I got Virtual Home Theater on Steam to watch 3D movies, it’ s a great experience.

Half-Life: Alyx and the Psychonauts VR game are also great. Pro Tip: The HP Reverb G2 is really cheap and it’s got 2160p per eye. It’s not officially supported anymore since Microsoft canceled their VR platform, but Oasis drivers make them work better than ever.

Skyrim.

I also have a microwave from the 80s, got it from my dad and he bought it when he was young.

I hope it never dies. I love the Star Trek-like touchpad and the beautiful CCFL display. 😍

It’s a Panasonic as well, I even have the ridiculous microwave cookbook somewhere, which contains a lot of really bad meal photos.

I use the TVTime app. It’s a bit shit (mainly the atrocious loading times), but it works.

Yes, by being able to feel the controls so can focus your eyes on the road in front of you.

I thought we would finally have haptic touch in our devices. There were some experiments in the past, but it never happened outside of niche industry applications.

Makes me a little bit sad, because being able to feel elements is really useful - I can type blind on my Titan 2 phone (which has a real keyboard) and in cars, it would really improve safety.

In Germany, after national socialism, we have very strict rules on how you are allowed to talk about it, because there were unfortunately a lot of people still denying it or not believing it.

True. But a lot of people on the whole Fediverse seem to be very narrow-minded black-and-white thinkers. In their logic, abiding to the law in Germany is equivalent to following direct orders from the Gestapo. Maybe you just don’t want to get arrested and put in jail for running a niche community on the internet, but that’s not even an argument to them.

Some people in that db0 thread even suggested feddit.org should just shut down completely, which is ridiculous. Every country must’ve laws you don’t agree with, but you don’t run and hide because of that.

This “we vs. them” attitude is exactly what’s been criticized about MAGA all of the time, but doing it in this case is perfectly legitimate, somehow. I don’t know what kind of brain gymnastics you’ll have to do to come to a conclusion like this.

It’s just exhausting trying to talk to these people. I say let them shut down their community and hang out in their radicalized bubble. Good riddance.
