Haha, yes. It's the kind of realism I can do without though. To be fair to Oculus the resolution and refresh on those units wasn't so good and I'm a terrible test case having suffered from car motion sickness when I was a child (many happy memories of sitting in the back bent double as the hours rolled by).
My experience with the DK II SDK is that there's a relationship between novelty interest and nausea. The more of the latter, the less of the former. It was a deal-breaker for me. I managed to spend quite a few hours in Elite Dangerous though but mostly because space is black. Flying inside a space station made me want to heave.
Otherwise I think VR would be greatly improved with some mocap gloves and arm sleeves (or something similar to a Microsoft Kinect), to at least come close to doing something useful better than without it.
Doing business in Europe is already challenging. The problem here is that exports are a small proportion of total national income yet 100% of the economy has to operate using the same rules. Even your local hairdresser. I'm not saying they're wrong, just that it seems to me that relieving the voters of their democracy and 1,000 years of Common Law tradition seems like quite a high price to pay. And even then people like Dyson were pro-Leave. He knows his business growth is in the rest of the world and that the EU screws manufacturers like him with regulation to protect his competitors in France and Germany.
The EU is a protectionist racket that doesn't benefit the UK, and people are talking about it like it's some kind of global free-trading hub.
I have no idea why people are worried about the extreme right. The extreme left is the bigger danger. After all, they're responsible for this mess in the first place.
We don't need to be in the EU. We're a member of the WTO. So are all the countries of the EU and so is the EU itself. Under WTO rules we automatically have access to EU markets. They just won't be tariff free. It'll put pressure on UK businesses to cut costs and invest in increasing productivity. The fact is the Germans don't want their car makers, where the UK is their biggest market, to have a 10% tariff so either they'll make stuff in the UK to sell to that market (investment for the UK) or they'll agree to a mutual reduction in tariff barriers.
Apart from anti-dumping tariffs are fundamentally self-harming.
Banks won't "relocate to Frankfurt", no. The EU is what, 15% of global GDP? London is a world financial centre. Worst case the banks open subsidiaries on the continent. The major bulk of their business will still take place in London and indeed many corporates in the EU will raise finance in the UK at least to avoid the idiotic banking rules the EU is sure to impose on them.
The investment isn't really shut down. Once it's up and running the economic forces are towards greater efficiency of costs and innovation in methods. E.g. Saudi has tried to destroy the US shale industry by its own overproduction (relative to the price it wants). It has so far failed and is rapidly burning through its cash reserves. The problem for Saudi is it's so quick and easy to get a shale well up and running, compared to an oil field. The capital investment isn't all that huge.
When fossil fuels start to run out the price increases. As the price increases alternative energy sources become viable and evil corporations looking to make a profit start to invest in developing them.
The current model (capitalism) has already solved the problem, therefore.
he managed to find a place to migrate better than their shithole of a country.
Sure, a place where journalists investigating corrupt politicians are regularly murdered. It's so common there's even a Wiki page for it. Not so many whistleblowers East of the Dnieper, then.
So you know, why don't you go and get your fucking shoe shine box?
The USA and UK are gathering intelligence for counter-terrorism? Who the fuck knew? We had listening stations in the UK throughout the Cold War, and before. We still have them now. The massive prick is holed up in Russia. He really needs to get a sense of perspective.

RT is the KGB, by another name. Don't kid yourself.
"augmented reality", or as we called it 10 years ago when we did it with a camera we manufactured, "blending two images together".

+1.
Somebody mod this anon up. That's precisely what I was thinking and I'm never wrong.
Haha.
Very good!

Well spotted.

Why is this guy marked down as a troll? He speaks the truth. Khan is a useless second-rater.

It's an algorithm. The more in demand the product is, the higher the price.

Are you serious? Intelligence Agencies are by definition not obeying country X's laws. Country X has a law against spying.
For fuck's sake what is wrong with you people? It's almost like you're being deliberately fucking stupid.
Anonymous Paranoid acting tough on the internet. Shocking.
You actually think the crazy uncles refused to join the Euro, the sane uncles joined it? You know Spain, Greece, Italy?
We can and should repeal it, and replace it with our own.
The U.S. revoked Snowden's passport the day before he left.
What is wrong with your brain?
The European Convention on Human Rights is The Council of Europe, not the European Union.
