Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Anyone still giving a name to your car, and what is it?
3·1 year agoMy wife names hers Otto after Otto Hightower from Fire & Blood because she has a Dodge Durango Citadel.
I like it because it sounds similar to “auto”
I got permabanned from commenting on r/insaneparents for “giving medical advice” when I was just sharing my own similar experience and saying that a good psychologist helped me put things in perspective. It was my only rule break and they didn’t respond to my messages asking for forgiveness and to be reinstated other than a threat to fully ban me if I kept contacting them… Some mods are shit.

Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft is discontinuing Windows Mixed RealityEnglish
191·2 years agoMeta has been buying up game developers so they can have a bunch of exclusives. Yes, I’m assuming that the games by the developers would have been made regardless on other platforms. That might be a big assumption given the market share of the quest.
Yes, Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft, etc anticompetitive practices are bad too. They do it to try to lock out competitors, and in doing so they decrease access to the content.
With Meta this hits already established PCVR gaming users hard as they will essentially no longer get new PCVR games if Meta keeps buying up the VR game developers. It’s not like they wouldn’t be able to support steamvr through openxr/openvr.

342·2 years agoEven then, the high end Valve offerings don’t have the content. Meta has been very anticompetitive with all the platform exclusives, and it’s hurting VR overall.

6·2 years agoNot my university. Outside of the engineering classes and prequisites for engineering classes, we only had to take rhetoric and a foreign language.
I think the method of researching and then informing the affected companies confidentially is a good way to do it but companies often ignore these findings. It has to be publicized somehow to pressure them into fixing the problem.
