I am BEYOND impressed.
I am beyond impressed with the quality of the updates coming out of the desktop Meta app. It feels like every single time theres an update, some aspect of the VR Link completely breaks. One time it couldn't connect, another time it was laggy, last time there was no audio, and now it just crashes a random amount of minutes into desktop connection. It takes real dedication and skill to make a product this sh** and by some miracle, surely by the gentle guiding of a divine hand, they pull off the same stunt every single month. Jeez, I must have hundreds of hours in troubleshooting alone. If I had any b*lls, I'd ask them for a help desk position at the company or maybe even a developer. I don't have much experience in app developing but clearly neither do they. H*ll, I would even pay them a monthly subscription to stop developing my app any further without my permission because every time I that dreaded 'we've started an update teehee :3' notification, I just know that's gonna cost a couple more hours off my life just so I can play B&S one more time.
You know what... at least they're consistent.
Thank you, Meta.

This is why I love virtual reality. The Odyssey trailer native 70mm IMAX format in the ULTRA theater at SkyboxVR is perfect. Now I hope Meta releases the new hmd ultra-light 8K Micro-OLED because for me it's the only way (in my country there are no theaters with this format) to watch this film.

F.E.A.R. VR — beta 2: two-handed weapon handling, left-handed controls, ~2× frame rate
I posted about beta 1 here yesterday — here's what changed since.
Two-handed weapon handling. Grab the weapon with your off-hand and it actually carries it: the line between both hands steers the aim, weighted by weapon length, so a pistol stays with the trigger hand while a rifle is led by both.
Left-handed controls. One toggle in the VR menu mirrors the entire layout.
Medkit on the left stick click.
Performance. The stereo HUD compositor compared the presented frame against the right eye pixel by pixel on the CPU — three GPU readbacks and three passes over every pixel, every frame. It's a pixel shader now: 35–50 fps before, 87–90 after, so the game finally keeps up with a 90 Hz headset.
Confirmed on Quest 3 with SteamVR and Virtual Desktop. Needs your own legally purchased copy plus the official Public Tools; the package contains no game files.

I made a F.E.A.R. VR Mod
A few days ago I saw several people here asking if F.E.A.R. could be played in VR.
Well... I gave it a shot. 😄
👉 https://github.com/DR-89/fear-vr
It took roughly 24 hours of vibe coding to get it running. It turned into a really fun little hackathon, and honestly, I wouldn't have had a chance of pulling it off without AI.
It's still early, but if you're a F.E.A.R. fan, I'd love to hear your feedback!
