>$700
>steam index was $999
um yeah I think its safe to assume the more advanced VR headset that runs your games locally is gonna cost atleast AS MUCH as version 1

>>107707411
The index had lots of custom hardware like the base stations and had good build quality
The Frame is much more cost optimized, the displays and lenses cost less to make then back then, the controllers are simpler. The additional cost comes from the CPU, RAM and UFS chip which wouldn't cost a lot if there was no bullshit market manipulation by openai

>>107707669
you would be right, if there was a competitor example that costs $700-800 (other than the quest pro for $1000).
But ignoring the quest, the pimax crystal light is wired, has no battery, no OS, no passthrough, or eye tracking, similar resolution and display (but with aspheric lenses, no pancake), and it costs $860 with controllers (but the controllers are known to be worse than steam VR's tracking, and you could buy just the headset for $600 and spend a fortune on a SteamVR adapter + controllers + base stations).
I think you are underestimating how much money meta makes from kids who trick their parents to buy a $300 VR headset, for the headset to have a $10 monthly subscription so after 1 year it becomes a $440 headset.

Anyone have a clue why the latest mpv performs worse?
Using this to benchmark upscaling 2004x1128 to 4K with a shader:

mpv --fs --loop-file=yes --no-config --audio=no --untimed=yes --video-sync=display-desync --vulkan-swap-mode=immediate --vo=gpu-next --glsl-shader=~/.config/mpv/shaders/ArtCNN_C4F16.glsl

0.40 = ~260 FPS
0.41 = ~180 FPS

NTA but by using the pi to run the software it has a dedicated chip handling the input which is why it's popular with MiSTer setups, the FPGA board can't handle both.

>>107709473
This is a justification for offboarding emulation on an underpowered device, not support for the claim that "actual hardware sounds better", which is a nonsense claim I was making fun of, because the overt implication was that "munt on a pi sounds better than munt on any other kind of PC". I didn't even make fun of him for his "actual midi functionality" claim, ignoring the fact that virtual midi routing works perfectly.

>>107709521
You can't emulate through Munt on old hardware. The point stands if you want an MT-32 without shelling out money you'd want to run a pi version.

>>107709559
>You can't emulate through Munt on old hardware
I do really wonder how many people are big enough sticklers for accuracy that dosbox is verboten and they have to haul out what is probably these days very expensive old hardware to run games at lower resolutions with poor framerates, but sure, a 60 dollar kit is probably less effort than finding a couple of midi adapters and leaving your PC on.

language is the precursor to developing intelligence. This has been theorized for almost a century. I published a research study on this a decade ago.

Long story short - with basic language you can convey information, which leads to understanding and gives meaning to specific things. This information can then be passed down and it naturally evolves. As language evolves, conveying information becomes more complex and thus intelligence grows alongside it. Its a symbiotic relationship between the two, but language comes before intelligence.

Think of it like this - Cavemen ooga booga their words, they are not developed. As soon as languages evolve, intelligence evolves along with it. Writing becomes invented and so on and so forth.

Look at the other intelligent species on the planet for reference - Corvids have a language and are able to pass down information to each generation. As such they have the intelligence of a 7 year old human. Dolphins are in a similar position. Cats and dogs and other species that have some vague basic understanding of what our words mean are also generally more intelligent and are capable of doing more complex tasks

>>107702506
>without delivering anything economically useful
For what its worth, it replaced code monkey jobs.

it makes no sense the llm craze
a human brain spends 20w/day to do more than this shit does with 2000w/day (inference only, not even thinking about training)
its two orders of magnitude more efficient

>>107709189

Yeah but its not like words develop inteligence by uttering them. If you train a chimp to respond to commands, it still won’t be as smart as a human child. They evolved together (language AND intelligence). A lot is about how humans are complex af socially too.

If believing that makes you feel comfortable.

>>107707892
You should split your time and do both. Low level understanding is invaluable, but it's also an endless quest. You'll never reach a point where you feel like you understand everything that makes your program work. The only way is to iteratively deepen your low-level understanding while also practicing your ability to actually ship stuff.

arguably, even researching what keyboard to buy was more difficult than to learn to play because midi keyboard manufacturers cater to the lowest common denominator poorfags and they use toy manufacturers for the keybed so you can easily end up with keys that don't feel good to play with sloppy velocity sensitivity, no aftertouch and some keyboards don't even have release velocity. i had to independently research top tier synths to get a real answer and i didn't even pay more than what a high end midi controller costs for a used top tier professional quality synth that's built like a tank.

I hate consumerism and owning multiple devices for the same purpose... but I love the Idea of a thinkpad. Just imagine how good it must feel, to have everything you own digitally in a small folderable device, that you can take everywhere. Freedom.

1.5 was a leak, AFAIK. And it was 100% trained on a lot of stolen art, which is why it can create cool stuff newer models are incapable of. But from a technical standpoint, it's pure dogshit.
