and that’s like

all of the games before the next one, surreal

I mean of course I’m happy, it genuinely seems like new management is finally making bemani actually good now

though now I have more motivation to finish That One Drawing Series, give me a minute I’m very busy and my room is a mess

I should stress, it at least LOOKS cool and it does seem like actual good hardware

just please valve, my options are this or facebook’s offerings, have mercy

I’m probably most interested in the frame though, valve is out of their goddamn mind if they’re gonna charge more than 500-600 for it

anything more and it’s just a worse deal than all of its competition (dedicated app ecosystem, actual colour passthrough, oled screens, ease of purchase (lol))

(for context, I am one of these “apple shills”, I’ve owned both a galaxy and an iphone, I’m still in the market for a vr headset for content consumption and gaming, I do not care for ai features, I’m still waiting for apple to make a folding phone because it’s taking them a surprisingly long time)

the irony is not lost on me that the people who constantly shout about “shilling” or being a “corporate slave” are the ones that ride or die behind another billionaire tech company because they make what they like

almost makes me not want the galaxy xr, what if i become that obnoxious 😧

like going through the comments sections of galaxy xr content is genuinely an exercise in perspective

even when apple is barely goddamn mentioned or the vision pro is compared to it there’s at least one person ready to defend it like they’re some valiant knight in shining armour

inbetween her indirectly attempting to kill herself and my own personal issues (don’t ask what they are, I won’t tell you) I’m beyond it at this point

at least I can look forward to moving out, hopefully I get a say in that but let’s be real here

look, I’m too patient for my own good, I’ve dealt with tons of bullshit in my day and I’ve just brushed it off because fuck it it happens

but having to be the one to tell my own mother, the person tasked with keeping ME safe, that you can’t sleep in the same room you just sprayed is a bit much

abandoning clip studio for procreate in 2021 so I could easily do doodle pictures only to return to clip studio for doodle pictures is some next level irony

since a year ago I’ve been genuinely looking at virtual/mixed reality headsets to get

meta’s offerings are the cheapest on the market but >facebook
pico has proprietary motion tracking which is pretty good in exchange for a dead end software platform
then there’s samsung

damn!

of course I wasn’t mad about it, I’m used to dealing with kids like this on the regular, plus he clearly somewhat felt bad because he was apologising to me and his dad throughout, I only wish the best for him in his endeavours

just try to exercise some restraint, he’s only lucky I’m not an asshole
