Do they have a trade-in program like Apple does for the iPhone/MacBook?
New $1k phone, but trade your old one in for $500... not as bad.
I doubt there's a market for a bunch of used/refurbished Meta Quest 2s though...

#192What's the Linux story around Quest these days? I want to buy a VR headset but Linux compat is a must. Any recommendations?

#193So what’s the killer app? Beatsaber and some other games can be a lot of fun, but they’re not new. What new experience are ready for this? I get the quality is better, and that’s not nothing. But other than that this largely seems like more of the same. VR still doesn’t seem to have advanced much in software to me. And Meta keeps pushing virtual meetings and such but that’s not my cup of tea. I owned a Quest 2 and ha…

Let's put our imaginations together. What use case for VR do we all wish we could see/can we think of that we don't see yet?

For the price i would consider it as an alternative to buying a new PC screen. If it allows that.
There's no way you wouldn't have a massive headache wearing that 8-12 hours a day?

#195Counter-intuitively, I think I'd be able to manage a headset better if it wasn't this box strapped to the front of my face, but rather an evenly balanced hockey helmet with a flip-up mask. I can do hours wearing a hockey helmet, but these things are uncomfortable after a little while, and I think it's because it's just a more balanced thing that my neck muscles aren't constantly counteracting. Not to suggest that tha…
This fixed the balance thing for me: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09JNR4Y15/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b...

#197This was the announcement I was really waiting for, but I actually got blown away more by the AI stuff
Re: Meta Quest 3
#198I have a Quest2 that only used for about 1 hour, is there any resale value or trade-in somewhere? it's collecting dust these two years, supposed to be a Christmas gift, did not work out at all.
Mine was sold within a few hours of listing it on FB Marketplace.

#199This seems like on paper it is quite close to the Apple Vision Pro. The performance per watt of the chips is probably not far off and both devices deal with the same basic design constraints of needing to fit comfortably on your head. The main difference seems to be the micro OLED and eye tracking on the Vision Pro vs. the Quest’s inclusion of controllers. I’ll be curious how these two devices stack up to each other…
I'm sorry, but what about the Quest 3 on paper seems to you to be close to the Vision Pro?
Vision pro is all about mixed reality. So is the quest 3. As far as I can tell most of the difference between 2 and 3 is the vastly improved mixed reality. Basically this device is positioning itself to be the consumer version of the vision pro.

Just enable the annoyance lists in uBlock Origin and stop rejecting/accepting cookies like a modern person :)
I've had UBO for years without enabled annoyance lists (great naming BTW) and WOW, just WOW, after enabling them the internet seems like a completely different place. Thx!
Personally I discovered them a week ago myself, so I'm happy to spread this new experience to others :)
