This is actually not only being reported by noyb (which also isn’t an outlet, but an NGO specializing in data protection matters) but also by netzpolitik.org and even heise.de (both German).
All three have been very reliable in the past, so I don‘t think there‘s any reason for doubting the authenticity of the documents.
Cool project, but it seems to be very similar to PairDrop with the major downside of not being open-source. What would be the advantages of using this project over existing FOSS-solutions?
I think I‘ve stumbled across this at some point, but I think it has been updated since.
Thanks for finding it, I‘ll keep it in mind when I get around to trying VR on Linux again in the future.
I’m doing all of my PC gaming on Linux for years now. Except for VR. It’s unfortunately not running well at all for me. I’m running an Nvidia GPU with a Valve Index and whenever I was able to even get a picture on the HMD in the first place, the latency from movement to screen was about a second or so. Which is an incredibly efficient way to feel incredibly sick.
I’m not sure about your setup, maybe it’s better supported in some way, but, from my experience, I’d unfortunately recommend keeping a Windows partition for VR and saving yourself the (quite literal) headache.
This is very speculative, but along the things they’ve learned for VR they‘re mentioning APUs and wireless streaming. This might hint towards a standalone device which can also be connected to a PC.
It‘s possible to use VR headsets with the Steam Deck. It‘s just far too weak for a pleasant experience.
It‘s worth noting though, that, according to this interview (37:30), Valve is probably working on a new VR HMD which will make use of the things they‘ve learned from developing the Deck. So I‘d guess there‘s a standalone headset coming from them at some point in the future.
You just need to learn from big automakers and use Volkswagen!
Note that this is an issue from 2021. Firefox has implemented countermeasures since version 85, Chrome seems to have done the same.
So while this is definitely interesting, it shouldn‘t be an issue anymore.
