This Kickstarter got shared on a game dev discord I'm on, and while it does look cool I'm a bit skeptical. The tech totally exists, but I think I've only seen videos/reviews coming from official VITURE channels, which is always big red flag.
Quoting: ObsidianBlkThat brings me to my final worry... The presentation. It's all quite slick looking, but what gets me is that the very first thing that's been focused on with this bit of kit is how they went to "one of the most prestigious design firms" to come up with the style for these glasses. Sure, few people what to have duct-tape and cardboard (<- Ha! Google) strapped to their face, but it feels telling that the very first thing the creators of this revolutionary new tech gadget wants to impress upon you is how good it looks. How well it functions comes later. Let's talk about how good it looks.So much this. It screams early 90's VR, where there's a whole lot of effort and hype put towards saying how great it looks/feels/works, without a lot of data or ouside reviews to actually back it up.

Very cool news. Inscryption was my GOTY last year, highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't played it yet (just don't spoil yourself, this game is wild).

Can't recommend contributing to the Godot project's Patreon enough. That team is doing incredible work.

Wow, this looks stupidly sharp. Will definitely be giving this a go.

While these look super cool, I'd be extremely concerned with the weight. I imagine it takes some pretty clever engineering to fit the LEDs, battery and comm circuits inside the die AND make sure they roll just as randomly as your typical die does.

Is it possible that the apparent increase in Linux share is due to Windows users dropping their desktops/laptops entirely and going purely mobile? Meaning that Linux users aren't increasing, it's just the number of people using a web browser on a desktop or laptop is decreasing across the board?
