Currently trying to work with the HTC Vive on Linux. Which means I need SteamVR installed, which you only get from Steam. Steam of course nukes a perfectly fine installation with updates the moment you start it, so you need a Linux with just the right versions of packages used by steam.
Maybe I should have just given up the day Oculus dropped Linux support.
Isn't Oculus owned by Facebook? Of course it has internet-based mandatory data collection, er uh excuse me, license something something.
