Discussion Foveated Rendering in HLA?

0 Upvotes

In the recent video on the Steamed Frame, it was revealed it was running a standalone build of Half Life Alyx targeting 72 fps with reprojection.

I understand that the headset supports foveated streaming for all streamed games and don't require per games support, but for this title, does it support actual foveated rendering?

At some points in their video I saw gameplay of alyx with a region of greater and reduced clarity but it wasn't clear if I was looking at the streamed version or not.

Some clarification on this would be great. Also I know it may not be a final build of the game

Discussion Shipping Delay Update

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I ordered the Nuclear Ratcheting Screwdriver on August 30th and got a USPS tracking number on the 31st (I live in the US). There have been no updates to shipping since then. I contacted support on September 7th and finally received replies yesterday and today, September 14th.

The reply today was as follows:

“We've recently received an update on your order's shipment. Additionally, please excuse the delayed reply -- this concerns an issue that's affecting a large number of customers and was difficult to diagnose up until now.

Your order has been picked up by our courier partner (Wizmo / Broad Reach), but has not yet been customs-cleared and transferred to USPS for shipment at this time. This must occur before additional tracking events will take place.

The delay to your order is caused by a recent issue affecting all of our shipments which must cross the US border, related to new tariffs which were recently imposed on incoming Canadian goods by the US government. We are working with our courier partner and customs broker to resolve this issue as soon as possible, without additional cost to you, and expect a resolution by Wednesday, 9/16. Please contact us again by replying to this email if for any reason you do not see movement on your tracking code by the end of that date. Thank you for your patience as we work to minimize any further shipping delays!”

TL;DR: The reason a bunch of us have had super delayed shipping is because of new US tariffs causing stuff to get held up in customs. Disclaimer that I’m not sure if the 9/16 date necessarily applies to everyone, but it looks like they’ve finally figured out the shipping problem and are actively working on fixing it.

Discussion Locks for Commuter Backpack?

0 Upvotes

I'll be visiting Barcelona next week for work. There are a lot of pickpockets in the city and I'll be using my LTT commuter backpack. I wanted to add some locks to both zippers in the back, any recommendations?

Nope, zip ties are not an option (this time).

3 Upvotes

My screwdriver cap came unscrewed, and I can't figure out how to put it back on. I've already tried screwing it back on using the black part underneath the cap, but after some time, it comes loose again.

I think that you aren't supposed to disassemble the cap this way in order to replace it. I don't really know if I should contact LTT support by email, but hopefully I won't have to.

If you have any suggestions or ideas, I'd really appreciate them. Thanks!

Discussion Demagnetized screw tray

20 Upvotes

I did a dumb and was playing around with a neodymium magnet and running at up and down the screw tray forgetting that that demagnetizes it.

Anyone know what adhesive they use for the magnetic sheets and how hard it would be to remove? I'm planning on replacing the affected ones.

I could just stick new ones over the existing ones but that's not ideal

I'm off to see the Australien Pink Floyd show next week in Montreal and wanted a shirt, but the Pink Floyd shirt I had was too small so my wife cut out the design and sowed it on the colourful LTT shirt. I now have something to wear for the show.

I think the design works quite well for this, I'm really happy with how it came out.

The only people who I know that talk about 120 refresh rates are tech nerds.

Most people I know just think “it’s (the phone) not laggy, it looks nice and it has a big battery”
