What do you think about VR? Have you ever used a VR headset? Are you interested in buying one? My Oculus Username is Monoid. Add me if you like |

i started with an oculus development kit. having a vive and oculus go right now. next order will be a quest and a vr ready laptop. but vr is poo |
||||||||

unity 3d |

my left eye is blind now (though not as gruesomely as moomintroll's) so i guess it wouldn't work on me. but lemme be captain obvious... what's it like to wank in VR? or are you too busy flying through skyscapes n psychedelic dreamworlds n stuff to crack one off? |
||||||||

never really did that, honestly i once watched a bad striptease recorded in 360 and i didn't really look at the girl. i mostly looked at the book collection of the apartment it was recorded it, while she was stripping behind my back |

hah, i'm with ya. i just thought monoid + vr = porn. maybe my zilty maths is off |
||||||||

i guess its much crazier, now. i did that with the oculus dev kit in 2014, that you could still connect to a laptop one thing that was weird was looking at 3d scans of naked people. we found photogrammetric scans of two guys and two girls. standing behind them, looking over their shoulders gave me a sense of someone actually being there. and that was before head position tracking |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
so with position tracking, you would also have a fun experience belb |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
even without it, just being able to turn your head and look around |
||||||||

the whole thing just seems like a pain in the arse. the content isn't there yet, and i don't think the technology would work on cyclops mofos like me. i listen to music and podcasts / audiobooks more than watch tv and film anyway. thumbs down |

oh hang on lemme read that link, we're posting at the same time |

if you didn't try it, you won't miss out too much these days. its still in a weird phase, where the content is mainly bleak compared to the history of film, its still in brothers lumiere phase, where its mostly a new attraction for many people and tech heads |
||||||||

As far as I can tell it hasn't changed significantly since the 90s except for polygon count. Maybe it will always be bleak. |
||||||||
|

well, there are a few significant changes vr systems went from being super expensive, exotic projects hidden in labs or shown on a few conventions, to being quite affordable with the cheapest option being the ps4 vr right now another change is the internet, which is a big chance for vr/ar/mr. so, instead of stupid concepts of people going to the cinema and everyone is wearing head glasses, people go sit at home and wear head glasses and suddenly sit together in a virtual cinema in the future there will be theatre plays and performances happening in vr and you can join them live and actually be able to interact with a bodily interface it just starts getting interesting because it becomes affordable and then pours into our "normal society". when you look back in history at the release of the first consumer market hand camera from sony, people suddenly had a chance to record themselves and experiment with their tv screen. nam june paik was one of the pioneers of media art and he bought the first hand camera and immediately started getting weird with it. in order to make an impact in society and form an artistic language, more people need to have access to the technology (though consumer products) and then will create a language in order to communicate artistically though that medium. this will happen in the next years. i want to be part of that, thats why im wading through the shit right now |

I have a vive, had an oculus Dec.kit before that. Don't use it a lot now I'm not making anything for it, when it's works it's phenomenal though. I have a laptop with a 1070 in it which handles most stuff well enough. Tried porn with it and a couple were really good and immersive. Hi early my two favourite things to do have been to use the Google earth app and watch movies on a 100m screen |

Dev kit Really |

in the future there will be theatre plays and performances happening in vr and you can join them live and actually be able to interact with a bodily interface look forward to doigb a speedrun on death of a salesman, but what happens when the salesman gets an extra life?? 🤔 |

Vr porn, well, it gets kinda boring after a while, because you are eithdr looking on the chests of the women, or on their backs. Not much variation there. VR porn is not the future of sex |

i'm just reading consider phlebas by iain m banks... it's set in a far-off future with new species, body modifications and new sexual enhancements. special supertesticles and orgasms that last for hours. sounds better than digital doggystyle if you ask me |

I don't like it. My brother worked for a top firm using VR tech. He promoted Oculus a long while before it started becoming anything. I think its fantastic technology that will be abused to no benefit, like every scientific advacement of humanity. |

ive played on my mates a bit, its all a bit gimmicky still, the only thing id like to try it on is space games like elite |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Elite is dope, absolutely needs a proper flight controller in VR though, impossible to keep track of keyboard |
||||||||
|
|

|

that sounds like a novel i would read and from the description like it was not too far off richard morgan´s altered carbon or parts of chasm city by alastair reynolds. just love it when sci fi gets frisky. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
as for vr porn. i liked the experience, but it didnt make me wanna go back to it. theres still hope for vr in gaming though. havent tried that since i dont spend 1000 bucks on a maybe, let the spoiled kids push the technology. |

|
also when is xltronic vr coming out? |
||||||||
|
|

seriously think about it: handful of avatar sprites hiding inside an album art wallpaper maze... |

I think this picture is bullshit. VR is about human connection. So i was using 'Wander' a few days ago, the VR application that lets you view 360 degree photos of foreign places. Today i was talking to some of my work mates about their holidays plans. Boring small talk you might think. But actually, to my surprise they planed to go to diffrent places in the real world i was visiting in VR a few days before. Tho i never been there, i could share their excitment of going there. That was like my real life VR moment |
