Anti-fascistic software is made possible by pro-labor licensing.
I've been trying to write this piece for years. Every time I get started I'm just overwhelmed with paralyzing visions of the FOSS commentariat accusing me of WrongThink.
But I'm tired and we urgently need to get our shit together.

Lynx says its next headset won't run Android XR, as Google "terminated" its agreement, but will have by far the widest FOV of any standalone:

Imo assuming you're okay with paying a bit more, Steam Frame is the upgrade for Quest 2, Index or any 4-6 year old headset at this point.
But it doesn't make sense for anyone that owns a headset from the last 2 years (Q3, Q3S, QP, P4, P4U and etc) unless you're a tinkerer/hacker/developer.

A couple of weeks ago at @perfnow.nl I gave a talk called "Fine-grained everything". It's about @svelte.dev (obviously), and the new frontiers of framework-land, but it's also about some stubborn misconceptions in web performance circles

Oh wow now that's interesting 👀
NEW: Valve is bringing Android apps to Steam. Not only can the Frame run side-loaded Android APKs, Valve will be inviting Android devs into its store.
Imagine what this means re: Google forced to crack open Android. Also: Meta Quest games are low-hanging fruit!

There is a massive space for standalone headsets between 2K plain LCD and 4K micro-OLED.
Perhaps the ASUS ROG Horizon OS headset will serve it.
