First, to become better at working with concurrency and learning the OTP "framework", and second to see if I can finally make unit testing work well. Tbh unit testing never clicked for me, I always end up making compromises that make the architecture way worse for the sake of testability. I'm hoping that this time I'll be able to get it right.

You need to render at a higher resolution than your target because of reprojection, you also have a wider fov which means more things to draw and then there's doing it twice because your rendering from two slightly locations and you need to do it consistently at at the very least 90 fps.
That said, it's not crazy, but doing a vr version and a regular version of the same game and the vr version will need to have less detail to cover for the things above. But if you put doom on there it would render at an adequate speed and quality from your smart watch. And the steam deck would be more than adequate for a lot of content.

That's correct. Especially if you're not directly in control of that data there could be multiple different reasons for that data to stick around in ways that could make it accessible to law enforcement.

Minimized compared to what? To buses, subways or a bike? I can imagine scenarios with shared* cars/vans/buses that function as buses do now, but with dynamic destinations. Is it something like that we're talking about here, or is everyone still expected to own their own car?
*shared as in that several people that ordered their trip separetely sit in them at the same time.

Or maybe I'm just overwhelmed that it can do so much, and I just need to figure out the few parts I actually need to do. This looks like the kind of thing I might be interested in learning because it could be fun, but maybe not the shortest path to the goal.

There is also the server logs, but the way it's set up I can really only check those from a specific computer and they're a bit time consuming to manually parse.
