It comes with a 15 minute demo of the Portland area, so can be tried on your system easily. It's also cross platform.

That's a hard question, as they are all a little flawed in some way. Something like: Varjo Aero - probably the nicest overall, but quite expensive. HP Reverb G2 - nice for sit-down VR like simulators etc. Not great for general VR so mu

Recommending VR gaming to someone is hard, it's like saying 'Go on this rollercoaster, you'll love it!' which a good chunk of people will just not enjoy it. There are moments of brilliance and kludgy pits of annoyance. I

As a young kid in 1982 I thought those graphics were stunning, at least compared to text based games I'd been playing. For the future I personally think it really depends on if mainstream AR/VR will get traction or not, and there

The 'T' in TDD stands for design. :) The name of it has always hurt the concept I think. In my experience TDD uptake and understanding suffers because a lot of developers are in a context of using an existing framework, and that f

I would be tempted by this if I could try out SimulaVR first using my HP Reverb G2 HMD. It has great resolution, but I don't think there is a Linux driver that I guess would be the pre-requisite? I know a lot of people into VR for flig

If there is going to be a metaverse, I'm not sure I want Facebook to own it. It's like a bad sci-fi pulp story. Given their investment and research, I wonder if they should open it all up (even if contradictory to short-term gains

In ruby if you have the right json schema set up it works. I'm not sure I completely grok yet how the data extractors would work on the ruby side yet though. https://i.imgur.com/84mgPdF.jpg

Thanks for the info - I think I would personally be much more interested in trying out VSCode as my main editor if I knew I could also SSH Remote to MacOS as well as Docker containers and the like.

On trying to connect my Win10 VSCode Insiders build using this to a MacOS it says "Can't connect to mac: unreachable or not Linux x86_64 (Darwin x86_64)". Is this limited to only Linux and MacOS being the host via OpenSSH her

From the video comments the author noticed these and tracked them down. They seem to be power lines and a huge wind generation project in China: "I asked myself exactly the same thing when editing the video. I spent several time on Goo

DisneyWorld seem to be planning a gondola-based system for between two parks and two hotels. It is cheaper than extending the mono-rail and probably nicer for all than the usual buses they have. http://wdwnt.com/blog/20

I've used this for a couple of hobby projects and it's been fun. One thing I think it does need soon is a VR Browser for the Oculus Rift and/or Vive HMD's as well. Currently the use of the 'Carmel' VR browser i

On a quick page-down through the code, I think this is not related to AWS-Lambda, it's more 'local lambda' where the map etc is run locally.

Just 3rd party I believe. FlyInside are at the moment gathering people for a beta using the Rift and Vive with X-Plane. Their FSX plugin is excellent. More info at their forums here https://flyinside-fsx.com/

I use this to run/test locally, and then deploy. I also upload binaries, so do use the AWS upload but it's quick via a script within the deploy helpers. https://github.com/motdotla/node-lambda

The over-bearing central planning feel to this at first reminded me of a government and economy system that ol' Walt was probably diametrically opposed to. But then I realized it's just a futurist attempt at the Company Town [1] c

Yes, I've used it to call out to phantomjs, imagemagick, basically anything that will run on the AWS-EC2-Linux environment. Node or Java can be simple wrappers. Here's a template if it helps anyone: https://github.com&#
