What are some things that used to be expensive, but which no longer are?
I was just thinking in the back of my head about how cheap LEDs have made types of lighting that would've cost way too much (both to install, and in electricity usage) no longer stupidly expensive.
For example, I noticed on Amazon some cheap furniture that has LEDs/power outlets sort of integrated right into them. Looks pretty cyberpunk-ish to my eyes. And I know years ago that sort of thing would've been marked up to high heavens.
Fancy lighting in general has changed drastically in price/design.
So...what are some things, due to changes in demand or changes in tech or changes in anything...that would've been really expensive back in the day, but which no longer seem to be, making them more frugal than they used to be?
Every god damn fitness app for VR... Why the hell do I need to pay a subscription fee just to keep better track of how much I swung my controllers or head around or set higher goals than the built-in system?
I've never thought about VR for fitness. I have a VR that I never use. Any suggestions on an app that isn't expensive? I'm fat and trying to be not fat. Lol
The Quest has its own built in app called "Move" that works okay. It will track how much you've moved in VR and gives you caloric goals; but the highest goal you can set is 120 Calories for 30 minutes 3 days a week. All the other programs I have seen are subscription based and come with live trainers and customer support, which is what they are really trying to sell, over any kind of useful tool which could be done without a subscription but still require the subscription to use.
At least on the actual stores. I am finding more things on GitHub to do what I actually want to do with the headset than on any official channels, but I haven't gone out of my way specifically for fitness stuff.
