There’s some things called software architecture, requirement engineering and software design. More dev teams should try this.

Always leave it to the actual users to find any bugs you didn’t think of, lol.
Actual Josh from “Let’s game it out” energy.
I self host some stuff, because I dislike that I’m buying only the rights to consume certain kinds of e-media, instead of buying the e-media itself. So I make us of the consumer rights laws in europe and make a decrypted personal copy and stream it myself from my home server (an outdated laptop)
I spun this up just today and had no issues whatsoever. Just a bad aftertase because the AIO package creates and manages other containers on the host, I’d love to have more control over those as well. But for the sake of comfortability I’ll just have to accept that. And it truly works out of the box!
But that’s PS5 VR exclusive, OP said he had a Quest 2 and I believe the VR Patches for PC are still quite janky.
Skyrim can almost be modded like Skyrim SE, so that’s a huge plus. There are also VR specific mods that give you a more natural VR feel, like HIGGS (Haptic Overhaul), VRIK (giving you a body) and PLANCK (gives you the ability to interact more freely and directly with your environment) This definitely gives Skyrim the VR feel that it needs.
Having something like VR Weapon Throw also gives you a lot more options to play the game, adding thrown weapons and semi-medieval firearms. They don’t make a lot of sense canonically, but the added gameplay value is tremendous.
Another Idea is to add a couple of “Survival Mode” mods, to make it truly immersive. Speaking of Immersion, you definitely should install as much graphical overhauls as your PC can handle, especially for NPCs and Items. You can handle muddy textures in the forest, but it’s not pleasant to speak to a muddy textured face. Or looking at a sword that’s just a blob of grey and shiny.
Also some kind of Machinery. “GameMachine” for my Xbox “BigMachine” for my PC “MiniMachine” for my Phone “MicroMachine” for my Pi
Except my small 2-in-1 Laptop. That’s “decepticon”. Because it’s an Asus Transformer Book.
I usually cut down on domain/DNS cost by using a free dynamic DNS service called duckdns. It works super well, provides Let’s Encrypt support and sub-sub-domains. (for example your could have https://git.$username.duckdns.org
)
I’ve found as a IT noob that Caddy 2
provides as much “batteries inside” and “boiler-plate free” to support me, because I have no Idea what I’m doing. So I just let caddy handle my encryption and reverse proxy to my actual server.
I’m an embedded software dev, who only discovers ethernet protocols on a surface level, because we hadn’t need it yet in previous projects, so I’m a bit lost on how to do cloud stuff. So having all these great tools for free for me to try out and connect from outside to my media servers and stuff is awesome!
Same.
I feel like the people here are way more open for discourse, which makes it a lot less scary to voice your thoughts.
Still haven’t posted anything though, I’m not a conversation starter, but rather a participant. XD
Destiny 2: The new season feels fantastic.
I used to do the same, with the exact piece of software, when I was a contractor for a big enterprise that didn’t give me sh*t to do.
Even after asking multiple times for some assignments and integrating myself into the daily standups, manager meetings and made myself “part of the team” as much as possible, they didn’t use me or my skills.
So naturally I went Eff that and just didn’t care anymore. Whenever someone had an assignment for me to do, I’d get the job done in no time and go back to “busy idling”
It’s not. Like the commenter above said: It’s a fraction of the task at hand. Especially when you design the rest of the system to run only if necessary. Context Switches are what? like 50 CPU Cycles? Store Registers, Store TCB, Load other TCB and load other register states jump back to PC. Maybe some other OS Shenanigans, but that’s basically it.
Now Imagine complex calculations on a 25-Dimensional Matrix.
