The simula vr headset is supposed to be an opensource headset built on linux for doing desktop work. I think they made some sort of VR based window manager (I honestly didn’t know they released it yet, so I’m gonna try it soon) with some sort of text rendering system that makes it clear even at low resolution.
I wish they focused more on passthrough, windows projected in real life (so AR) rather than the black space you now have in the background.
Also, it for some reason uses Nix as it’s build/install system. I’ve read through their issues talking about it and I get their reasoning, but there is no way I’m installing this in my system if I have to use Nix and install it as root…
They should upstream their forked stuff and make it compilable with system dependencies 🤔
I’m sure it’s nice, but it shouldn’t be forced upon me by some random software project. I don’t use Nix, I don’t have a need for Nix. But if I want to install this project, for some reason I suddenly need to edit my root system to install some package manager I’m never using.

Nix is nice, why the beef?
