SwissCM posted:VR has been used professionally for decades. Yeah, by a beyond infinitesimal subsector of professionals out there. The new wave of VR is not going to change anything. No artist is stumped by viewing a "3D" image on a 2D screen. There are no artists out there clamoring for VR because they just can't wrap their head around what their building/sculpting on a 2D screen. Not to mention the tactile feedback that a keyboard and pen/tablet provide to artists. Waving a limited VR wand around is basically scratching in the dirt with a stick. And then ultimately in the end, there's the factor that VR just released to deafening silence. SwissCM posted:Every 3D designer I know is pretty psyched about the advent of consumer VR. Even the basic tools in UE4's VR mode can demonstrate the potential, scale in particular isn't something that can be communicated though a 2D screen, not to mention the utility of having 1:1 tracked controllers. Psyched about designing in VR, or displaying the finished product in VR? I'm going to guess it's the latter, since these guys are on a timeline and a budget, and designing in VR space is beyond cumbersome.

evobatman posted:Hasn't anyone made custom ROMS for these or something so you can sideload your emulators and game APKs and the Google Play store, and connect a bluetooth controller of your choice? lovely controllers aside, I believe the hardware was just fine as an Android device, it was the business management and lack of third party support that made it a disaster. Well, that, and it was also less powerful than the average smartphone at the time.

Sounds like a show that was around when I was a kid, called Captain Power. It had suprising good production values for a kids show, but it's gimmick was the toys you could buy that could "see" the strobing chest plates on the enemies in the show. So you'd shoot them, and they'd "shoot" back. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHZ5FTPYuWE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUYesRQsDz8

With Coleco, they manufactured some leather toys, moccasin stitching kits and the like, and they became they're best selling items. They then dove into the toy business, making plastic toys. So they were already going whole-hog in the toy business well before they went after electronic toys and video games. Tandy sort of branched into handicrafts, and after they became quite successful and had a cash hoard, the owner decided electronics were the future and bought an existing electronic mail-order company called Radio Shack.

This is my RAID array. Some are used for primary storage, my house hard-drives, and less important storage is taken care of by the field hard-drives. All runs a treat off of my proprietary MintJULEPOS system.

I remember back when Steam announced their "Steam Machines", powered by Linux, and there were people who actually thought Linux would supplant Windows and become the primary PC gaming OS throughout the world.

I really loving hate the modern Intel chip mounting design. At least when the pins were on the chip itself they slotted into discreet holes in the socket, making it virtually fool proof. Now they've got the "pins" on the motherboard, except they're not pins but flimsy brass leaves that just touch contacts on the chip. Ups the chances of loving it all up by about 1000%.

barbecue at the folks posted:This was back when running both Word and Excel would grind your mom's lovely Dell Win95 tower to a screeching halt. I feel like we're almost back in those days since the last few versions of Word start to chug hard if you dont save your work constantly. A lot of the documents we have to make at my work have a lot of tables in them, and Word will start to chug after you've made only a handful of edits.

Dr. Quarex posted:Oh I guess I was into PVP at first, which is vaguely shameful now. I was into PvP as well, but started to lose interest when Kurtz decided he wanted to try and get the comic into newspapers and become the modern Garfield. Webcomics seemed hip and cool at the time, but if you're actively trying to get in with thousand year old cartoonists and have your work featured in the deadest, lamest medium, it sort of puts a downcast on the whole thing.

It looks like rear end, and everyone assumed it was olds just being stubborn. And then young people from all age groups saw it and said it looked like rear end as well. There's no incentive to change.

They built a huge bridge over the river where I live, and had tolls on it. Eventually they had to concede and remove the tolls because no one was using the bridge. It would be hilarious driving over this gigantic 6 lane bridge during rush hour and you'd maybe see 3 cars on it as you went over.
