Virtual 1930s Harlem

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the insmod-easy-rawlins dept.

Raiford writes "Students can now take fully guided field trips in a VR environment. An article in the newsroom section of the IEEE website describes a trip to an historic Virtual Harlem setting in the 1920s and 30s. The article gives a description of the VR technology and programming and states that the simulation is supported for both Silicon Graphics and Linux platforms"

    Surely it happens all the time that people want to fight with me, and it's always the "suit people" who do, but I can always just ignore them and walk away or talk myself out of it and calm them down...

    That's called being a fucking pussy.

    I've been into the punkscene, gothscene, industrial scene and metal scene.. My hair is a black mohawk. I often wear makeup, plastic clothes and sometimes even highheel boots.. I almost always hang out with goths, industrials, punks, hippies, transvestites and other non-mainstream "genres" of people.. I also often go to BDSM- and fetish-clubs..

    So, in other words, you're anecdotal evidence that, indeed, "GTA3 is for sickos". Thanks for the input.

    By the way, is there any way you can just be mentally ill a little more, well, quietly? Is it really necessary to scream to the world "I'M MENTALLY ILL!! LOOK AT ME!! LOOK AT ALL THIS FREAKY HARDWARE I WEAR!!".

    And if you're going to be freaky, at least be original about it rather than just another Marilyn Manson clone.

    The reason you don't get your ass beat is because nobody wants to touch you. You're probably a filthy AIDS carrying fucknut and we'd be afraid of spilling your AIDS tainted blood.

    I hate niggers. They are like monkeys. No, sorry, that is unfair to monkeys. Shame on me!
