It’s cool Meta is giving $100 off promo codes out, but weird that at checkout it says “this code is no longer valid” — the email says good thru December 31st.
I mean a refurbished Quest 3S for $169.99 would be an absolutely insane deal.

In Galaxy XR I shared my view with Gemini to see if it could help me do better at Cyberpunk 2077

My most popular use of Gemini so far in Galaxy XR ? Opening up games I haven’t played in a while and asking for help with the controls and reminding me where I am in the story.
It’s actually pretty good at this given enough context.

How do you know if a game is good?
Don't watch the game, watch the player-- a reaction like this is everything.
Can't wait for everyone to check out @laserdancegame.bsky.social from @tovanbo.bsky.social !!

Watch me play pickleball with @ianhamilton.net for 11 minutes while I talk over the video in a late night ramble about the state of XR !

The tighter I wind the Galaxy XR, the wider my field of view and the more immersed I feel as the lenses get closer to my eyes.
The only problem? It becomes a blood pressure test for my head and produces a headache in roughly 60 seconds.

Really feels like pickleball.
Also: Two people can play together using a single set of PSVR2 controllers (as long as one of you doesn't mind being left handed or holding the left controller w/ your right hand).
And if your headsets are part of the same Family? You only need to buy the app ONCE.

Pickle Pro is already the game I've spent the most time playing in VisionOS. It's excellent mixed reality and gets your heart pumping!

Right now we can get a floating 2D window of the OpenXR template to run, but it's not full VR and doesn't respond to any input. We've been studying the native libraries and the kind of AndroidManifest output by Unity, recompiling Unreal source to match it, but so far no luck.

Folks trying the M5 Vision Pro at Grand Central yesterday. My appointment started almost 30 minutes late and once the docent heard I use my M2 Vision Pro all the time he didn’t really know what to do with me.

A few quick thoughts on Galaxy XR before we lent our headset to @ianhamilton.net for the weekend (since it’s silly Samsung didn’t provide UploadVR with a review unit and the one they ordered at their own expense won’t come for weeks).

Just booked a Moohan demo way out in Long Island for Thursday the 23rd. A little frustrating that I can't just go to the Google Chelsea office a couple blocks from Agile Lens, but oh well 😅
