Valve Deckard - Surely Valve doesn't release it without a new Game/Software ?

Look we know the issue with VR, PCVR in particular isn't headsets, it's games and software.
 
I can't see a company like Valve releasing the Deckard and using Half Life Alyx to demo it. They surely aren't going to use any other studio's game to demo it and with HLA being 6 years old, they are going to look like fools if they do use HLA.
 
I am crossing all my fingers and toes that Valve has something totally new and exciting to throw out to use and it will be a Valve headset seller (meaning it will only run on the Deckard and will be the best VR game or software made since HLA)

Reddit copy/paste

Without action taken to prevent these posts, the forum's credibility is suffering. 2 years of these things is getting ridiculous and the links that get inserted are putting members and visitors at risk.

13700K, RTX 4070 Ti, Asus ROG Strix Z790-A Gaming, Corsair H150i Capellix, 64GB Corsair Vengence DDR5, Corsair 5000D Airflow, 4TB Samsung 870 , 2TB Samsung 990 Pro x 2, DK2, CV1, Rift-S, Quest, 2, 3, Pro, Windows 11 Pro 24H2 (10.0.26100)

I agree it's annoying, but how will you stop members from posting Reddit copies?

That would mean each post have to be controlled before posting is allowed.🤔

Usually the way this would work is not allowing new users to post links or put links in their signatures, until they have enough posts or time. But that's a problem if people need support and they need to post a link to a file or something relevant.

Well, except signatures, there's no real need for signature links for new users.

But then the issue is can the forum software handle limiting links like that? The admins here keep changing and Meta didn't write this forum, who knows who understands it well enough.

I may have to start tracking these posts with a firefox addon I have that watches for changes on parts of a page. If they edit in links (post or sig) it would notify me, and I can remove it (I still have enough left over mod powers to remove threads from the public board). Annoying work though.

 

Or... I make a forum scraper that checks every user's signature for links so we can find missed ones. Maybe use a VPN so Meta doesn't ban me for suspicious activity. 🙂

Or... Meta will train an AI bot to recognize Reddit copies and monitoring those posts.😅

For all we know it's the Meta AI bots doing the reddit copy/pasting and the links are a bug. 🙂

It just had the links added to the signature. (I've got Firefox checking suspicious posts every 8 hours)

Good that you take care of that🙂
