First Impressions
Amazing scenery. Amazing music videos. Pretty intense with videos with less stabilization.
Some more adult content, might be a parental control setting but I haven’t found it yet.
Seeing the party in Tokyo was pretty amazing. The rock concert video seemed a little bit long.
Might make sense for time allotments for children. A bit like sitting in an iMax. Amazing technology. Different levels for different people make a lot of sense here. Can’t tell what the refresh rate is. Most content was impressive. Needs higher resolution cameras.
Haven’t been able to work with the 3D apps yet though they look pretty amazing.
Wasn’t able to easily comment on the videos on YouTube VR which I didn’t like.
My health problems aren’t great for being around drag queens. I do want them to be supported, I am not the best one for that. No options gets a bit annoying.
Says you can’t use it outside yet my indoors are not as big. Seems like it would be nice to feel the rays of the sun at the same time. Probably looks a bit strange to neighbors to see people walking around with their eyes covered.
The sound was a bit loud and didn’t have an easy way to control it from the App.
Had several cyber security problems on the setup. A simpler setup can help product adoption. Some of the videos made me feel a bit nauseated.
Overall an amazing product hampered by what’s going on with my network and health problems. Not always easy to design a product for rare use cases. Would I give it to children? Not without some parental controls. Would be nicer if tech products had less upkeep, not sure parents have the time to fiddle with problems like this.
Hope this adds some value on The Sabbath. I think it does.

I like the content. The international space station view is amazing. Could this reinforce bad stereotypes? Yes. More than Hollywood Movies already do? I don’t think so. Throw away all the artwork, that seems like robbing society. Not give access to tech until late in life? Would be nicer if we could police some of the content. Head strap and weight of the product gets a bit annoying, might be worse for children.
See this and not want to show it to everyone else?
Seeing the Northern Lights are amazing. Could people decide not to travel to Alaska because of this? Possibly. Does everybody get a chance to fly to Alaska? No. Not share this beauty with them? My responsibility to get this to everyone? Too much. Get the right content to the right people at the right times and could be absolutely amazing. 2d screens makes me want to see 3D. 3D makes me wonder what other dimensions I am missing. See a party on the other side of the world is pretty amazing. Multi city parties in the future, could be pretty slick. I wanted to fly to Alaska anyways, but limited funds and limited time this is a nice option. Feels like I am teleporting. Really cool. It is nice to gain appreciation for the local and the international at the same time.
Imagining that Angels in heaven get access to this and so much more makes me feel a little better about the unknown. Take life unnaturally? No. Believe the best is yet to come. Better way of looking at it.
Can understand how some parents might not want people to use this until they understand a bit more. Is it powerful, yes. Do children always use tools responsibly, no. With less network problems and more refinements I would feel better about it. Feel like the blacks could be darker, I think that might be because they didn’t use OLEDs. Heard the previous model used OLEDs. Maybe just hearing that makes me think they could be darker, don’t really know what the trade off was. On the plus side all the silence has made me pick up more on the artwork and content. Maybe how God feels when we don’t speak and pray.
Found the volume buttons on the headset, little confusing to know what’s in VR, what’s on the controllers and what is on the headset, as well as what’s in the room. Might be nice to get sharper cameras with great color on the headset to. I realize there are trade offs. Very impressed just a little concerned about the content. Be nice to know more adult content is separate. Probably would make all the parents feel better. Shades with this could be amazing. Though I would be concerned with people walking around trains or into walls.
There is the warning that the effects are like a drug and don’t wear off immediately. That is a bit strange. Not sure I understand the implications. All artwork inspires us. Think this is referring to something more like a drug. Also the network of people could be concerning. If nobody is watching the network seems like it could be problematic. Drugs, health problems, cyber security problems, real life problems all make this much more complex. Having people labeled for using new tech is pretty lame. Not to be confused with using new people. Don’t test people to destruction. Me destroyed no, I can see if people don’t help fix the content it could promote the wrong ideas in some people.
Pretty cool to know that they are making sonar like devices for the blind now. Glad to know this isn’t blinding people either.
I bet playing Doom on this would be amazing. Would also like to see Asphalt 9 on here too. Maybe DaVinci’s house and The Door 3? Wonder what some of the new XBox and PS 5 games would look like on here too. Sports games might be fun, though not sure what that would look like.
If the eye strain was reduced it could be amazing for teaching students. Really loved swimming with the sharks though kind of scary. I don’t like that 39 has a bad association with it. Trying to fix that in my brain. The opposite of a bomb, a good way to look at it. People with 6 children still good. Attaching evil values to numbers can be a bit confounding. Knowing when to take The Bible literally and figuratively can also be a bit confusing. I think of the code of the beast as labeling people for destruction. Maybe that part of the book is meant to be taken more literally. Maybe there to inspire people to stop people from labeling each other for destruction. Maybe to inspire people to be better and more forgiving. And as I have seen others can trick people into thinking it might be happening when it is not. Maybe in a nuclear age the idea is to keep weapons of mass destruction from being used. 1 6 bad, 2 6 bad, stop the 3. That guy didn’t get the support they need. 1 6. He is struggling to survive 2 6. Stop the 3.
I was playing The Room 3 on iOS. I looked at Steam VR and found
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1104380/The_Room_VR_A_Dark_Matter/
I saw the Oculus logo, and looked up The Room on Oculus App
In the search it showed 50 Shades Darker in the App. After writing this I went back to the store and now it is missing. Looks like they are updating in real time, or they are just screwing with me.
Might be corporate warfare. This can’t be good for that actresses career. Can’t be good for Oculus and can’t be good for Apple. Maybe bad good publicity at the cost of pissing me off? An amazing set of technologies we are sidelining for children?
Novel thought, more technology and less problems. Inspired by the negative of a commercial and cyber security problems and many others.
I think part of the problems is we think others have the same experience. Harder to test products effectively with A and B testing and other confounding variables. CEOs give a different version, product testers get a different version etc. Those with cyber security problems be prevented from giving good information to others. Takes away our ability to teach effectively. More versions equal more work.
Carry the cost of preventing teaching forward. Problems in society? Pretty obvious
Do we want the kind of people that understand how criminals work in the supply chain? Or do we want the ones that know how to get away with it there? CEO problems and limited time. Applicants problems and limited time. Their families both dependent. Don’t build room for that into the system? Help with the system or more problems.
Or, Ore, Oars, something you mine or something you row
HDR content on Quest 2 any issue with that? I like HDR video seems like it might be a problem with the display so close to the eyes. Maybe a doctor could clue me in on this. My guess is they would have tested this before release to the public. Apologize if this question has already been asked.
Tried to play the new Doom game from my computer on my Oculus 2. Seems like it was too slow for running it properly, which is a bit odd since it was projected onto a virtual desktop. Also seems like the cyber security problems were stopping my mouse and preventing me from using my gun. Definitely scarier that way, not as much fun.
Played The Room 3 on my iPad after playing Radiant One and while playing House DaVinci App. Really liking The Room Dark VR on Oculus. Had to look on YouTube to figure out how to open the safe, maybe designed that way? Also loved The Spheres App, being able to hear my voice like waves in The Universe is amazing
Like Endspace a lot though I don’t like the name. I like NASA. Would like to see The Chorus game in VR though don’t really have money for a PS5 or XBox right now. Hard to find the right balance between creating content and seeing all the amazing content and art everyone else is putting out there. Definitely a blessing would be more of a blessing with less cyber security problems.
