Cool! Very immersive and this is coming from an oculus rift owner. I was thinking the next step up from this would be to setup 360 degree cameras every 10 or so feet along this path and have them all record for say an hour. Then you could &

Imagine how much value/productivity would be lost if stackoverflow was erased from existence. I saw somewhere that you can get all of wikipedia on a 128GB SD card? Would be cool if you could get the same for all of stackoverflow. Would

If you had a 3D printer that could print objects up to the size of a car in an instant, what would you make? I'm thinking the best application for me might be furniture. It would be really cool to flip my apartment every year by meltin
