I'm curious as to why you think that freedom of hand motion is essential for VR. Certainly I can think of many VR experiences where it would be useful, but I can think of just as many where having discreet inputs (buttons) would be pre

I think you overestimate the draw of device that isn't really market tested and doesn't yet have a lot to recommend it besides its newness. Christmas of 2016 will give it time for good games to have bubbled up and make the value p

Out of curiosity, have you used any of the modern VR headsets (Oculus, Vive, etc)?

moot has always been pretty hands-off when it comes to managing the site; the current list of rules has been more or less the same for the entirety of the existence of 4chan. Some more board-specific issues arise from time to time and they

I think it's unlikely that there are many more untraceable über hackers out there with the resources to take down the gaming networks.

There are reports of people still having difficulties accessing PSN. I don't know if Sony's network needs more time to recover or what the deal is at this point.

I think GoreName should be the canonical pronunciation simply because it's more fun.

I'm no scientographer, but it seems to me that a dependence on helium may be a stumbling point for getting cheap vacuum transistors to the market. The ongoing helium shortage[1] is driving the price of helium up which could make helium

I'm not certain what you're trying to say. When you talk about "the function," I'm assuming you're referring to the nearest unused colour function, which, while it is a one-to-one mapping is also a) a function

Hey all, I've gone ahead and updated the targeting algorithm to reduce the darkness bias described in the article. It has been updated to reflect this, with before and after pictures.

Well, it's not so surprising. I don't live in a tech hub (yet), I have relatively little professional dev experience, almost no side projects, and my resume didn't wasn't very professional looking until relatively recent

Listen, it's really simple. You've got your Jaypegs, which are lossy but small file size. Then you've got your Pings, which are lossless but really large. But you also have Jiffs, which can be animated.

The problem is not that there are fun, beautiful people, the problem is that using those pictures objectifies women by using them as the draw to the event. Two women in skintight outfits almost kissing is not an appropriate advertisement fo

I was going to make an extremely similar posting and I agree with you on every point. I think the largest takeaways on the crazy, viral successes of simple games like 2048 and Flappy Bird is that if the game is designed for the player to lo

This is probably the most forward-thinking move that Facebook can make. I've personally been kicking around ideas about what society will look like in a post-VR revolution world, and it seems that Zuck et. al. have come to the same con

It is wrong to accuse people of being plants without strong, specific evidence of their misdeeds. Being an opinionated Internet commenter, I have seen unjust charges levelled against others and myself, and it absolutely destroys productive

I always appreciate what moot has to say, and I think he's absolutely correct about anonymity creating a stage in which it's fine to fail publically. There's almost no judgement based on past efforts, which means that you can

Ability to debug is really a function of general domain knowledge, "skill" of accessing documentation and/or examples, and good understanding of experimentation. It's difficult to teach, as different coders approach prob
