The funny thing about this is that the first time I had that moment of realization was when I got the Sphero BB-8 toy from my kids for Christmas. It had a dedicated app. The reason it’s funny is because, out of all the things that I own, it’s the only app-driven one that still works. Sphero just merged it into their main app. Once that app stops getting updated, this toy will cease to work despite everything about it being functional. ☹️
There are multiple ways. Statistical significance is largely used to determine whether a sample size is representative but it’s flawed on its own for some sample sizes as small effects can get exaggerated the larger the sample gets. Look up the methods for determining effect sizes and confidence intervals to determine the best route to go to see what minimum sample size is necessary to both have high confidence in the accuracy of the hypothesis and to ensure that the results have enough statistical power to detect the effect in question.
Only in that they want to move it to a more extreme version of what they already perceive it to be. They are not looking to change it based on any meaningful measure. Nationalists are almost always conservatives.
How? That statement means nothing unless you explain it.
Patriotism and nationalism has zero place in society.
Not true. Patriotism is wanting and seeking the best for your country. Because our society relies on those physical divides, patriotism would actually improve society. Nationalism is deciding that whatever your country is doing already is the best simply by virtue of self-identification. There is no desire for improvement outside of an individual perception so it, functionally, can never offer any improvement for society.
One is potentially beneficial. The other is cancerous.
I depends on the size of the population you’re attempting to represent.
Exactly this. I would 100% buy AC: Mirage if it worked on my Apple TV natively (since you can use a controller) and Ubisoft didn’t suck a big fat donkey dick. They can go to hell with their Ubisoft Connect bullshit.
Yes, I got that. That’s why I called them “magical”. I’m pretty sure everyone knows they don’t exist. That’s the point.
Top tier response. Well done. Full marks.
I really want to know the specific “performance enhancing drugs” these people think Biden is using. No hand-waving. Be explicit and tell everyone what magical drugs these are and then let’s test them both for these drugs.
Voyager. It shows actual usernames and not display names. You’re seeing my display name, not my username.
You know… I totally forgot that I set that as my display name. No offense taken, obviously. I use a third-party Lemmy client so it never shows me that. 🤷♂️
Huh?
Used or owned? I own one and bought several for my company and they’re not useless at all. They’re just limited in the AR/VR experiences you can do right now. As a computer, productivity, and production device, it’s far from useless.
No, but it’s commercial production. We do 3D video production.
Yes and yes. Currently I use Moon Player and that supports all the major formats - SBS (both full and half), OU (both full and half), 360 and 180 immersive, and fisheye videos too. It supports SMB shares through the Apple Files app, DLNA support, and work-in-progress YouTube support.
None of the people that own one that I know and none of the ones that we bought for our company use have had this issue. I’m convinced it’s from people setting it down on the front glass instead of using the provided cover.
I love how everyone that’s answering has all these hot takes and doesn’t own one when you specifically asked for answers from owners…
I have one. It’s awesome. The screen mirroring from Macs alone is worth it. The weight isn’t as bad as people claim but it is notable. Future versions will be better just by virtue of being lighter. I don’t use mine every day for productivity but I watch a lot of movies on it (especially 3D content) and it’s way better than watching on those old 3D TVs with the glasses. I use it mostly for recording spatial video for clients and we’re planning on buying more spatial cameras because of the success of that.
Gen 2 upgrades for me? Just keep making the battery life longer and keep making it lighter and slimmer, just like the evolution of iPhones and whatnot. Also, probably just a software update but a few of our team have one and it would be nice to share immersive environments/apps. Everyone is siloed in their own view currently.
Why is a 2 year old article being posted now?
I’m not sure but that’s a potential solution. You’d have to find the older APK somewhere but I feel like it should work since it’s just a Bluetooth connection to the toy.
