Same here. I've been interested in VR for a couple of years, and it was either get an old & used Index/Vive (yuck) that you couldn't easily get replacement parts for or wait for the Frame. Meta was never a consideration because fuck those assholes

A hooker is a subset of sex workers. You wouldn't call someone that makes most of their money on OnlyFans a hooker, but they are sex workers
And I hate how apt it is for the platform. I'm honestly surprised there isn't an instance called lemmy.winks yet
Well shit. Now I feel bad for Lazerpig repeatedly using his picture when making fun of Brexit supporters
Thanks for the heads up!
Tbh, the price is about what I expected as well. Not horribly different from a fully decked out Valve Index when they were new, and theyre including the controllers alongsode the headset this time.
You'd hope it'd have been cheaper due to the lack of external sensors to buy, but inflation and ram/storage prices going up was inevitable. I just hope it's not DOA from people comparing it to Meta's (heavily subsidized) options
Like, the animation was sick (especially for the time)
Tbh, this is the only reason why. The story is severely underdeveloped, but at the time big improvements in tech were what sold audiences.
I kinda feel the same way about the Star Wars: A New Hope. The story was fairly anemic and did a poor job of explaining anything that was going on. It felt like an old Greek myth in terms of how things just happen as opposed to a continuous series of cause and effect. But A New Hope revolutionized media because it was the first movie to really depict alternate worlds well, giving it that technological advantage at the box office that ut wouldn't get if it released today
I don't think he actually loves her the way he does with the other 3.
Hence the /s
From what I've heard, it's just Roxy, Sylphie, and Eris that he marries.
Though there's more messed up pairings with the other characters that I've heard of
Tbf, how the fuck do you explain all this? Not saying you're wrong about needing to be open to spouses, but Rudy's situation is damned messy. From Sylphie and Roxy's perspective, there's just a random dead guy that shows up in the house in the middle of the night. That alone is suspicious. And given that Oldeus was already dead by that point, they only have Rudy's account of what was said. If Rudy just explained what was said to them and they just accepted it without question it'd be unrealistic.
Also, I don't think they're aware that Rudy was reincarnated and that he was in his 30's when he died in his previous life. This detail has huge implications on how he's interacted with them since they first met. And Oldeus knowing Rudy's original name is the main proof behind him being from the future at that point, as Rudy hadn't frozen/found the rat yet.
Rudy's reincarnation would need to be revealed to explain everything. While Cliff can probably see it with his new demon eye he's unlikely to leak that detail given how much they've been through. The only other way it could be revealed is if the Man-God tells someone else. Honestly, keeping his future self (and by extension his reincarnation) secret is the simplest solution. I get that keeping secrets from your spouse is bad, but his actions here are understandable given the lopsided risks between being open and being secret.
The big issue is how does he restart contact with Eris? Just sending a letter out of the blue is suspicious (though it's unlikely Eris will pick up on it) and Rudy still has mixed feelings about her. The other options are to try to engineer a more natural seeming situation for them to meet up (which isn't good due to the manipulation involved) or to just wait for Eris to show up on her own and hope things go smoothly.
That being said, in that last option I listed it'd probably go better than it did for Oldeus since Rudy won't be grieving for Roxie and Sylphie and also he knows that Eris's aggression is from her caring for him and being terrible at communication. Personally, I think letting Eris just show up on her own and letting things work out naturally would be the least manipulative option at this point. But doing so is a risk, and with Sylphie's and Roxy's safety already being threatened Rudy's probably not willing to take chances

Tbf, some of that lubricant is actually based on teflon.
Remember to check the label and buy non-PFAS bike lubricant

I recall it comes with a USB dongle for 6GHz Wifi streaming. That's most likely going to be supported on Linux
