I'm not so sure about that. A small infrared camera and led mounted near the eye can track the eye. Along with tracking, you can also calculate the depth field by determining the circumference of the retina. This in turn allows for sof

They are both pretty far back. They are also only $350. I have access to IUPUI's CAVE, as well as other VR equipment. The expensive equipment is really good, but on part with ~$20k and up. And it's not portable. And it requires ap

It also does something else. It makes smaller apartments even easier to live in. Suddenly my 400 sq. ft. studio is not small, but now very spacious. In fact it's as big as I want it. Virtual, of course, but that makes tight living spac

Of course. Ideally, head tracking would be locked to the latency no greater than the time between a frame. 240hz is only 4.16 ms, which is still within human perception of view. Ideally, I'd like 1khz refresh, but that's going to

I've interpreted presence as "how much can you fool the brain that you really are there". The screen-door effect is still moderately high in DK2. I've heard the CV1 has much reduced the size of the pixels, so the effect

Admittedly true. I do spend a great deal of time on our rifts. I've done some dev work for it, along with using it as my virtual desktop. I didn't think that people would be interested in my personal use case, because I am rather

That's your opinion. I do demos with a Alienware R18 laptop with a DK2 with demos different depts have made. I bring this oversized desktop in a laptop format to demos, and show them off. I perhaps have 1 or 2 people out of 50+ each ti

I heartily agree. Feminism is sexism. As is MensRights. Any group that puts one sex above or "equal" (think Animal Farm version of equal) is sexist. Same also applies to race. Race shouldn't matter, period.

Just because no single person owns you, still doesn't mean you are working for basic subsistence in slavery-like conditions. And others knowing that can, and will abuse you because of that.

Yes, because it's most certainly required to upload and "prove" all claims about oneself on the internet. Oh wait, it's not. It was a claim about his self. You don't like it? Quit reading.

That makes sense. I was discounting ag runoff as negligable, which I shouldn't have done.

I'm not sure I understand how the carbon is being stored here. Is it in the form of dissolved CO2 that's with the salts dissolved? And how did humans create this store? This article seems very light on details.

That's strange. We have a pile of the new Intel Compute Sticks, HDMI windows 8.1 x86 devices. They're pretty slick. So, I threw Win10 on them. My big complaint is that the install took 2.5 hours. That sucked. And then it came up.

Because in the case of GitHub censorship, it really is feminism and social justice warrior garbage. But I might be a white (-3 points) guy (-2 points) so you have to balance that in with the cited facts about the rug. I think it's pret

This debacle is what happens when feminism gets in the way. Meritocracy is now a "bad word" according to feminists. The start of this change began at GitHub 2 years ago, with getting rid of a rug. The rug said, "United Merito

What's going on at Github is rather perverse. And it happens to be around the word "Meritocracy". Because of the "feels", the word meritocracy is a 'disempowering word'. It makes people with less skill fee

And offering only during surge pricing at a set rate is somehow equal to setting out a shingle with your desired price? Right.
