  • Ah, right, I can buy a mini keyboard with a touchpad! Looks like just what I need, thank you a lot!

  • I don't think it's technically possible. But I think there are instances that mirror specific subreddits via bots.

  • Love the drawing style!

  • This guy makes great romhacks!

  • We are not all like this. I think this meme is stupid too.

  • All the mentioned repositories are located at https://github.com/projectharmonia. The game repository with my previous attempt is at https://github.com/projectharmonia/project_harmonia, which I plan to move to a separate archived branch since I'll start from scratch. As I mentioned in the post, I'm currently finishing the remaining work on the crates I'll need for the game while waiting for Bevy 0.17 🙂 The name "Project Harmonia" was just a placeholder; I'll be renaming both the game repository and the organization to "Simgine" today.

    Yes, being able to work on it full time would be a dream! Right now, I work on it in my free time after my full-time job, but I want to write an MVP first before considering any fundraising.

  • Yeah, I'll definitely try to scale it down as much as possible!

    Right now I considering using a mesh with morphs just to provide a proper API for character customization. I don't expect this particular part to be that hard. The mentioned MakeHuman is FOSS, so I could use it as a reference.

    I also don’t think it will be incredibly generic. It'll be focused on life simulation, so it wouldn’t be a good choice for something like an RPG. This lets me scale the project down even further — and a narrower API will be simpler as well.

  • Thanks for the honest opinion!

  • Thanks!

    Yes, I'll definitely maintain a few mods. Not only are they useful as references, but actually using the API helps me improve it. I'm planning to use free models because I need to test things like clothing and morphing. Plus, the showcases look better this way 🙂

  • I think the glasses are quite solid, but I haven’t dropped them yet 🙂

    I never buy additional warranties.

  • how do you change its settings, like the aspect ratio, the dimming or the distance?

    They have an OSD like in a regular monitor. You press the mode switch button twice to bring it and navigate using the +- brigness buttons. For dimming you hold the brightness rocker to start adjusting the dimming. For everything else there is an OSD menu like in a regular monitor. You bring it by double pressing the switch button and navigate with the brightness buttons.

    how does it know where is forward in anchor mode? if you are sitting in a vehicle that is turning, can you keep it using as if nothing has happened?

    It's only 3 DoF without the eye add-on, so when you move, the monitor moves with you.

    how do you do chores with it? I mean, what do you connect it to, and where do you place it so that it’s not in the way?

    I just connect it to my Retroid Pocket Flip and put it into my pocket. Then I just enable side mode in the glasses, so it displays the image in the corner. And use my 8BitDo to navigate in the device.

    what do you do to not get tangled in the cable, and to not get stuck on something?

    The default cable is just very short :) It's a distance from the glasses to my pocket with about extra 15-20 cm.

  • But it's not VR. It's basically an OLED monitor in front of my eyes. I can't say it's healthy, but I wouldn't say it's that bad.

  • I'm curious how public ownership is managed. Do they also have people in charge, but they can be elected? And what motivates their decisions?

    From what I understand, with private ownership there are directors who make decisions based on profit motives. Which doesn’t always align with what consumers want. Which is bad, of course.

  • How publicly owned differs from privately owned? I assume there are no person who collects the profit, is it correct?

  • Also AFAIK there are vacuums with only Bluetooth connectivity to configure them from a phone, with no Wi-Fi and cloud bullshit.

    Thanks, I will take a look! But I think it's stills requires using a proprietary app for a phone, right? What I liked about Valetudo is they provide their own app.

  • Sorry, never owned it.

    But if you are looking at a GNU/Linux device, I'd suggest to pick something supported by community distributions, such as Knulli or Rocknix.

  • I think it's a panel from some phone that is no longer manufactured. But can confirm, it's gorgeous (they use the same screen on RP Flip 2).

  • Same! Never posted or commented much on Reddit before, but now I post small reviews on stuff I own and announce libraries I make for Bevy. It's not much, but it's something :)

  • Yes!

    Unfortunately, audio through the 3.5mm jack only works if you power on the console with headphones already plugged in.

    Also, the setup is opinionated. For example, it stores save games alongside ROMs, while I use the default emulation directories on my PC. This makes syncing saves more difficult and it's not something you can disable in the emulator setting, they hardcode these directories via scrips.

    Lastly, the idle battery life is significantly worse, which matters to me since I prefer to put the device to sleep.
