good headset. The index had really good controls but the tracking, screens, and tether were all annoying even when it launched. But the steam deck is incredible so we will see.

Plus I actually use my quest in AR mode probably more than I use it for actually playing VR games so I’m really excited to get a headset and OS built focused around AR.

I’m so stupid excited for the Samsung headset they showed off. I use my quest in XR/MR almost every single day and its so close to being really good.

I will absolutely be picking it up, and I’m willing to be a guinea pig for this
