Prom, at this stage of tech v awesomeness re the actual VR headset, I'd get the Quest 3 - that's what those utubers vids I posted were using. Lovely crisp voices and accents those two coupled with good 'ol English wit.

With the Quest 3 you can also delve into the crazy world of AR, Augmented Reality (with the Q3 you have the option of not using a PC - standalone it has an awesome onboard processor OR via PC for more graphically stunning games like Behemoth.) nowadays seems to be called MR - Mixed Reality or XR, it's cutting edge tech early days as developers bring out new 'games'/experiences apparently currently most games are a bit oriented for kids :

Q3S v Q3 review - budget headset (personally I'd still go for the Q3 because of the MR tech permits the MR gaming also - insane shit!)

When I say crazy I mean it, check these vids out:

It's not hard to see the 'tech world' is run by nerdy, porn-soaked male wankers. Imagine the good things that could be done with VR. Travel for people who can't leave their homes. Swims through the ocean with whales, to the Titanic wreck etc. Flying with flocks of birds, journeys to other planets and galaxies... It could make the end of life bearable for people in care homes, ease depression. The possibilities are endless. But what do they do? Focus on porn (of course) and stupid killing video games. FFS.

Woke up 5:55 as usual, and as usual hop onto my trainer bike seeing some US golf. The left pedal is kinda funny. A loose bolt that I repeatedly, like 6 times during a session have to tighten. Maybe I’ll disassemble the thing today and try to fix it.

I did in fact fix it yesterday. The pedal attacment to the axis was kinda torn and i did some strenthening. This morning kt worked li,e clockwork 500 calories(rather like 300). Afger the ride i fixed the grench balcony door with a knife. Good start of the morning. But now I’m here. On internet again.

5:55 is a funny time for me. I wish I could set my clock to 6:66 but it won't let me.

Have forgot why I landed on that specific time but it works fine. Commuter traffic on an earlier job probably,

Honestly, the amount of times I wake up, turn to my clock and it is precisely 5:55 (give or take 59 seconds)

Hang on. You're in Scandinavia, what the f* is a "commuter" to you?

Is it a busy walrus that gets in your way when walking between your house (a small igloo) to your office (a big igloo)?

Bro, i can not get this crypto trading thing right. Every time i buy, the sonsabitches drop ten percent or more minutes after i buy. I got my charts out and everything. Every time, I'm sure the movement has flattened out, and I'm like, "Now go!" and then bzzzzzzzuuuuu it goes down even more.

Are you guys watchin what's happening? It's madness. Coins are falling off cliffs, mates. If you're gonna do it, do it now! Actually don't take my advice. Wait fourty seven seconds after I say "go!" and then buy.

Tom, the coolest cat in the neighborhood, is now sitting on the roof of the house across the street. I will attempt to talk him down first. If this fails, i will initiate rescue protocols.

Dammit he's down. I was gonna redo the clip:

"C'mon, Tom, don't do it (as he's pacing the edge). You have your whole life ahead of you. Eight more, in fact."

Indeed, the native southern drawl with which i speak and am stricken is something I must make a deliberate effort to mitigate, lest i sound like a train hoppin Allman Brothers listenin' to catalytic converter stealin' Smithfield's barbecue eatin' Big Lots shoppin' hillbilly bumpkin.

I can doodle on a banjo, but i ain't as good as your homeboy in Deliverance.
