I’d strap a box jellyfish to my head if it meant I would actually feel like I’m inside an Elder Scrolls game.

Thing is: until and unless science finds a way to push visual information into the brain while bypassing the eyes (which would also be the end of blindness as a thing), VR will have to put stuff into the eyeballs, and block out outside info. Something like this or smaller maybe the best we could hope for (swimmers…

Yeah, and I like gross shit. Yuck, I’m ill. Had to stop after 2.

10 years ago I was taken to a hostess bar in Kabukicho by a local colleague. His English was only so-so, and he said something about going to a place "with girls". I told him, "No thank you - I'm a married guy." And he said, "Don't worry."

I didn't watch the video - what does Ric Okasek of the Cars have to say on this subject?

Same thing here - only I was 24. Was given a 485sx/25 with 4MB. Kept upgrading it. First with sound/dc room, then RAM, then a 486dx/50, then more RAM.

The amount of time spent on graphics supersedes gameplay mechanics

It's universally true that men are more desperate than women when it comes to dating. A decent-looking guy has to work harder than a decent-looking woman. That's just the nature of things. So it stands to reason that it applies not just to the 8's and 9's, but also the 3's and 2's.

Dude - we should totally start up a thing Bromatch.com. Endless avenues for finding women, none for finding new bro's to hang out with. Instead of short messages, just send URLs of "shit you find funny"

I mean this in all sincerity, and maybe you've already tried this. Why not ask an ugly, successful woman out?

late-30's/40's dating is a piece of cake. Most of those life pressures are off the table. Just a couple of people, either with kids already or no interest in having any, getting together when they have free time. Usually both parties have their lives together to some extent, and can't remember the last time they slept…

I agree - a midday coffee date has no built-in sense of excitement. No possibilities. It's basically "Is this guy/girl ugly in person? Is he/she a weirdo?"

You can venture off to parties and barbecues.

I'm really not sure what I'm looking for

Admittedly I'm an outsider, but I know exactly what you mean.

I think I've seen a little of it over the years. When I traveled there a few times in the early aughts (01-03) it was all dark suits all the time (it seemed nuts to be in an IT / server farm environment and see everyone dressed like CEO's). Came back in the teens (11-14) and saw way fewer suits and even fewer ties. …

I've spent a lot of time in Tokyo on Business & talked to a number of colleagues about work/life. (not that I was grilling them about it - it's just a common topic of conversation among colleagues the world over). What I gathered is that, while there are certainly loads of people putting in crazy hours every day, it…

On an individual level, and especially among young people, there is not so much outright racism/xenophobia. And culturally, they are outwardly outstanding hosts. Plus, they travel abroad like crazy. There is, however, deep ingrained stuff - maybe even a bit of old timey "uber alles"-type superiority. It's…

Having (jealously) watched videos of people using the DK2, the number one complaint they have is of frame rate. when it's steady 75FPS, they're loving it, almost regardless of the graphical beauty. When it's really well rendered, but drops frames, it's stinky. You rarely hear complaints of lack of photorealism -…

Think about PC games - they use sliders to accommodate a wide variety of systems. PS4 would only have to have two settings: Standard and VR. The VR setting will automatically drop models/textures/draw distance/post-processing effects in order to handle the requirements of the headset, and maintain a rocksteady…
