/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

VR is actually amazing now. You just need a comfortable headset (the Bobovr M3 Pro is my favourite).

The graphics in some games are awesome, and I can watch movies in a full theatre environment on my sofa. I’m kinda sad it hasn’t taken off, because it really is great. I’ve gotten my whole family into it now, even my 88 year old dad.

Have they improved the headache situation?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The headache and nausea comes from the hardware not being able to render 90 fps at 90 Hz. If you can satisfy that then both conditions go away almost completely.

Really! Is there a known biological mechanism there? Sounds like it's our sampling frequency basically, lol

If you're really sensitive to motion you'll still get motion sickness when using locomotion instead of teleportation (moving smoothly with a thumb stick instead of just teleporting to where you want to go with a screen blank when traveling)

Yes, that's basically what it is! I read a lot about it back in like 2017 when I got my first VR headset. There are articles out there if you're interested in reading more.

I think so. The graphics are photoreal in many games, and there are comfort settings to prevent nausea and whatnot.

It’s come a long way, baby!
