QGIS 4.0 5 months ago

I remember, 10 to twenty years ago, when GIS was still a huge part of my job. QGIS then went from being the "cheap opensource contender" to being my main tool... How much better it was than the previous ones...

Not to belittle this or anything (it does look good and show promise), it feels like they somehow generate several consistent (but discrete) views of a given world, then feed all that to the good old pose estimation + gaussian splatting workflow. Whenever you leave the generated area (which isn't exactly huge on the few I tested) you get tell-tale signs of GS.

Does that mean all of your appliances, which should supposedly each run on a separate line, now are all plugged on a big single-line powerstrip? Sure, this single-line is only used when battery and sun are out, but when it happens...

Sounds fair, though I had hopes for such a client (at least something to just check out on the virtual world state without spinning up a whole desktop client).

Since you seem rather active with the project, do you know whether openxr is on the roadmap, or if you're stuck with openvr for the foreseeable future?

As I've been told long enough "be strict in what you give, be liberal in what you accept". We're all welcome to apply (arbitrary) strict rules to what we say, but we ought to live with the fact not every does (or, anyway, have the same set of rules to start with)
