Not an alarm, but a timer app.

MultiTimer is brilliant for having a dashboard of purpose made timers that I use all the time (weekly baking, laundry, tea timer, etc) and ad hoc timers.

Michael Crichton's "Timeline" (1999) says hello.

Keep digging, you'll find eyeglasses and Jeep tracks, I'm sure.

I absolutely love and support your use of misplet.

You seem knowledgeable in this matter, so let me ask you: is this harmful to humans? What is the harm of this watermelon virus?

Ohh, Rankine, thank you! I only remembered Rheamur - there you go. 😊

... Like what is not a very common skill? Touch typing in general? Or doing it under VR specifically?

  • The latter would be quite niche I suppose.
  • The former? I cry for the current and future generations. It really is not very hard to learn, realistic to master, and incredibly useful in daily (professional and personal) life.

Hey, that sounds very interesting. It's there anything not working as it should work that hw/sw combo?

Honestly, this is the most heartening thing I've read about US politics in recent years. (PS. Am not American, and not in America)

Asking because I've never had the experience: how does one write anything while wearing a VR set? Please don't tell me it's one-finger "Fliegender Adler" on a giant floaty image of a keyboard?

This would utterly kill the comfort, convenience, and speed of touch typing, would it not? Ahh, progress... Even in Minority Report they had (friggin' sweet-looking!) keyboards alongside their fancy futuristic FAUI*.

^((* FAUI - flailing arms UI)^)

New ~~fear~~ worry unlocked....

Seems like this was done by working out passwords based on figuring out where people were looking and gesturing, rather than looking directly at the keyboard.

As a person using an uncommon keyboard layout, I reckon this would make it harder to hack my typing.

IF I could even get such a layout on wherever VR system I would theoretically be using... 😬

I understand what you say about needing to render every frame, but it's possible to use a very slow frame rate for the gif (eg. 1 frame every 2s).

Are they evil attack squirrels of death? If so, one should be plenty.
