@SkarredGhost Looks great! If indeed it's only 270 grams as some say, It's gonna be so comfy.

PICO 'Leaks' Renders of Project Swan!
Just as Valve confirm that the Steam Frame is shipping this summer. Ha!
Vision pro inspired, but half the weight. Looks Amazing.

PICO Project Swan

I was sent these by a source claiming it is in the public SDK, and I was able to independently verify that is indeed the case (you can too)

Fwiw, this is one of the first GPUs from a homegrown firm so the "It's as good as a RTX 4060" line has some caveats.

While it can hit 56fps in Wukong, the 4060 can double that easily. The primary issues right now are feature parity (no ray tracing), software optimization, pricing and driver maturity.

The ability to design a functional GPU to this level is extremely impressive though, and the Chinese government is heavily subsidizing homegrown alternatives.

Whether these firms can do to GPUs what China did with electric cars remains to be seen.

@CurtExplores If I were to have a guess, it could be the poplar tree cotton. it even looks like it has the seeds in.

@nikstankovic_ @maityman Oh no! Did we pull a Trump-Xi summit? Quick, someone call Gita and tell them the Beijing twitter meetups are also in crisis! 🤣

Lucas Pope, the developer behind Steam hits Papers, Please and Return of the Obra Dinn, is worried that AI bots will steal his ideas.

"The situation feels different to me,"

"You don't really talk about stuff when you're working on it because it's going to get slurped up by AI or people are gonna copy it, or something else like that. It's not a hard rule, I just don't feel as comfortable talking about the stuff I'm working on."

This is a real place called Chongqing!
aka the 'Cyberpunk City'
-
VR is cool and all, but you can go there for real!

[The Highly Seasoned Gamer VR 🎼 @Jayson_Composer]

So… I casually walked around China today FOR AN HOUR in Virtual Reality. At night… in the rain. ☔️ No words can explain this! It was absolutely beautiful inside of the #PSVR2 headset. The 3D depth, colors & immersion are mind-blowing! 🤯 I didn’t even play the game. 😂 #VR

[TeaTimeTraveller 🇬🇧 🇨🇳 @Lao_Who]

@Jayson_Composer They call Chongqing the 'cyberpunk city' for a reason.
It's very cool!

[TeaTimeTraveller 🇬🇧 🇨🇳 @Lao_Who]

@americanmcgee Wow, Lucky is very talented. 3D printing is such a great skill to learn.
I have a daughter who is 3 1/2 years old. Do they really grow up that fast?

[TeaTimeTraveller 🇬🇧 🇨🇳 @Lao_Who]

@americanmcgee Yeah, I definitely had to go through my own period of realisation after some years living in China.
Western propaganda is highly effective. I appreciate you sharing your insights into life there.
Hopefully, with the recent visa-free policies more people will see for themselves.

✨🇨🇳This is an ultra-realistic bionic robot made by a Chinese company. Its facial expressions and movements are just like a real person. It's amazing.

[Orihime @Orihime_chan0]
