Talking to friends about joining @rek and a large portion are legitimately concerned that I'm creating the terminator.

@COBreck243 @shanselman Thanks Garrett, have been impacted by this. Note that the dropdowns on that Create support request page doesn’t allow us to pick “Windows Developer Center” under “Developer, Student, Startup programs”

@newsun1488 We don’t force updates. We don’t control that from our side. That’s a Meta issue. You can try unchecking the “Automatically update apps” checkbox in the Horizon phone app.

@yuki073 @Bizzclaw @s0rnt Not sure why you are trying to play gotcha questions with me. There’s no statement to retract; I decide what to work on based on what users request, what complexity it has and how much support it entails. If you are not happy with my decisions, well you have other free options 🤷🏼‍♂️

@VRDesktop @Bizzclaw @s0rnt あなたが「ゲーム用途ではシェアが2%程度だからサポートする必要がない」と言い出したのですよ? 発言を撤回するのですか?

@yuki073 @Bizzclaw @s0rnt for desktop use, there are a lot more macs, 25% vs 5%. It’s much easier to develop for macOS also

@Bizzclaw @s0rnt The numbers are not very different with desktops/laptops today (which are the users this app is for). It’s roughly 70% Windows, 25% macOS and 5% Linux

@VRDesktop @s0rnt You're living in the past. That post was 7 years ago, 3 years before the Steam Deck and proton revolutionized gaming and popularized linux and back then windows was still a viable operating system that wasn't filled with AI Bloat.

@s0rnt I’m just 1 person. Windows and macOS are where the majority of desktop users are today and that’s enough work as it is. Also this below:

@VRDesktop I have to ask, why is this an April Fool's joke? Winblows is just getting worse day-by-day, and Linux is advancing steadily each single day. I use Virtual Desktop with Windows myself, but I am distancing myself from VR as a whole just because I have to boot up Windows...

@JdThe65th Stride is not used on the Streamer side, it’s only used on the headset side. Streamer uses SharpDX, WPF and Windows Apis. MacOS Streamer uses Xamarin.

@VRDesktop A bit poor taste too considering VD uses Stride, an Open Source game engine, but all's well that ends well I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@HereIsAChart Depends on your processor, the compilation flags you use and how lean the kernel you end up using is. Try it and see!

@VRDesktop Could you please give an example of the performance? What kind of improvement could a user expect eg how much lower encoding ms on a typical setup with a modern Nvidia GPU?

@ABCXYBOI The app isn’t sold or supported in China because of the great firewall. It makes connectivity and support through Discord a nightmare. Once China gets internet like the rest of the world does, I will gladly sell the app there. Won’t bend over backwards otherwise.

@VRDesktop Hi,We need more mainstream languages.For example, Chinese and Spanish are needed by a considerable number of players in China.They need to use your software, but because they don't support Chinese, they buy a low-priced translation, which is piracy.

@Lunayian Sometimes picking up the headset from your desk will also trigger the “Double tap for passthrough” so you won’t see any UI and nothing will work. Only way out is to double tap again but the average user won’t know and will have to restart headset with a pwr button long press 💩

Meta needs to either remove the "Double Tap for Passthrough" feature or re-add the toggle for it. In HzOS 2.1 it doesn't even seem to work properly, ie. if you're in Loft and change to Passthrough Home via Double Tap, then start a VR app, when you quit you'll be back in Loft.

@xoofx Thanks for your outstanding work on SharpDX and Xenko btw. Wouldn’t have been able to develop my VR app and build my business without those!

@VRDesktop any chance we could get a fix for the Play For Dream bug that occurs when you enable "automatically hide controllers" it breaks the positional tracking for some reason
