To use a service tier that they’ve clearly exceeded for quite some time and then act surprised when they’re asked to upgrade. Then to make matters worse they try to play hard ball by mentioning that they’re already talking to other providers. I’m sure the casino this is all for is way more lenient and let’s it’s customers play games or make bets they haven’t paid for.
I’m on CFs side. These guys should’ve known better and 120k from a casino is a drop in a very large bucket.
Right but most VR games come from stores that Apple doesn’t support and I get that it’s an all in 1 device but there is a reason VR games need beefy GPUs and that’s something that obviously isn’t in this headset. You would need enthusiast level hardware to play demanding VR games at the resolution needed for the AVP and with no way to pipe input from a PC they’ve killed that potential use case for this headset. VR gaming isn’t running apple arcade games on a virtual flat screen.
Honestly have no idea how we are talking about smash bros and Nintendo. The point is that it’s a locked down headset and for the price you would think it could at least check the boxes of its predecessors. Price is one thing but to forego support for existing open source VR standards is another.
Except most of the time developers do implement cross play and in this case Apple is the hardware developer and the software developer with no one else to point the finger at. You could also buy every console twice for the cost of the AVP so yeah it’s more of a slap in the face.
It just seems like a slap in the face to say buy one and then also need to buy another headset if you want to fire up a game with friends who don’t own this headset or want to play something more serious than the apple arcade offers. Apple could have easily made this possible but that would require them to give users the ability to interface with non apple hardware and that’s a bridge too far for them.
The anti-consumer apple BS aside. The lack of PC support or support for any real GPU that has a chance at running Games in full resolution, makes this dean on arrival for most people using VR.

I’ve worked with stainless steel (specifically 304, 430 and 401) for 15 years and the steel shouldn’t have a memory after being run through a de-coiling machine that is configured properly. Excessive heat in a focused area would definitely cause it to warp but this can usually be overcome by adding geometry to stiffen the parts. It seems like the team at Tesla is missing a step somewhere.
I agree that all of those things are improving but repairability or even the right to repair new electric vehicles is flaky at best and that’s my concern. I don’t want to own a vehicle that I’m unable to repair. Not to mention manufacturers locking features behind paywalls.
I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect 10+ years or more out of a car without shelling out a large sum of money for a battery swap. This is probably my only concern. Repairability and the cost of those repairs.
Also maybe don’t make me buy a car through a dealership. Why can’t I just order and car and it gets delivered to my house instead of making me pick it up from a dealer that gets to charge whatever they want for being a middle man on top of the cars already being too expensive.
Side note and probably hot take but I think if manufacturers were serious they would be rushing to phase out most of their combustion vehicles. If people want a new car it’s going to be electric and if they don’t want EV then they can find a nice used car and pay a premium for gas.
Depending on the grade, the weight difference between stainless steel and carbon steel of the same thickness is not much of any at all.
Not a Tesla fan but this article is garbage. Basically all sheet metal comes on coils “that resemble toilet paper” including the metal that other manufacturers use.
Right. I can’t wait for the thermal camera on my ridiculously expensive car to break so it can become a lawn ornament until I spend thousands on a new camera.
The sugar industry can fuck off.
It’s $15/year. Not exactly breaking the bank.
Having to go through a dealer shouldn’t be a thing in the first place.
I can’t find this rating anywhere. It was proposed this year but that’s all I can find.
Nope. Same article. You’re crazy if you think you can average 7mil visitors a month and stick to the $250/mo plan. It blows my mind that a casino of all things is mad about that and we’ve got people like you so desperate to shit on cloudflare that you can’t see how ridiculous that is.
