Would you be willing to clarify what your exact position on this is, so that I don't respond to the wrong statement and we end up talking past one another (because I think we're in agreement to an extent): Is it untrue that PSVR

by iamdave 10y ago
This is actually one of the big problems in developing content for VR, because it's not true. What isn't true? There are absolutely games on the market that have been ported between PSVR, Occulus and Vive platforms.

That was what I resorted to, exactly how it played out. Every store nearby was out, went home, put in an order, had it 58 minutes later to the second.

You, and the media, perceive all these stores being sold out as implying that the product is super-popular and special. I can only speak for myself here, so take it however you want to, but going to four stores and all of them being sold

Eve Valkyrie is also a full game worth talking about. Well, kind-of full. You don't get that "here's 30 minutes of an experience, now back to the start you go"; the multiplayer aspect of the game is amazing, but single p

how about at a 45° incline etc? It works. I have mine on my mounted tv, which sits roughly at that angle from where my seat is. The PS Camera can tilt and swivel down so it doesn't need directly parallel vision. Edit: The biggest kno

You have to wonder whether Sony is using the same strategy to generate more long term interest in a product that was "sold out" and "scarce". How do you mean? When I went to buy my PSVR there were four store trips (Wal

You mean other than a bar? Bonus: Not only do you pay them to meet professionals, they'll even give you booze to break the ice. More seriously though, could you be more specific? Are you looking for professionals in a certain industry,

40 light years = 12.2 parsecs. I mean I feel like an opportunity was missed here...

There are multiple kinds of irony; I keep forgetting this isn't something well known.

I've found that it also chokes when you throw Google Apps Scripts at it; or at least it did when I was developing a mail merge app for a Real Estate friend. By "chokes" I mean the application frequently locked up, cells would

What you're thinking of is called an IVR: Interactive Voice Response. http://www.openvbx.org/ OpenVBX allows you to create an IVR (layman translation: phone tree) where you can plug in "press 1 and go here, press

Bingo. While other commenters have brought up some very real benefits to self-hosting/self-publishing, monetizing the platform presents a real opportunity to make real money from your work and determine value of what gets written. I im

Re: Jekyll hosting anyone you'd recommend? As far as control goes, gh-pages has met almost all of my needs as I can use proper and semantic markup, use a custom domain and such. In your opinion what am I missing out on based on my abov

Aye, you may have commented before I edited and added the line at the bottom but I recently started running a small-site with Jekyll and Github Pages. There's an excellent change it may become my default platform.

You're not wrong, but you also can't help the perception people have if this is in fact a large enough perception; and IMO I've at moments held this perception myself . I know it isn't Medium's fault, but it's

A lot of attention is being put in this piece as to how this will affect the reader - which okay, this is ostensibly a service built for readers and I get that. I'm genuinely and truly hoping though Medium plans to address how this w

To each their own, I can see how some would like it but it's absolutely infuriating to me to be clicking away, and then suddenly see something interesting that I want to open in a new tab. So I go back, and surprise! Entirely new list

Anecdote but our team does it brilliantly. Working from home? Just let the team know via slack and go for it. Management is onboard with it and has taken the openly stated position of "we don't care as long as you're reachabl

No one will talk about it, but it's discrimination. This will make a few segments of people cringe because much like the topic of racism, there's a school of thought that it only counts when things are exhibited in severe forms
