I recently figured out my new setup, but one thing I’ve been struggling with are my wallpapers. I use 3 monitors, one 21:9 and two 16:9s, one of which is portrait. As a result, my wallpaper situation is messy since wallpapers for one don’t work on the others. On my old setup, I just had a big folder of backgrounds I...
I got my hands on MPEG-V standard documents which lets me inject “SEM” (sensory effect metadata) inside .mp4 files which would let me program real world stuff on cues like lights, chair movements, water sprays, etc. So literally if I had a NAS with a hoard of movies and bought the right equipment, i could make 4DX at home....
My grandmother wants to install Mahjong onto her phone. I couldn’t find any results on the Play Store with no ads or in-app purchases. She doesn’t understand technology and could get tricked into purchasing stuff or compromising her data.

I trust the provider, and it’s a small amount I’m willing to risk. Just don’t want to throw it away, be frustrated, or get involved with shady people....
So John Darnielle of The Mountain Goats does this thing in some of his lyrics where he’ll start a sentence out with a verb as though it’s an imperative, but it’s from a first-person POV. There’s a lot of examples but the song “Counterfeit Florida Plates” is the one that comes to mind first, for me. Is there a...
Okay so I work in one of those amazing tech companies where you have to submit 360 feedbacks every 6 months & will be PIPed etc. As here because unfortunately the programming related communities seem pretty inactive....
I know there are Quest 2/PC crossplay, asymmetrical games, but what about Quest 2/Switch? I mean where one person would be playing a game on Switch and the other the same one on Quest 2, together.
