For now I’m using medium. The voxels are a bit messy but with a quick remeshing in Blender it’s quite workable. I don’t do any texture painting as that really messes the clean up part up.
I’m ready for all the real life memes we’re about to witness.

Any Call of Duty fans here? https://youtu.be/g7-jh6WJ0Ug?si=f-QMrS8fw5ZHr-hj&t=329
If by fan, you mean, am I a 39 year old man that hopes to get from Ranked Mode Gold 2 to the CDL, then yes.
I’ve no idea what you just said so you’re probably more fan than I am. 
Personally if I had to pick a game I would love to play a good race game in VR. (with the steering wheel etc) Although if it’s really that crisp I would probably pee my pants when I crash with high speed against a wall or something. 
Here’s a concept on what watching F1 might be like:

They should be paying us to use these headsets.
It would be nice if you could use a virtual mouse and keyboard with Ableton. Then I can go crazy on my recliner. 
A friend of mine pre-ordered Vision Pro and sent me a video of himself patching in VCV on the Moon. I gotta say, this thing wasn’t on my radar before I saw that video. It’s not my place to share it in here but I just have to admit that once I imagined that kind of immersion while music making, the possibilities began to unveil themselves to me.
I’m not an early adopter. This gadget is enormously expensive. But I think it’s the future.

Patching on the moon, that’s kid’s stuff! Nothing says immersion to me like tracking down an intermittent faulty connection in a dusty pile of cable spaghetti with 2 ft square of clearance to squeeze into. It’s like deluxe spelunking in the comfort of your own home.

“The future of computing is here”? As opposed to all the others before?
Anything being said today was said also especially in the 1990s when the MIT media lab was already at this. There is the famous cover and feature article of Wired magazine aback then with Jaron Lanier when he was a researcher there and yes everyone was proclaiming “the future”. I cannot find that particular one but more on them here:

The so called future is always here or coming. Apple is almost never the herald - more like a follower.
But in 5-7 years most of this will be debunked as hype. At the moment we have too much technology and very little of it applied to any use. They track everyone 24-7 and still youtube spends all its time showing me the same advertisements over and over, for products they do not have a snowball’s chance in hell of me buying. And how much data collection and analysis technology is being applied for that waste and no value?

Apple isn’t the first with VR/AR but they are the first ones doing it right. That’s why people (and developers) are hyped. They know Apple doesn’t just create hypes but in fact long lasting product lines.
What you’re describing here sounds a lot more like the Palm Pilot before iPhone.
Actually it’s early in this field and no one knows what’s right. Not least ethically in this area which is a minefield for manipulation of users and long term side effects including emotional damage and a grip on reality.
History will show. Many decades from now.
But even on a basic product level I had both a Samsung Galaxy watch and and Apple Watch many years ago and I sold them because they were underwhelming. Nothing on offer from either company even today, actually fulfils the promise of those devices. Apple and Samsung are just making add-on toys tethered to a smartphone. You still have to buy their phone, which is the previous generation item actually we should be moving past. So they don’t get it at all.
They just want their money and they want to perpetuate their existing “ecosystem”. Devices like these require revolutions of thought, not extensions of existing empires by existing overlords.
No one at the moment knows what’s right.

Just for the record I don’t think Apple is perfect, they’re actually far from it. But what they’re good at is setting a benchmark. That’s what I mean when I say I think VR will now become a mainstream thing and isn’t a hype or a specific thing for a small group any longer. 
The more reviews about AVP come out the more I learn about the limitations because of hardware specs, Apple explicitly blocking certain things or because it simply isn’t developed (yet). As for a first gen (more or less a super fancy developers model) I think Apple did pretty good. And remember this will be the worst VR by Apple.
Another thing I really wanna know the answers for: Will VR/AR reduce the amount of electronic waste and energy in the world or will it just make things worse?
Cause if it does that would be either extremely positive or very negative as currently we’re destroying our planet at such insane rapid speeds. I haven’t found any studies on it yet maybe someone has?
looks like hell on earth! everywhere I turn: screens! get up and walk around… more screens! release me from this prison!!!
