    interesting dilemma, visionOS 2 (or RealityKit) seems to have gotten way more aggressive about power throttling (or my battery/cable are having issues idk), so ALVR seems to throttle to 45Hz at much lower PPDs despite being totally fine thermally.

    live demo if anyone's curious, fans speeds instantly shoot from 28/L1 to max/L2 when I play white noise on my phone, and then immediately drop back to L1 when I stop. Basically constantly get set below maximum though.
