How long ago was that? The Quest link cable stuff is still in flux. Not only did they just announce a few days ago that any USB 2.0 cable should now work[1], but they note in that article that Carmack is hoping to add a new mode to take advantage of the higher bandwidth of USB 3.1.

It's entirely possible if that Linux Tech Tips review was more than a month or two ago, things might look considerably different now.

He talks about "lag with lag compensation" when referring to some of the controls on the quest v.s. the rift-s

Hopefully that has improved, as I bought a quest and it arrives tomorrow! CV1 owner.

Also... Is Carmack still working on Oculus stuff? That's awesome. I got really sad when I heard he was leaving Oculus to work on general AI.

I know, it sure seems like he has a lot of skill and institutional knowledge to contribute. That said, I'm not sure what his current involvement is, I just know they referenced him in that article.
