When I read articles about VR glasses, my current conclusion is that they are not suitable for long periods of work. But yes, it would be interesting to try it out.

Like coding in a movie theatre. I like a more "intimate" experience. And what would the cat do?

Interesting. Between my migraine headaches and only having one eye, I won't be seeing the benefits of this technology any time soon.

I suspect if you think there is a guarantee there you are mistaken.

This sounds interesting. I would like to hear much more about this.

Interesting idea there.
Googling all I find in regards to development is people writing software that someone else will run on their smart glasses.
Excluding of course marketing claims which I would not look at.

I signed up for www.sightful.com many months ago. Haven't received any information for the last 2 months and past articles/videos disappear from their site. I'm concerned they are just developing enough in hope of being bought out by someone.
There are articles out there about moving toward working in A/VR. (I currently use 5 monitors and have been waiting for the next headset that will better support using A/VR for work. Augmented or passthrough keyboard view, etc.)
Here are some links. Hopefully they come through okay...

I did some research on this about 6 months ago. I had an opportunity to do some long term traveling but I can take that much time off and I couldn't take my full 4 monitor set up or work effectively from a tiny laptop. I also work with confidential information and can't have people looking over my shoulder. VR goggles would have been fantastic!
I can't quote any specific articles or videos, but my overall impression was that the tech just isn't ready yet. I really couldn't chance it. I'm not sure about the new Apple goggles, but who has $3,500 for an experiment?

I have been experiencing "application X not responding " Linux Ubuntu since unknown "version upgrade ".
Posted inquiry about it on several forums and so far no response.
My guess is it has to do with Ubuntu "multitasking"... but guessing does not solve the issue..
Reason for this post
my hobby program - tracking radio response (pings) from meteor - runs "system call"
which takes roughly 12 seconds to complete - on the good day.
When Ubuntu decides to " application (my program ) not responding"
it takes about 5 to 7 seconds to post the message and then my system call
completion is unpredictable...most of the time Ubuntu does not recover..
HENCE
I am asking this forum to recommend alternative to Ubuntu
which is "user friendly " to QT.
I did ask Mrs Google and read few "reviews" , they are void of comments as far as
programming application , likes QT , so that is why I am posting this here.
I do not care if Linux flavor X is "Windows like" or faster then a speeding bullet...
I need to get rid of "application not responding ". Period.
Thanks for reading and have a happy festivus...

What hardware platform is your app running on?
Are you sure it's Ubuntu and not the hardware you're running on?
Does it have enough memory?, etc..

I do not know how to describe "hardware platform".
I have been running Ubuntu WITHOUT this problem for over 10 years.
As I said it started recently, after about three or four version upgrade.
It affect ANY application , not just my C++ code.
I have 8GB RAM and NEVER seen it over 50% usage.
I appreciate your comments, however, I have had it and if it is a system hardware
issue it will show up in another OS. Then it will be end of guessing.

Whenever an app gets into a "not responding" state, it usually can be attributed to its UI thread being blocked by a long-running task, and the solution typically is to move that long-running task to a background thread. But since it's been working fine "for over 10 years", and is happening with multiple, unrelated (?) apps, it's hard to blame that. I'd say you're probably correct in that there's something else in one of the prior upgrades that has introduced a problem that wasn't there before.
You could start rolling back to previous versions, but (a) I don't know how much of a hassle this is going to be for you and (b) it's still going to be a needle in a haystack. But, if you go back far enough to demonstrate, say, that a version that used to work no longer does...then it could be failing hardware, such as a disk taking its sweet time to respond and affecting every application. But if you could pinpoint a specific version where the problem reappears (when moving from version X to version X+1), then at least you could start looking at a change log.
I can't think of much else to add at this point other than good luck. I can only imagine just how frustrating this sort of thing can be.

He means, "what are you running it on? A PC, Raspberry Pi, etc.".
If, by any chance, it's a Raspberry PI, check dmesg to make sure that you have neither low voltage nor high temperature conditions.
Also check your SDR USB dongle for overheating.

I found - years ago - Fedora to be the best for me...
I occasionally using Qt, and it works for me, however the IDE comes with it is far from being good... but it may be a global issues and not specific to me...

You may like to try the suggestion at Ubuntu 22.04 too eager[^]. However, more importantly, you really need to find out what is taking so long to process.

Amazon.de now offers The Who - Who's Next | Life House [SDE with 10 CD + 1 BD] for 133 EUR !
https://www.amazon.de/Whos-Next-10CD-BluRay-Who/dp/B0CB91MQBY/ref=sr_1_1?crid=ENWZY4BROF10&keywords=the+who+who%27s+next+super+deluxe&qid=1703352171&sprefix=%2Caps%2C109&sr=8-1[^]
Within germany inc. shipping.
I don't know how much shipping within the EU costs and for US or UK you have to check for shipping costs and probably taxes.
Many say Who's Next is one of the greatest Rock Albums of all times and I can say they are right!
I use Amazon Music Unlimited for streaming and this SDE (Super Deluxe Edition) is very good.
The original album, the Pete Townshend Life House demos (CD2 and 3) and Sessions, Outtakes and Singles (CD 4, 5 and 6) are great!
The live concerts are not so important for me:
CD 7 + 8 live at the Young Vic [Theatre] 1971
CD 9 + 10 Live At The The Civic Auditorium, San Francisco, USA / 1971
Perhaps someone is interested and can save some money.
EDIT:
For shipping costs and/or taxes please contact Amazon customer service!

Well it amused me, anyway[^]
Told you I'd be back, but I'll be doing it slowly - I have a backlog of several months worth of sleep to catch up on, and my concentration is a bit short as a result.
